Yeah, right. Tom Cruise tells Oprah he’s happily married.
Tom Cruise returned to the Oprah Winfrey show on Friday and talked about his love for Katie Holmes, but this time he was denying marital problems instead of jumping on the couch to prove his passion for the young actress.
“That’s laughable to me,” Cruise said when Winfrey told him there was speculation that “what you and Katie have is not real.”
It was the first time Cruise appeared on the show since his couch-hopping stunt three years ago drew a flood of satire and ridicule.
“It was something that I just felt that way, and I feel that way about her. That’s just how I felt,” he said in the interview aired on Friday.
In other comments, Cruise:
-Recalled that he waxed the floor on his hands and knees so he could do a stocking-feet slide across the room in the famous “Risky Business” underwear dance scene.
-Said his comments about Shields “came out wrong,” they had been friends, he apologized, and “we’re better friends now.”
-His Scientology faith is about helping others and respecting their religious beliefs, and is the “exact opposite” to trying to impose that belief on others.
-”I believe in God. There’s no way you can be up here and believe there isn’t a God.”
-Said he has a “good, easy” relationship with ex-wife Nicole Kidman, and suggestions that he doesn’t let her see their children are “ridiculous … we share custody whenever.”
-Described Suri as “just magic, she’s joy, just joy.”
