Today is your day.” But Matt Lauer, despite his many years as a TV host — asking the hard-hitting questions and taking no B.S. from men who could have had him killed by secret police 10 times over — had never felt his heart flutter in his chest the way it did this morning.

Any closet Tom Cruise fans out there? Come out, it’s OK! I’ll admit: I am a believer in the star power of the Greatest Movie Star Of All Time. My debate partner — Daniel Holloway, national news editor at Back Stage — thinks he sucks, even going so far as to proclaim: “Maverick is dead.”

Bill O’Reilly Is My Weird Celebrity Crush
A few years ago my friend and I were sitting in a dimly lit Irish bar on the north side of Chicago discussing our crushes of the moment. The usual suspects were mentioned: A cute guy from college, the bartender, a funny guy from work. Maybe we had just a little too much to drink that night, but no matter the self-preserving explanation, we somehow ended up confessing to each other a strange and delightful attraction to Bill O’Reilly.
