Tom's Learning Penelope's Lingo


A-list actor TOM CRUISE is making the ultimate "romantic gesture" to his new love Spanish actress Penélope Cruz - by learning her language. Cruise, 38, is following in the footsteps of his pal MELANIE GRIFFITH who learned Spanish after falling for Latino heart-throb ANTONIO BANDERAS.

American gossip queen LIZ SMITH says, "Tom is learning the lingo and Penelope feels it so romantic. "(RM/WNTEX/KMW)
