Tom Cruise Breaks Down, Speaks Out About Travolta Tragedy

Tom Cruise tomkat2103108_18_X17.jpg While taping Friday's episode of The View in NYC this morning, Tom Cruise was barely able keep it together when he talked about the passing of BFF John Travolta's 16-year-old son Jett.

Tom told the ladies, "It's horrific. Both of them doting parents, just wonderful people...it's just...I remember Jett when he was born. I saw him when he was a few months old and John just adored him," he continued. "It's something I don't have the words..."

As Tom struggled to maintain his composure, co-host Barbara Walters quickly changed the subject, and she asked the "Valkyrie" star if he had any response to the critics who suggested that the Travolta's Scientologist background played a role in their son's death. Tom responded, "Not true. It's actually the opposite," and then he explained that followers are actually encouraged to seek medical attention when ailing.

The episode airs tomorrow morning, and we'll def be watching to see what else Mr. Cruise has to say!

Tom is not struggling to compose himself - he's struggling to find a vocabulary.

Rigghhtt...and in that Scieno video that came out last year, didn't he claim that when driving by an accident and "as a Scientologist you know you are the only one that can help" ?Hmmmmm... really? Doing what, touch assists? Then that crazy Jenna (have you raped a baby?) Elfman stating that Aids is only a state of mind. Really? So where does that leave cancer, epilepsy, or even the flu???

Tom, you loony toon, might I suggest that you learn how to speak in COMPLETE sentences!

Brabara Walters needs to get some class, first of all asking or trying to blame the church about Scientology at a time like this is completly disrespectful to the Travolta family. You should let the fammily grieve in peace and not try to find fault in this.
Ms. Walters you should be ashamed of yourself.

I agree with 1:49. He didn't seem very sincere with what words he did say!!! My heart and prayers go out to the Travolta family!

The idiot @ 3:23 who claims Suri is autistic is obviously the same fool that says Jayden is also. Maybe THIS person suffers from M.R.

Maybe your parents, or your teachers or whomever should have told you not to let the public know you're an idiot!

I'm sick of seeing on the entertainment news, that Tom could hardly keep his composure. I watched it. He cannot even put two words together in a coherent manner. He was thinking too hard about what he was going to say and said nothing. I didn't get any shred of sincerity out of what he said (or didn't say).

Barbara Walters getting class...??!! You havn't seen the View have you? Elizabeth Hassleback is the only person on that show that has any class.

Tom acting as usual. Is this guy ever real?

The entire entertainment industry is full of crap. Phoniness and self -congratulatory baloney day in, day out. It's probably a good thing there are these blogs, because I'm thinking that the next industry to need a bail-out will be the entertainment industry. I'm just about done enjoying anything that comes out of these people or their mouths.
