    Why does Tom Cruise… Believe in a crazy religion.

    • BULLY MAGUIRE

    • Will

      July 12, 2023 at 6:18 pm

      @BULLY MAGUIRE It’s the interest of the general public that scientology has held people captive and tortured them and tom cruise is ok with that

      You guys better be careful Tom and his Scientology bros will, find, YOU

      Well, there’s this concept called time…

    • Will

      July 12, 2023 at 6:17 pm

      Money and scientology

    Respect to this man and his commitment to the role.

    • Will

      July 12, 2023 at 6:19 pm

      He’s good at acting like he acts like scientology isn’t a horrid organization

    so handsome

    “Can tom cruise survive a Nuclear Bomb?”

    Tom: Yes, accually Ive survived to 35 nukes for this movie

    • ÆŁĮXÏR

      He’s the man. 🤷🏼‍♂️🤷🏼‍♂️🤷🏼‍♂️

    Legitimately insane person.

    • MusicOrGetMugged

      July 13, 2023 at 5:23 am

      He’s a chad no doubt. Cant imagine hang yourself outside of a plane that was taking off

    • Vinnie G

      July 13, 2023 at 2:52 pm

      Yes. Still a mighty impressive one as well

  14. Rob Vespa

    July 12, 2023 at 4:34 pm

    I’d like to believe that despite all the strange press over the years and his connection to a certain organization that Mr. Cruise is a decent human.

    • Will

      July 12, 2023 at 6:17 pm

      Like to believe but isn’t nobody involved with scientology is a good person

    • Andi Jacobsen

      July 12, 2023 at 6:32 pm

      Decent humans dont become a figurehead of dangerous vile sects.

    • Sam H.

      July 12, 2023 at 8:32 pm

      Nor do they support/ignore the abuse that goes on within this organization.

    • Leslie Speaker

      July 13, 2023 at 2:46 pm

      The two latter things are mutually exclusive. You can’t be a decent human being high up in an organisation that uses force labor and mind control to extract every last monetary and physical value out of their members for the benefit of the high ups in said organization.

    Why does Tom Cruise belong to Scientology?

    • John Werner

      July 12, 2023 at 5:26 pm

      Brain washing and blackmail

    • Robert fier

      July 12, 2023 at 5:50 pm

      He’s weird

    • smugandsmarmy

      July 13, 2023 at 4:25 am

      Because he’s a vapid, sad, empty shell of a man?

    • Rob Vespa

      July 13, 2023 at 3:23 pm

      I’ve wondered this, too. It doesn’t make sense. Then again, millions of people ascribe to religion.

    • N.A. Conen

      July 13, 2023 at 5:41 pm

      Because 1) they have dirt on him and if he leaves they’re going to out him and 2) they treat him like royalty.

    • Carlos C

      July 14, 2023 at 11:31 am

      The answer is simple. Becuase he can and wants to be.

    His mom had to have been creeped out when he was a kid

    Is this the real Tom Cruise or the deepfake? I don’t even know what’s real anymore.

  24. Hestnes

    July 13, 2023 at 3:00 am

    He started acting?

  25. Jamie_Dodger_

    July 13, 2023 at 4:01 am

    Why is Tom Cruise the second in command of a family destroying cult that no one talks about?

  26. Zero Cartwright

    July 13, 2023 at 7:43 am

    Nice!

  27. L A Green

    July 13, 2023 at 12:14 pm

    His movies are almost always nicely entertaining. There are few actors stil working today who can say that. Actually I can’t think of any working today who are consistently entertaining besides Tom.

    • Rob Vespa

      July 13, 2023 at 3:24 pm

      I agree with the first sentence. The remainder made me think that you need to see more (good) movies.

    • L A Green

      July 13, 2023 at 10:03 pm

      @Rob Vespa Like? I can think of two made in the last five years.

    • Lisa Rodriguez

      July 16, 2023 at 9:09 pm

      So… you pretty much only like action or romance/action movies?

  28. Anym

    July 13, 2023 at 1:42 pm

    scientology. don’t think we need to say more

  29. Leslie Speaker

    July 13, 2023 at 2:42 pm

    Hey Tom, I have another question for you: Why did you join Scientology?

  30. D E

    July 13, 2023 at 7:32 pm

    Tom, you’re very intelligent and enlightening 🎉😎❤️🥂

  31. Maverick

    July 15, 2023 at 9:09 pm

    “The thing I was most concerned about was the fuel.”

    Sure Tom, while hanging off a plane that’s taking off, I’m sure fuel was the biggest concern. Falling off is overrated anyway.

    Jokes aside, mad respect for this man.

  32. cynomyS

    July 17, 2023 at 6:09 am

    “How many safety guys do you go through in a year?”

  33. Sidharth M

    July 17, 2023 at 10:28 am

    Did Tom cruise…

    YES!!!!

  34. 시몬 김
