Chills Chills Chills Saving Tom Cruise There’s our Tom on the set of Oblivion yesterday, ever the movie star even in crisis. Especially in crisis. Tom Cruise, Movie Star, must save Tom Cruise, Scientologist now. While there have been no discussions, formal or informal, just yet, the question has been asked...casually. Jack Reacher in By Lainey • Jul 11, 2012 01:21 pm
Famewhores The Popular Katie Holmes Exclusive Two months ago Katie Holmes was a dead-eyed joke. Do not pretend you don’t remember it. But it’s getting harder and harder to remember it, isn’t it? In two weeks Katie Holmes has gone from robot to independent asskicker. It’s an extraordinary image overhaul, similar By Lainey • Jul 11, 2012 11:40 am
Break Ups Tom & Katie’s quick divorce A friend of mine who is also an entertainment reporter emailed me yesterday. “Am I a dick? This is so anti-climactic.” She left him and divorced him, all of it signed, in 10 short days. I feel like that might be a record. Can we at least have a chance By Lainey • Jul 10, 2012 11:18 am
Break Ups It took Katie 10 days and now she takes taxis (There are other, several, non Tom & Katie posts scheduled for today. Most of them are half-written but I’ve had to put them on hold because these two seem so determined to take over the world. Please know those stories are on the way.) Katie Holmes announced she’d By Lainey • Jul 09, 2012 02:04 pm
Girly Throw Downs Tom wins a round I’ll never choose not to use a sports analogy if it’s available. So if the Tom Cruise/Katie Holmes divorce situation can be compared to a boxing match, and we expect it to go 12 rounds, let’s say that Katie, obviously, won the first round easily, almost By Lainey • Jul 09, 2012 12:34 pm
Girly Throw Downs She’s a Survivor Destiny’s Child’s Survivor shuffled onto my iPod last night. I haven’t heard it in a while and I haven’t paid attention to the lyrics in even longer. Am now convinced it should be Katie Holmes’s theme song. Google that right now and see for yourself. By Lainey • Jul 09, 2012 11:23 am
Break Ups These people are not Church approved They can’t be, right? Because they’re part of New Katie’s life. New Katie has cut off everyone who’s connected to Scientology. Not sure yet who accompanied her and Suri yesterday in New York but these people are certainly not approved by Xenu. And, well, I really By Lainey • Jul 06, 2012 10:59 am
Media Manipulation Jena Malone is Johanna Mason? The Hollywood Reporter reported exclusively the other day that Jena Malone will play Johanna Mason in Catching Fire. Or, rather, they reported that: “Malone has the offer and is in early negotiations for the part, according to sources.” Something about the way this was worded... It reminded me of a By Lainey • Jul 05, 2012 03:36 pm
Girly Throw Downs Katie Holmes: Skywalker, Neo, and Harry Potter Here are some old shots from July 2008. Scientology head David Miscavige tagged along with Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes to watch a race. You know, because Tom and David are manly men on motorcycles and sh-t. Miscavige of course was also the best man at their wedding. Ex-Scientologists have By Lainey • Jul 05, 2012 12:27 pm
Break Ups New Katie & Old Katie & Old Katie Before we begin today’s Tom and Katie divorce coverage, let’s start on a lighter note. My friend Caleigh sent this awesome reminder of amazingness out to a few of us yesterday and I thought you might like it too. June 2000. There is so much happening here I By Lainey • Jul 05, 2012 11:07 am
Media Manipulation Tom Cruise as Jack Reacher: Mission Impossible? The Jack Reacher trailer has been released. And what timing too. More on this in a minute... But what’s with the music? Just me or does it sound like Mission: Impossible? So Tom Cruise is supposed to be a badass. Righteous. Able to take on several thugs all by By Lainey • Jul 04, 2012 11:46 am
Break Ups Katie’s New York freedom Little Sci has been my nickname for Suri Cruise since she was born. It started out as creative licence, pure jokes. And now... Well... LittleSci is the reality Katie Holmes is evidently trying to avoid. Katie took Suri out for ice cream last night in New York as her defection By Lainey • Jul 04, 2012 10:30 am
Media Manipulation Don’t let them down Two of the Church of Scientology’s major figureheads have taken a public relations beating recently. John Travolta, as we know, has been an on and off disappointment to Xenu for a long time. The Thetan spirit however must be quite shaken over Tom Cruise’s current troubles. His wife By Lainey • Jul 03, 2012 12:43 pm
Break Ups Tom Cruise’s 50th Birthday And his now-estranged wife, Katie Holmes, dropped a divorce on his ass. You know I love a good conspiracy theory but the consensus really is the truth this time - he was not expecting it, it was not planned, there was no contract that terminated; 100% he was surprised, and, By Lainey • Jul 03, 2012 11:25 am
Break Ups Katie Holmes is a Baller This is the cover of the new PEOPLE. Not surprisingly, the magazine is going heavy on Katie leaving Tom, especially since Katie’s team gave them an advance on the announcement, confirming with them first that she’d filed for divorce. It’s just another in a series of very By Lainey • Jul 02, 2012 10:46 am
Break Ups Katie be strong... For my initial report today on the Katie Holmes/Tom Cruise split, please click here. NYC paps say Katie Holmes was still wearing her wedding ring on Wednesday. Pictures are attached. You know what’s interesting about that? They’ve always said that Tom and his inner circle check pap By Lainey • Jun 29, 2012 04:51 pm
