Lets Get This Party Started
Wacko Dupes Cruise as Heath's Dad

Tom Cruise and Heath LedgerIt's almost too sick to say, but an impostor posing as Heath Ledger's father got Tom Cruise to console him over the phone, and nearly convinced John Travolta to buy him a plane ticket.

The New York Post reports that the unnamed hoaxster even got the Frank E. Campbell Funeral Home, where Heath's body was held, to book him a hotel room at the Carlyle Hotel, and talked to Tom Cruise directly, who consoled him, not knowing who he was.

The crazy person also reached Travolta, and reportedly almost got him to pay for a flight from Oz. Heath's actual father, Kim Ledger, is in New York now in advance of the burial.

J.Lo – Not Pushin' Just Yet


Jennifer Lopez and Marc AnthonyShe may be close, but Jennifer Lopez still hasn't started giving birth to her twins, despite reports.

Marc Anthony's rep confirms to Usmagazine.com that reports saying Mrs. Anthony is in labor are "not true ... Everybody figures it is happening around now so they have started throwing out the story hoping they will be right."

TMZ contacted numerous New York area hospitals and medical sources, and there's no word yet of any little Lopezes.

5. Not sure if I believe this story about an imposter contacting TC, JT...how likely is it that the imposter got all of their phone numbers, muchless actually spoke to them over the phone?

This may be just another PR stunt by Camp Cruise to get sympathy. It's just really hard to believe anything that he, his robot, or his reps say. None of them have any credibiltiy anymore. I

13. This story about the imposter posing as Heath Ledgers father, did they (Tom & John) know the Ledger family? I'll bet not, says more about how stupid and arrogant Tom Cruise and John Trovolta are. Why would a greaving parent contact them, if they didn't know them? But their scientologist, so they know they and only they can help. SUCKERS!!!
