Los Angeles, Jun 22 (IANS): Actress Heather Locklear says actor Tom Cruise once embarrassed her when he started dancing to the tunes of a number from his film "Risky Business" in a nightclub.

"We had auditioned for something together and he didn't have any friends, I mean, not that he doesn't have friends. Out here he didn't have friends. We went out and we went dancing," contactmusic.com quoted Locklear as saying.

She added: "You know in 'Risky Business' where he does that dance in his underwear and does the splits? We were dancing at a club and he went into that. He starting doing the splits. You just kind of stand there and don't know what to do. Do you dance around him? So, I was like, 'I'll just sit down and you can.'"

While Locklear married and divorced American musicians Tommy Lee and Richie Sambora, Cruise has three broken marriages behind him.

The actor divorced actress Mimi Rogers in 1990, split from second wife Nicole Kidman in 2011 and his six-year-marriage to Katie Holmes ended last year.
