Heather Locklear Recalls First and Only Date with Tom Cruise

Locklear shared why Cruise's 'baby boy' demeanor didn't align with her 'rock and roll' lifestyle during a 90s Con panel.

  • Heather Locklear and Tom Cruise met during an audition in the 1980s and later went on a single date.
  • Locklear described Cruise as polite and nice but felt his demeanor was too reserved for her 'rock and roll' personality.
  • The date included dancing at Club Lingerie, where Cruise performed his famous 'Risky Business' dance move.
  • Despite finding Cruise 'really cute,' Locklear felt he 'didn't quite cut it' for her.
  • Both actors have since had multiple high-profile marriages and successful careers in Hollywood.
