This star has been at the top of the Hollywood heap for most of his career but his bottom has stolen his Days of Thunder.
He has gone from Top Gun to Top Bum in an internet post that quickly went viral.
Yes, Tom Cruise has been exposed wearing a truly tremendous fake derriere in one of his films.
It all started when Twitter user Swiss Keats posted an image with the message: “Hello, please, i present the theory that for one single shot in Valkyrie (2008), at 5:12, Tom Cruise wears a fake butt. Observe.”
The internet is full of fun images, may of which are the result of some clever digital trickery. However, this extraordinary sight appears to be the real thing, no ifs, no butts…
The proof is demonstrated in a slow motion clip of the screen that shows the full-trousered magnificence of Cruise’s behind.
What on earth is going on?
The 5’7 actor has long been rumoured to wear lifts in his shoes to make him appear taller, but does he really also pad out his posterior?

The truth has been revealed and it is all to do with the star’s drive to do his own action scenes.
Swiss Keats admits: “He does his own stunts, people wear ass pads all the time, but it’s the SHEER EXTREMITY of the rump’s robustness that jacks this up.”
Another commentator agreed: “Is it a stunt scene? Stunt actors wear fake butts for padding (wouldn’t put it past Cruise all the time but this one looks hilariously outsized).”
Even if it is standard practice, most people couldn’t resist poking fun at the sheer enormity of the padding.
One said: “Pretty sure that is a real butt wearing a fake Tom Cruise.”
Another quipped: “Either that or a Kardashian is his stunt double. Is there a short one?”
