Tom Cruise: Getting More Retarded With Each Day

[Jonny M]

Actor Tom Cruise has said he plans to eat the placenta of his new baby.
"I thought that would be good," he told GQ magazine. "Very nutritious. I'm gonna eat the cord and the placenta right there."

It is the latest in a series of unusual revelations by the 43-year-old about the child he is expecting with his fiancee, actress Katie Holmes.

The couple, who have been engaged since June 2005, plan to marry in late summer or early autumn, according to Cruise.

The Mission Impossible star has also claimed he knew Holmes, 27, was pregnant even before she told him.

Last week Cruise said on US television that Catholic-born Holmes has already joined him as a follower of the Church of Scientology.

In the GQ interview, Cruise defended the religion's doctrine that childbirth should be completed in silence.

"It's really about respecting the woman," he said. "It's not about her not screaming."

Cruise said earlier this month that their baby was due "any day now".

The baby will be the first for Holmes, while Cruise has two adopted children from his marriage to Nicole Kidman.

In the olden days Midwifes used to cook up the placenta to new Mums because of the nutritional value, Jon and i were watching this programme on telly the other night where this woman cooked up hers and fed it to her whole family she made pate and all sorts out of it

[DavidM]

Perhaps thats planned for MI4 ? (The hospital visit - not the meal... yuuuuck!)

[kasavien]

according to the news it was supposed to be a joke, but apparently no-one told cruise he's not funny

I find it easy to believe it as a joke. Scientologists are weird, but they aren't usually cannibals.

there was something on telly the other night about that. that Hugh Fearnly-whittinstall or whatever he is called, the one that did that river cottage cookery program, well he cooked up a placenta for some weird family, and he even had some of it himself, and some of it was raw, made into pate, and they all looked like they were enjoying it immensely. barf.

hmmm, well tom cruise has always been a ball bag. i found it especially satisfying when that journalist squirted him with water, shame it wasnt a placenta.

[DavidM]
