"And this is news?" is the question we often see in the comments on news stories about tabloids and pop culture. And, obviously, these aren't news stories that make the front pages of newspapers, but they are issues we often discuss with friends or family around a table or at the bar. And this is what we do in this podcast: we go to a venue to review some news from the social chronicle that serves not only to keep up with the most important gossip, but also to talk about love, friendship, and breakups.

Tom Cruise has declined to be one of President Donald Trump's honorees at the Kennedy Center Honors, the annual awards ceremony recognizing performing artists who contribute the most to American culture.

Several American media outlets are reporting that Tom Cruise (63) and Ana de Armas (37) are planning an intimate wedding. Rumors about their relationship have been growing after they were seen together on several occasions, such as having dinner on Valentine's Day in London or sailing together along the Menorcan coast.

New photos have emerged showing Tom Cruise and Ana de Armas spending time together. After being spotted in London's Soho for Valentine's Day on February 14, the actors—aged 63 and 37, respectively—have been spotted again on a summer getaway. The magazine Hello! published some images this Wednesday in which they are seen sailing on a boat in the surroundings of Ciutadella (Menorca), which according to the magazine reinforces the theory of a possible relationship beyond friendship and work.

A new impossible mission carried out by Tom Cruise. The American actor, considered by many to be Hollywood's last great movie star, will receive an honorary Oscar during the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences' Governors Awards gala on Sunday, November 16. "Tom Cruise's incredible commitment to the filmmaking community, the theatrical experience, and the specialist community has inspired us," the Academy said in its statement. This will be Cruise's first Oscar, having been nominated four times in the past: as an actor for Born on July 4th (1989), Jerry Maguire (1996) and Magnolia (1999) and as a producer for Top Gun: Maverick (2022).

It's been almost thirty years since Tom Cruise became Ethan Hunt, the protagonist of the film version of an old television series. Mission: Impossible It began as a saga of blockbusters an auteur, perhaps to distinguish itself from the uniformizing model of the Bond franchise, but it also ended up assuming a defined style. The latest installments have offered some memorable moments of contemporary action cinema: impressive scenes, accompanied by abundant doses of humor and tinged with some moments of watery eyes and emotionality between the hero and the characters around him. It was all implausible and schematic, but at the same time there was something prodigious about it.

In 1996, in the first installment of the saga Mission: ImpossibleEthan Hunt, the character played by Tom Cruise, was just another agent on a mission in Prague that goes awry. Three decades and seven installments later, Tom Cruise is no longer just another star, nor is Ethan Hunt just another secret agent. The actor has become a kind of messiah of entertainment cinema designed to be projected on the big screen and with impressive scenes shot in real locations, and Hunt is now an almost mythological hero with the manifest destiny of making the impossible possible and saving the world from certain destruction. Such a heavy burden to carry that only an actor with Cruise's almost pathological self-esteem and determination could have taken on without the film descending into ridicule.

Cannes's power to attract Hollywood stars was once again evident when this Wednesday's festival lineup featured Robert De Niro, Quentin Tarantino, and Tom Cruise, all of whom are leading figures for various reasons.

"I'm doing it for myself and especially for my children. I want them to know who their grandfather was," the actor explained.
