Bingo! Tom Cruise is front and center this week, part of his publicity tour for Mission: Impossible--Fallout, and, yes, I had him on the Guessing Game list, along with Prince George. (54-year-old Brigitte Nielsen and her new baby were on the list four weeks ago.) Unlike some celebrity cover stories, in which it's clear that People didn't actually interview the celebrity, here they did...
“I’ve wanted to make movies since I was 4 years old,” he tells PEOPLE in the magazine’s new cover story. “To be able to entertain an audience, that was my dream.”
... although "Exclusive Details" is presumably less deeply intimate than "People Exclusive" (for example, see Melissa McCarthy's 5/21/18 cover here) and definitely less annoyingly pretentious than "The People Interview," (seen on Mariska Hargitay's 3/28/18 cover, here.) Based on the teaser article at People.com (link above,) "Hollywood's most mysterious star" didn't really spill the beans about anything. My biggest question about Tom Cruise? What, exactly, has he had done to his face?
The big news at People.com this morning is Demi Lovato's overdose and hospitalization, but that happened yesterday, too late for this week's cover. Will it still be big news in a week? We'll see.
See the Guessing Game post here.
Last year at this time: Issue dated August 7, 2017
Friday morning update: In the interest of strict accuracy, I'll note that although Nielsen was 54 when her baby was born, she is now 55.
