Tom Cruise has denied reports of an adult-sized pacifier that was custom-made to keep his girlfriend, Katie Holmes, silent during childbirth in accordance with Scientology edicts.

Hi publicist “dismissed the reports as nonsense,” so we can rest assured that Tom’s publicist doesn’t think it exists.

Here is Katie supposedly out to do some shopping yesterday. Commenters on the bulletin board where we found the pictures note that her stomach looks weird, but it may just be her outfit.
