    All I can say is I hope this story isn't true at all. If it is Tom Cruise is almost as weird as Jacko.

    This is from the The Mirror from the UK.

    EXCLUSIVE: TOM CHEWS
    Mission Impossible star Cruise vows to eat placenta after birth
    By Patrick Mulchrone

    TOM Cruise yesterday revealed his latest bizarre mission..to eat his new baby's placenta.

    Cruise vowed he would tuck in straight after girlfriend Katie Holmes gives birth, saying he thought it would be "very nutritious".

    The Mission Impossible star, 43, said: "I'm gonna eat the placenta. I thought that would be good. Very nutritious. I'm gonna eat the cord and the placenta right there." It is the latest in a series of increasingly strange outbursts from Cruise in the run-up to the birth.

    He has claimed the baby, due any day, will be delivered in total silence.

    The Top Gun star also insisted he "sensed" fiancŽe Katie was pregnant before she told him.

    And he has blurted out details of the couple's sex life, saying: "It's spectacular."

    The actor, who recently also claimed he has the power to cure drug addicts, has even been carrying out his own medical scans on the fetus after buying himself an ultrasound machine.

    Silent birth is one of the rules of the cult of Scientology, which Cruise is devoted to.

    The cult - founded by the late sci-fi writer L Ron Hubbard - claims that 75 million years ago aliens came to earth and their spirits now infest our bodies.

    Cruise told GQ magazine Hubbard had discovered making a noise had a "negative spiritual effect" on someone giving birth. He insisted that 27-year-old Katie would be allowed to scream, adding cryptically: "It is really about respecting the woman. It's not about her screaming.

    "And scientifically it is proven. Now there are medical research papers that say when a woman's giving birth everyone should be quiet."

    Cruise also revealed he and Katie have been preparing for the birth by holding classes at their Beverly Hills home.

    He said: "We've been studying what a woman goes through. What happens to her body. It's just kind of becoming this fun game of learning."

    Cruise said his sex life with Batman Begins star Katie had made him realise one-night stands were "horrible".

    He added: "Great sex is a by-product for me of a great relationship, where you have communication. It's an extension of that. If you're not in good communication with your partner, it sucks."

    Cruise, who has two adopted children with ex-wife Nicole Kidman, will not be the first star to make a meal out of his baby's placenta.

    Rod Stewart and girlfriend Penny Lancaster took home their baby's placenta, sprinkled it with tee tree oil and buried it in the garden.

    In 1998, Channel 4 chef Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall fried a placenta with shallots and garlic and served it up to 20 guests, including the baby's mum and dad.

    TV watchdogs later criticised the show, branding it "disagreeable".

    But placenta-eating is considered normal in some cultures. Various recipes include one for placenta lasagne. Some say eating it helps avoid post-natal depression.

    I've got to think that the placenta-eating thing is incorrect.

    I think what we've been getting from TC these last couple years is the result of his thoughts no longer being filtered through well-trained PR personnel. Not everything he says is totally crazy, it's just that poor choices of words in the context of everything else he does just makes his comments sound even more irrational. A few years ago, he probably would have said that our country has become too dependent on pharmaceuticals. Well, DUH! But left on his own, it comes out as "I know how to cure people. Drugs don't do anything. Psychology is a joke." Or whatever he said exactly.

    actually Sky News in England is also reporting the placenta eating comments. It says it was taken directly from a GQ article that should be released soon.

    I don't know what prompted Cruise to get up on his soap box all of a sudden. You never heard any of this crap from him a couple of years ago. He believes that he and Scientology has all of the answers, and everybody needs to hear them. Anybody who has a different opinion is wrong, plain and simple.

    He is coming across as a complete idiot, IMO.

    Well, you're right. It's a terrific irony that he thinks he's so knowledgable about everything, so he dumped his publicists and started just spouting off his mouth. Now, everyone sees what a self-righteous boob he really is.

    I'm glad that Tommy Boy is acting crazy again. That just helped revive this thread and brought post #44 to my attention. A classic!
