The TomKat Publicity Tour Rages On

Since Tom Cruise's very public firing by Viacom head Sumner Redstone (which owns Paramount Pictures), he and Katie Holmes have put the PR machine into overdrive. TomKat have made getting back in the media's good graces and shedding their bizarre personas their mission impossible.

First, Tom makes a house call to Brooke Shields and apologizes for attacking her in the press last year for her use of antidepressants. Although Cruise still feels the same about the evils of prescription pills, his "heartfelt apology" is the first step in healing his career.

Next, Tom's paramour, Katie, er, Kate Holmes, tries to prove all is well in Cruise-dom by shopping and dining at trendy LA restaurant The Ivy on Tuesday with Katie's and Tom's mothers in tow. Coincidence? Not on your life! Everyone in the business knows going to The Ivy is the Hollywood equivalent of a Sears portrait studio.

Finally, the ever-elusive Suri Cruise surfaces.

Tuesday night, the "CBS Evening News" debuted the first image of the happy family on the cover of the new issue of Vanity Fair, which put to rest months of questions, rumors and conspiracy theories regarding the TomKitten's whereabouts.

While no one can predict what Tom's next highly calculated move will be, at this rate it won't be long before Matt Lauer receives a Cruise call.

16. What is wrong with you people? I think that the baby is beautiful! I am so sick of people talking crap about Tom and Kate. You finally get pictures of their daughter and then talk smack about her looking Asian. I think it's great that they had a baby and why is everyone worried about them getting married? IT"S 2006---get with the times--maybe they are content with their situation, and who needs to be "legally married" to be happy?

Also, stop bugging them about their religion. If that is what makes them happy then leave them alone. They are not hurting anybody and as long as they provide a loving home for their family that is all that matters! I wish Tom, Kate and Suri the BEST OF LUCK--and I hope all the media, public, and crazy freaks out there will give you some privacy to enjoy your new edition :) Take care

18. I think Tom and Katie little bundle of joy is adorable. She does have almond shaped eyes, but so does Katie. Give her a chance to develope more, I m sure little Suri will look just like Mommy.

19. Oooooh! Good one Rachel!

20. The reason she looks like Katie is because she is Not Tom's blood child.
Quite awhile back, Mimi Rogers (Tom's first wife) said that Tom is "Sterile" and can't have kids!
Why Katie is lying for him I have no idea, except she is brainwashed into it.
I feel sorry for that beautiful baby. And I hope to God that she tells her father that she does not want to be in their Scientology Cult... I hope she can have her own mind. Unlike her mom.

21. Gee whiz...................

Just all of a sudden Mr Short Divorce decides he is going to make good on all these things he has screwed up in the past year or so.
Screw, the word for what was done to Katie. Quote from "The Soup" from Katie "Sure" :)

Kiss Brooke's butt & go over to her house?

Hey Mr Short Divorce, we DO NOT buy this, just like the public does NOT buy tickets to your films anymore or any of the other stupid things you do.

22. Don't remember.....Why haven't they gotten married yet? Was it lack of money or niether could get enough time off work?

23. I usually don't feel sorry for the uber rich when they complain about the papparratzi, but this was CRAZY.

24. Tom Cruise ...........how easily the Ameican public forgets. It was common knowledge in Hollywood that he married Nicole Kidman in a 10 year deal as part of his contract with the studio at that time: she got to make several pictures and he got to keep his image as a happliy married hetrosexual man-----although they never had any bio children, they adpoted ones (he also never had children with his first wife, Mimmi Rogers, hmmmm?); then low and behold, on the tenth marking of their aniversary he suddenly divorces Nicole. Also, lets not forget all the tabloid brew-ha-ha in the mid-90's about his sexuality, in which he loudly denied, sued a newspaper publication, and got a national appology, then basically moved to London to get away from all the fallout. My point?.......this man has been haunted by his double image for years. Anybody whos worked on any one of his pictures knows that he leads a double life---the only difference now, is that time and the instant media are catching up with him. It's no wonder why he's been acting like a crazy person---he's being forced out of that celuloid closet which he has resided in for more than 20 years now. Personally, as much as an a...hole he's been recently, you've got to pity the position he's been placed in by the people who put him there to begin with. And I agree, I hope Katie Holmes really understands the deal she has made with the devil (so-to-speak). It's all damage control from this point forward. Ah, but then again, how easily America forgets!

25. Hey, Tiffany (#16), that must mean Tom slept with (intact) Keanu to produce baby Suri, right? ;-)

26. What is on that kid's head? Looks very fake and makes me wonder what's under it.

27. I had heard, also, that Tom was sterile and the fact that he couldn't reproduce bore that fact out. However, at an earlier site someone mentioned that Nicole HAD been pregnant and miscarried. Think she was cheating on him?

28. Tom is not STERILE. That kid, Conner looks exactly like him too. I don't believe that little boy is adopted at all. Artificial insemination? Maybe. Dig up some conner pics and put them by tom.

29. Kind of silly for Katie to be whining about the "heartbreaking" gossip about herself, Tom and Suri. Tom and Katie have brought it on themselves. It's hypocritcal for them to behave irrationally, then blame the press and the public for drawing conclusions.

30. I want to add for the posters who claim that Tom "isn't hurting anyone," I disagree. He has hurt people with his anti-psychiatry rantings and pushing Scientology. I heard that a psychiatrist friend of Steven Spielberg had his office picketed by Scientologists after SS mentioned to Tom Cruise that he thought the doctor in was very reputable and was helping patients. I have also heard that some impressionable individuals have discontinued their psych meds because Dr. Tom is such a know-it-all. That high-school dropout needs to shut his pie-holde.
