Jonathan Lipnicki Gets Slammed by ‘Family Guy’ (Video)

Since playing the cute little kid in ‘Jerry Maguire‘ fourteen years ago, Jonathan Lipnicki has settled into a quiet life. But on Sunday, out of nowhere, ‘Family Guy‘ decided it was time to rip him up.

In a short scene where Peter is trying to help fix his father-in-law Carter’s marriage, he suggests he should make friends with an adorable little kid and asks Lipnicki to come over. But when Lipnicki shows up, Peter is horrified by what he sees. Instead of a cute 6-year-old with glasses, it’s a, well … Just Watch the Video:

To his credit, Tom Cruise’s former little buddy is already laughing it off on Twitter.

“Hey guys thanks for the love, but I don’t feel bad about what they said on Family Guy. It was all in good fun, I’ve worked on that show b4,” Lipnicki, now 19, tweeted on Monday morning.

As he alluded to in his tweet, Lipnicki isn’t new to ‘Family Guy,’ in which he played a small role in 2005. Ever since then, his resume has been a bit light on Hollywood roles, but he appeared on single episodes for ‘Monk’ and ‘Glenn Martin DDS’ in 2009.

According to his website, Lipnicki has been living a “normal life” in North Hollywood, where he takes acting classes at Playhouse West while also training in competitive Brazilian Jiu Jitsu.

Still Hot Or Not: Tom Cruise

Roberta @ Gone Hollywood

Yes, I’m going there. This is the man that Katie Holmes said that she’d dreamed of marrying when she was younger. Now that she’s got her wish, she’s probably trying to run away kicking and screaming.

Tom Cruise was hot back in his “Days Of Thunder” and “Risky Business” days. So much that I’m sure he inspired tons of guys (and some girls) to imitate his dancing without pants scene from “Risky Business“.

We sympathized with him in “Jerry Maguire” and loved to think he’d “complete me”.

Now, it’s an entirely different story. He’d “complete” something, alright….an application to admit himself into the psych ward for evaluation.

He’s still on the promotion circuit for his Nazi movie, “Valkyrie” and I think that since he’s gotten older, Xenu is clearly not impressed and is not letting him age gracefully.

What do you think?
