Ashton Kutcher, they ain't.
Sorry but those panksters are just idiots.
Cruise handled himself much better than most, including myself.
Put some ice on it Tom.
Candid camera.
Everywhere I turn (in the news) it's either Tom Cruise or Paris Hilton.
Who are they? What are they?
He's lucky it was just water and just a joke.
---The water squirting was not intended to cause offence and was very much in a spirit of fun.
We hope Tom Cruise will be able to see the joke in the spirit with which it was intended.---
I think he did. It was intended to make him look foolish, to get a laugh at his expense.
It is one thing to joke and prank amongst your friends. Pranks on strangers, even celebrities, is just lame.
I don't think much of Cruise, but I have to admit that I admire his restraint in this.
I'd have most likely ended up in jail.
Ha ha.
Say what you want about the actors of yore, but I never read about this happening to John Wayne, Errol Flynn or Robert Mitchum.
uh, someone squirted water in tom cruise's face in another country.
nothing to see here, folks. move along.
His vocabulary seems stuck on cruise control.
agreed. Hope he presses charges. I can't imagine if he would have kept his composure if they had sprayed Miss Holmes instead of him, though.
When asked to comment on the incident, fiancee Katie Holmes stated, "he's an amazing man. really amazing."
I agree completely. The news report says he "reacted angrily." As if he shouldn't!
No, he should say: "I'm a multi-millionaire world-famous actor, and I love it when unknown morons walk up to me and squirt me with water for no reason, while I am working. I hope more people do it, because I find it very clever, really. I enjoy it. I hope more people will take the liberty of approaching me and playing practical jokes on me. That's their right, after all. We celebrities are a public commodity; use us and abuse us as you wish."
Really.
It's not like everyone isn't already laughing out loud at him.
Talk about piling on.
