Tom Cruise debuts new look at Oscars lunch as fans mock 'Donald Trump-level tan'

Tom Cruise showcased a bold new look as he appeared almost unrecognisable at the Oscars luncheon in Beverly Hills – where fans mocked his "Trump tan".

The Hollywood star, 60, stepped out for his first red carpet appearance in eight months, but he looked noticeably different from the last time he was snapped.

Posing for pictures with his fellow Oscars nominees, Top Gun star Tom was all-smiles as he seemed to enjoy the annual event at The Beverly Hilton Hotel.

He not only appeared to have a visibly darker skin tone, but the actor quite literally let his hair down as he boasted a longer hairstyle than most fans are used to.

All 182 Oscar nominees came together for this afternoon's get-together as it gave the star-studded list of names a chance to network and pose for photographs.

During the event, Tom was asked to partake in a group selfie, for which he insisted on moving over to a spot with better lighting, according to the New York Times.

Fans took to Twitter this afternoon to comment on Tom's appearance, with one saying: "Tom Cruise Spray Tan Dot Tumblr Dot Com."
