Cruise drenched at UK premiere

[Jason]

Four men have been arrested and bailed for allegedly drenching Tom Cruise with water at the London premiere of his new film.

Hollywood star Cruise was furious after the prank which is understood to have been carried out by a freelance film crew working on a new Channel 4 comedy.

He was speaking to journalists at the Leicester Square premiere of Steven Spielberg's War Of The Worlds when a man with a fake microphone squirted water in his face and over his jacket.

i thought it was hilarious.
he got them arrested though on an assault charge they were in jail overnight which i think was a bit extreme.
not a tom cruise fan personally

I saw what they did on Sky news and it was not funny in my view, as TC was going around to any one and talking to them,he was shocked because unlike some Stars he will take time to talk to fans etc,and in future he justs strutts right past people I won't blame him!

I'm not a fan of TC but I like how he turned the situation around and made the 'interviewer' look a prat. Good job it wasn't Russell Crowe!
I thought that kind of humour went out with the Keystone cops? One bit of tripe telly that won't be shown now...

Why 4 got arrested I don't know as only 1 did the deed.

either way he shouldn't have done it, esp to someone who comes & gives them an interview. Channel 4 seem to think that they can get away with anything in the name of TV.

Now if he had just been at it with his fiancée then maybe he needed a bucket of water but he hadn't & didn't deserve the soaking.

Released on bail.
The four are due to report back to police on July 4 and could be charged with assault.

Why wasn't it the one who squirted him just arrested.
Anyway,channel 4 have apologised.

I would not have been happy if it had happened to me. Tom did right, maybe the morons will think next time they try to pull a stunt like that again.
