Stay at Holmes Mum (Katie Holmes Retires from Hollywood at Age 26)
The London Sun ^ | 11.12.05 | Victoria Newton

Posted on 11/12/2005 11:45:40 AM PST by gopwinsin04

Katie Holmes is quitting acting, to become a full time wife to Tom Cruise. The 'Batman Begins' beauty is one of Hollywoods most promising up and coming young stars.

But at age 26 she wants to ditch her blossoming film career and devote herself to bringing up the baby they are expecting next year.

A pal tells me 'Katie has decided to give up acting altogether. She's been telling friends that she and Tom have decided it is best that she stays at home and brings up their new baby.'

'Her decision is raising a lot of eyebrows in Hollywood. She is at the perfect age for so many screen roles and has completely closed the door on a promising career.'

Kate made her name with her brilliant role in the hit teenage series 'Dawson's Creek.' And made an impressive transition to the big screen in the recent summer blockbuster 'Batman Begins.'

Most girls would give their eye teeth to be the next Julia Roberts. But it looks like the opportunity will fall to another Hollywood starlet.

It also strikes me that Tom, a devoted follower of Scientology, is living in a time warp. If relationships are all about give and take, he hasn't given up much for her so far.

Damn, I wonder if Scientology can land me a hot multimillionare wife who is willing to stay home and take care of the kids.

No but I am certain the Scientologists could teach you how to brainwash a millionaire starlet into marrying you and giving up her career.

Because that is what they have done here. Holmes didn't choose this. Free will is absent in Scientology. You do as they say.

Supposedly Katie's is demanding a multi-million dollar lump sum payment if the impending marriage does not last five years.

There's nothing to that. Anyone can start a rumor.

This won't last 2 years.

Gee, why haven't we been hearing from Tom lately? Maybe it has something to do with Hollywood brass telling him to shut his cake-hole and take a long vacation if he wants so much as a character bit-part ever again.

Let's just hope she never falls down, or is pushed down and gets into a "vegetative" state. Scientologist have a history with these kind of people.

Katie Holmes is quitting acting, to become a full time wife to Tom Cruise. . . .

Will someone who pays more attention to these sorts of things please tell me if there has been a marriage. There has been a much touted "engagement" ... and now, apparently, a pregnancy by some means ... but when was there a marriage? In the absence of a marriage, can we amend that to read: "a full time [fill in the blank] of Tom Cruise ... ?

I’ll bet that the baby will not look like Tom Cruise. Any takers? Haven't you noticed that Katie Holmes bears a vague resemblance to Cruise? A Freeper with a deliciously warped sense of humor has posted a picture of the happy couple, where Tom's face is superimposed on Katie's. It took me a few seconds to even notice the difference, LOL!

Incorrect.

She gets s multi-million dollar payout IF the marriage lasts X# of years. (The guess is 10)

If you look at Nicole and Tom - that marraige lasted exactly 10 years.

Would you give up ten years of your life for $$$?

Bizarre.

I would suspect she's choosing to be a stay at home mom because her mom made the same decision when Katie and her siblings were little. Just because a woman gives up a lucrative job to stay home and raise her kids doesn't mean she's brainwashed. Anyone can make money. Not anyone can love and raise your children the way you can.

I can see taking time off but to give it up entirely sounds like a little stepford wife thingy going on.

Scientology is about brainwashing. If she were not a cult member, if she were an ordinary Christian or Jew, or even nonreligious, I wouldn't be surprised at her decision.

Not exactly Grace Kelly.

No, she's not. She's not Audrey Hepburn or Sophia Loren either. S'what? You would turn her down if she was the first to invite you to the Sadie Hawkins dance?

I think she's prettier than Julia Roberts. Roberts just had the advantage of being in a movie called Pretty Woman, even though the body in the famous poster for the movie wasn't actually hers.
