Knowing You, Tom Cruise
Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes are apparently big fans of Steve Coogan's Norwich alter-ego Alan Partridge.
Katie got her husband Tom into the British comedy I'm Alan Partridge after she began quoting some of Alan's one-liners, the Daily Star reports.
Tom has now apparently approached Steve to invite him for dinner at The London restaurant.
"He was really insistent that Steve meet up with him for dinner soon. He suggested The London. Steve looked flattered but embarrassed by the attention," a source reportedly said.
Apparently Tom is particularly fond of Alan's "sports casual" joke.
"Steve was actually really taken aback by it all because Tom was tickled by the idea of Partridge's sports casual clothing. He kept coming up to Steve and declaring 'I'm sports casual'. How surreal must that be to have Tom Cruise announcing that to you in Hollywood," the source is reported to have said.
