The Academy announced today that Tom Cruise will present at the Oscars, his first in five years. And in front of an audience that will include George Clooney and Brad Pitt who have, over the last decade or so, arguably exceeded him in reputation and prestige. Sanity too? The GMD’s last trip to the Kodak was in 2007. Full Story

Maybe he’ll be invited to present at the SAGs or the Oscars. So far though, his name has not appeared in relation to the Globes. And he certainly won’t hear his name called on January 24th when the Academy announces its nominees. So we’ll get little of Tom Cruise and, therefore, the presentation of Katie Holmes, on the carpets this season. Full Story

Katie Holmes may be younger than Nicole Kidman, and I was about to write “infinitely more expressive” seeing as Katie hasn’t turned her face into a tundra, but then I realised, even though Katie hasn’t frozen her forehead, there is, like her predecessor, really not all that much variation in her expressions, for completely different reasons. Full Story

I say this every year - Katie Holmes and Brad Pitt share a birthday. One of the many reasons why western astrology, to me anyway, lacks credibility. Katie spent her birthday with Little and Littler Sci in New York in a birthday jumpsuit. On Charlize Theron, or Rihanna? Totally? The problem with how Katie wears hers is that even if she didn’t design it, it LOOKS like she did design it. Full Story

Tom Cruise is back in New York, seen here today with Katie Holmes and Little Sci, pushing through some last minute photo opportunities before Mission: Impossible Ghost Protocol (God that colon is so f-cking annoying) opens (in limited) tomorrow. See how skilled his security is? They do a great job of avoiding getting in the shot. Full Story

Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes were married 5 years ago Friday. I’ve attached my favourite of all their wedding photos and oh my God I still can’t believe what an ugly dress Armani made for her. Look at him all intense, staring into her eyes. You know, since Charlene of Serenity came along though, it kinda puts Katie’s dead eyes into perspective. Full Story

I can’t imagine why. Her husband is a really vigorous handshaker. I guess it depends who’s doing the vigorous handshaking. This story is making my life. So Noel Gallagher was on Letterman last week, same day as Katie Holmes. Noel has a blog - click here Full Story

Katie Holmes’s last movie before she met and married Tom Cruise was Thank You For Smoking. It was good. And then... Mad Money, The Romantics, The Extra Man, and most recently Don’t Be Afraid Of The Dark and The Son Of No One, both of which were not well reviewed. None of them were, actually. Next up: Jack & Jill with Adam Sandler. Full Story

Tom Cruise continues to work on One Shot in Pittsburgh so his family, including wife Katie Holmes, their daughter Little Sci Suri, and son Connor were there for Halloween weekend. Katie was charged with managing the festivities on Saturday, seen here with Connor and Suri, in costume, trick or treating in the neighbourhood. Full Story

There was a thought I was trying to find this morning when I came across these photos of Katie Holmes at the Giorgio Armani event last night in Los Angeles. Something about how great her hair looks. And her skin. So fresh and supple. Then someone sent me an email related to the Minka Kelly post from yesterday - click here Full Story

This is Tom Cruise as Jack Reacher on the set of One Shot in Pittsburgh. Not surprisingly, it’s a running scene. Meryl Streep has accents. Tom Cruise has running.All The Right Moves was on tv the other night. Have you seen it? Back then, when they made movies about high school, they used to let the teenagers have pimples. Full Story

Scarecrow is what I thought of when I saw Katie Holmes in these jeans. Gumby Scarecrow? Scarecrow Gumby? Whatever it is, it’s f-cking the worst. And here’s my answer to that one person, there’s always one, who will argue that she just wanted to be comfortable so don’t judge her for her weird ass coveralls. Full Story

When TIFF was winding last week and several of us sat around comparing notes and gossiping, as we always do after the festival, a few minutes of the conversation was devoted to a certain actress who looked spectacular in photographs, wearing what was truly an inspired dress, but who actually has a serious skin problem which you can see up close. Full Story

Katie Holmes was photographed shopping in New York today with her hair plaited like Marion Cotillard the other night at the Contagion premiere - click here Full Story
