Connor Cruise doesn’t get all the Caitlyn Jenner fuss
Nicole Kidman and Tom Cruise’s son Connor has put his pretend DJ career on hold to go on a bizarre Twitter rant about Caitlyn Jenner.
The 20-year-old took to social media to express his dismay at the announcement that Jenner will receive the Arthur Ashe Courage Award at this year’s ESPY Awards.
“Really? Winning the AA award for courage? Ashton is gonna come out and yell PUNK’D,” Cruise wrote in the first of a series of since-deleted tweets.
“Don’t get me wrong. Do what you feel like doing and don’t let anyone stop you. But everyone is taking this way too seriously … There are so many more important things that should be talked about … And SO MANY MORE IMPORTANT PEOPLE that actually deserve an award.”
He wrote he was “totally supportive of people staying true to themselves” but thinks “there are just way more things that we as a nation and as a planet should be talking about and working on.”
It then got odd when he listed the things he thinks are more important.
“Like the fact that we are overfishing and in 30 years there will be no more fish. Seems dumb but 85 per cent of the worlds protein is fish,” he wrote.
“Or what about the fact that our planet is becoming less habitable on a daily basis. Yet the population is increasing at an alarming rate.
“ … Or the fact that we all can’t even get along on earth lol. We fight and kill each other. We have war and poverty. This needs to change.”
Thanks for the contribution, Connor.
