Cruise in Top Gun serenade
Tom Cruise apparently serenaded his new wife Katie Holmes by singing the famous song 'You've Lost That Lovin' Feeling', which he performed in 1980s hit film 'Top Gun'.
The Hollywood superstar and his actress wife tied the knot at the Castello Odescalchi in Bracciano, just north of Rome, Italy, over the weekend in front of 150 family and friends.
According to insiders, when DJ Mark Ronson started playing The Righteous Brothers' hit song, Cruise began to recreate the memorable scene in the 1986 film, where his character Maverick sings to Kelly McGillis' Charlie.
Cruise's friend and fellow Scientologist Leah Rimini said Holmes was delighted with her hubby's singing talents, adding: "She was completely touched - laughing, loving him and enjoying him."
The ceremony was presided over by a Scientologist priest in line with Cruise's devout belief in the religion and the couple are currently honeymooning in the Bahamas.
