Tom Cruise Riled by Dr. Drew

Dr. Drew Pinsky, star of Celebrity Rehab and Love Line, has never been afraid to give a diagnosis. Vocal in his opinions but always clinical in his delivery, Drew has charmed many with his obvious caring nature - though it’s often couched in logic.

Even when you’re a celebrated man of medicine, you have to be careful when you talk Tom Cruise. Dr. Drew recently mentioned the actor’s name. Let the media back-and-forth war begin!

This all has stemmed from an interview with Pinsky which appears in Playboy magazine. Dr. Drew made this comment: “A lot of people in the public eye who behave strangely have mental illness we can learn from, and much of it is based on childhood trauma, without a doubt.” He continued: “Take a guy like Tom Cruise. Why would somebody be drawn into a cultish kind of environment like Scientology? To me, that’s a function of a very deep emptiness, and suggests serious neglect in childhood - maybe some abuse, but mostly neglect.” The tenor of the comments reflects Drew’s usual tone.
