Tom Cruise Stays Seated For His Sitdown With Oprah

The first part of the much-hyped, two-part Oprah interview with Tom Cruise aired today. Oprah and Tom sat down in Tom's home in Telluride, Colorado, and Tom was on his best behavior. If we didn't already know his opinion of mood-altering prescription drugs, we would've thought he was on some. O and T discussed the infamous "sofa incident" (he claims Oprah egged him on), his public feud with Brooke Shields over her postpartum depression (he claims it "came out wrong"), and his subsequent interview with "glib" Matt Lauer (he claims he felt "pressed"). Overall, he still came off as smarmy, however muted his behavior was.
