Tom Cruise Laughs About Being Insane Scientologist [Celebrity Science]

[KiRby]

This clip of Tom Cruise on David Letterman later tonight, in which he laughs about his fear of psychiatry and his insane, megalomaniacal tendencies, is one piece in a set: Scientology Prince asserts normalcy.
Everyone thought Cruise was a crazy Scientologist, because that's how he had acted with Oprah (jumping on her couch); Matt Lauer (calling him "glib) and in that leaked Scientology recruiting video.
Cruise's attempt at redemption started with a conciliatory lunch with Sumner Redstone, the Viacom CEO who had canceled his contract because he was acting nuts. It continued through with a carefully-constructed, well-received impersonation of Redstone in the movie "Tropic Thunder."
"This might usher in a new era for the strange, secretive actor," the [I]Observer[/I] wrote.
Next thing you know, he was on Oprah Winfrey's show again. He still seemed sorta crazy.
Then he was back with Matt Lauer on the Today Show, kinda-but-not-really apologizing for calling Lauer "glib" in a fight about psychiatry. Cruise still seemed to hate psychiatry. And sorta crazy.
Tonight he's on Letterman, reading this Top Ten list and being a good sport about Scientology-related items like the "Vicks Vaporub" and the "power-mad" ones.

But you know what? He still seems creepy and crazy. The only way to redeem that, if you're going to do TV interviews all the time, is to get cured.
