Tom Makes More Weird Moves

Well Katie may have been able to kick the whole Cruise clan to the curb of her house but she definitely can’t stop them from getting heavily involved in her husband, Tom’s, career. Tom Cruise has once again turned to his sister, fellow Scientologist, to help manage his career. This isn’t the first time that Tommy Boy has wanted to keep his affairs within the family. It was right around the time that he and Katie started dating that she also managed his career and, as TMZ reports, it was not a good time in Tom’s career,

“Couches of the world, you’ve been forewarned.

Tom Cruise has once again enlisted sister Lee Anne Devette to help manage his career and steer the Cruise ship, reports OK!. This is not a positive development for Cruise; the last time she was involved, Tom started jumping up on couches and calling Matt Lauer glib.

“He needed someone to step in and take over. And Lee Anne stepped up to the plate,” says a source.”

Let’s not forget how he verbally attacked Brooke Shields for - GASP! - taking care of herself and her child! Anyways, it’s stuff like this that really has me feeling sorry for Katie Holmes. I think of how overwhelming her life must be, with a weirdo husband and overbearing in-laws. I’m glad that she take this gig on Broadway - it seems to have been really good for her to do something that she loves and step outside of the roles she’s been playing as Suri’s mom and Tom’s wife. She has also received rave reviews from audience members and fellow costars such as John Lithgow. Lycos caught a snippet of an interview with him where he couldn’t stop singing Katie’s praises,

“He adds, “Katie is lovely in the play, and she’s been such a sweetheart to work with. She has worked so hard - this is a tough, tough play.

“Katie is acting with thoroughbreds and she’s doing a wonderful job! She’s had to really push herself.”

John also praised Tom Cruise’s efforts in supporting his wife and making sure Suri got a taste of the excitement as well: “They’ve been around…a lot!”

Gosh darn it! If she would only leave that crazy husband of hers, I think I would really start to like Katie Holmes! Well I guess that’s a lot to put little Suri through just for my peace of mind. Alas, I suppose I’ll have to make peace with the fact that she really does love Tom.

Celebrities Celebrate Father’s Day

Because Father’s Day was this past weekend, it seemed only appropriate to check in our favorite celebrities to see how they celebrated the dads in their lives as we celebrated the ones in ours. Here’s what they were up to!

One of Hollywood’s newest hot and heavy couple, Kate Hudson and Lance Armstrong spent the day with their kids - all four of them. Lance brought all his three kids: Luke, Isabella, and Grace and Kate brought along little Ryder. Yes, one big happy family indeed.

Larry King also dodged the paparazzi as he took his two sons, Cannon Edward and Chance Armstrong to cheer for the L.A. Lakers as they competed at the Staples Center against the Boston Celtics in the NBA Championship. Just a nice day out with the boys.

Brooke Shields also stopped for a moment with her entire family to take a nice family picture as this foursome headed out on their own Father’s Day adventure.

And Adam Sandler celebrated his big day with his first child, Sadi who is two with his wife Jackie and their dog down in the beaches of Malibu. This family will be getting a new addition this October when they will welcome their second child.

And Paris Hilton shows just how much she loves her daddy by treating him to a wonderful dinner at Mr. Chow in L.A. Her mom, Kathy and her brother, Conrad were also there while her sister Nicky did not come with the family.

TomKat’s Humble Home Now Built

Well Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes have completed construction on their new home in Beverly Hills and let me tell you, it’s a far cry from what we saw on Oprah when she and Tom were huddled in a cozy cabin in Teluride, Colorado. The estate, which is worth a whopping 35 million dollars, was the venue of the couple’s housewarming party on Saturday night. From Celebrity Baby Scoop,

“Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes hosted an A-list housewarming party on Saturday night at their new Beverly Hills mansion. Some of the stars on the guest list included Oprah Winfrey, Jennifer Lopez, Brooke Shields, Victoria Beckham, Eva Longoria Parker and Kyra Sedgwick.

It was also a family affair with Holmes’ parents from Ohio and all of the Cruise children: Isabella, 15, Connor, 13, and Suri, 2. Cruise and Holmes purchased the 1.3-acre $35 million estate last summer and have spent the last year on renovations.

Guests began arriving around 9 p.m. and were driven up the long driveway to a large fountain by a valet service. The party was both indoors and outdoors and staffed over 50 people, including world-renouned chef, Wolfgang Puck who catered the event. On the back lawn, cocktails and appetizers were served to guests as they lounged on white couches under heat lamps, the trees were adorned with white lights and an orchestra played music. The festivities ended around 1 a.m.”

I find it particularly interesting that Brooke Shields was there even though there has been such tension between her and Cruise in the past. It also seems as though Tom and Katie are back to doing what they do best - showing off how great they are and how much money they have. I know they earned it and blah, blah, blah but flaunting it seems unecessary. Who needs a 35 billion dollar home?
