Tom Cruise has really irked plenty of people on the streets of London recently and the news has made headlines for obvious reasons.

The A-list star was blasted by irritated and furious cab drivers who felt the actor was taking advantage of his great fame and fortune to try and act like he could do anything and everything. And if that meant holding up traffic on busy streets for his own reasons, then so be it.

The leading actor is currently in the busy city for some work-related commitments and after being spotted out and about, people rushed on over toward the star and begged and pleaded for a selfie.

Overwhelmed by all the love and praise coming in his direction, the star opted to give in and attend to their results of hugs and selfies. But what the leading Mission Impossible star failed to realize was the aftermath of his actions.

The star who appeared dapper in the color back ended up holding back plenty of traffic and that did not leave drivers of taxis impressed.

As it is, London is infamous for ridiculous traffic scenes, and seeing and hearing stuff like this just makes matters worse.

This was right before the A-list star stepped inside his vehicle and headed off. But he just could not say no and for that reason, his security ended up condoning off the area for the selfie session that perhaps lasted longer than what many had anticipated.

Taxi drivers started to yell from a distance while honking their horns and begging the star to move and give them a way to bypass the media frenzy that suddenly appeared in no time after many learned about the celeb’s whereabouts.

But after realizing that the matter was getting out of hand, Cruise decided to take a step back and leave immediately before the crowd behind him mustered in strength, probably giving rise to a not-so-friendly encounter with upset cab drivers who questioned if the star owned the streets.
