Watch out, Katie

I can't believe I am actually giving Tom Cruise the honor of two posts, but I just thought this was kinda funny...

Cruise was on a walkabout talking to some of the 5,000 fans who packed into Leicester Square yesterday for the star-studded premiere of War of the Worlds. He was accompanied by his new fiancee, actress Katie Holmes.

As he answered questions from journalists, a bogus reporter, wearing a white and green t-shirt, stuck out a joke microphone and used it to squirt water into Cruise's face.

The star struggled to maintain his composure and rounded on the man, saying: "Why would you do that ... why would you do that ... why would you do that?"

As the prankster offered a barely audible excuse, Cruise said: "Do you like thinking less of people, is that it?"

After an uncomfortable silence the joker went to walk away but Cruise said: "Don't run away."

He told his assailant: "That's incredibly rude. I'm here giving you an interview and you do that ... it's incredibly rude."

Cruise then said forcibly: "You're a jerk ... jerk ... you're a jerk."

Haha, whoa, chill out, Cruise. Apparently the "assailant" was working for a British comedy show on Channel 4. Katie, your man may be famous for his smile, but he sure can't take a joke.
