Cruise hopes that the new lifts will alert the world that he is ready to begin dating again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For many years, the diminutive actor has worn special shoes to make him appear taller, especially when in the presence of taller actresses such as, well, all of them. However, despite what some may call a hinderance, Cruise has still managed to have a good life. \u201cMany people would have just given up if they had found themselves in Tom\u2019s situation, height-wise,\u201d said sociologist Dr. Meghan Pare. \u201cI commend him for overcoming his disability and becoming one of the best midget actors since Billy Barty. \u201dHe does, however, feel the need to look taller and will do anything to accomplish that. Including jumping on couches.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The new shoes discretely add several inches of height, and are custom made by an undisclosed manufacturer. \u201cWe do not discuss Mr. Cruise\u2019s footwear,\u201d said publicist Joanie Weston. \u201cWe will say, however, that the connection he has to little people everywhere has put him in contact with some fantastic little elfin cobblers.\u201d It is believed that the amount of height added to the shoes has increased because like most people, Tom is shrinking as he ages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI will only comment on the fact that I am ready to begin dating again,\u201d said Cruise when asked about the elevator shoes. \u201cI probably don\u2019t even need to say it, because these shoes are screaming it! Can you even hear me from way up here? Anyway, I think it is safe to say that I will do whatever it takes to make my female companions feel comfortable. Though, I would really like to find a leggy model who would be willing to have six inches of her femurs removed. I\u2019d also kind of like it if she had a scruffy beard, broad shoulders and a penis.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>HOLLYWOOD, CA&nbsp;&#8211; As the arrangements of his divorce to Katie Holmes were put in place, Tom Cruise took his first step toward single life by buying a new pair of elevator shoes.
