Some users argued it was indeed 59-year-old Cruise at the game, while others linked the look to Canadian Stand-up Norm Macdonald, the ex-SNL star who died in September. A few pondered how the actor’s face had dramatically changed, saying that he either gained weight or had his face filled with fillers. The ‘Top Gun’ actor, when in his prime, has had one of the sharpest Jawlines in the industry. 

Some questioned whether the Mission Impossible star had undergone cosmetic surgery or naturally gained weight.

But now, he looked puffier than usual. Videos of the Risky Business star, where he was also seen waving to fans during the game, have since circulated, sparking a few not-so-nice comments. “What has Tom Cruise done to his face?” One person wrote.  Someone weighed in to defend the actor, saying: “Tom Cruise putting some weight on in his face because he’s prob not filming a movie requiring him to be in not-human shape and getting memed all over for it feels awfully yucky to me.”

Another added: At first, I felt a little bad that everyone was making fun of Tom Cruise's face because it honestly looks like some side effect to me. But then I remembered he’d spent decades criticizing people for taking meds. Drag that pillow face.” This particular tweet referenced Cruise’s comments Brooke Shields. He had suggested that the Church is against psychiatric drugs, having got into a public spat with Shields in 2005.

Others, however, defended the “Risky Business” alum, saying that he is just aging naturally.

Both Shields and Cruise tussle had been hinged on her use of antidepressants to postpartum depression. Shields fired back for calling her actions irresponsible, saying he should stick to saving the world from aliens and let women experiencing postpartum depression decide what treatment options are best for them. But then the actress disclosed in 2006 that Cruise came over to her house and apologized.
