Is David On Cruise Control?

Posted on Thu Aug 2, 2007 12:07 PM PDT

David Beckham tomdavid.jpgDavid Beckham might not need anyone to tell him how to handle a soccer ball - but the American press corps is a different game entirely! After all, the footballer has a reputation back in Europe for being shy and reluctant around the press, relying instead on Victoria to keep the couple's profile high. Lucky for David, then, that he's got some friends with more than a little experience handling the press - like Tom Cruise!

News of the World is reporting that ever since coming to America, David's mannerisms around the media have been awfully reminiscent of Tom's - the wide-thrown arms, the emphatic gestures with the left hand, even the pocket handkerchief he's been wearing are all Tom trademarks! Might Tom simply be acting neighborly? Or could his lessons be part of an effort to win the Beckhams to the side of Scientology?



Hopefully in between all those sessions about pocket-squares and hand-positions, Tom found time to teach David the real difference between the UK and the US:

I'm no fan of the Beckhams, but I do not wish Scientology on them.

But with TomKat being their closest LA friends I think it is inevitable. I thought it was creepy for Tom to buy Posh & Becks the custom Bentley & Escalade. But I think it's really creepy that the Beckhams actually drive those Scieno-rides.

It's bad enough Tom turned Will Smith. I hope he doesn't turn David Beckham too.

Oh please, Victoria said many times they never bring up Scientology. Slow news day?

I have not seen any evidence since David moved to the US showing him 'doing a Tom Cruise' with over-the-top hand gestures and crap. It really is SLOW season...

Vicky has also said her boobs are only a 32B - do you believe that too?

Cruise is a little Hitler. If you work on one of his movies you will be invited to go to the Scientology tent ( there is nothing like this on any other movie set ) for a massage. The real purpose of the massage is not to make the day go easier, it's Tom's little Scientology Indoctrination Tent. Hello to all the little Scientologists monitoring this site. Freaks !!!

Will Smith is NOT into Scientology. I think he's Catholic, but I'm not sure. We've worked on two of his movies and he is one of the coolist guys in hollywood. He treats everyone with respect.

What went wrong on The X Factor today with Britney Spears?

Britney definitely had another meltdown. This is proof she's not ready to step back into the spotlight!
I think Britney may have overreacted to a bad audition, but it will be entertaining to watch later!
I think Simon Cowell planned this all along. Brit probably even rehearsed it!
