Tom Cruiseis one of the most popular actors in Hollywood.
However, off-screen he’s been one of the most controversial figures in the entertainment business.
Cruise’s involvement as a father to his three children has also made headlines in the past.

Here are some of Tom Cruise’s biggest controversies over the years.
He also laughed about how the passenger complained of numb hands after the flight.
However, Letterman seemed to be taken aback and even called out the actor for his poor judgment.

“But honestly, looking at it from another direction, isn’t that attempted manslaughter?
You just turned a guy’s oxygen off,” LettermantoldCruise.
“I want to get back on that cake list.

It’s the best cake,” Shields joked.
“Tom, I need to be back on the cake list.”
Eventually, Winfrey convinced Cruise to head backstage and get Holmes, which he did.

The actor brought Holmes out on stage, and the two embraced and kissed in front of the audience.
The interview was one of the strangest and most unhinged that Cruise had ever given.
That moment was also credited for helping the online entertainment blog industry take off.

However, Cruise is one of the most famous members and has achieved a top-level status within the church.
However, it wasn’t until 1992 that he publicly confirmed his involvement with the religion.
TV star Leah Remini was also previously a member of the church, but has since left the religion.

Over the years, Remini has opened up more about Cruise and Scientology.
“He is very aware of the abuses that go on in Scientology.
He’s been part of it,” she toldThe Daily Beastin 2018.
This inflamed Cruise, who went on a long rant, using profanity and screaming at the crew.
He even threatened to fire them if they stepped out of line any further.
“They’re back there in Hollywood making movies right now because of us.
“I don’t ever want to see it again!
“If I see you do it again, you’re fing gone.”
Cruise later addressed the rant.
“There was a lot at stake at that point.
I said what I said,” the actor toldEmpire Magazine.
