Tom Cruise Still Dances In His Underwear 40 Years After 'Risky Business'

Leave it to Tom Cruise to top himself again and again! Tom told Access Hollywood's Scott Evans at the "Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning Part 1" premiere in Rome over the weekend that when it comes to doing his own death-defying stunts, his reasoning is simple. "Well, you know, you never have to. But I want to," the icon said. "I want to thrill that audience, I want to do everything I can." Now 60, Tom has been dominating Hollywood for more than four decades and he went on to reflect on one of his star-making roles as it celebrates a major milestone. When telling Scott about the 40th anniversary of "Risky Business," Tom remembered filming the now-iconic dance scene and how grateful he is to have had it launch him into a new level of success. "[L]ook, I grew up dancing in my underwear in my house. Who didn't?" he smiled, adding, "[T]hat was a formative experience and I feel very lucky to have that opportunity, to be able to have that kind of script and that kind of material at that age." Though Tom only continues to prove himself as a powerhouse on and off camera, he's still in touch with his "Risky Business" roots! When Scott asked if he dances in his underwear from time to time today, Tom delivered a relatable answer. "Yeah, I still," he nodded. "Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning Part 1" hits theaters on July 12.

I have to give credit to the interviewer: He asks some other questions than the usual and Tom is able to give some other or modified answers to them. Well done, great interview!

[@susanking8409]

Agree. He made it look easy and I am sure it's not!

[@tob4b1]

and i think he is liked by the celebrities, because the way he interviews people, is like old friends talking….catching up… very relaxed

[@meryemouertaniplouff]

[@jdc1979]

Tom Cruise is one in a million. Haters can go to hell.

Not a case of hating. More a case of not falling for fake shitheads.

[@jamesfurfaro4950]

@@rovosunny1687How is that funny? John Wick is one of the greatest action franchises of all time. Speed? Point Break? The Matrix? There’s no way you’re discounting Keanu.

[@tingkhamphayakoun7546]

He still got it,

[@Shabssaif]

I don't think I would have ever said it for anyone, but God pls don't let this Man age further. Don't want the MI movies to stop coming.

[@crashfan9997]

Yeah Tom's finally aged. Still looked fine in Fallout which is very impressive, he was in his mid 50s then! But comparing him to the first 2 or 3 movies, wow.

[@VibesEdits]

@@crashfan9997 i think its the hair and outfit, but yeah his face has aged. If he gymed more and cleaned up, he'd look 10 yrs younger

[@desertvalleyfilms9136]

@@VibesEditshe is 61 he is getting up there in age

Is that a wig?

[@kat71367]

Brad Pitt sucks

[@phototristan]

Tom Cruise really knows how to basically say nothing while still talking.

[@marchechter5047]

I cant stand his fake religion, but this guy....hes one of a kind when hes in front of a camera. Probably will go down as the best hollywood actor of all time. Im not joking, and this is not sarcasm, these days blockbusters and their "stars" are dead, but this guy seems to be timeless ... from a parallel universe. Hey Tom, do a sequel to Edge of Tomorrow and Oblivion, loved those two.

[@zibtihaj3213]

Harrison ford can’t even carry Cruises jock straps… as far as movie stars are concerned

[@camw9133]

Does Tom even age? Sheesh

[@drummer7557]

I like how Tom is like I can't wait to see RAIDERS...lmao. My Mom still calls all the Indiana Jones Movies that.

[@DeborahMoffett]

Get your trunks off please Tom wooooo wooooo show the sausage 😂😂

[@BuckRolly1]

I think the reason why he didn't answer the question about the music was not because it would annoy his friends; it was because he knew the interviewer would be expecting contempory artists/bands and Tom - being of a certain age - probably didn't know any. Had he mentioned the bands he knew, it would probably have been older artists and he would have come off looking something of a dinosaur, which is why he opted to 🤐🤐🤐 1:15

[@QueenToto99]

But honestly, I am 35 and I wouldn't know 99% of recent artists cause I simply don't listen to new or contemporary stuff tbh. ^^ I really would love to hear what Tom would listens, saw a pic at some point (years back) wearing a Styx-shirt which is pretty neat and that is exactly how I would think what his taste in music is like. ^^

[@thegoldenlight2164]

Plss the interviewer was struggling to get the questions in cause Tom kept on talking 😭💀

[@dynamicdave2647]

Did tom just duck on the name an artist of some songs you listen to- i guess tom doesnt listen to music bc he is too busy )=

Yep Tom 💘 ...talking about smart looking dressed...it would be so cool to see you relax a bit...and get away from those blue or black office's suits and shirts...please honey 💘 free yourself from your straight wardrobe 😏😏 😘
