NEW YORK, Dec. 14 (UPI) -- Tom Cruise apparently won't win any prizes for using last week's Nobel Peace Prize Concert in Oslo as a platform to plug Scientology.

The "Collateral" star and Oprah Winfrey co-hosted Saturday's event, which featured such performers as Cyndi Lauper, Patti Labelle and Diana Krall, MSNBC reported Tuesday.

"One of the things that we believe in (as Scientologists) is peace, freedom," Cruise said in promoting the concert, which will be broadcast in the United States Dec. 23. "I'm just proud to be here, and very proud to be a Scientologist here and to be part of this."
