Dr. Drew is one hot biyatch. On his show yesterday, he called out Tom Cruise for being crazy:

“A lot of people in the public eye who behave strangely have mental illness we can learn from, and much of it is based on childhood trauma, without a doubt. Take a guy like Tom Cruise. Why would somebody be drawn into a cultish kind of environment like Scientology? To me, that’s a function of a very deep emptiness and suggests serious neglect in childhood - maybe some abuse, but mostly neglect.”

Wha wha whatttt???!?! Somebody better call the FBI stat, because you know the Scientologists are going to circle the wagons and bust a cap in Dr. Drew’s booty. I’m not even kidding. He’d better watch his back but good. Tom’s handlers had this to say in retaliation:

“This unqualified television performer who is obviously just looking for notoriety is so grotesquely unprofessional as to pretend to diagnose Tom and others without ever meeting them. He seems to be spewing the absurdity that all Scientologists are mentally ill. The last time we heard garbage like this was from Joseph Goebbels.”

Oh, so he’s a Nazi now? Please. Don’t these Cruise spokespeople have better things to do, like keep Katie on her meds so she doesn’t “accidentally” escape from the compound? That radio collar does eventually run out of batteries, you know. She’s just biding her time.

So! Apparently, Tom and Kate were on the official Scientology Party Ship (yes, there is such a thing), and now they’re suspected of having asbestos poisoning. Looks like the Thetans kind of messed up on this one, don’t you think? There is a serious side to this, though, because if they DO have asbestos poisoning, they could get cancer and die.

(That would be bad.)

Here are some excerpts from the Tom Cruise Oprah Interview, tentatively titled “See! I’m Not Crazy!”

On the Couch Jumping Incident

“When we finished that show with you jumping up on the sofa, I was like, ‘Wow. What was that?’” she tells him in an interview in his Telluride, Colo., home. “I had no idea it was going to turn into an international brouhaha, as I’m sure you did not either.”

She even confesses, “I was a little nervous coming up this morning, I have to admit, because you and I have not sat down for a real conversation since the sofa incident.”

Cruise tells Winfrey, “I just felt that way, and I feel that way about her.

“I can’t even articulate it, to be honest,” he adds. “That feeling, that connection. Just who she is and what she means to me.”

Of the negative response to his couch jumping, Cruise says, “It just kind of kept going.

“Those things I kind of go, ‘You just have to take in stride.’ It just kind of became a confluence of things.” Read more

Okay, so Tom Cruise is going back on Oprah, apparently because we didn’t have enough slices of Crazy Pie the first time. Pundits are guessing that him and Oprah are going to shoot the shizzit about his couch jumping antics, Katie, Scientology, and the premise that DUDE IS FREAKING INSANE. Oh, and as an added bonus? He asked (*cough* threatened *cough*) a whole bunch of his “friends” to call in and tell us all how incredible amazing Tom Cruise is. So we understand that all this craziness? This hoopla? Totally irrelevant, man.

You gonna watch? It’s Maverick-approved!

We need more of this today, don’t we? Let’s laugh a little!

Here’s a quote of the day from John Travolta defending Tom Cruise after all the hoopla over his Scientology videos last week:

Travolta, 53, claims the intense media scrutiny has gone too far. “[Tom] has – we all have – the right to practice how we feel,” he told PEOPLE Saturday at Australia.com’s G’Day L.A. gala celebrating Australia Week 2008. “It finally becomes unfair.”

I agree that everyone has the right to believe what they want to believe, however, when you’re as crazy about it as Tom is, you’ve crossed a line. Plus, he makes me uncomfortable with all his intense eye bugging out stuff that he does…….I don’t know how Katie puts up with it. I’m guessing she takes a LOT of bathroom breaks.

Okie dokie! It’s being yanked down all over the Web, so watch it while you can:
UPDATE: The video I posted has already been yanked by the Church of Scientology, but you can download it following this link: Tom Cruise Scientology Video

A couple of thoughts:

• What is an SP?
• Any church that plays Mission Impossible as a hymn can’t be all bad.
• Nobody but Tom Cruise and his fellow Thetans is apparently able to help at an accident. Screw those paramedics!
• Tom Cruise loves to romp and play. His words, not mine.

I would feel sorry for Katie Holmes, but she volunteered for the Crazy Train.

This is what I got when I went looking for the mysterious Tom Cruise Scientology video:

Seriously! And I can’t find it anywhere else right now, those Thetans mean serious business! Well, here’s the highlights:

Tom Cruise: “I think it’s a privilege to call yourself a Scientologist, and it’s something that you have to earn because a Scientologist does… has the ability to create new and better realities and improve conditions. Being a Scientologist, you look at someone and know absolutely that you can help them,” he said.

“Being a Scientologist, when you drive past an accident… you know you have to do something about it because you know you’re the only one that can really help.

“But that’s what drives me… I know that we have an opportunity to really help… effectively change people’s lives and I am dedicated to that. I am absolutely, uncompromisingly dedicated to that.

“We have a responsibility.
