Heather Locklear explains why Tom Cruise ‘didn’t quite cut it’ on their first and only date

One and done.

Heather Locklear explained why Tom Cruise “didn’t quite cut it” during their first and only date in the 1980s.

The “Melrose Place” alum, 62, recalled meeting the “Top Gun” star, also 62, at an audition for a film as she spoke during a panel at 90s Con in Daytona Beach, Fla., on Saturday.

The duo met at an audition.

They went out dancing at Club Lingerie.

“I was like, ‘Oh my gosh, I’m terrible. He’s even worse!’” she joked, according to People, adding that neither of them got the parts.

Since Locker was “a little bit older” than Cruise (by only a few months), she viewed him as a “little baby boy.”

The “Dynasty” alum remembered the “Rain Man” star and Sean Penn once coming to her house, where they were “nice” and said, “Yes, ma’am.”

Locklear called the actor “really cute” and “very nice.”

However, Cruise “didn’t quite cut it.”

“We went out dancing to Club Lingerie at that time,” she continued of their date, noting that Cruise did his famous move from “Risky Business” on the dance floor.

“He was really cute,” Locklear gushed. “He was very nice to me.”

However, the “Hot in Cleveland” alum poked fun at the “Jerry Maguire” star’s style, which she felt “didn’t quite cut it” compared to her “rock ‘n’ roll girl” image.

Locklear went on to marry Mötley Crüe drummer Tommy Lee and Bon Jovi guitarist Richie Sambora in 1986 and 1994, respectively.

She and Sambora, now 65, welcomed daughter Ava, 26, in 1997 and obtained joint custody following their 2007 divorce.

Locklear has since been engaged twice to former co-star Jack Wagner and high school sweetheart-turned-motocross racer Chris Heisser.

Cruise, for his part, wed Nicole Kidman and Katie Holmes.

She is still going strong with Heisser, who proposed in April 2020 during the COVID-19 pandemic.

“I’m like, ‘You’re my man for the rest of my life, whether we get married or not,’” the bride-to-be told People the following year. “[A wedding] is so not important. We’re together, and we love each other and support each other. And really that’s all that matters.”

Cruise, for his part, is twice-divorced from Nicole Kidman and Katie Holmes. He was most recently linked to Russian socialite Elsina Khayrova.
