Tom Cruise: Converts reporters to fans
Top actor Tom Cruise may sometimes confuse his countries, but he's winning fans among Brazil's press corps.
A news conference to promote his movie "Valkyrie" turned into something of a fan club meeting when a journalist said he promised his niece he would get a photo with Cruise. The actor immediately obliged.
That prompted another journalist to squeeze under a barrier for a photo. Guards stopped other reporters from doing the same.
Tom Cruise says he's enjoying his five-day Brazil trip, but sometimes stumbled over differences between Latin American nations
Tom Cruise thanked one questioner with the Spanish "gracias" though Brazilians speak Portuguese. And he said he enjoys the tango the traditional dance of neighboring Argentina.
