R75... cruise was even hanging out at studio 54 with the likes of warhold and others when he was what 2 years out of high school? how in the world was he even ALLOWED inside that building or ALLOWED to hang out with these famous people? like i stated previously, not only how did he get the auditions, but how did he even get a GREAT powerful agent to get to even audition for his early roles?...
name me another actor how did a high school play, a dinner club play, was sent out for some commercials and not getting them, with no training from a acting school, get a agent, powerful and connected enough to get him a audition to get a role in "losing it" or "taps".... "endless love" was a bit of luck that it was a small speaking role and he was in the right time and the right place as well as the same happening in "taps" because the original actor for his role was fired and cruise happen to be in the right place at the right time again. AFTER the success of risky business he could call his shots for sure, but still he was woefully inexperienced to have continued success until top gun truly made him a superstar where he has remained...
99.9% of male actors wouldn't get these early auditions, wouldn't get a powerful agent to get them these auditions and would have been told you need to bulk up your resume with plays and training and then i'll send you out for commercials and film roles, in fact, one would think that with his lack of success in the commercials he was sent out for and didn't get such a agent would have dropped him, they certainly wouldn't have had him audition for film roles one would think?!.
99% of male actors takes 10 years or so to have success as a working actor, nothing more.. cruise went from nobody to 3 years star and 3 years later superstar! granted his success from risky business to top gun had him deserving that success with top gun and thereafter, it's the 1980 to 1983 years from nobody to risky business stardom that is in question..
his "best friend" the sociopath leader of scientology i bet brainwashed cruise into thinking he indeed was special because i mean look how fast and quickly he became a success in hollywood!.. speaking of miscavige and the allegations of cruise early years before fame, interesting that it has been reported by former high level cultie tom devocht that he was indeed one of the persons who in person was there when miscavige and his wife shelley (not seen in public for over 12 years and counting) like to stay up late and read outloud and/or watch the secret videos filmed of cruise and his auditing information...
it's devocht who in 2 different vanity fair magazine issues about scientology stated that miscavige would both watch the secretly filmed videos and read out loud the transcripts while laughing and drinking expensive scotch to the small "in" group and miscavige would "roll his eyes and say out loud "geez, can you believe it!" and shelly would 'blush" and say out loud "that's gross!"....
so who knows what they were talking about, devocht knows but has said he will never state publicly what he saw or heard beyond these reactions of miscavige and his wife... perhaps the information indeed confirms the allegations and rumors of cruise early years in nyc before he became famous?..
