Tom Cruise Settles Score with Television Host

October 27, 2008

Tom Cruise bestowed Friars Club with his presence to roast the Today Show show host Matt Lauer.  From what I make of it, wierdoes like him have the worse sense of intentional humor.

The superstar… launched into a slide show of PhotoShopped pics of him and Matt jet skiing, barbecuing and sitting together on the couch.

“When we can’t get together, we’ll talk on the phone two, three, four times a day and say, ‘Matt are you watching this?’ And he’ll say, ‘yeah.’ And we’ll sit there.”

“In front of all these people, I just want you to know I can’t believe I flew all the way out here… Now lose my number, you glib putz.”

For his performance, I’m willing to give him a point or two.  I mean, when dealing with public speaking, and a bunch of old gents, people will laugh at anything.  And what did Matt Lauer have to say about all of this?

In rebuttal to Tom’s roasting, after the Oscar nominee exited, Matt said, “Come on, Tom… Stay. We can get a booster seat!” And when he realized Tom wasn’t returning, he added, “Oh, guess his spaceship has to leave.”

Tom: 2.  Lauer: 100.  The Cruise fails yet to realize wherever he goes, he’s a walking punchline.
