Los Angeles - Ozzy Osbourne's wife Sharon says she will help Tom Cruise sue the TV crew who squirted him with water, Ananova.com reports.
Promoting his latest Steven Spielberg film, War of the Worlds, Cruise was in central London's Leicester Square on Sunday evening with his fiancee, Katie Holmes, when a mock journalist used a fake microphone to spray Cruise's face with water.
Cruise was answering reporters' questions in front of some 5 000 fans when the incident occurred.
"Why would you do that?" the actor asked after the prank. "Do you like thinking less of people, is that it?"
After a silence, the fake reporter went to walk away but Cruise said: "Don't run away.
"That's incredibly rude. I'm here giving you an interview and you do that," Cruise said. "You're a jerk ... jerk ... you're a jerk."
Sharon was apparently treated to a similar prank three weeks ago.
The crew from Britain's Channel 4 sprayed her with water outside a restaurant in London.
Word is she got revenge by throwing a bucket of water over the culprit, reports Contactmusic.com.
Sharon has now offered Cuise's lawyers the paperwork from her incident.
She reportedly said: "I was really mortified that one adult could do that to another. I was totally stunned."
