Buzz Time Machine: Tom Cruise Sings in Top Gun

Becky Kirsch — Fri, 16 Dec 2011 11:54:21 PST

Long before he was doing his own stunts in the Mission: Impossible movies, Tom Cruise was a fresh-faced young actor with a talent for wooing the ladies. Case in point: his iconic turn as Maverick in Top Gun, where he and Goose (Anthony Edwards) belt out "You've Lost That Lovin' Feelin'" to get some attention from the girl he's been eying. Whether or not you've seen this movie, chances are you're familiar with the scene, so why not watch it again?

Buzz In: What's Your Favorite Movie Sing-along Scene?

BuzzSugar — Fri, 06 Jun 2008 16:01:39 PDT

Sigh. Movie sing-alongs. They are so good. When Top Gun was first out, if I wasn't head-over-heels for Tom Cruise already, his belting out of "You've Lost That Lovin' Feelin'" to Kelly McGillis would have sealed the deal.

And come on, who didn't want to run down to their local dive bar, take some shots and belt "Sweet Caroline" after that fantastic scene in Beautiful Girls? Also, I will never tire of the part in My Best Friend's Wedding when that gorgeous man, Rubert Everett, kicks off an all-restaurant sing-along to "Say A Little Prayer for You."

For me, sing-alongs can take a good scene and make it the best scene. They tap into that basic human desire to break into spontaneous song and dance when the mood strikes. OK, maybe that's just my basic desire.

So tell me, what's your favorite sing-along scene of all time?

After the jump, I just had to include the clip from My Best Friend's Wedding (note the people waving their lobster claw arms in the background toward the end!), so

What's Buzzworthy: Action Movies

BuzzSugar — Sat, 14 Jul 2007 11:00:00 PDT

As I mentioned last week when I challenged you to Buzzworthy your favorite action movies, summertime feels like the best season to grab the popcorn, find some air-conditioning and get swept away by the blockbustery goodness of a high-octane flick. I can't wait to update my Netflix queue, since I forgot all about some of these oldies but greats.

The Rock
One of my personal favorites, Linda McP has this to say about her pick: "Sean Connery, Nicholas Cage, and Ed Harris are perfectly cast in this film about domestic terrorism (all of San Francisco is held hostage by a deranged war hero played by Harris). Parts of the film are unrealistic, for sure, but the interplay between and among the characters makes this film a worthwhile pick. Connery just gets better as he ages!"

Kill Bill, Volume I
Another favorite of mine, this was chosen by tdamji who writes, "It's great to see a woman in a starring role in an action movie. There don't seem to be very many like that. Lucy Liu is great in this, as is Uma Thurman."

Several more if you

read more Top Gun Sweet Tea picked this lovable oldie starring a young, hot Tom Cruise. She writes, "A classic action flick - never gets old."
Speed Buzzworthied by both Hmorris and missyosigirl, who can forget Sandra Bullock and Keanu Reeves' collaborating to save a bus full of people from a fiery death?
The Seven Samurai I should really check out this classic action movie from 1954, which was suggested by Fab_Kitty. Samurai movies often make fantastic action films with quality plots and characterization, what with all that courage and honor. Fab_Kitty says, "Akira Kurosawa's masterpiece Seven Samurai has enough training and fighting to satisfy action film enthusiasts. It's also a film with lovely cinematography, a thoughtful pace, and a moving narrative."

Jewelry Brings Adriana Lima, Cate Blanchett, and Ewan McGregor Together in Geneva

Allie Merriam — Wed, 18 Jan 2012 12:37:09 PST

Adriana Lima, Cate Blanchett, and Ewan McGregor were drawn to Geneva yesterday for the SIHH High Jewellery Fair. After browsing the watches and gems on display in the afternoon, the trio dressed up for the night's IWC Schaffhausen "Top Gun" gala. Adriana was decked out in Rene Caovilla shoes and a tight white dress that was met with approval from the guys - Ewan checked out Adriana, and was hilariously caught in the act! Adriana was happy to make the rounds with other stars like British actress Rosamund Pike, who will star opposite Tom Cruise in his upcoming One Shot. Also there was Brazilian author Paulo Coelho; Adriana tweeted about being particularly excited to meet him.

The Swiss trip comes just after an exciting week in LA for Ewan. He attended Sunday's Golden Globes, and was spotted making the afterparty rounds with wife Eve Mavrakis following the show. Ewan also attended last Wednesday's People's Choice Awards and did a great deal of press for his movie Haywire, which is out Friday. Ewan dished on the all-out fight scenes in the new Steven Soderbergh movie when we caught up with him at the junket one week ago.

Reese Witherspoon's "Om"-azing Arm Workout

Self — Wed, 14 Dec 2011 04:15:35 PST

We are pumped to share one of our fave stories from Self here on FitSugar!

Reese Witherspoon may be one of Hollywood's most in-demand leading ladies, but don't expect the Oscar winner to solicit any special treatment during her tri-weekly yoga sessions.

"We've done private training a few times but she usually comes to the group class," says YogaHop owner Matthew Reyes, who has trained Witherspoon for the past five years. "I treat Reese the same as I treat everyone else but I'm glad she feels comfortable enough to come in with the general public."

Reyes enthusiastically endorses the 35-year-old's other passion (running) as a perfect complement to yoga but warns, "Women across the board, especially runners, have a much better developed lower body than upper body." That's why he pushes the actress to find her edge in every power yoga session. "My goal is, if someone were to work out until their arms were exhausted, take a day off then do it again, take a day off and do it again. You will see some really nice development in your muscular tone."

Want to get strong, sexy arms like the Water For Elephants star? Add these four moves to your regular routine three times a week and you'll be flaunting Witherspoon-like guns in no time.

See the moves after the break.

Tom Cruise and Paula Patton continued their traveling ways with a stop in Munich today. They've been promoting Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol around the world and have already popped up in Russia, India, and Japan. Tom and Paula were joined by costars Anil Kapoor and Simon Pegg at their movie's debut at the Dubai Film Festival earlier this week, but the trip wasn't just about work. Tom also visited the Taj Mahal and posed for a few pictures with a crowd of fans. His action-packed franchise is currently in the spotlight, but there's also exciting news that Tom is working on a Top Gun sequel.
