SNARL of the week: TomCruise.com

I have a confession to make.

I used to be Tom Cruise’s #1 fan.

From Risky Business all the way to when he and Nicole Kidman split up. I sided with Nicole. And then Tom really went loco, which happens to the mentally ill when not medicated, especially males past the age of 35. He fired the professionals handling his P.R. and put his sister in place as his P.R. flack. And so the carefully controlled and constructed image of Tom Cruise as the All American Male, the consummate Movie Idol, fell apart.

And boy did it fall apart in a spectacular fashion.

First he jumped on Oprah’s couch and exhibited a need for lithium:

Then there was the whole morphing of Katie Holmes from normal girl next door who made it big and stayed in touch with her hometown crew into Stepford Wife, or, more accurately, Scientology wife.

Remember when Katie looked like this:

That was pre Tom.
These days, she looks like this:

She is 29 years old people! She looks at least 10 years older than she is since she’s been Mrs. Cruise.

And how could ANYONE forget the Scientology video:

Yeah, that’s 9 minutes of life we’ll never get back. Part of my brain goes numb whenever I see a clip from that Scientology video.

I dated an actor with bi polar disorder for 4 years– and Cruise’s behavior reminds me so much of my ex. The narcissism to think he can erase the past three years, three years in which we got to know what I believe is the REAL Tom Cruise, it’s incredible. He thinks so very highly of himself, doesn’t he? One might even say pathologically so.

And now we have TomCruise.com. A fan site for Tom Cruise, run by Tom Cruise. Because after all, who is Tom’s biggest fan if not Tom himself.

It certainly isn’t me anymore. Oh hell no.

Over at TomCruise.com Tom seeks to rewrite history and try and restore his Golden Boy image.

But what he’s really doing is making himself into an even bigger joke. For that and all the crimes listed above, TomCruise.com gets my SNARL of the week award.
