They are popular  because of their beauty, their acting skill, or some of them popular because their scandal. Brad Pitt and tom Cruise are two icon of the Hollywood man artist. They are  two actor that always compare by their fans. They are rivals to show who is the best. But there is some similarities between them .
Bradd Pitt a man who born on 18 December 1963 is a popular American actor.  He was a talented actor that can act as many kind of characters. Tom Cruise is also an American actor that born in Syracuse, New York on  3 July 1962 who have a good acting skill.
