Connor Cruise, Son of Tom, DJs at Super Bowl Event

Turns out Tom Cruise isn't the only member of his family with a short fuse, thin skin, and questionable values. According to the New York Post's Page Six, Tom's 17-year-old son, Connor, a passionate fan of the New England Patriots, lashed out at a business associate with a text that included a homophobic slur when the associate dared to jokingly taunt him over the Patriot's Super Bowl loss. When the game ended, Todd Krim, who once worked with Connor booking him DJ gigs tweeted, “Sorry @TheConnorCruise maybe next year!!!” Connor's response, which came in text form: “That was a gay ass [bleeping] tweet . . . U don’t say [bleep] like that about my team the second they lose. Low.” When Krim said he was joking, Connor continued his electronic, profanity-laced tirade. Krim forwarded screen shots of the texts in an email circulated widely yesterday and said he is no longer working with Connor. Nice work on the child-rearing, Tom! Connor's a real prize package! Oh, BTW, Connor has since apologized. Too late, if you ask us. . .
