Tom was honored with the MTV Generation Award, MTV’s first lifetime achievement award, who accepted it from his girlfriend Katie Holmes.
She showed a good sense of humour when she poked fun at his “Oprah” appearance by dropping down on one knee in celebration and asking the crowd “Should I go get him?”
Laughing, Tom moved slowly through his remarks and told yelling audience members, “Let me speak. If I’ve been able to entertain you at all, OK, then, I thank you for allowing me to do so,” he said.
The awards were based on fan votes and the show will be broadcast June 9th.
Pictures will be posted later!

Also in the news is the message that Tom probably will head to Australia to accompany Katie on a working holiday, but nothing is sure yet. (news.com.au)
And apparently Tom shattered a tooth while playing with Connor and a play mate. Tom claims his playtime-induced injury is the worst he has ever suffered. “We were playing ‘ogre’ – I’m the ogre and I capture the kids, then they become the ogre and they’ve got to catch me,” he said. “So I’m running up this big slide, not realizing there’s a steel bar at the top. I go sprinting up, turn around and bam! It’s knocked me out and knocked my tooth out, shattering it. My nose is swollen and I’ve got blood pouring out of my mouth. I’ve got my son there and his friend, and my concern is not to freak them out. So I say, ‘OK boys. Well, that was fun. Now let’s go home. It’s getting late.” southflorida.com, contactmusic.com.
The planned world premiere in Japan of director Steven Spielberg’s War of the Worlds has been canceled because of concerns about providing security for Tom Cruise and other stars and preventing bootleg recording of the film, reports the Associated Press.
The anticipated film, a contemporary retelling of H.G. Wells’s seminal classic, was set to debut at Tokyo’s Budokan arena on June 13, more than two weeks before its June 29 global release.
“To our regret, we have decided to cancel the showing because of safety concerns,” distributor UIP said in a statement.
The premiere has not been cancelled, just moved places.

In a candid, exclusive interview with “Access Hollywood‘s” Billy Bush, superstar Tom Cruise, usually tight-lipped about the details of his love life, opens up about his relationship with actress Katie Holmes and declares his love for her. The interview airs on “Access Hollywood” Monday, May 23.
“I love this woman,” said Cruise. “She’s magnificent.”
When Bush asked the star why he appears to be less inhibited about showing his affection towards Holmes in public than in his past relationships, the actor flashed his trademark smile and replied, “I’ve got to tell you something, I’m not going to hide it. I am so happy and I am not going to pretend or hide it or be shy. This woman is magnificent. I’m having the best time, Billy, and I’m really, really happy and I can’t contain it. I’m not going to pretend.”
Cruise added that he and the “Batman Begins” star share a lot of common interests and hobbies. “We go scuba diving together,” he said. “She likes all the stuff that I love to do, she’s funny and smart. I was looking at her (like), ‘man you are so cool.'”
In regards to how his new girlfriend first caught his eye, the actor said, “I’ve always seen how talented she was. I’ve seen her in films and I’ve seen “Dawson’s Creek.” I’ve seen her work and you go, ‘Man, that girl is really talented.'”
News24.com reveals more details of the interview:
He said: “When I make a move like that, I’m saying, ‘This is my woman.’ People are gonna do what they’re gonna do. You can’t think in terms of what people are gonna do or gonna say…
“I want to share my life with this woman, she’s exceptional, she’s special, she’s extraordinary and I have great respect for her. I’ve got nothing to hide, I’m happy… She is something else.”
He said he was not worried about the age gap and joked: “I’m concerned whether someone can keep up with me. I’ve got a fast life, I’ve got a lot going on.”
Holmes has also been tipped to play Cruise’s love interest in the third instalment of Mission Impossible, according to the New York Post.

The film festival rumor mill is working overtime with the notion that Tom Cruise will make a surprise appearance at the Cannes Film Festival Wednesday to promote his new flick “War of the Worlds.”
Word is that Cruise, who is scheduled to show at the nearby Monte Carlos Grand Prix next week, will show up on the Croisette, the beachfront promenade, to pose under the mammoth “War of the Worlds” poster at the Carlton Hotel. With a captive audience of 4,000 journalists, Cruise knows that Cannes is, in the words of producer Joel Silver, the world’s stage for l0 days.
Whether Cruise will show with his new arm candy Katie Holmes is another question.
