Tom Cruise Speaks About Jett Travolta's Death On the View

A shaken Tom Cruise struggled to describe his feelings on the death of Jett Travolta during an appearance that airs Friday on The View.

"It's horrific," said Cruise, a close friend of John Travolta and Kelly Preston (Tom and Kelly starred together in Jerry Maguire) "Both of them doting parents, just wonderful people...it's just..."I remember Jett when he was born. I saw him when he was a few months old and John just adored him," he continued. "It's something I don't have the words..."

With Cruise barely holding it together, Barbara Walters changed the subject, asking if Cruise had a response to critics who claim Scientology prevents parents from giving medication to their ailing children and have suggested the religion's rules played a part in the 16-year-old's death.

"Not true. It's actually the opposite," Cruise said, explaining that adherents are encouraged to go in for physicals and see doctors when ailing.

The interview was taped earlier this week and scheduled to air today, but was preempted by a press conference by President-elect Barack Obama.
