Dream Eco-couples: Al Gore and Tom Cruise





While being green isn't easy, in the world of politics and Hollywood, being green and gay and vice president or star of "Mission Impossible Part 9,530" is also a pain in the rear.

But in this latest round of imaginary Barbie Doll match making, we've chosen Al and Tom, together forever.

Can't you see it? Al would take Tom under his wing, teach him a little something about the environment. He'd tour Tom through a rain forest and show him charts of carbon emissions.

In return Tom would smile at Al in that way cute way Tom does. He'd jump on Oprah's couch again to proclaim his love, release Katie Holmes from her dungeon and finally donate all of his earnings from his latest "Mission Impossible" movie to every American who agrees to turn off air conditioning.

Their House:

You know these two, they can't have just one. A ranch down south, an apartment in Zurich and a mansion in L.A. Each home uses solar power for electricity. Al has a skylight installed in their laundry rooms so the maids can hang the clothes to dry in the sun even during winter.

Tom mutters about the skylights. And he gets a bit miffed when you bring up the jets. Al got Tom to agree that Tom only needed two jets. But Tom is thrilled with his all organic cotton and cotton-wool king-sized bed. The leopard print sheets are also organic cotton.



Their cars:

The nice thing about Tom and Al is that they like to drive together. You see them in the carpool lane all the time. That's where most of the Paparazzi snags photos.

Al has taken a shine to the Fiat Panda Aria. It's a minicar with amazing efficiency.

Tom, after Al prodded, is trying out the electric Tesla Roadster.

Their kids:

Both Al and Tom already have a child. So, instead of having another child or adopting, Al and Tom decided to donate a million dollars in cloth diapers to the poor of Los Angeles.
