Celebs... they're just like the rest of us. Sometimes, celebrity friends can pick up hobbies from one another, and that's exactly what happened in the case of Tom Cruise and Will Smith. In an interview with the Mirror in 2008, Smith talked about a hobby he learned from Cruise — fencing. Yes, you read that right. Another fun tidbit of information? David Beckham also joined in on the fun.

In the interview, Smith explained that Cruise has a room in his home for fencing, because why wouldn't he? "We don't get enough time to hang out, just us three guys, so this is his way of getting together and bonding. David and I go to his home and just do fencing. It's a lot of fun," Smith shared. "We wanted an activity that was strenuous, but we're getting older — we have to think about slowing down." The actor also joked that the trio now needs to "watch" their "joints."

And if you thought that the duo's fun activities stopped at fencing, then you're sorely mistaken. According to Leah Remini (via Metro), the "Top Gun" actor also had another game that he liked to play with guests, including Will Smith and his wife, Jada Pinkett Smith. Once again, it isn't at all what you would expect. According to Remini, Cruise would invite friends over to his house to play hide and seek. We're guessing, in Cruise's giant abode, there are probably plenty of good hiding spots.
