      I remember being home sick from work and waking up from a flu nap and having no idea of I was dreaming or this man was doing …this

      This is probably the first viral moment I remember. Truly iconic and insane.

      It spread like wildfire within hours of airing

      I’ve only just realised that the last scene in Scary Movie 4 was in reference to this lmao

      Wow, I have zero memory of Tom going backstage and dragging Katie Holmes’ ass to the stage.

      The War of the Worlds press tour changed Cruise’s career forever. This, the Pete Overton interview, and the Matt Lauer interview.

      This was not a good time for him

      How he grabs her and drags her from backstage 😳 ugh

      I remember thinking how weird and random the pairing was at the time

      I only saw the jump back then so I didn’t realize how unhinged he was throughout the rest of the interview until now..

      The way he grasps and pushes her out. Ugh. So controlling. Foreshadowing everything that came after.

      Listen ladies – if a twice married father of two ever tells you he has never felt this way before (Tom’s words, not mine), he is lying. It was all so disingenuous, which was so clear to me at the time.

      This was when society collectively recognized Tom Cruise was a fucking weirdo and nothing was ever the same lol

      For the life of me, I will never understand what Katie was thinking. If there had not already been sufficient red flags, this should have been the dealbreaker.

      There is so much creepy with this I cannot count.
      – the over 16 year age gap
      – the random jump
      – pressing his hands and weight against Oprah, twice
      – describing those actions as a “hug”
      – his lack of ability to utter anything coherent
      – his hands holding Katie’s arms tightly down and shoving her forward to the stage
      …

      This is cocaine use, right?
