Fart Pushes Cruise Over The Edge


Tom Cruise has been driven insane with rage - by a fart.

No, David Beckham did not let one rip while sitting on Tom's face (that would make Tom happy, not angry). The episode of flatulence that has Tom all in a tizzy actually took place during what was meant to be a respectful moment of silence observed by the cast and crew of Tom's new movie Valkyrie.

Tom, director Bryan Singer and writer Christopher McQuarrie apparently ordered the tribute in honor of the real-life anti-Nazis being portrayed in the film - and it was quite a touching and solemn moment too, except for the dude breaking wind. Said one insider:

Quite rightly, Tom is furious. We were filming at the Bendler Block in Germany, where the anti-Nazis were executed. ... For somebody to pass wind in a situation like that is unforgivable.

There is apparently video of the farting incident - and Tom is, even as we speak, studying said footage to see if the perpetrator can be identified. Let me give you a little help Tom - it's the dude who's giggling and waving his hand behind his butt. I'm guessing the guy standing next to him is sidling away while holding his nose. There may be some wilting foliage in his vicinity as well. You better catch him too Tom - wouldn't want someone getting away with making light of your empty, self-serving gesture. No one makes fun of Tom Cruise and gets away with it. Except, well, every blogger on earth.
