‘The War of the Worlds’ has given the actress a very varied shoe rack
You’re nobody in Hollywood until Tom Cruise sends you his famous coconut cake every Christmas. Even in the third season of ‘Hacks’ they have managed to parody it perfectly. And the truth is that, beyond his issues with the sect he is involved in, practically everyone who has worked with the actor agrees to speak about him in the same way: kind, talented and, above all, generous. If not, ask Dakota Fanning.
Phoning Fanning
In 2005 he coincided with the actor in the celebrated ‘War of the Worlds’, by Steven Spielberg. The film marked a before and after in Cruise’s career (it was the one he promoted when he went on the Oprah Winfrey show to jump on the couch), but Fanning has great memories of him, which He gave her a mobile phone when she celebrated her eleventh birthday on set.
“It was a Motorola Razr… I didn’t have anyone to call, but I wanted a Razr. I should have talked about it a lot.because that’s what he bought me”, he commented. The curious thing, as the actress explained on ‘The Kelly Clarkson Show’, is that Since then he has been giving her a gift every year.. A very specific one: shoes. And there is a reason for that.
I loved shoes when I was little, and I started getting into small adult shoes when I was on the ‘War of the Worlds’ promotional tour, so I was really excited about it. And from that birthday onwards, he always sends me shoes.
Who had friends like Tom Cruise, really.
