Cruise, who was greeting some of the 5,000 fans outside the theater with his fiancée actress Katie Holmes, reacted angrily to the prank and repeatedly called the man responsible a "jerk," the IrishExaminer.com reported Sunday. Advertisement Cruise was answering questions from a reporter when a man pretending to be a reporter held a joke microphone to the actor's face and used it to squirt water. The bogus reporter along with three others members of his freelance camera crew were working on a new British TV comedy show. "The incident was for a new Channel 4 entertainment show part of which involves playing comedy pranks on celebrities and on members of the public," said a spokesman for the show. "The water squirting was not intended to cause offense and was very much in a spirit of fun."
