Couples you would literally NEVER consider being together news now, and things seem to be hotting up between sofa-eschewing Scientologist Tom Cruise and actress Lindsay Lohan.
heat first reported it two weeks ago, after Lindsay bumped into Tom at London celeb hotspot the Chiltern Firehouse and started heavily flirting at him – and now US magazine OK! reckons they’ve been seeing each other on the down-low ever since.
“Lindsay is absolutely buzzing – she’s always thought the world of Tom,” an insider told the publication. Tom, meanwhile, reportedly thinks he can take the 28-year-old under his wing. “He genuinely thinks he can help Lindsay turn her life around.”
But hang on, haven’t we heard this all before? Er, yes: back in 2006, before Tom married Katie Holmes, Lindsay was rumoured to have been on the list of his potential wives – you know that list the Church of Scientology totally denied? Yeah, that.
And when Vanity Fair published its expose on the church’s alleged involvement in 52-year-old Tom’s love life in October 2012, Lindsay jumped the gun by tweeting her innocence, saying: “I just want everyone and Tom Cruise to know, that I have/had no part in the Vanity Fair story. Nor has anyone in my life, personal and work-related.”
(Literally zero people had wondered if Lindsay had had something to do with it, but still, it was nice to know.)
Anyway, yeah, Lindsay and Tom, eh? Tom-Li doesn’t have quite the same ring to it as other celebrity couple names, so we’re going to go ahead and call it doomed already. Soz, Tom-Li.
GALLERY: The WORST celebrity waxworks the world has ever seen
celebrity waxworks worst ever seen
1 of 16Bineth Where-did-you-go?
Clue: We reckon she’s still not done with playing out in the cold. She also once liked messing about in a (sand) Pitt.
2 of 16Gwyneth Paltrow
Slightly better eyeliner on the real deal. And looking a bit less dead.
3 of 16Bob Plasticson
Clue: Those dopey eyes look like they need some sleep… but then again he was alive for about a million years in his famous film franchise.
4 of 16Robert Pattinson
Not quite so stoned as his plastic counterpart. Or so ginger for that matter.
5 of 16J No
Clue: She reckons she comes from the block, but we don’t think she meant a block of wax.
6 of 16Jennifer Lopez
Her complexions still looks too perfect to be real but at least she won’t melt if you put her by the fire.
7 of 16Sniff Pilchard
Clue: He should be singing about mistletoe and wine but we think this version is probably missing a toe and smells of wee.
8 of 16Sir Cliff Richard
Aah, just look how happy he is to be alive and wear a nice scarf instead of that starchy old shirt and wonky wig.
9 of 16Not nice spice
Clue: This one is less ‘posh’ and more like a bad Hilary Swank about to audition for the Apprentice if you ask us.
10 of 16Victoria Beckham
It’s amazing what some good hair extensions and some decent slap can do for ones complexion.
11 of 16Justin weaver
Probably far more pleasant to hang about with than his human equivalent
12 of 16Justin Bieber.
Look! The human version has grown a lickle moustache and everything. See how proud he is.
13 of 16Bennifer Barmier
Not sure Ben Affleck would want this thing walking down the aisle...
14 of 16Jennifer Garner
Affleck's missus is prettier in the flesh than in plastic. And ever so slightly less butch.
15 of 16Plastic Prince
The only way we can free willy would be to melt him...
16 of 16Prince William
Look how much more handsome he looks without all that wax for hair and lipstick on!
