90124P2_CRUISE_B_GR_01 There are a couple of fun tidbits of news out today and since there isn’t much going on in the Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes world right now, I thought I would post these real quick.

ScreenStar.com has a fun article with a list of first jobs for celebrities. Tom Cruise is on the list. Can you guess what his first job was? They say it was as a bell hop. Other celebrities on the list are Brad Pitt, Jennifer Aniston, Tom Hanks (one of my faves!) and Julia Roberts.

The Insider has a list of movie roles that stars have turned down. Which role did Tom turn down? The lead role in “Footloose”! I love Tom, but I can’t imagine anyone but Kevin Bacon playing that role. It’s one of my all-time favorite movies and he was just perfect for it. They are doing a remake of the film and Gossip Girl’s Chace Crawford will play the lead.

Do you think Tom regrets turning it down? Other celebrities who turned down roles were John Travolta for Forrest Gump, Molly Ringwald for Pretty Woman and Will Smith for The Matrix. You can see the complete list here.
