Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman's son Connor may be just a teenager, but he is already making his name for himself in the music industry.

The 17-year-old is an aspiring DJ who goes by the name DJ C-Squared.

He took to the decks to spin tunes at an American Eagle-sponsored event in New York City's Times Square.

Showing off a new, edgier mohawk haircut, Cruise flashed a cheeky smile and the peace sign at fans as he set up for the gig.

He was joined by Pretty Little Liars actress Shay Mitchell. She greeted fans, posed for photos and signed autographs.

So while Connor Cruise's dad deals with his divorce from Katie Holmes, this Cruise is in control as he looks to put himself firmly on the DJ map.
