Tom’s a ‘good egg’

LONDON:

George Clooney says Tom Cruise is a “good egg”.

The actor thinks Tom, who has been ridiculed for following bizarre sci-fi cult religion Scientology, will be less of a joke if he can learn to laugh at himself. He said, “I talked to Tom the other day, and he’s a good egg. There’s nothing self-serving about what he’s saying. He has to turn it into a way to make fun of himself.”

George also revealed he has mastered the skill of disguising his annoyance with a sense of humour. He told Time magazine, “I don’t talk about my personal life. People say they won’t and then they do. And even when the tabloids say really bad things and it p****s you off and you know it’s not true, you have to at least publicly have a sense of humour about it. That’s how you have to deal with it.” — Agencies
