Cruise 'will eat baby's placenta'

Actor Tom Cruise has said he plans to eat the placenta of his new baby.

"I thought that would be good," he told GQ magazine. "Very nutritious. I'm gonna eat the cord and the placenta right there."

It is the latest in a series of unusual revelations by the 43-year-old about the child he is expecting with his fiancee, actress Katie Holmes.

The couple, who have been engaged since June 2005, plan to marry in late summer or early autumn, according to Cruise.

The Mission Impossible star has also claimed he knew Holmes, 27, was pregnant even before she told him.

Last week Cruise said on US television that Catholic-born Holmes has already joined him as a follower of the Church of Scientology.

'Silent birth'

In the GQ interview, Cruise defended the religion's doctrine that childbirth should be completed in silence.

"It's really about respecting the woman," he said. "It's not about her not screaming."

Cruise said earlier this month that their baby was due "any day now".

The baby will be the first for Holmes, while Cruise has two adopted children from his marriage to Nicole Kidman.

He did an interveiw with Diane Sawyer last week and said it was a joke taken out of context. He's not going to actually eat it. As for actually eating the placenta, there are cultures around the world that actually value it and do feed on it once a mother gives birth. It does actually happen

Just through watching him in interviews and choices he's made about certain things...I just think he's gone off the deep end.

I'll leave it at that - I don't agree with his religion at all either, but I don't want to get into a religious debate.

Besides that though, he's just changed into an entirely different person and he's very opinionated and doesn't hesitate to let others know who don't agree with him on certain things.

I also think he is truly mentally ill to even suggest that post partum depression is a non existent condition. MOFO, are you crazy? Perhaps if he and his brainwashed bride to be weren't faking it, he'd know that women generally have a decrease in their hormone levels after birth. Inferences to the contrary and denying the symptoms and chemical alterations of depression while advocating a vitamin regime is ridiculous.

His "I'm right and you're GLIB" mentality is nerve wracking. I shudder to think of how many women were afraid to access help because this man declared himself to be more aware of brain activity and function and disuaded them from seeking help. He made a mockery of a very sensitive subject and derided the use of medicine in favor to prop Scientology doctrine that is more tantamount to a cult. Other celebs I respect such as John Travolta and Lisa marie Presley are Scientologsts, but they don't represent their faith in such unrepetant fashion. The man is an extremist zealot. He perverses whatever good derives from this organization and their methods implemented.

I'm glad Nicole got away from him. I used to think he was a half decent actor but in the throes of an obvious mid life crisis and media blitz to promote a fraudelent romance with Katie Holmes, the man is quite unbearable.

I can't wait to tell him off in person! :angry:

I feel better now. :P

Do you know where by any chance?

    • Yeah I saw it and it's still idiotic. I like the Pope, but it's not interrupt shows newsworthy
    • As someone who was watching OLTL at the time, Dano did excellent work, but the writing was weird. Dano even got Emmy nominated for what she did. However, it did feel that the writers did not know what to do with her, but to be fair, it did feel like a lot of that was that the character was a network mandate and the writers were making it up as they were going on. I didn't watch Dano's trek around all the soaps. That kind of thing would have worked better with an ABC performer not someone who had been off OLTL for decades. I can't imagine AW without Felicia Gallant. I really don't want to because she provided so much joy for me when there was so much disappointment on that show. The only time I thought her character didn't work was the John/Felicia storyline but it got Anna Holbrook an Emmy so I can't complain all that much. It's just another example of drama at the expense of character.
    • Bringing this over from the soccer/soaps ratings thread yesterday:  Errol said: "CBS put out a notice that it could preempt at a moment's notice as the Pope selection continues, dependent on how long it takes, of course." New pope just chosen, name to be announced soon. Yeah CBS-NewYork channel 2 is airing Pope coverage instead of Y&R right now.
    • @brisbydog - I like that you have a signature font, très chic Abe and Paulina's new apartment was the first thing I noticed.  I don't understand why people over a certain age in Salem automatically move into a condo? When it seems just as simple to make the set seem like a detached home.  But, I will give points to attention to detail of choosing colors that compliment the Black actors in the scene. Which then led to the second thing I noticed.  Why would EJ want Kayla's office, when his is 3xs the size?  Also, even if he buys the hospital, won't Kayla get to keep her office? Lastly, can we at least give Cat the agency to decide on her own with whom she wishes to date?  Do men actually need to negotiate on her behalf?  She's stunning.  My advice would be if Chad is friend-zoning her after a year together, move on to his richer brother.
    • OH!!! I love it. I can't believe I missed that. In one of the 2 fan events held the 2 years after the sorry end of our lovely show, both  Anna Stuart & Stephen Schnetzer attended & I got to talk to each of them. Obviously I was in heaven. Although at least I didn't do my shy star struck thing.
    • We probably won't get any of our CBS soaps today cause of the Pope stuff, cause you know they have to air it on regular network despite having 24/7 news channels

    • I still don't know when/how did Iris find out about Evan's connection to Janice?
    • lol Cass and Donna went on a bowling date!
    • As well as insulting our host, being rude to some of the nicest members who correct you, and having an inflated sense of duty. While others may be able to add numerous offenses, the egocentrism to force any conversation off-topic to focus on you is the most egregious act for me.  This is light entertainment, an interactive discussion, not the shallotpeel-hour.
    • Yes, that is why. I mean, not last minute but it was not what Shapiro originally wanted. First, she tried to buy the show. Then she tried to buy the character. Meanwhile several other companies also tried to buy the show.
