I don't know if this is true or not but its pretty freaking hilarious. Note Rob Thomas wife's name.
Independent Sources Confirms Existence of Tom Cruise/Rob Thomas
Rumor Independent Sources announced today that it has uncovered a new,
previously undiscovered Tom Cruise rumor:
Tom Cruise and Matchbox Twenty's Rob Thomas are lovers!
Independent Sources has hesitated writing about Tom Cruise/Katie Holmes for
many reasons. First, there are other things going on in the world that,
believe it or not, rank higher on the importance scale. Second, pretty much
everything that can be said is being said.
However, someone (I'll call her Mistress of the Hollywood Rumor) just walked
into Insider's office with the following dish that I feel compelled to pass
on. I did a quick check of Technorati and it wasn't there. So even if it is
not true, it is at least original.
No doubt that anyone with an Internet connection has read about Tom Cruise
being gay. According to rumor lore, he has had a long-time boyfriend in
Chicago who is an Asian pilot for American Airlines. This is an accusation
that Cruise and more importantly Cruise's many attorneys vehemently deny.
There have been many stories that supposedly corroborate his sexuality but
never a smoking gun. Rumor mongers attribute this to the fact that Cruise
goes to great lengths to cover his tracks. We are told that everyone around
him signs extensive confidentiality contracts with enormous penalties for
indiscretion. (Exhibit A: the 8-page confidentiality contract Cruise's
housekeeper was forced to sign).
Such stories have been around for years and Cruise has evidently attempted
to counter them with a series of high-profile heteronormative relationships.
First, Nicole Kidman, then Penelope Cruz, and most recently Katie Holmes. In
each instance, the "relationship" is actually a contract that gives the
women a boost to their careers, a lot of money, and an elegant lifestyle.
Here is where this particular rumor gets interesting. Not long ago, Marisol,
the wife of Matchbox Twenty's Rob Thomas (who has had to contend with his
own rumors of bi-sexuality) found her husband in bed with Tom Cruise causing
Cruise's people to shift into high gear.
First, Mrs. Rob Thomas was bought off for an undetermined sum. Second,
Cruise and his handlers set out to immediately find Cruise a girlfriend.
Second-tier actresses were targeted. A list was drawn up with Jessica Alba
(#1 pick) and three other girls who fell out for various reasons. Originally
targeted (#3 I think) but later rejected as "undesirable" was rumor queen
Lindsay Lohan. Way down at #5 on the list was Katie Holmes, but that was the
one with whom they were able to strike a deal.
Once the contact was signed, photo ops were set up, leaks were made to the
right places, and we've had celebrity relationship on steroids ever since.
One thing I will credit this rumor for is how it nicely explains Tom's
behavior this past few months-including the couch jumping episode on Oprah.
Cruise simply didn't have time for the Holmes rumors to circulate at its
normal speed and he couldn't allow it to be second page news while the
tabloids focused on Brad, Jennifer and Angelina. No, this relationship had
to immediately become the "it" topic.
Well, that's how we hear it. <script><!-- D(["mb","Rumor Independent Sources announced today that it has uncovered a new,
