In the jungle, the mighty jungle: Tom Cruise gets his face painted as a wild animal as he celebrates his 49th birthday with family and friends in Miami


Tom Cruise took a walk on the wild side as he celebrated his 49th birthday in Miami this weekend.

The Hollywood superstar sat back and let a talented make-up artist paint his face to resemble that of a tiger as he spent time marking the anniversary with his family.

Daughter Suri couldn't be left out and got in on the act by having her face painted in a similar manner to her father.

With his face painted Cruise resembled the Lion from the Wizard Of Oz movie, which starred Julie Andrews as Dorothy.

His wife Katie Holmes appeared absent from the face painting session, perhaps choosing to soak up the Miami sun elsewhere.

Over the weekend she showed off her svelte bikini body during a pool party to celebrate husband Tom Cruise's 49th birthday.

But the following day, she was all wrapped up in a trench coat as she left her Miami hotel.

The 32-year-old actress looked much more conservative in black leggings, a grey trench coat and a floral scarf, as she strolled to the vehicle with her five-year-old daughter Suri.

Tom Cruise was feted by 40 of his close friends and family members in a surprise party organised by Katie at SoHo Beach House in Miami, People.com has reported.

Among the attendees were Cruise's three children – Isabella, 18, and Connor, 16, from his marriage to Nicole Kidman, and 5-year-old Suri, his daughter with Holmes.

The birthday shindig took place both inside the SoHo Beach House and on its roof, where guests dined on Italian dishes as well as chocolate cake, according to the gossip site.

Katie said goodbye to friends before her departure, while husband Tom emerged wearing a hat and sunglasses, at one point bending into the back seat of the car to kiss goodbye to his wife.

The actor stayed behind to continue filming new movie Rock of Ages in which he stars alongside Russell Brand and Alec Baldwin as a long-haired, tattooed rocker Jaxx.
