Tom Cruise Wins $10M Defamation Judgment

Tom Cruise won a $10 million defamation judgment against a porn 
actor who allegedly told the French magazine Actustar that he had a 
gay affair with the actor, Cruise's attorney said.

Chad Slater, whose stage name was Kyle Bradford, had said 
previously he never met Cruise and defaulted on the $100 million 
lawsuit in August 2001.

"I hope by defaulting, Mr. Cruise will finally get what he is after 
and I can finally start to put my life back in order," Slater said 
in a statement at the time.

The default motion did not indicate Slater admitted wrongdoing, but 
was an acknowledgment he did not have the money to fight the 
lawsuit and would not contest it.

Slater, who has made a series of porn films and gay-themed 
wrestling videos, could not be located for comment Wednesday.

The $10 million judgment was decided in late December, according to 
Cruise attorney Ricardo Cestero.

"We don't have any idea whether he'll ever have means to pay, but 
we've obtained the judgment, which will hopefully make it clear 
that demeaning Mr. Cruise will not be a successful endeavor," 
Cestero said Wednesday.

Cruise plans to donate to charity any money he receives from the 
judgment, Cestero added.
