The actor appeared at a baseball game with a completely swollen face.
Tom Cruise has set off the alarm. Everyone has wondered what happened to the protagonist of Mission Impossible, who appeared at a baseball game with his son Connor in San Francisco, unrecognizable, with his face swollen and smooth as a doll's. Since then, the networks have burned with all kinds of theories and comments about the actor, who seems to have gone too far in his attempt to look younger.
Many of those attending the game that faced the Dodgers against the Giants could not stop looking at him and wondering what had happened to him. The videos began to appear on the networks, which ended up burning with all kinds of questions and theories. Have you gone too far with the botox? Has it gone too far with hyaluronic acid? Has he stretched out his face or just picked up a few extra pounds that have puffed out his cheeks?
"He looks like a double," some said, "he's just like a squirrel," others commented, but the memes comparing Cruise to Norm McDonald, an American comedian who died a few weeks ago, triumphed above all. "Is he preparing to star in a biopic about him?" Others wondered.
The actor, who will premiere the seventh installment of Mission Impossible in May after hazardous filming, has not given any explanation about his new face.
American and British media, such as the National Enquirer or The Sun, have interviewed plastic surgeons about the retouching that the Top Gun actor has been able to do. Several of them agree that hyaluronic acid has been injected all over his face, although the result gives him the appearance of a wax doll. Others point out that he has undergone a more aggressive treatment with lifting and that, in addition, he is losing hair and undergoing hair transplants.
It is not the first time that there has been speculation about Cruise's retouching, that he seems to resist aging and giving up the scepter of symbol to other younger actors, but he has always denied having an operation or puncture. In an interview with Playboy, he assured that he has never touched up and that he "would never do it."
Rumors about his cosmetic operations began in 2012 and intensified four years later with his appearance at the Bafta Awards, with a swollen face. Some compared him to a hamster in a tuxedo. That same year, the actor Cuba Gooding Jr. assured on a television program that he suspected that Cruise had undergone plastic surgery. "I don't know what he had done but I remember that I surprised him at his house one day with a lot of red dots on his face," he recounted.
