Cruise, Holmes become Alan Partridge fans

Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes are big fans of Alan Partridge, according to the Daily Star.

Holmes has reportedly been impersonating Steve Coogan's hapless Radio Norwich DJ to the amusement of her husband.

Cruise allegedly met Coogan at the Los Angeles premiere of Tropic Thunder and recited one of Partridge's catchphrases.

A source said: "Steve was actually really taken aback by it all because Tom was tickled by the idea of Partridge's sports casual clothing. He kept coming up to Steve and declaring: 'I'm sports casual.'

"How surreal must that be to have Tom Cruise announcing that to you in Hollywood? To be fair, Tom did look a bit Partridge in his jeans and blazer, and seemed to be really happy to take the p*** out of himself."
