'I take responsibility for my actions'

The 47-year-old actor jumped up and down on the couch chair expressing his love for Katie Holmes on The Oprah Winfrey Show a few years ago.

Cruise, who was recently on the show to promote his latest movie Knight And Day opposite Cameron Diaz, said he was confused by the repercussion over his erratic behaviour on The Oprah Winfrey Show in 2006, when he jumped onto Oprah’s on set couch to express his love for Katie.

This incident led to the cancellation of Cruise’s contract with Studio Paramount Pictures after 14 years. “There was a confluence of events,” Cruise told a magazine. “My deal with Paramount was up and it wasn’t extended,” he said.

The Hollywood hunk, who will next be seen in the action comedy Knight And Day, said that he was just trying to please the show’s audience. “What happened happened. I wanted the audience to be happy just like the way I wanted to make my sisters and my mother happy when I did those skits as a kid. But I’ll take responsibility for my actions,” Cruise said.
“It felt like being the new kid in the school yard again and the other kids are whispering and whispering about you and suddenly you hear what they are saying, and you think, ‘What? That didn’t happen. Look at the reality of the situation’,” he added.
