{{/usCountry}}"I remembered like, 'Oh that's right, he played this character in the Rock of Ages movie.' So I'm very rarely at a loss for words, but I can't wrap my mind around this surreal moment," revealed Hardwick on The Jennifer Hudson Show.
Hardwick further shared how Cruise and he performed a duet and together sang the popular 1984 hit by British-American rock band Foreigner, which Stacee Jaxx sings in the show.
"And all of a sudden, out of nowhere, Tom Cruise goes, 'I want to know what love is,'" revealed Hardwick.
"Then he looks at me and I'm like, 'I want you to show me!,' " added Hardwick.
"Then Tom Cruise goes, 'I want to feel what love is,' and I'm like, 'I know you can show me,'" Hardwick recalled.
