Tom Cruise: weirder than we thought

I know, I know. You read the title of this post and immediately thought, "how is that even possible?" Well, it turns out he was allegedly stalking Joe DiMaggio.

While people have been spooked by Tom Cruise of late, Joe DiMaggio was one of the first.

The actor, who seems weirdlier and weirdlier to fans as he continues to refuse to show his and Katie Holmes' baby, Suri, scared the Yankee legend by following him, our source reports.

This was in the mid-'90s, after Cruise had already starred in "Top Gun" and "Born on the Fourth of July," but the baseball great, once married to Marilyn Monroe, didn't realize - or didn't care - what a big star Cruise was.

"He'd show up at baseball-signing shows and wait for Joe to come out," says the source. "One time, he waited outside a restaurant for him for three hours. [DiMaggio] called him 'a short little guy.' He didn't like it. He felt like he was stalking him."

Ah, Tom Cruise, the crazy-ass gift that keeps on giving. Makes you wonder what he's going to do next. I'm going to go out on a limb and predict that he'll declare himself a direct descendant of Neptune, god of the sea, and start perading around in a toga, toting a trident. Yeah.
