Tom Cruise: I wanted to marry Katie after the first day we met

Many of us are still reeling from Tom Cruise’s great dance moves at Sunday’s MTV Movie Awards, and Tom is still reaping the benefits of his hard work. He gave several interviews post-awards show, and there are even rumors that a full-length Len Grossman movie will be made, maybe by the same Tropic Thunder team. Regarding the dance, Tom admitted that he worked with Katie Holmes’ choreographer Tyce Diorio (I bet he did, that poor bastard), and Tom claimed that Katie loved it. She was there while we were working on it… You know, I can dance a bit and we rehearsed, and my wife’s a dancer and so I like dancing. It was a lot of fun – it was great. It was a blast.” Tom was also talking about his beloved KATE and how they fell in love “at first sight”. Oh, Tom.

Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes surprised us all by staying together for so long. After the couch jumping fiasco, we all thought the relationship was all for publicity. Everyone thought it was fake except Tom Cruise himself. Tom admits that he instantly fell in love when he met Katie.

He told OK! magazine: “I knew that I wanted to marry her after the first day I met her.”

“What’s even more interesting is that Katie confessed that when she was a teenager she dreamt of marrying me. Doesn’t it seem incredible?”

Tom also talked about his bromance with David Beckham. He explained: “David and I became friends from the very start. I really admire him as a person, father, husband, and athlete. He’s absolutely fantastic. He’s got a great competitive spirit and he’s a tireless worker with a clear mind and a solid body.”

Tom kills whatever heterosexual vibe he was working when he starts talking about Beckham’s “solid body”. You know what words he wanted to use, right? “Hard, tweak, tender, tight, bronzed, lick, God-like, and bounce a quarter off that ass.” Speaking of how Tom is really straight and he and Katie don’t have a contract, Blind Gossip (via Dlisted) had a pretty good blind item about what’s going on between Katie and Tom at this point.

By the way, why is Katie groping Angelina Ballerina?!? It’s for charity! And Katie is a Furry.

    Katie looks good in that blue dress. She’s looking better lately (MichaelK has that right), dressing better, her hair’s looking nicer – it’s all starting to work again.

    She must be close to finding her backbone.

  2. EB says:

    The truth about Cruise is known, and I do expect the end for his “marriage”.

    The man is desperate for a hit and resorting to this lame performance at the MTV Awards with JLo – and she is a washup too – and purporting to make film about this skit proves it. He’s doing the relevancy dance.

    Enjoy Eric Bana’s Tom Cruise:

  3. Gwen says:

    This is funny given all the rumours that he ‘interviewed’ five actresses for the role of ‘wife’. I guess Katie’s interview was so good he wanted to hire/marry her immediately? Or was it just that all the other women ran screaming?

    Katie looks so pretty in that blue dress! Remember when she was an actress and not just a trophy wife?

  4. Eileen Yover says:

    She’s starting to look like her old self again. Love the stripe dress! Want it!

  5. P.J. says:

    Katie’s hair is a few shades darker — black instead of dark brown, and those few shades really makes a difference. The black looks good with her light skin.

  6. Riley says:

    She seems a lot happier with more goofy, relaxed, less-scientology Tom rather than more uptight, in-your-face scientology Tom.

  7. dre says:

    I belive they are bot happy. So sick of hearing about how iserable they are, I doubt that is true! But I guess if thats all you have to talk about, so be it.

  8. Poopie says:

    Their kid is ‘available for lease as a companion’ FOR WHAT? am i missing something?

  9. Larissa says:

    oh Tom, couldn´t you just shut your hole for a decade or so?

  10. Atticus says:

    I’m probably just getting soft in my old age, but I am starting to think these two are for real. Their courtship and the early days of their marriage were odd to be sure, but it seems like they’ve settled into a happy life together. And Suri is friggin adorable. I doubt Katie is the pushover she’s made out to be in the media. Tom lately seems to have struck a good balance between his manic couch jumping days and his earlier heavily monitored days where he didn’t say much of anything. Perhaps I’m tired of all of the celeb bashing and just want to honestly believe the best about people and hope they really do have happy lives.

    Yours truly,
    Pollyanna

    PS: Katie really does look fantastic in that blue dress and Tom is HILARIOUS as Len Grossman

  11. original kate says:

    of course he wanted to marry her the day after they met – it was in his contract with xenu.

  12. Ursaline says:

    Love the look with the blue dress but that striped one is too close to her skin color and does nothing for her. Don’t like the messy curly hair either. It looks to me like the difference between getting dressed up on your own while in Mommy-mode and having time to actually have a professional help out.

  13. RHONYC says:

    i believe that.

    shoot…

    i had my boyfriend at “hello”, too.

    *tee-hee* 🙂

  14. lucy2 says:

    Gwen, I was thinking the same thing about the “wife auditions”! Who knows if that was all true, but it was quite a rumor.

    She is looking better.

  15. gg says:

    Of course he wanted to marry her – she looks like him. What I want to know is why does her hair look like a lace-front wig? What would make her hair fall out in the very front like that and have 1/2-inch of regrowth except pregnancy?

  16. No Sensei says:

    Tom: COME OUT OF THE CLOSET!

  17. d says:

    Yeah, that might have been a giveaway. What other hetero male mentions a guy’s body when describing them? I mean, he’s DEFINITELY noticed Beck. Then again, maybe he’s got short man, ugly-man envy (b/c Beck is undeniably and classically attractive). The more I think about it, the more I think it’s just envy. It fits as much as anything.

  18. irl says:

    what was with all the scientologists on that MTV awards? Will Smith, JLo and Cruise’s. Thought there was another 2 or 3 too but can’t recall right now. The show was that memorable.

  19. cindy says:

    “I really admire him as a person, father, husband, and athlete” I’m digging my eyes out now. Athlete(schmuck)!!!! Can I describe myself now as an athlete because i jog to the mailbox. Why Why Why do I torture myself. I’m sick.I cant stand him and yet I’m compelled to read. Thank you celebitchy for the fix

  20. Annie says:

    I swear I want to knock that stupid pinched grin or whatever the “f” it is right off her stupid face. Smile like a normal person you dumb bimbo.

  21. andrea says:

    ok, now i am sure. he is a wackjob and she is a twit. i have no idea if he’s gay or not, don’t particularly care, but he is NUTS. “i wanted to marry her after day one and she wanted to marry me as a teenager, how amazing”…..uuummm, is he 15?

    and since when is katie “a dancer” and anybody is “katie’s choreographer”?

  22. benny says:

    Cruise said he was interviewing actresses for a small role in Mission Impossible 3. If that’s true, why wasn’t Katie in the movie? Or did Tom not fall in love with his wife’s talent (or lack thereof)? That’s a little insulting to Katie, that she wasn’t even good enough for a small role in his movie.

  23. Jeri says:

    Hide the couches!

  24. Dingles says:

    Umm, when Katie was a teenager who DIDN’T dream of marrying Tom Cruise? I mean…he’s Tom Cruise.

  25. Ruffian9 says:

    Good thing he had a contract handy, then, wasn’t it?

  26. Ruffian9 says:

    Also this…

    “David and I became friends from the very start. I really admire him as a person, father, husband, and athlete. He’s absolutely fantastic. He’s got a great competitive spirit and he’s a tireless worker with a clear mind and a solid body.”

    …uh…”solid body”? How very ….hetrosexual of you to say so, Tom. Pretty sure you still can’t have him, though. Rumour has it young Becks is quite straight…

  27. a says:

    katie looks good in these pictures much younger and happier again.

  28. My2Cents says:

    If I had half the chance to Marry her would too. She is so beautiful.

  29. LB says:

    Huh. So maybe I should actually rent Tropic Thunder.

  30. Granger says:

    “…my wife’s a dancer…”?? HUH? Since when is Katie Holmes a dancer? Didn’t he watch that “performance” she gave on So You Think You Can Dance last year? It was awful!

  31. Another Pollyanna says:

    Does anyone else remember a few years ago when Tom Cruise stopped his vehicle on a highway to help a stranger who had car trouble? If I recall correctly he was alone so this was actually dangerous for him to do. Not something you hear of often…maybe ever. My point is that he seems like a nice person who lives a rarified life that probably few of us can relate to at all.

    I like most of his movies, am not crazy about the Scientology stuff but it’s not my business.

    He seems to be having a great time with his kids and wife. I would imagine he’s learning about life as he lives it, as we all do.

    I wish him well and wish him a thick skin regarding the bashing that goes on.

  32. gen says:

    I’m gonna say a divorice will happen 2011. The man is creepy!!!!

  33. di butler says:

    That interviewing thing is like “known gossip.” Looks like Keri Russell’s career is still in the Sh*tter, but look at the bullet she dodged! Tom Cruise–> Beckham’s hard body–>True Lurve.

  34. tee tee tee says:

    (hmm, somebody is doing some damage control here for tommy boi. haha!
    awww, isn’t that sweet?
    his wifey does look cute in the pics and is pretty and all that jazz….
    what about TC’s best friend cult leader David Miscavige who has been hiding out somewhere avoiding all the bad pr his church is getting worldwide.
