Is Tony Romo the Next Tom Cruise?

Last month, Tom Cruise assisted a fallen photographer in NYC, adding to his long list of "Touched by a Superstar Angel" moments.

Cruise better hold on to his halo, though, because there’s a new celeb do-gooder making the world a better place—Dallas Cowboys quarterback and Jessica Simpson's main squeeze Tony Romo.

Here's his angel tally: Recently, Simpson credited her man of over a year with saving her. From what? No one is quite sure. 

And in September, after throttling the Cleveland Browns in a season opener and catching a late-night flight home, he stopped and helped a stranded couple by changing their flat tire. This with a freshly stitched chin!

And just this week, he treated a homeless guy to a movie and even let the man, who admitted he hadn't showered for several days, sit with him and a friend.

Meet Britney, the Original American Idol

Mon., Mar. 24, 2008 4:39 PM PDT by

Britney Spears, Kristy Lee Cook E! Networks

Long before Simon Cowell had his grips on American Idol contestant Kristy Lee Cook, another pop diva played mentor to the Carrie Underwood wannabe.

Back in 2000, Britney Spears signed 17-year-old Kristy as the first artist in her newly formed production company.

"Britney would tell her how beautiful and talented she was," says Marty Rendleman, Kristy’s manager at the time. "She told her that she would do whatever she needed to promote her and help launch her career."

The pop diva even promised to be in Kristy’s first video once her album dropped. But in 2003, Kristy asked to be released from her contract to pursue independent music projects.

It may have seemed like a questionable move at the time, but we're starting to think Simon has underestimated this season-seven finalist because one of these girls has a tour coming up this summer...and it's not Britney.
