Tom Cruise is not holding back when it comes to his adoration for Janet Jackson.
The "Top Gun" star attended the world premiere of "Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One" in Rome on Sunday and shared that he spent his day off last month to see Michael Jackson's sister live.
"That was a moment, yeah, that was my night off. That was my last break," Cruise told Entertainment Tonight. "I just want to tell you to go see Janet."
Cruise emphasized that he was enthusiastic during Jackson's performance. "I'm right in there, yeah, come on! It's Janet, she's a legend," he told the outlet.

"I do pinch myself every day. I don't take anything for granted," he added.
"I remember being 18 years old, making ‘Taps’, and I remember being four years old and thinking I want to make movies, and I want to travel the world, and now here we are in Rome," he continued. "It's something that I am constantly [feeling like], 'This is so out of body' and ‘What is happening? This is wild’... I just feel very privileged."
In May, Cruise's co-star, Vanessa Kirby, shared details about how the star has "no fear" when filming his own stunts.

"He did it many times in one day," Kirby told Variety at the time. "He did it consecutively… and repeatedly so he could capture all the different angles and sides of it."
If Cruise ever gets nervous, he sure doesn't show it.
"He was just so calm," the actress recalled. "He had no fear. He just found it exhilarating. That kind of belief in cinema and what one could achieve and his passion for it is so inspiring. He kind of believes he can do the impossible and then he does… I love being a part of the franchise. I’m really excited to come back."
