Cher claims that she had a three year relationship with actor Tom Cruise, back when she was 36 and very famous and he was a 20 year old actor, but that neither of them have ever talked about it. She says: "It was a long, long time ago and neither one of us ever talked about it and I don't know why. He didn't mention it and I didn't mention it".
She says they broke up because Cruise had to go to Chicago to film 'The Colour Of Money'. "I couldn't go to Chicago and that was kind of the straw that broke the camel's back", she says. "When we were together he was such a private person. Now it's hard for me to look at this person and this press. How many times can I watch him jumping up and down on Oprah's couch?"
