Tom
Cruise Bottom In Best
Mate Poll
Tom
Cruise
has come last in a poll
to find the celebrity
people would most like
to have as their best
mate.
Katie
Holmes's other half and
the father of their new
baby Suri is less
popular than the likes
of hellraiser Jack
Nicholson, heart-throb
Colin Farrell and
Brad
Pitt.
King
Kong actor Jack Black
topped the poll for
Yahoo!
Entertainment.
The
US star pipped Johnny
Depp into second place
followed by Will Smith
and Samuel L
Jackson.
Pirates
of the Caribbean star
Orlando Bloom, Brad Pitt
and Mel
Gibson
all took joint fifth
place. The survey was
carried out before
Gibson made anti-Semitic
remarks and was caught
drink-driving.
Jack
Nicholson was sixth,
followed by Miami Vice
stars Colin Farrell and
Jamie Foxx in joint
seventh.
Tom
Cruise limped into
eighth place in the poll
with just 3% of the
votes.
Yahoo!
Entertainment
spokeswoman Jayne
Cherrington said: "Good
looks and fame may be
important in Hollywood,
but Jack Black has
proved that in the real
world people prefer
someone who combines a
larger-than-life
personality with a
sensitive side. Everyone
has heard of Tom Cruise
and Jack Nicholson but
obviously they're not
viewed as ideal 'friend
material' by people in
the UK. Jack Black seems
to be an all round
favourite - someone who
fans believe they can
have a few beers and a
great night out with as
well as a guy who would
be a good listener and a
shoulder to cry
on."
