Tom Cruise Friends Urge Him To Slow Down

Tom Cruise's loved ones have urged him to slow down his work schedule for his health.

Tom Cruise's loved ones have urged him to slow down.

Following his split from Katie Holmes in June family and friends are concerned about the 'Mission: Impossible' star, who has been focusing fully on his career since the separation.

Britain's Grazia magazine reports: ''Tom's friends and family have urged him to take a break, but he has brushed off their concern.

''He is refusing to slow down and is trying to soldier on. He doesn't seem to be himself. He hasn't been working out like he normally does and doesn't appear to be eating well at all. His clothes just hang off him.''

Tom's hectic schedule could even be affecting his relationship with his friends for the worse.

The source went on to say: ''His way of dealing with this is to throw himself into his work, but as a result he's not looking after himself and he risks cutting himself off from people who care about him and want to make sure he's OK.''

The 50-year-old father-of-three has reportedly lost 14 lbs.

The death of his 'Top Gun' director colleague Tony Scott could only make matters more complicated.

The actor released a statement saying: ''Tony was my dear friend and I will really miss him...

''My deepest sorrow and thoughts are with his family at this time.''

Tom Cruise Pays Tribute To Film Director Tony Scott

TOM Cruise praised Tony Scott as a "creative visionary" as he added his voice to the tributes paid to the director, who jumped to his death from a bridge in Los Angeles.

The 68-year-old, originally from North Shields, was best known for action-packed Hollywood blockbusters such as Top Gun and Days Of Thunder, which both starred Tom.

Tom, who became a major name after being cast in the lead for Top Gun, said he "will really miss him".

"He was a creative visionary whose mark on film is immeasurable. My deepest sorrow and thoughts are with his family at this time."

Tony, younger brother of film-maker Ridley Scott, leapt from the Vincent Thomas Bridge in LA and his death is being treated as suicide.

There had been reports that Tony Scott was suffering from inoperable brain cancer, but the Los Angeles Coroner's office has said his family were not aware of any such illness.

Denzel Washington, frequently the leading man in his films including Crimson Tide and The Taking Of Pelham 123, said: "Tony Scott was a great director, a genuine friend and it is unfathomable to think that he is now gone.

"He had a tremendous passion for life and for the art of film-making and was able to share this passion with all of us through his cinematic brilliance," he added.

Tony was behind numerous slick action movies and worked with some of the biggest names in the film world, including John Travolta and Gene Hackman.

His other films included box-office hits such as True Romance, Crimson Tide, Enemy Of The State and Man On Fire.
