Tom Cruise gets frisky, affectionate with Katie Holmes: cheesy or cute?

fp_7989847_cruise_holmes_fp7_26_28

These are some new photos of Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes (and Suri!) from the weekend, where Tom continues to film One Shot in Pittsburgh, and Katie and Suri continue to look kind of zonked out for the paparazzi. Katie had been improving over the summer – her style was getting better, her hair and makeup looked great, there was life in her eyes – but now that she’s back to spending her days (and nights?) with Tom, it seems like Xenu is taking its (his?) toll. Hey, at least she’s not trying to make those overalls “happen” again. I really like her bellbottom jeans in the photos with Suri.

In the pics where she’s wearing the purple skinny jeans, I think she’s trying too hard to look like Duchess Kate. This seems like a Duchess Kate “casual” outfit, as interpreted by Katie.

As for Tom, he looks to be in good spirits, having worn his special “casual day” lifts so that he’s a full inch taller than his wife. Get a good look at his boots – they’re like clown shoes! They’re comically oversized, probably with the latest in lift technology. He even manhandled her for the paparazzi. I love that Katie seems like she’s wincing a little bit. The first photo (below) should be a caption contest:

    Thomas and Katherine are so cute together 🙂

  2. Maritza says:

    I think they truly love each other, they look beautiful together. All work boots have about 1 inch heels. She should wear flats more often.

  3. the original bellaluna says:

    How ’bout “just gross?” And she is looking so old! What happened?

    (And I had those purple jeans, in 7th grade. In 1983.)

  4. missy says:

    They’re so cute together. I know some will insist that their relationship is a sham and the photos are staged, but I think they’re the real deal. Their relationship has been attacked so much by the press over the past that I just don’t see the point in staying together if it’s all just a PR stunt.

  5. Squirrel says:

    Not all work boots have an arch at the front closer to high heels than ballet flats…. see last picture! Never mind the visible 1 inch sole, there’s a good second or even third inch hidden inside.

  6. Lantana says:

    Looking at those pics, it flashes back in my mind the time bf they were married when Katie talked about “dreaming” that she was married to Tom Cruise, how she had posters of him hanging in her bedroom, blah blah. Now she looks like she wants to say, “WHAT was I thinking?”
    Edited right after it posted as Squirrel’s comment wasn’t there when I started….ita, I thought the same thing – real lifts have the “work” on the inside.

  7. yuya says:

    My husband is 6’4, he wears workboots, they all have huge soles.

    I think they are cute and look happy together.

  8. Jackie says:

    his wife and daughter always look miserable. they are struggling and he is always desperately pretending everything is great for the cameras. so sad.

  9. Judy says:

    They look happy and wholesome…and authentic.

  10. sarah says:

    Wow, Katie looks older than Tom!
    It must be true that sperm injection keeps you young 😉

  11. OriginalGracie says:

    @the original bellaluna: “How ’bout “just gross?” :

    Right on. I was going to type for my comment: Gross. Gross. Gross.

    How come in the last month without Tommy Girl, Katie has looked so happy and normal? It’s because without him breathing down her neck with his laserbeam RULES she can be herself.

    Tom Cruise is a horrible man. A bully. A real crazy-man jerk. He lives that religion and that’s all that matters to him. The “appearance” of a happy family. Maybe someday Nicole Kidman will break her silence and tell what really went on. I bet it’s a doozy.

    Plus Tommy Girl is just gross with his constant need to make himself look manly and taller and “in charge”.

  12. Quest says:

    It kinda makes me cringe. It’s Tom, cringy, creepy Tom

  13. grace says:

    I think its real, have always thought it was real – find something and someone else to talk about, the TC & KH gossip isnt working anymore.

    • Sophie P says:

      Thank you! They are definetly real and all of the haters need to find someone new to gossip about. Just leave them alone

  14. poopie says:

    GROSS ON THE ENTIRE FAM !! he wears clown shoes, she’s xenu-fied and i just cannot stand the kid. it will be SOOO MUCH FUN to watch her as a teenager !!

  15. coconut says:

    maybe the boots are part of his costume??

  16. Kit says:

    He’s such a creepo! Did any of you see that scientology video where he talks about the accident… Run, Katie, run!!!

  17. christy says:

    Looks like there are a lot of scientology fans on here defending Tom.
    The while thing is gross. Has the smell of selling your soul for fame.

  18. whome says:

    i dont really have anything to say about the family… just that they are boots, whats the big deal, shit dont we wear push up bras!!! y are we hanging him to a cross for this. and i see pleanty of men who wear these kind of boots!

  19. Boo says:

    She looks like she cannot *stand* him. The looks on her face in the “playful” shots and the “hug” shot says, “ugh, get your f—ing hands off me, you disgusting pig.”

  20. Amy says:

    Did anybody else notice in the picture where they are hugging that she’s looking right at the camera? It’s like she’s saying “Did you get a good shot? I’d like the contractual obligation of happy pictures taken care of now so I can go back to my real life.” It looks so posed and uncomfortable.

  21. e.non says:

    that poor child; she never looks happy. and her awareness of being constantly under surveillance — coupled with the crazy that is xenu and her isolation — she doesn’t have a chance.

  22. NancyMan says:

    I’ll think its all real when he wears flip flops next to her..

  23. missy says:

    There were plenty of pics of Suri smiling over the weekend. PEOPLE has a cute shot of her riding a carousel on their website right now.

  24. Audrey says:

    You guys don’t get it. There are lifts INSIDE the boots, the lifts are not the soles themselves. I also think those “frisky” shots are so NOT sexy. It’s like he’s playing with a younger brother, not his wife.

  25. maggiegrace says:

    She is cringing. She can’t stand him touching her, detests it. It is so clear in these pictures.

  26. Mitch Buchanan Rocks says:

    Original Bella Luna I’ve got the same pants, same era lol. When I look at Tom I wonder how those lifts work, are they inside the boots too? Also Tom is wearing a Lot of makeup, a bit over done – he looks a bit like my Grandma when she was in the casket.

  27. Kenny says:

    Why does she always look like the homeless? How much money does she have to spend on decent clothes? Unless those raggedy sweaters are like $300 by some avant garde designer, why is she wearing that trashy stuff?

  28. machiavelli says:

    @Bite me – LOL!

  29. Turd Fergussen says:

    All for show.

  30. mia girl says:

    @Nancyman – “I’ll think its all real when he wears flip flops next to her.. ”
    Hilarious… and agree! But I wouldnt be surprised if Tom finds a way to put a lift into a flip flop too!

    And echo what everyone says about lifts working from the inside. My friend wears them (ugh) and you would be amazed at what a good pair can do. Now, it appears that Tom is not only going for the illusion of height, but also the illusion of a bigger size – hence the clown look. Fail.

  31. Chris says:

    They are just too odd. Do you think she has a brain cell in that head or just brain washed?

  32. Jenny says:

    He looks like he had some serious face tightening going on. I still say he should embrace his height like Daniel Radcliffe. Cruise is a throwback to the days of Alan Ladd who was tiny and had the taller women in his films walk in dug out troughs so he would look taller or only act with petite women, like Veronica Lake so he would be taller. But in this day and age, being smaller should not be that big a deal. Cruise grows and shrinks too much for people not to notice the obvious height enhancers.

    I won’t comment on their relationship as I don’t know what is or is not real these days or what is just for the camera.

  33. The Original Mia says:

    Nice lifts, Tom! I wonder if those are his usual lifts or whether he’s trying to appear even taller since Reacher is supposed to be 6’5.

  34. Rhiley says:

    “Get a good look at his boots – they’re like clown shoes! They’re comically oversized, probably with the latest in lift technology.”– This should go down as one of the best quotes ever written on the Celebitchy website. So funny and true. Tom has a Walmart butch look going down. I have to admit though that I feel kind guilty for thinking he looks kind of handsome. Cheesy but still handsome.

  35. atorontogal says:

    She sold her soul and now is paying for it. I don’t trust anyone who is in that “cult”. Some of the horror stories from those who “got out” are hair raising!! I suppose they both got what they wanted but at what cost? Poor Nicole never sees her kids because they are Scientologists and she’s not! What a life!!!

  36. kristen says:

    Tom Cruise, Scientology, and his Co$ minions have just sucked the life out of this poor girl’s eyes. What must Katie Homes’ parents think???

  37. Kara Ann says:

    The thing that bothers me THE LEAST about xenu-fied Cruise is his height. His hyper-intense, creepy, control freak persona is what makes him cringe-worthy.

    I feel sorry for Katie Holmes and her daughter. I really hope they get away from him especially while Suri is still so young. BTW, the Daily Mail’s (and other news organizations) obsession with pics of Suri is just strange because, for the most part, neither of her parents are huge draws anymore. Odd.

  38. Sandra says:

    I love him with short hair, he just may be the most handsome man on the planet. Please don’t grow it again! I like her casual outfit.

    I think they’re adorable and happy. I love them together. I can’t imagine what kind of stress is puts on a family to be constantly scrutinized / criticized in public. I know I couldn’t take that kind of pressure. Let them be happy.

  39. becky says:

    Ok, besided the Scientology crazyness – Suri does seem to have incredilbly devoted and loving parents, who will undoublty put her first. My question then is, if a child’s parents are wonderful in that sense, does that fact that the father, as well -meaning albeit very strange guy with very strong beliefs that might lead to a very odd upbringing, and a mother who might very well be an opportunist and a phony,and one who quite possibly accepted to bear the child of this man for less than ideals reasons, how does that affect you? Because although my opinion on Holmes is quite clear, I do believe that she changed once she became a mom, and i do think she puts Suri above her carreer, social-climbing and even, but defenetely, Tom. Tom, for his part, adores that little girl more than anything. So does all this love make up for the crazy? Does Suri have a chance of ending up a happy person? It seems evil to ask that, but given all the Scientology rumors, plus being from Hollywood, and being pap’d her whole life, she’s doesn’t have the easiest road ahead. Though she’ll always have pretty awesome clothes.

  40. azurea says:

    Suri seems to have inherited her mother’s legs.

  41. the original bellaluna says:

    Yeah, that’s not an “I’m so in love with him face.” That’s more of a “Please Xenu, hurry up and take the picture so he can stop touching me” face.

    I don’t know thing one about lifts. I’ve got the “tall” gene in my family, from my mother’s side (I’m around 5’10”), and hubs is 6’5″ in bare feet.

    But I do know that traditional workboots have a thicker sole and heel, and I also know those shoes look atrocious. Like a cross between bowling shoes and boots. No.

    Original Gracie – I bet a book by Nic would be AWESOME! I’d buy it. In hardcover. But I’m thinking there’s some sort of Sci-Co$ gag order in place. Isabella, Connor, I’m lookin’ at you!

  42. Pyewacket says:

    I don’t get the hate for this couple or their child. Really weird how they pretty much do their own thing, yet get hell for it.

  43. becky says:

    oh and katie was wearing those jeans way before Waity was even on the news, the firts thing I thought was that she was recycling her pants from two years ago

  44. becky says:

    @bite me
    goopy is that you among us plebians commenting on celebitchy?

  45. Pat says:

    Cute – these two have really made a go of it. The tabloids have been horrible to them but they seem to be able to just ignore it. And they seem to be in love. Good for them. I also think that they are very good parents.

  46. original kate says:

    he always seems really awkward with her, like he has no idea how to touch her naturally. she just seems to be putting up with it, like a high school girl who is dating the popular boy and wants to keep him so she laughs at his dumb jokes, etc. the kid always looks unhappy, poor thing. i wonder why they get pap’d so much? they’re pretty boring.

  47. Kloops says:

    It must be exhausting being married to him. All that crazy would get old fast

  48. jamie says:

    Okay I’ll admit it, Tom looks the best he has in years. Must be that new haircut.

  49. Astrid says:

    I’m cringing along with the rest of you. It’s all for show. Neither is happy and it’s all for show.

  50. atlantapug says:

    I’m glad you pointed out the height difference.
    WTH?? All of a sudden he’s 2 inches taller than Katie and we’re not supposed to notice?

  51. PrettyTarheel says:

    Ok, there’s several comments referencing how happy and in love the Holmes-Cruise relationship appears. Are we looking at the same pictures? Or has the CO$ infiltrated CB now? Please go away. Where there’s smoke, there’s fire? Ever heard that one? Well, there is enough smoke swirling around Tom Cruise to indicate a 3-month forest fire in a July drought.

    Being a relatively tall woman, married to a slightly below average height man, I have to say I find it sad that he feels he must wear lifts. Real love knows no height requirements.

  52. blouson says:

    Maybe, just maybe, Katie is not comfortable with affection in front of papparazzi. I would be embarrassed. Tom loves it however. SO, while I personally fall on teh critical side of teh TomKat debate, I’m just going to propose an alternative to she hates his guts. Which is what her face looks like in these shots. Maybe she just hates PDAs.

  53. echolocate says:

    @NancyMan, your flip-flop comment put an image into my head of Tom wearing those unflattering platform flip-flops. Yikes!

    @azurea, I think Suri is cute, but I noticed her legs, too. Not in a bad way, but they always look more muscular than I’d expect for a little kid. I wondered if all of her elegant footwear is toning her legs so they are visibly different from those of the kids running around in their sneakers. Or maybe she’s taking early dance lessons?

    Tom definitely needs to keep the short hair. And whatever work he’s had done, it’s good (and subtle). If I was a star and needed to have work done, I’d ring up Tom and Demi Moore (and Meg Ryan for the name of one doctor to avoid).

  54. minnie says:

    Robert downey Jr. isn’t shy about his heels when he needs them in set:
    http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_NTsmHd70xNw/S-3ZhPZJ0KI/AAAAAAAAB7Y/9-2CKsiUUhw/s1600/robert-downey-jr-on-iron-man-2-set-.jpg

    probably Tom’s weird sharacter is what makes him to wear those contrived shoes.
    He should embrace his height. We all know he is aroun 170-172 cm, more or less the same as RDJ.

  55. palermo says:

    In some photos she’s at least a foot taller than he is, magically he is taller than her in these, he must have huge lifts inside those boots. I think their relationship is one of the most creepy out there. It really is like she had a lobotomy.

  56. NM9005 says:

    They’re both actors (one better than the other) and she clearly knew what would happen when she signed on. Her contract should be running until 2015 or another baby. I don’t believe for a second they are a real couple, just like he and Nicole weren’t real. All planned just like Will & Jada, John & Kelly.

    Tom Cruise is just plain creepy and can’t even pull the “major movie star” card anymore. His Scientology crazy ruined that privilige. Damn, and to think I found him scorching hot in Top Gun.

  57. Heather M (Heather) says:

    @biteme: heheee. For some reason, this tickles me…

  58. Boo says:

    He feels he has to wear lifts for the same reason he feels he has to hide his obvious homosexuality: when one makes one’s very lucrative living playing the part of the macho dude, being shorter than women and liking other dudes seems a sure way to blow(heh)your ticket on the gravy train.

    What I find so odd is that he is so ultrasensitive to THOSE issues about how people perceive his masculinity, and yet he somehow cannot see the irreversible damage his attachment to CO$ has done to his image–and to CO$’s image, too. Surely no one who sees Suri and knows their CO$ parenting craziness can think that CO$ is a great idea for this child–or any other child. His blind spot is about ten miles wide.

  59. Linnie says:

    It looks to me like he was having one of his hyperactive moments which Kate is probably used to. And what the f**k is wrong with you people hating on a little kid. My granddaughter has skinny, bony little legs like Suri’s. I think they’re adorable. I would have to fight you if you ever said anything bad about my granddaughter.

  60. Victoria says:

    Is it me or has Tommy been drinking from the youth of Katie’s fountain. She looks older than him.

    Either way, completely photo op. When is the last time we’ve seen them together like this. Better yet, when was the last time we saw him with SAuri?

  61. Ruffian9 says:

    “I also think those “frisky” shots are so NOT sexy. It’s like he’s playing with a younger brother, not his wife.”

    Nailed it.

  62. Lindy says:

    I really DO think she looked so much livelier, more put together, and composed and with-it this summer when she was spending some time away from Tommy-boy. I even went back and looked at some of the pictures and it seems to me at least that it’s true–she’s a happier camper when she’s away from him. Not exactly a ringing endorsement of their marriage.

  63. echolocate says:

    @Linnie, if you thought I was being negative about Suri’s legs, you may have misinterpreted my comment. I was just saying her legs are toned for a young girl, and that it might be the varied fancy footwear or dance lessons.

    I read @azurea’s comment as a compliment about her having long legs like her mother, and was building off of that.

    I don’t know what Suri’s behavior is like, but I think she’s very cute, legs too. I wouldn’t make fun of your granddaughter either (unless she competes on “Toddlers and Tiaras,” in which case I make no warranty, and you might need to beat me up). 🙂

  64. Sue says:

    The first set of pictures they look like their having a good time but in the last 2 pictures Katie looks like she over it and has that dead look in her eyes again.

  65. Linnie says:

    @echolocate – It wasn’t your remark. I thought that @azuria was commenting on Suri’s legs in a negative way because everyone comments on Kate’s legs as they are a bit on the heavy side and we can’t help what we’re born with so I find that kind of criticism of people offensive. Plus I can’t stand it when people make negative comments about children. My apologies to @azuria if that is not what she meant. And BTW, if I ever saw my granddaughter on Toddlers and Tiaras, it would be my son and daughter-in-law that I would beat up first. You would be welcome to stand behind me and shout insults at them.

  66. clare says:

    Ah, this thread takes me back to the old TomKatCrazy days! It seems some of Tom’s and the co$ staunchest fans have found Celebitchy…

  67. Eve says:

    Hilarious comments on this thread and I agree with whoever said above that she looks grossed out by him in some pictures.

    Can’t blame her for that, I’d be grossed out too.

    Wait! What am I saying? I would NEVER marry someone like him to begin with…no, not even if that (theoretically) helped my career. Katie, dear…you got yourself into this situation all by yourself.

  68. Sarah says:

    Anything to do with those two becomes automatically puke inducingly cheesy. And I’m talking 10 year old mouldy cheddar here.
