Tom Cruise Using Axl Rose Vocal Coach

04/13/2011
. (hennemusic) Show business can make for unusual bedfellows, sometimes. The Wrap reports Tom Cruise is working with Axl Rose's vocal coach as he prepares for his role in an upcoming film adaptation of the Broadway musical "Rock Of Ages."

The movie is a love story told through the music of Pat Benatar, Bon Jovi, Journey, Poison, Twisted Sister and other artists from the 1980s. Cruise will play the role of Stacee Jaxx, the biggest rock star in the world; in the film, he'll sing the Bon Jovi anthem "Wanted Dead or Alive."

"He's been studying with - seriously - Axl Rose's voice teacher like five hours a day," director Adam Shankman told The Wrap. "The prognosis is more than excellent." more on this story
