Have you heard the latest news that Tom Cruise has convinced friends Will Smith and David Beckham to join him in his latest hobby – fencing!?
The Daily Mirror was interviewing Smith and the subject of Tom Cruise and fencing came up. He told them that Tom has a room in his house that was built for practicing fencing. The three friends hang out there and practice their swordsmanship.
Smith said, “Tom has a room for training. We don’t get enough time for hanging out, just us three guys, so this is his way of getting together and bonding. David and I go to his home and just do fencing. It’s a lot of fun.”
Why fencing?
“We wanted an activity that was strenuous, but we’re getting older – we have to think about slowing down. We’ve got to watch our joints. Especially my knee… Ow,” said Smith.
After that comment, I now have a picture in my head of three old men – Cruise, Smith and Beckham – battling it out with swords. Let’s hope they don’t hurt themselves!
