Tom Cruise Returns To Oprah Winfrey Show On Risky Business Anniversary

Couch jumping Tom Cruise is slated to return to "The Oprah Winfrey Show," nearly three years after an appearance that generated endless YouTube parodies and jokes,

The two-part show will coincide with the 25th anniversary of Cruise's movie "Risky Business." Ms. Winfrey will interview Cruise from his home in Telluride, Colorado for the first show on May 2, her production company said.

On May 5 he will appear in Oprah's Chicago studio. Cruise became the butt of jokes after a May 2005 appearance on her show where he repeatedly jumped on her couch, saying that his love for his girlfriend, and now wife, Katie Holmes, was "beyond cool."

"Risky Business" premiered in 2003 with a then very young Tom Cruise in the starring role. The film revolved around young Joel who had all the normal teenage fantasies in life - cars, girls, sex and money. When his parents left for a week long vacation, all his fantasies came true.

Cruise has also recently been lampooned about his association with the "Church Of Scientology", and his over-the-top promotional video he did that was leaked to the press. Spewing nonsense and using Church Of Scientologist slang and code words used to describe every aspect of the "people" on the outside of the Church who were not enlightened.

The two part Oprah Winfrey special is scheduled to air on May 2 and May 5, 2008
