Tom Cruise and Ana de Armas fuel romance rumors after stepping out in London again
Tom Cruise and Ana de Armas are heating things up across the pond.
On Friday night, the actor, 62, and actress, 36, were spotted arriving at the London Heliport by helicopter. The pair was all smiles and fresh-faced in the U.K., rocking casual ensembles.
The "Top Gun: Maverick" star sported black jeans and a brown button-down shirt that was partially opened as he held a dark jacket and carried a backpack. Meanwhile, the "Blonde" starlet wore jeans, a white T and matching white sneakers paired with a black trench coat. The stars were seen chatting and laughing with Heliport staff.
Fox News Digital reached out to a spokesperson for Cruise and de Armas for comment.
Cruise and de Armas were previously spotted together at the same heliport on Thursday night, People magazine reported. According to the outlet, they were also photographed together in London last month during a night out. At the time, de Armas was seen holding two bags of takeout from a restaurant as they greeted fans. They then hopped into a taxi together.
At the time, a source told People magazine that Cruise and de Armas were having dinner with their agents to discuss "potential collaborations down the line." The insider claimed that they "appeared to have no romantic connection" and were "just friends."
The Cuban-born de Armas fueled romance rumors in December when she was photographed holding hands with Manuel Anido Cuesta, the stepson of Cuban President Miguel Díaz-Canel Bermúdez, while out in Madrid. They were first seen together in November when they shared a kiss in the city, People reported.
The outlet noted that de Armas grew up in Cuba but also holds Spanish citizenship through her grandparents. In 2016, she told Vanity Fair that moving to Spain to pursue an acting career was "the only way I had to get out" of life in Cuba.
Before Cuesta, de Armas was linked to Tinder executive Paul Boukadakis. She dated Ben Affleck in 2020, but the couple parted ways in 2021.
In 2023, de Armas gushed about Cruise's "mind-blowing" stunt work. She has appeared in several action films, but the duo haven't appeared in any films together – yet.

"It's demanding and painful and your body is hurting everywhere, but it's also very rewarding as I saw myself getting better at it," she told USA Today. "Besides, it's fun. And if I just go say my lines and someone else does the stunts, I'm missing that fun."
Cruise has been married three times. He wed his first wife, Mimi Rogers, in 1987 before divorcing in 1990. Cruise was married to Nicole Kidman for 11 years and then wed Katie Holmes in 2006. The couple split in 2012.
In August, singer-songwriter Victoria Canal took to Instagram to shut down rumors that she was dating Cruise.
"Guys, this is literally bonkers, but apparently the tabloids think I am dating Tom Cruise. I'm deceased," the 26-year-old wrote. "Let's just stop this in its tracks – I'm sorry to bum you out but I am not dating the man, albeit a lovely person and artist… Never thought I would have to clarify that out loud in my life.
"In all seriousness guys, Tom has been nothing but a respectful and encouraging person and mentor, much like Chris Martin, my dad, my music teachers and otherwise people that have learned a lot from living. And again, I am friends with all kinds of people who are very different to me. You learn a lot if you're open to life bringing you those teachers."
Cruise's upcoming film "Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning" will premiere on May 23.

Why Addison Rae Took a Step Back from Social Media: 'I Felt So Misunderstood'
Addison Rae is opening up about why she's taken a step back from social media The "Headphones On" singer shared that she's learned to value her privacy following her rise to fame on TikTok "Being misunderstood is definitely annoying and it does get on my nerves sometimes," she saidAddison Rae is taking a step back from social media. During a recent appearance on Therapuss with Jake Shane, the 24-year-old singer opened up about why she's stopped sharing so much of herself on social media platforms, following her rise to fame as a dancer on TikTok. "I felt so misunderstood," she shared of her time on social media, "but I was sharing so much." "Sometimes you do what you need to do to get where you want to go," she continued. "I wasn't showing every part of myself, as one mostly doesn't, you know. There are elements of yourself that surely you don't share online that aren't bad — they just aren't things you're willing to share or talk about or, you know, show." Rae shared that over the course of her young career, she realized that having a sense of privacy is one of the most important things to her. "I think privacy becomes really important over time," she continued. "Like, 'OK, what can I allow people access to that isn't going to hurt me? Or they're not going to use to make me feel conflicted in my own life decisions that I have to make?'" "Being misunderstood is definitely annoying and it does get on my nerves sometimes, but I think over time, I've realized that if somebody's commenting that 'I'm not this' [or] 'This is not who I am.' ... Or when I was 19 I was more authentic," the "Headphones On" singer added. "I'm like, okay, well, I just moved to LA. I'm like, geez. I was from a small town, of course I didn't experience a lot of things or have the opportunity to even figure out who I was in those those ways," she continued. "Because it was life whenever you grow up in a small town." In another part of her conversation with Shane, Rae also shared she's applying the idea of "slowing things down" or taking a step back when it comes to other parts of her life so she can avoid feeling "too exposed." "It happens very frequently with a lot of artists," she shared. "They feel like they're too exposed or they need to pull back or, you know, they're too scared to get overdone or feel like you're too in front of everybody's face and that people will get tired of you."

"But I feel like with projects that are delayed or a little bit later or make you wait, it's almost like, 'Okay, not everything has to be now.' And I can feel comfort in the fact that something's coming and not so pressured to make something happen now." Rae most recently released her self-titled debut LP Addison on June 6. During an interview on Quen Blackwell's YouTube series Feeding Starving Celebrities, she opened up about the wide range of topics that the record covers — which influenced its simple name. Rae thought about self-titling the album "for a really long time," noting, "when you do hear all of the music like straight through, there's not really a title that like encompasses all of it." "Everybody that I played it to as well they were just like, 'Oh it just sounds like just like you. Like it just sounds like music you would make,'" she recalled. 'I don't really know what else to call it and so I was like, 'Maybe then the album is just my name.'" Read the original article on People

People deletes Olivia Munn story after Ms. Rachel comments draw 'threats'
In a rare move, People magazine deleted a story from its website on Wednesday after it triggered 'violent' threats against its subject, the actress Olivia Munn, and her family. The story was about Munn's distaste for children's television and bore a headline specifically citing the popular YouTuber Ms. Rachel — which apparently triggered some fans. 'There is no excuse for these abhorrent attacks, and we will always prioritize safety above all else,' the publication acknowledged in a statement explaining the decision to remove a story. It's an unusual move for any news outlet to delete, rather than amend or update, a story — even People, which is generally considered a friendly go-to outlet for celebrities to share their stories. When asked for further information about removing the article, a People representative pointed back to its original statement. The post was drawn from the magazine's recent interview with Munn for a cover story, which published online June 4. The 44-year-old actress, who was promoting her new Apple TV+ series, talked about life with her husband, 42-year-old comedian John Mulaney, their children — a 3-year-old boy and 8-month-old girl — as well as her 2023 breast cancer diagnosis. People also published several separate exclusive items using material from the Munn interview, including one in which she discussed her fertility treatments, and another post headlined, 'Olivia Munn Doesn't Let Her Kids Watch Ms. Rachel. Here's Why.' In the story, according to sites that repeated quotes from it before it was deleted, Munn shared her irritation with children's TV programming. She specifically cited Ms. Rachel, a major celebrity to young children and their parents. 'I know kids love [Ms. Rachel], but the thing is, if I can't watch it, I'm not going to spend the rest of my life going crazy,' Munn said, and added she was not a fan of 'Blue's Clues' or 'Spider-Man' either. (She did admit a tolerance for 'Daniel Tiger's Neighborhood,' because it helped her son prepare for the arrival of a baby sister.) However, the framing of the People headline drew attention on social media, especially given that Ms. Rachel, whose full name is Rachel Griffin Accurso, has been in the news for speaking out about the plight of children in Gaza — though it's unclear if this topic was even addressed in the People story. All of this was surely heightened by the strong feelings many fans harbor about Mulaney and Munn's relationship, and its timing relative to his divorce from an artist, Anna Marie Tendler, with her own significant social media following. Various publications and social media accounts started regurgitating Munn's comments, and Accurso herself expressed disappointment when she left a comment on People's Instagram post, now disappeared as well: 'WHO CARES?! I'd rather you cover me advocating for kids in Gaza who are literally starving, largest cohort of child amputees in modern history, thousands & thousands killed — no medical care, no education, no homes… do better!!!' Accurso wrote, according to multiple reports. 'Not against [Munn] at all and don't care that she doesn't want to watch the show — all my love to her and her family — disappointed in the outlets.' Later, she wrote on her own Instagram account that she and Munn had spoken and were on good terms. 'Please be kind to Olivia & her precious family,' Accurso wrote. 'I don't believe in hate, attacks or hurtful comments.' Munn also criticized the coverage. 'To Ms Rachel and your fans, I hear and respect the passion behind your support. I never anticipated the media would single out one small thing I said and distort it like they have,' she wrote in an Instagram story earlier this week. 'Every parent understands the importance of finding meaningful programming that helps us connect with our kids. I don't want something taken out of context to be a moment that steals even a minute of joy for anyone.' Mulaney weighed in Wednesday, calling for a stop to the 'violent and threatening' comments that Munn had been receiving in online comments and direct messages. 'An innocent comment my wife Olivia Munn made about what children's programs we like has somehow — unbelievably — been conflated with not caring about the deaths of children in Gaza,' he posted on Instagram. 'The people doing this are so wildly out of line and so unhelpful to any conversation. You took a nothing comment to a dark and dangerous place. This kind of behavior isn't activism.' Accurso has been creating educational children's content on YouTube, where she has more than 15.2 million subscribers, since 2019. With the help of silly and cheerful music, Ms. Rachel teaches children how to spell and use the bathroom, while also offering lessons on emotional support. Outside of her YouTube show, Accurso has been outspoken about Gaza, which led to backlash from right-wing media commentators and StopAntisemitism, a prominent pro-Israel group, which called on the U.S. attorney general to investigate the children's entertainer. (Accurso said earlier this month that she stands against 'all forms of hate.') But, Accurso told WBUR, 'I wouldn't be Ms. Rachel if I didn't deeply care about all kids. And I would risk everything, and I will risk my career over and over to stand up for them.'

Sam Rockwell Backed Out of 'G.I. Jane' After Drunken Night Out with Star Demi Moore When She 'Shaved Our Heads'
Sam Rockwell was cast in the 1997 action film G.I. Jane, but ultimately dropped out before filming began Rockwell said in an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live that the training to portray a Navy SEAL was so intense he ultimately decided against the part While he didn't stay for filming, he did manage to have a memorable night with the film's star, Demi MooreSam Rockwell was nearly in the 1997 action film G.I. Jane — and while he didn't stay for filming, he did manage to have a memorable night with the film's star, Demi Moore. In an interview on Jimmy Kimmel Live, Rockwell, 56, said part of his reasoning for leaving the film was the brutal training required. "Well, I realized that when you play a Navy SEAL in BUD/S training, you have to be in the water a lot. So I probably should have read the script more thoroughly," he said. "I was in the water a little more than I wanted to be, and I was really, really skinny at the time, and I didn't have a lot of body fat on me, and I was getting early hyperthermia." Rockwell added: "I did the boot camp, and then I split." But despite the fact that he left before filming began, he did get to meet the film's star, Moore. "Demi Moore had just done Striptease, the movie," he said. "And she got a strip joint, and she got all these strippers and the Navy SEALs and the actors, and got us drunk on tequila — and the strippers and Demi Moore shaved our heads and we got drunk with Navy SEALs and got lap dances." Never miss a story — sign up for to stay up-to-date on the best of what PEOPLE has to offer, from celebrity news to compelling human interest stories. Moore starred as Lt. Jordan McNeil in the 1997 film, famously shaving her head before filming began. Rockwell, meanwhile, recently appeared on season 3 of The White Lotus as an old friend of Walton Goggins' mysterious, eccentric character Rick. His longtime partner Leslie Bibb — who starred in the show — has said he "got cast at the last minute" for the role, which included a very memorable monologue. "I read all eight [episodes] and I remember when I got to this monologue and this scene and I remember thinking, 'I've never seen anything like this on television,' and I felt like it's what Mike [White] was really trying to talk about with this show ... He comes in and he's like, 'Here's my truth' and he's unapologetic," Bibb said in a March appearance on CBS Mornings. Read the original article on People
