Tom Cruise puts Katie Holmes in her place

The buzz is that Tom Cruise wants Katie Holmes to focus on being a wife and a mother — not on her career. He also reportedly wants her to avoid the spotlight for a while. “I’ve got Katie tucked away, so no one will get to us until my child is born — and until I want them to,” Cruise recently told a friend according to Life & Style Weekly. According to the mag, the friend claims Cruise doesn’t want a repeat of his marriage to Nicole Kidman.

“I said Katie's life from now on was going to be about being a mother,” Cruise allegedly said. “I’m not giving her the chance to turn into another Nicole.”

Cruise’s rep denies the story. Katie's rep, who Tom jovially calls "The Mighty Walrus of Lies," tried to make a statement, but was promptly chained in the basement and beaten by a pack of horny baboons. Yet I like the way Tom says "until my child is born." Not "our" child. If I were Katie I'd be a little worried about my future. Probably keep my ears open for words like "death" or "sacrifice" or "fed to the pigs." I'm not calling Tom Cruise a murderer, I'm calling Katie Holmes an idiot. If she was gonna get murdered, she'd be the last to know ("Hey, Tom, I saw this note here written in blood...yeah, it says you're gonna murder me with, like, an axe, and I was just wondering - hey! there's the axe - be careful you almost hit me with - hey! watch it, you gotta be more caref - hey! ow! Well ok Mr. Grumpy, I'll just come back when - ow!")

1. I predict Katie gets sick and tired of Tom

about 6 months after the baby is born.
I'm sick of him already. What a nut case!

[JI7]

23. i think she is getting paid for all of this

[KFC]

2. Tom is the man.

Anybody thay can fly and kill you with a stare deserves respect. And that wench Katie better know it.

3. Tom. Yuck.

I've never liked that guy. Never. And I don't think he's very attractive. So, nyaaaah, Tom.

4. Control freak!

I think Katie can turn into whatever she wants. Eeew, he just gives me the heebee jeebee's!

[pinniped]

5. She can't leave if she signed that 1 billion year contract.

Taliban Tom.

[Neshanic]

6. Ewwww, Ewwwww EWWWWW! Gawd what a freak!

[terrya]

7. "Her career"...did anyone see her in "Batman Begins"?

After that sad excuse for "acting", she might as well just hang out in the kitchen.

9. After his performance in War of the Worlds

perhaps they should both just stay in the kitchen, and discuss which of them is the worst?

11. I didn't see that cinematic effort.

But you're right. Really...has he ever had a decent performance in the past 10 years?

[mikeytherat]

12. He was so bad in it, the aliens ate him and SPAT HIM BACK!

8. Someone air drop that control freak some Prozac.

Like, NOW.

Also some pamphlets about how yer woman ain't yer propertai written in sometime in the past decade might be helpful too.

[mikeytherat]

10. Prozac? He needs to be immersed in a vat of Thorazine

"I'm feeling less...intense!"

[jane_pippin]

13. Even better!

Just so long as he goes away and releases that poor little pregnant girl from his clutches.

[mikeytherat]

14. Well, I never said how long he should be held under...

draw your own conclusion.

16. Maybe I should send him the prayer rug.

I still have it.

[sasquatch]

15. She's got a head so clean now you could eat steak out of it

That is all.

[NMMNG]

17. WTF??

He sounds like some right-wing fundie control freak. Why the heck is she putting up with that crap? This is the 21st century for crying out loud. :eyes:

[SoCalDem]

18. He just bought an "incubator" named Katie

She will give birth to a very valuable child. She will eventually tire of being the obsession of an idiot.. Her child support payment should be quit good, and the child will probably be ok looking.

[springhill]

19. And you know this story to be accurate..............

because they never lie and or make things up?

[jobycom]

20. Same reasons people believe the news about how nice Bush is

They just really, really want it to be true.

Sorry, but I don't think it's coincidence that Cruise is a Democrat and that the media is creating all these goofy (and entirely unbelievable) fantasies about him.

[springhill]

21. The venom directed towards him.......

especially on this board are more suited for a serial killer. From all accounts he is a very generous and kind person, and I think people just can't stand it that he's successful, good-looking and nice. Don't agree with everything he's said recently? Well neither do I, but he doesn't deserive the vitrol he receives here.

[realisticphish]

22. he also

said that there is no such thing as mental illness, which is, IMHO, a henious thing to say. To me, that's like saying "Cancer isn't real, it's all in your head"

[Orangepeel]

24. George Clooney is successful, good-looking and nice.

and I think most people here like him. So, it's not just that about Tom Cruise.

Personally, I think Cruise deserves to be laughed at and criticized. I agree with you that he doesn't deserve the vitriol he gets here, but, hey -- anonymous boards tend to be extreme. Have you seen the hate directed at figure skaters today? It's just people venting.

[springhill]

25. Why does he deserive to be laughed at exactly?

I have to say, for being such a "Terrible" actor he has a lot of people that go to see his movies.

[ScreamingMeemie]

27. For the story I KNOW to be true...his snide remarks and know it all

attitude when it comes to the treatment of postpartum depression. I'm sorry, but he should have kept his ever loving mouth shut because he is not a doctor. Sorry...he deserves my ridicule for ridiculing me...Two wrongs don't make a right...but damn, as a past sufferer of PPD...it feels good.

[Misunderestimator]

26. LOL! Generous and kind.... and nuts.
