New York, Feb 24 : American actor Tom Cruise was seen having an awkward moment while talking to his ex, Spanish actress Penelope Cruz, at Creative Artists Agency head Bryan Lourd''s house party on February 20.

According to reports, Cruise was talking with MGM head Mary Parent and producer John Goldwyn in Lourd''s living room when Cruz approached him.

"Penelope tapped him on the shoulder and timidly asked, `Tom?'" the New York Post quoted a source as saying.

"Tom turned around, got visibly flustered and awkwardly said, `Oh, hey. Hi,' and gave her a small, distant hug before turning back around to his friends. It was weird," the source added.

The two of them dated for three years before their relationship came to an end in January 2004. (ANI)
