WTF Celebrity Couples (Tom Cruise Edition)

A month ago, I did a post about oddball celeb couples.

Well, I was going to include Tom Cruise on that list, but realized there were simply too many of his relationships worthy of a spot. (I mean, any relationship featuring Tom Cruise is a WTF couple, let's be real). So, I decided to give him his own post.

Look at me, being generous.

Here is a look at five of his most eyebrow-raising relationships.

Enjoy!

Tom Cruise and Heather Locklear (1982)

Okay, so this might not be weird to you. (In fact, I bet a lot of you under-20's are scratching your head, thinking, "Heather who?"). But it's weird to me. Because I think this might have been the most normal relationship the Risky Business star ever had.

Both are around the same age. Both are disgustingly attractive. And Tom wasn't a scientologist yet. Rumor has it he used to hang around the Dynasty set, like a love-sick puppy, waiting to hang out with his blonde teen dream. Awwwww.

Tom Cruise and Cher (mid-1980s)

Yeah. I'm not sure what more I can add about this relationship. Perhaps I'll let Cher tell you.

The pop singer was 39 when she met the 23-year-old heartthrob at a White House fundraising event.

"It was a long, long time ago and neither one of us ever talked about it and I don't know why," she told Entertainment Tonight. "I loved him though, he was amazing."

Tom Cruise and Mimi Rogers (1987 to 1990)

If you don't like Tom Cruise, blame this woman. She is the person who introduced him to Scientology and essentially destroyed his credibility and sanity. His life was changed, and ours too.

She ended up being his first wife and then left him a few years later because she claimed he never wanted to have sex. She said he wanted to be a monk.

Tom Cruise and Penelope Cruz (2001 to 2004)

Sometimes I totally forget that Tom Cruise dated this Spanish bombshell. It was so...boring. At least from the tabloids' perspective. The two looked terrific together in photos. But that's about it.

I think how it ended is what weirds me out. Tom's spokesperson released a statement saying that after three years, the two didn't want to be "boyfriend and girlfriend anymore, but want to remain friends." Because they're in seventh grade.

Later, reports that the Catholic-raised Penelope had been simply fed up with Tom's Scientology addiction surfaced, to nobody's surprise.

Tom Cruise and Sofia Vergara (2005)

Most people have absolutely no idea that mere months before Tom impregnated a Dawson's Creek actress, he was intending to marry Modern Family star Sofia Vergara. Yes.

He was convinced Sofia was the perfect wife and he was also intending to introduce Scientology into the Latin American community through the actress. She had already met his children and had planned to visit Scientology headquarters with him, when she suddenly freaked out and stopped returning his calls.

So, what do you think? Which Tom Cruise girlfriend surprised you the most?
