So you thought it was Jamie Foxx who was the reason for Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes’ divorce three years back? Well, it turns out he wasn’t. The Hollywood actor, whose last successful movie was Django Unchained, has finally denied, rather vociferously, that he and the elegant Katie H are an item.

Talking to the media last week he said, “You guys have been trying to make that stick for three years … We’re just good friends.” Alright! The story doesn’t end here. The actress too came with her two-bit on the issue. “There’s a human behind a public person … and it often gets a little confusing and circus-like.” Hmm … Circus-like? Is there a hidden comment in that phrase?
