Penelope Cruz arriving to the Independent Spirit Awards in Santa Monica
Fearing he'd get cooties or something, Tom Cruise totally blew off ex-girlfriend(!) Penelope Cruz at a pre-Oscars party on Friday night. A spy told the New York Post:
"Penelope tapped him on the shoulder and timidly asked, 'Tom?' Tom turned around, got visibly flustered and awkwardly said, 'Oh, hey. Hi,' and gave her a small, distant hug before turning back around to his friends. It was weird."
Cruise's wife, Katie Holmes, "was not there. But he clearly hasn't run into Penelope very often since they split" five years ago, our insider said.
