Paramount Studios takes a stand

Good for them. They decided not to continue their 14 year relationship with Tom Cruise. Paramount basically said the behaviour he is expressing out in public and on talk shows, was not becoming of someone they wanted in their movies. Hopefully, some more of the self made gods in Hollywood will sit up and pay attention now.

Yeah I know what you're saying, but another studio will be more than happy to pick up his stupid $20 million a movie deal.

Does this mean Paramount will stop producing movies with swearing, sex, and bodily function jokes and scenes? I think not.

You can be a nut, just not a religious nut because anything that comes close to being moral they are not interested in.

imo, It was all about the money and him being on the downside of his career, like signing a Rolling Stone member up for a sneaker endorsement when they would be better off for a vitamin pill or life insurance.

Yeah. . . but even doggies need lovin'!!!

(Heck. . . . I'd feed her a dog biscuit and a bowl of water. She ain't THAT bad!!)

Maybe she and I could sit under the stars and bark at the moon, together!

His first wife (Mimi Rogers) was a women; not a "little girl" like his current squeeze.

I can't beleive that they didn't drop him earlier. After his little rant on the Today show, he should've been shot.

I believe that's what is being implied. However, I really don't think she's really a dog.

Mis-guided is more like it.

I think she saw 'stars' and was influenced by his money and promises.

From what I remember, he was telling Matt Lauer of the Today Show that Brooke Shields didn't need to take anti-depression drugs for her post partum depression; and that he was an expert in this field, through Scientology.

He seemed to get a bit upset when Matt Lauer somewhat challenged him on this Scientology crap.

Katie Holmes is not a dog. Just like 00BlueOvalRanger posted, a bit misguided.

Maybe Penelope Cruz figured out what a wacko he may be.

Mimi Rogers did introduced him to Scientology.

Her BAD.
