There has been plenty of speculation on the way the fabulous Katie Holmes is to give birth to her baby. The little one could come at any moment and it appears that Tom Cruise and Katie are already battling over the baby.
No - they are not battling over how the baby will be born, but what happens if the pair split after the little one emerges. The rub reportedly is the baby's religion - Catholicism or Scientology?
Life & Style Magazine details in this week's report that Katie is miserable and if there is a split - as that magazine has predicted - Tom’s demanding sole custody of their child-to-be. That reportedly left Katie in tears.
Normally, a custody battle wouldn’t start until after a child’s birth. But nothing’s normal when it comes to Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes. Multiple insiders say Tom recently approached Katie with a shocking request: Give him sole custody of their baby, who’s due as soon as April. “Katie went absolutely nuts and stormed off in tears,” says one insider.
Since Tom, 43, went so far as to ask Katie, 27, to sign papers granting him custody, her dad, Martin Holmes, a Toledo, Ohio, divorce attorney, promptly became involved. Martin called Tom, the insider says, and accused him of treating his daughter like dirt. “If you don’t stop, there will be hell to pay,” Martin warned him.
Cue the rep: Tom’s rep denies the story.
There are many more details in the print article, but the speculated reason is straight out of South Park. Tom wants the baby to be raised as a Scientologist and not a Catholic.
It's tough to see Katie's dad allowing that to happen without a fight.
If you hear of any, ping me. I read somewhere (cannot remember where, must have been an article about Hubbard) that Hubbard considered Crowley his mentor.
Sick s**ts, both of them.
It sort of looks like the haunted house at Disney World.
Seems that this cruise fellow has "control issues." He seems to be starting the divorce proceedings a bit early.
IMHO, he’s laying it on a bit too thick.
Humor ping! :D
That's one way to kill a marriage before you get married and before the baby gets born. Just insist to the woman that she sign papers allowing you sole custody in the event of a divorce. Only problem is Katie Holmes' dad is raising hell and he's a divorce lawyer
This freaky behavior is reminiscent of how Michael Jackson hired a woman to have his children. Hired a brood sow.
I think we can FReep that!
Not that I was going to see it anyway - but, we could start explaining to the HollyWeirds that the crazier their stars are - the more we will stay away.
Who's with me!?
America, !@#$ YEAH!
It makes me think of how michaeljackson purchased his children, too!
As much as I dislike Cruise and his cult, at least I don't recall him bashing America like Clooney and his ilk.
that said, I haven't seen a TC movie since Cocktail. That was a lifetime's worth. ;o)
Tom Cruise just keeps getting more disgusting in my eyes... And I just got new glasses!!!
You mean stop watching the movies I'm already not watching?
Are they married?
How can a baby be a Scientologist or catholic for that matter?
I haven't seen one since Top Gun.
I haven't seen a Clooney movie since Batman (The Gay Caped 'man').
It's funny - I used to really enjoy movies - and was the first one to see all the new releases. I used to have these great Oscar Parties where we would give out prizes for correct guesses and I'd seen just about every movie up for an award.
Now, I probably see two movies per year at the theatre. I'm still a Netflix fan - (just saw North Country - by the way - and it's AWESOME) but don't give a hoot about the HollyWeirds anymore.
Also saw Mr and Mrs Smith with Mr and Mrs Brad-gelina Pitt-Jolie and wasn't all that impressed - the fight scenes lasted about twice as long as necessary. - Yeah Yeah - got the point.... ugh!
Oh - and saw "I was a Mail Order Bride" with Cary Grant on the plane and LOVED it! That's better than all the Tom Cruise Flix wrapped up into one.
I Was a Male War Bride (1949)
Captain Henri Rochard (Cary Grant) is a French officer who's paired up on assignment with an American female lieutenant, Catherine Gates (Ann Sheridan). After a while, the two fall in love and decide to wed. All is blissful until Rochard tries to accompany his wife back to the States and finds that the U.S. Army isn't as lenient as he previously thought. Now, Rochard must impersonate a woman in order to join his new bride.
I chuckled through Wedding Crashers. The Rules thing cracked me up.
Never saw Hitchhikers...
Probably the best films I've seen this year include: Hitch (cute), Stalag 17 (which we've already discussed), Team America (which was hilarious), Eternal Sunshine, and From the Earth to the Moon - Volumes 1-8.
Exactly the same here, DD. With Oscar night and Batman with Clooney, and saw Mr & Mrs Smith on the plane. There were other movies I saw on the plane, but I feel like a captive audience strapped into the seat.
Don't have time to go to the theater anymore and there are no movies so great that it can't wait for video or TV. Have much better things to do than sit in a cramped theater for 2+ hours! A guy kept asking me to go with him to a movie a few months ago and it was such a big turnoff.
