Growth of Tom Cruise

It's no secret that Tom Cruise is small in height, but this fact is of little importance to the viewer. However, this genetic feature always worried the actor, which was the reason for the appearance of a considerable number of complexes, which later had an impact on the self-esteem and personal life of a celebrity. What is the growth of Tom Cruise, and why are the data in different sources different?

Complex as motivation

Born in 1962 in the family of an actress and construction engineer, Thomas Cruz became the third child. In search of means for existence, parents of the future actor often traveled around America, changing one job after another. Troubles and the lack of normal life led to the fact that in the family increasingly began to arise different disagreements, resulting in quarrels. When Thomas was twelve years old, his mother informed him that his father had left the family. Being an adult, the actor learned that in reality the reason for the parents' divorce was the mother's desire to get rid of her father. Whatever it was, and this episode left a deep psychological trauma on Thomas's heart. The boy decided that somehow it was his fault that the family had broken up. Since then, he has become very critical of himself. As a teenager, Thomas complexed about the low growth. He saw the way out of the situation in sports. Tom was involved in athletics, and several types of martial arts.

Feel like a normal teenager, Thomas Cruz did not allow not only growth, but also a rare disease. From childhood, he was diagnosed with dyslexia. He inherited this disease from his mother. While reading, he missed words in the texts, and in words - letters. Of course, this reflected on the performance. Thomas was listed among the laggards. However, the boy was always distinguished by perseverance and persistence, so he managed to overcome dyslexia. School teenager finished adequately, which allowed him to become a college student. It was here that he first became acquainted with the theater, becoming a member of the drama club. Thomas Cruz, taking part in the productions, realized that theater and cinema - this is what he is ready to devote his life to. However, the problem of growth has not gone anywhere.

Creative way

The real growth of Tom Cruise, which is still preferred by the actor not to be voiced, the directors did not consider it a disadvantage. Already at the age of nineteen he received an offer to star in the film "Infinite Love." By the way, it was in 1981 that he decided to cut his name from Tomas to Tom.

In 1983, the actor for the first time played a major role. The picture "Risky business" made a twenty-one-year-old novice actor celebrity. The subsequent role in the "Best shooter" ensured success. High fees, the love of viewers, an abundance of proposals have increased the actor's self-esteem, but not to such an extent that Tom Cruise announced his parameters, weight and, most importantly, growth. At a mark below 170 centimeters, he does not agree, at least to prove that this parameter is exaggerated by the actor very simply. For this, it is enough to look at the photos on which he was imprinted with his second wife. Nicole Kidman does not hide the growth, and against the background of Tom Cruise, one hundred and ten-centimeter actress looks very high. If you do not take into account shoes on the heel , the growth of the actor is unlikely to exceed 165 centimeters. The growth of his third wife Katie Holmes is also known - 175 centimeters. And the girl also looks next to him high.
