Cruise invited Oprah Winfrey to his Telluride, Colorado home for a show that aired in America on Friday and the actor returned to the TV talk show host’s Chicago, Illinois studio for a chat that aired on Monday.
Surrounded by movie billboards, advertising the blockbusters from his 25 years-plus as a film star, Cruise was feted by costars and Hollywood pals like Dustin Hoffman, Will Smith and Renee Zellweger as he celebrated his career.
Smith revealed: “There’s not a single piece of press… a single image in the 25 years of his career that gets anywhere near capturing who he is.” And his Collateral co-stars Jada Pinkett-Smith and Jamie Foxx also offered tributes. Smith cooed: “Nothing that he’s done professionally holds a candle to who he is as a human being.”
Cruise’s Jerry Maguire co-star Zellweger recalled her famous film line, ‘You had me at hello,’ for her tribute: “I didn’t need to conjure motivation to say that line… He’s just kinda special.”
There was even a video nod from Cruise’s new pal, Victoria Beckham, who revealed she and husband David went to see Jerry Maguire on their first date. Read more about their congo tales here.
