TOM'S MISSION IMPOSSIBLE: Shakira begs Tom Cruise to stop flirting with her as there is 'no attraction'

MIAMI, FLORIDA: Shakira is apparently sick of Tom Cruise’s ‘desperate’ overtures as she is ‘begging him to leave her alone’ amid their romance rumors in the media. The Colombian singer, 46, and the action hero, 60, were speculated to be the new hot couple in showbiz after being spotted together at the 2023 Miami Formula One Grand Prix on May 7.

While there is no confirmation from either side, sources have claimed that the ‘Mission Impossible’ star was "extremely interested in pursuing" Shakira, and was "desperate" for a date with her even though she was “not interested” in dating him at the time. Now, it has also been alleged that Cruise was "giddy" when he first met the ‘Hips Don’t Lie’ hitmaker, who last year announced her split from ex-husband Gerard Piqué. "He came away convinced they had a real connection they needed to build on," the source said, adding that he spoke to his pals about his feelings.

Shakira has 'no interest' in dating Tom Cruise, finds romance rumors hilarious

Shakira may have escaped Tom Cruise's 'toxic trap' as his previous relationships have been disastrous

'She doesn't want to embarrass or upset him'

However, while Cruise seems eager to pursue a romantic relationship, Shakira doesn’t feel the same. As per the Mirror, a source told Heat Magazine that the singer has been begging him to stop flirting with her as she is "focused on her family" rather than dating anyone. Aside from that, the insider stated that Cruise acted "giddy" when he first met Shakira at the Grand Prix, similar to "how he acted" after he first got together with his now ex-wife Katie Holmes.

According to the source, Shakira was merely being "friendly" and posing for pictures with Cruise before he started describing her as his "dream woman". This situation is claimed to have been "too much" for Shakira, who is tired of dealing with questions over whether she was dating Tom. "She doesn't want to embarrass or upset him, but there's no attraction or romance on her part - she was just being friendly. She's flattered but not interested,” the tipster continued. It has been said that this "message" was "politely" sent to Cruise, who the source claimed isn't giving up on finding love despite Shakira’s refusal.

'It’s hilarious because it’s just not true'

The insider further noted that finding the “right person” has become a struggle for the ‘Top Gun’ star, who has "the highest standards" and won't settle for "second best" in a potential partner. It was suggested that he may want to consider changing his approach, with the source commenting to the outlet that "being full on isn't working" at least in the case of Shakira. These claims came after reports claimed that the singer found the dating rumors "hilarious" and that she has no plans to take things further despite having a "fun" time with Cruise when they met at the F1 event.

“Shakira had a great time hanging out with Tom at F1 but she has no interest in dating him,” the insider told Us Weekly. “He was nice and she enjoyed his company, but she isn’t focused on dating him or anybody else at the moment. She has a lot on her plate and is focused on her kids and career for now.” The insider also noted that Shakira’s pictures with Cruise were nothing more than platonic. “Shakira has seen the online rumors that Tom has been courting her — and how fans are chiming in with their opinions — but she thinks it’s hilarious because it’s just not true,” the source explained. “She had a fun time when they chatted, but that’s as far as things have gone.”
