COUPLES THAT DIDN'T WORK: Tom Cruise & Cher





















For real, this actually happened. It was the late 1980's, Cher was in her 40's and had recently divorced Sonny Bono. Bono (not the douche from U2 with the glasses) was an older man 11 years Chers senior, the two moved in together when Cher was 17. Newly divorced Cher was on the prowl and looking for young meat, she was what is commonly refereed to these days as a cougar, Tom Cruise was a happy go lucky fun loving scamp and was the talk of the town in Hollywood. Cruise has just appeared in Risky Business and was making Top Gun, he was the TENDER age of 23. The affair lasted for several months and then ended when Tom Cruise left Cher for Mimi Rogers, another older woman. Two things are certain (1) Tom cruise likes crazy taller woman and (2) Cher likes shorter crazy men. Perhaps Cher never really got over Tom Cruise and has forever mourned his loss, maybe 'If I could turn back time' was an ode to Tom and the crazy sexy outfits and cannon straddling were all part of a scheme to lure Tom back?
