00:00 "I just try to do everything I can, use every tool that I have to entertain the audience."
00:05 Tom Cruise was front and center at Victoria Beckham's Milestone 50th birthday party, just
00:10 a few days after snubbing his own daughter's big day. On April 20th, the former Spice Girl
00:15 and fashion designer, recovering from a broken foot, celebrated turning 50 in style with
00:19 a blowout bash, featuring a star-studded guest list.
00:22 In a sea of celebrities, Tom reportedly stole the show. Thanks to his attention-grabbing
00:26 dance moves, the Top Gun star arrived at Oswald's, a private club in London, to attend the glitzy
00:31 affair dressed to the nines in a full tuxedo, while in the U.K. filming the next Mission
00:35 Impossible.
00:36 Once the party really got going, Tom reportedly showed off his unexpected breakdancing skills.
00:41 One source even informed the Daily Mail that guests were "absolutely dumbfounded" by the
00:45 committed performance. This did, however, make fans wonder why he didn't show up in
00:49 the same way for his daughter Suri a few days earlier.
00:52 On April 18th, Suri Cruz celebrated her 18th birthday in New York City, where she currently
00:56 lives with her mom, Katie Holmes.
00:58 "She makes every day great and awesome and better and I know myself more because of her."
01:04 Tom's relationship with Katie has been rocky since long before their contentious 2012 divorce,
01:09 especially given his ongoing ties to the Church of Scientology. And in recent years, Tom seems
01:14 to be on the outs with Suri, too. Tom made his priorities clear when he didn't bother
01:18 to travel across the pond from the U.K. to celebrate his daughter's milestone birthday.
01:23 However, according to insider info passed on to the Daily Mail, Tom's absence from Suri's
01:27 celebration may have been just what the birthday girl really wanted. One source claims,
01:31 "Suri will not have any contact with her father, despite being 18. And even if he called, she
01:36 would not answer. He does not exist to Katie or Suri, and his daughter does not want to
01:40 rely on him for anything. She feels that she has one parent and that is her mother."
01:45 If this accurately represents their family dynamics, then perhaps the A-lister chose
01:49 to spend the weekend partying with friends to distract himself from his increasingly
01:52 tough relationship with his daughter. While he may seem like an unexpected star to steal
01:56 the spotlight at a party hosted by Victoria and David Beckham, these A-listers actually
02:01 go way back. In fact, Tom has been pals with the Beckhams for over two decades. However,
02:06 after enjoying a close friendship for years, there were rumors of a feud that apparently
02:09 destroyed their relationship following a mysterious fight that occurred sometime in 2013.
02:14 Although they didn't avoid each other in the ensuing years, the trio reportedly wasn't
02:18 as close. Clearly, though, Tom's friendship with the couple is all patched up these days,
02:22 and he was sure to make it known to the world by celebrating Victoria's birthday in a big
02:26 way.
02:27 While Tom's presence and breakdancing routine might have been the center of attention at
02:30 Victoria's big birthday celebration, from the sound of it, there were plenty of other
02:34 memorable moments, too. Victoria's fellow Spice Girls were all there to celebrate Posh
02:38 Spice. The group even danced together to their 1997 hit "Stop."
02:42 "You must be Victoria."
02:43 "Yeah, I'm Victoria, and I'm Posh Spice."
02:45 Clearly, Victoria is not short on A-list friends and family members who are eager to celebrate
02:50 with her as she kicks off a new decade. Victoria, of course, had her husband David by her side,
02:54 as well as their four children. While things may remain frosty between Tom and Suri, he
02:58 was at least able to spend the weekend celebrating the Beckhams and burying the rumored hatchet
03:02 with them. Hopefully, there will be more mended relationships in the future.
