Here is the Tom and Penelope picture from People Magazine. Enjoy!

Tom leaves Taranaki

Tom is leaving his fan club in Taranaki
Tom Cruise will be backing out the Lear jet today and heading home, leaving behind a rather large fan club – pretty much the entire population of Taranaki.
After 17 weeks filming The Last Samurai in and around New Plymouth the actor has won the people over and helped inject millions of dollars into the local economy. New Plymouth Mayor Peter Tennent has vowed to organise a parade for the movie premiere in January.

Cruise, the highest paid actor in Hollywood, has made an impact with small but significant gestures – finding a little girl’s horse, stopping to help a family change their tyre. He donated $1500 to an anti-drugs group and $7000 to a school.
New Plymouth bar manager Mark Louis said about 35 per cent of his weekend custom had been Samurai cast and crew. “They were great people, a real pleasure to serve. We are really going to miss them.

Also, Tons of new pictures of the location of The Last Samurai.
Speaking of The Last Samurai, it’s getting some nice oscar buzz. Read here and Here and one more

And I really hope that none of you are forgetting to VOTE!! for Minority Report as the “best action sequence” for the MTV movie awards.

And lastly, here is a new picture of Tom and Penelope in NZ from Hola Magazine. It also appears in People Magazine, so I will try to scan the larger size.

Cruise And Kidman: Friends Reunited
Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman are ditching their differences following their shock divorce two years ago – by appearing together in hit TV comedy Friends.

The pair, who have little contact following their split and Cruise’s subsequent relationship with his Vanilla Sky co-star Penelope Cruz, will star together in an upcoming episode of the American show – although TV bosses have decreed that their roles should be filmed separately.

Kidman explained to a friend, “I usually wouldn’t do TV, but this I couldn’t pass up.”

This one is more about Penelope.., but oh, well…
Penelope Cruz Files Defamation Lawsuit

HOLLYWOOD (Zap2it.com) – Penelope Cruz appears to have caught the lawsuit bug from her boyfriend, Tom Cruise. The actress’ lawyers announced Tuesday (April 8) that she is suing an Australian magazine for defamation.

The Spanish actress filed a defamation suit against the women’s magazine New Idea in the New South Wales Supreme Court claiming that a magazine article about her relationship with her “Vanilla Sky”co-star makes a number of “false and defamatory” statements about her. The story said that she cheated on her boyfriend.

Cruz’s lawyers claim Cruz first asked the magazine for a retraction, but when it didn’t comply, they decided to seek damages. Her lawyers said, “The article is almost entirely fictitious.”

“Ms. Cruz seeks substantial damages and is confident that the legal proceedings will vindicate her reputation,” said her legal firm, Gadens Laywers, in a statement.

Cruz, 28, has made headlines in Australia ever since she started dating Cruse, after his breakup from actress Nicole Kidman.

The case is scheduled to appear before the court May 30.

One of Hollywood’s most powerful actors, Cruise is well known for his willingness to defend his reputation in court. Earlier this year, he won a $10 million court award against Chad Slater, a former gay porn star who claimed he had been the actor’s lover. In 1998, Cruise and then-wife Kidman successfully sued a British tabloid magazine, which alleged their marriage was a sham, designed to disguise Cruise’s alleged homosexuality. They were awarded six-figure settlements.

One more about Friends:
TOM AND NICOLE REUNITED

Nicole Kidman and Tom Cruise are getting back together again, but only in the hit TV show Friends.

They are due to guest star in the series, according to reports.

But programme bosses are apparently keen defuse any tension between the former married couple after their acrimonius divorce two years ago.

The two will film their respective roles separately, according to the Daily Star.

“I usually wouldn’t do TV, but this I couldn’t pass up,” the newspaper quoted Nicole as saying.

Tom and Nicole would follow a string of stars who have appeared in the comedy sitcom, including Brad Pitt, Elle Macpherson and Reese Witherspoon.

And guess this one what is it about? FRIENDS!
Tom and Nic back together
Forever Friends

You never thought it could happen, but Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman are getting back together – to appear in Friends. Two years after their acrimonious divorce, the Hollywood couple are attempting to the past behind them. Friends of the couple will be hoping the cameo in the popular sitcom will go some way to improving relations between them. While producers have been reassured that they are on friendlier terms these days, they have still decided that Tom and Nic will film their roles separately, for fear of a punch-up. Kidman reportedly told friends, ‘I usually wouldn’t do TV, but this I couldn’t pass up.’ Although Cruise and Kidman have been in touch with each other – Tom rang his ex to congratulate her on winning this year’s Best Actress Oscar – they haven’t met in the flesh for some while. The next scheduled meeting of the two actors will be at the Cannes Film Festival, when Kidman may also get the opportunity to rub shoulders with her replacement, Penelope Cruz.

Hey guys

Sorry for the lack of updates from me. I’ve been really busy with college. I got a bunch of cool news from Chantal, including a possible role in FRIENDS with Nicole! Yes…, I’ll post the articles tomorrow…

Tom Cruise

Yesterday I posted The Edge’s experience when they met Tom. Here is a more detailed descrition. This is how JAY JAY described her experience:

“You’ll NEVER guess what I did yesterday ??? You know how Tom Cruise is in New Plymouth filming his new movie ‘The Last Samurai’? Well, WE MET HIM !!! (Jase, Dom, Becs and me). In February he called our show and spoke to us for 18 minutes, after we offered $5000 to anyone who could get him to call us. He called himself and asked us to raise our bounty to $7000 and together we gave $14 000 to Urenui school to build a sun shade for the kids.
Then, last month, we organised a huge human banner with the people of Taranaki dressed in black, spelling out the words TOMINAKI on the ground. The Daily News took the photo, and Tom saw it in the paper!!
Dom emailed Tom’s “people” in LA to ask where to send the pic and they suggested we deliver it to Tom in person. So, we were given directions to the secret location of the Samurai set and we went and saw Tom filming for an hour. It was so surreal … and THEN, he came over and talked to us for half an hour ! We gave him presents (a few NZ music Cds, gifts listeners had sent us, and the Tominaki picture) and he was STOKED !! He almost cried !!
We weren’t allowed to take photos, or get autographs, but his photographer took some pics and Tom will send them to us. We then went and had lunch with all the stars of the movie and then Tom invited us back to his trailer to watch the promo for the movie !!
His trailer was amazing. A big plasma screen tv, surrounded by framed photos of him and Penelope, and him and his kids. He LOVES his family.
It was the most incredible day of my life and I still can’t believe it happened.
He kissed and hugged me THREE times !!! I never wanna wash again !!
He’s the most divine man. So enchanting and mesmerising. He is so genuine and sincere, and I can see why no-one has a bad word to say about him.
Tom Cruise, I LOVE YOU !!
JAY-JAY XOX”.

Well we already know how great Tom is!

Here’s the source. Thanks to the wonderful bettyblue!

TOMINAKI

The Morning Madhouse went to Taranaki to organise (with your awesome help!) a wee going away pressie for a Mr Tom Cruise!
Thousands of people gathered at the Bowl of Brooklands on a sunny Sunday afternoon, and lined themselves up to spell out the word T.O.M.I.N.A.K.I which was then photographed!
On Thursday Jase, Jay Jay and Dom were invited onto the set of The Last Samurai in Taranaki to present Tom with the photo.
He was deeply moved by the gift, saying “This is so special. I can’t believe you did this for me. This is going on the wall in my office when I get back home”
The Madhouse got their own photo taken with Tom, and one of him holding the Tominaki photo”

I posted the TOMINAKI picture a week ago, scroll down to see it.

Here’s more
“And finally, in case you haven’t heard, Jase, Dom and I were lucky enough to meet Tom Cruise yesterday!! We don’t mean to brag because we have NO proof except for a photo he promised he will send, but I do have to say, especially for you girls, that he is the most incredibly magnetic person. So sincere and charming. His eyes twinkle and his smile is so warm and real. We were invited onto the set of The Last Samurai to present to him the TOMINAKI photo, we had lunch there and Tom even invited us back to his trailer to see the movie promo. It was most unbelievable day, and after meeting him, we are now definitely his number one fans. Oh, and did I mention that he kissed me THREE times????”

And in awards news, Minority Report has been nominated for the “Hugo Award for Best Dramatic Interpretation,” which will be handed out in Toronto on August 30.

Penelope will be joined by Tom to open the festival with her movie called “FANFAN”. Tom’s ex, Nicole Kidman is also attending.

Tom Cruise

Fans got a chance to see Tom Cruise go through his paces with filming in New Plymouth’s Pukekura Park.

Cruise arrived at the park’s cricket ground by helicopter, with the film’s other big names.
When action was called, loud gunfire sounded around the park, with Cruise being heard saying, “go on, shoot me”.
Just then, as filming was in full-swing, the carillon on Marsland Hill chimed out its two o’clock tune, which promptly stopped the filming, but had Cruise and the rest of the cast and crew chuckling with amusement. The filming back at the park is believed to have been to re-shoot some scenes. As well as the film’s leading stars being on set, dozens of Japanese men in black uniforms and hats sat on the terraces waiting for their cue for action.
As word of the filming spread, dozens of people gathered at Pukekura Park’s main gate and at other vantage points, trying to get a glimpse of the action. Cruise was back at work after spending the weekend sightseeing in Queenstown, with partner Penelope Cruz.
