Tom Cruise has praised the paparazzi for taking beautiful shots of his photogenic two-year-old tot Suri.
The Top Gun star - who also has two adopted children with ex-wife Nicole Kidman - seems happy for his daughter with Katie Holmes to bask in her famous parents' spotlight.
Tom tells Australian Grazia, "I have to say some of those paparazzi shots of my daughter are incredible.
"As a parent you protect your children but Suri is a very open and warm child and she will just wave to people on the street. She is such happy, fun girl."
He adds, "It is certainly different these days with the media, but people have been very good to us and do give us space so I am not going to be difficult."
