Tom Cruise wasn't just in Miami for the cracked crab and soulful croonings of Marc Anthony. He was trying to recruit Jennifer Lopez to costar in a project for his new studio, United Artists. A source tells Star magazine in the new issue (due out Wednesday): "He said the two women have a strong connection and radiate on screen."
Cruise reportedly met with his studio's backer, Washington Redskins owner Daniel Snyder, for Joe's Stone Crab and grouper ceviche at Casa Casuarina, the former Versace mansion. A Radar spy says Cruise and Lopez then retired to a private room and "gabbed for hours." We're presuming she got a stress test out of it.
