Cher opens up about fling with Tom Cruise
Veteran singer Cher revealed to television host James Corden that Hollywood star Tom Cruise was among her top five lovers. Their first meeting in 1985 at singer Madonna and actor Sean Penn’s wedding, she says, triggered an affair .
‘‘Then a bunch of people who were dyslexic were invited to the White House, and Tom and I are both dyslexic. We didn’t go out till way later, but there definitely was a connection there,” Cher said about their next meeting. Asked if the two are still friends, she added, “Yeah! Though I don’t get what he does, that whole Scientology thing. I can’t understand it so I just… don’t,” the 72-year-old singer added about Cruise’s much-debated religious beliefs.
She said she was currently single and looking for love. “The problem I have with all the boyfriends lately is that I don’t want to go any place with them because you can’t keep a relationship going in this kind of goldfish bowl, where everything you do will be on Instagram. “There’s no way to keep something special,” she added.
