I’ve been gossip blogging for a lot of years so the info in this blind item is not new to me. But for those of you who still labor under the false impression that Tom Cruise is stand-up/straight-up fella…read the below and think David Beckham for #1, Rob Thomas for #2 and Will Smith for #3. These three names have always surrounded Tommy as possible and probably boyfriends.

When the person who appears to have the power in a relationship backs down quickly in a dispute, you know that there have to be some compelling reasons why. Although all the talk up to this point has been about his involvement with a powerful group, there were actually three other reasons he settled so quickly.

Here are the three reasons: 1. His very personal relationship with a professional athlete. 2. His very personal relationship with a musician. 3. His very personal relationship with a famous actor.

She was ready and willing to expose all three relationships to get what she wanted. The scandal of having these three famous people deposed by attorneys about their sexual relationships would have destroyed all four men. So, he gave her the thing she wanted most so that his biggest secret could remain a secret.

Katie Holmes’s knowledge of  Tom’s true nature could possibly be the reason their divorce was settled in such record setting time.
