With every clip that leaks online from his Medal of Valor acceptance video, Tom Cruise gets creepier and creepier. Here he rambles on about saving the rescue workers at ground zero after 9/11, and how he doesn't need to ask anyones permission, because scientologists are the real authorities. Being a scientologist is the only permission he needs. The only way he could look any crazier in this is if he had some heads on pikes in the background.
The Sun UK has more video today from the Scientology awards ceremony that presented Tom Cruise with the IAS Freedom Medal of Valor in 2006, and this one is infinitely creppier than the last one. It's all pretty terrifying and basically looks and sounds like a veiled threat against all the non-believers, topped off by Cruise saluting a portrait of L Ron Hubbard. You honestly expect the speech to end and then the wall opens up to reveal an army of killer robots with glowing red eyes.
A new book by biographer Andrew Morton (the same one who said Cruise is second in command in the church of scientology) says that after Tom Cruise dated Sofia Vergara and before he dated Katie Holmes, the person he really wanted to date was Jennifer Garner. Us.com says:
Morton writes that Cruise left messages on the Alias star's voice mail in 2004 asking "if she knew what freedom was," but his advances were rebuffed.
The book also claims Holmes signed a contract to commit to Scientology and that her father brokered a high-paying pre-nup.
There's actually an old story that, before he met Katie, Tom made a list of names of girls that would be good for his career. The list was Scarlett Johansson, Kate Bosworth and Katie Holmes. Some say Jessica Alba was on the list as well. Scarlett was actually cast in "Mission: Impossible III" but dropped out when it became clear Cruise was trying to convert/F her. He even brought her to the Scientology center in Los Angeles where he spoke to her for two hours about the cult, the revealed a secret room where a table full of high ranking scientologists had been waiting to have dinner with them. That was when Scarlett took off. Then Tom took out a crystal ball and shouted, "After her you fools, she's getting away!" Then he watched the chase in a big leather chair in front of a wall of monitors and tapped his fingers together. "Oh yes", sources claim he said. "My kitten she likes the pain."
Back in November, Katie Holmes ran the New York City Marathon, her first one, and now Us Weekly is reporting that she has signed up for her second, this time the famous Boston Marathon. Us says:
Holmes had placed 34,193rd among 39,085 entrants in the New York City marathon (26.2 miles in about 5 hours and 30 minutes) on Nov. 4, which means she didn't qualify by merit for the April 21st race in Boston.
Runners in the Boston Marathon must have specific qualifying times. For Holmes' age group, that would mean finishing a previous marathon in 3 hours and 40 minutes.
The actress "received an exemption," a marathon insider tells Us, because race organizers "occasionally give out 'charity entrances.'"
It's easy to make fun of Katie Holmes for a hundred different reasons, but at least she exercises and keeps her body looking hot, unlike that fatass Jennifer Love Hewitt, who seems to think running is only for when your car breaks down in the rain or if you’re being chases by zombies.

Friends of Tom Cruise like Jennifer Lopez and David Beckham and Will Smith say that, despite his affinity for scientology, he would never pressure them to join the infamous Hollywood cult. But today, the New York Daily News says Smith has done just that. Seemingly.
Will Smith has joined the ranks of Hollywood power players actively recruiting for the Church of Scientology.
Big stars traditionally distribute "wrap presents" to crew members after completing a film. His recent gift after wrapping next summer's comedy "Hancock" was a card good for a personality test at your local Scientology center.
Never mind that such tests are given free by the church anyway. The quiz is designed to convert people to the religion by identifying personality flaws that - surprise! - Scientology can fix right up for you.
Smith, who is best buddies with Scientology booster Tom Cruise, has never confirmed that he joined the church. But he told "Access Hollywood" last month: "I was introduced to it by Tom, and I'm a student of world religion. I was raised in a Baptist household. I went to a Catholic school, but the ideas of the Bible are 98% the same ideas of Scientology, 98% the same ideas of Hinduism and Buddhism."
I don't have a bible in front of me, but I'm pretty sure that's not true. I went to catholic school too and I remember very little about alien wars and evil galactic rulers. Or maybe that's why all the cool guys did so well in religion class, while I was getting a hand job in the library from their girlfriends. Golly, I really missed out.

A new book is claiming that longtime Scientologist Tom Cruise has risen in the ranks and is now second in command of the controversial religion, based on outer space warlords trapped in volcano prisons and dead aliens attaching themselves to human souls. Oh, and also, there’s this…
And author ANDREW MORTON says some followers have speculated that his daughter Suri may have been fathered using FROZEN SPERM from its founder L RON HUBBARD.
Mission: Impossible actor Tom has rubbished the book by Brit Morton, who wrote Princess Diana’s biography Her True Story.
Tom, 45, also denies claims that his ex NICOLE KIDMAN was told her sex secrets would be leaked if she criticised the “church”, and that he aims to convert pals DAVID and VICTORIA BECKHAM.
Morton interviewed high-ranking Scientologists, or Sea Orgs — led by the mysterious David Miscavige.
And Morton writes: “Some Sea Org fanatics wondered if the actress had been impregnated with Hubbard’s frozen sperm.
Scientology will do well with a keen mind like Tom Cruise in charge, even if he has been evasive about his role there in the past. I cornered him in an elevator one time and said, "Tom, what's the deal with you and scientology", and he said, "uhh, uhh", then turned his back to me. Then he turned around again with his finger under his nose so it looked like a moustache and said, "I'm not Tom Cruise". And then I said, "I'm pretty sure you are". Then he said "ring ring" out of the corner of his mouth, then put his thumb and his pinky to his ear and his mouth and said, "I'm sorry, I have to take this call". He said it was President Lincoln, but frankly I had my doubts.
