Katie Holmes in Alexander McQueen at the Essence Black Women In Hollywood Luncheon


Katie Holmes attended the First Annual Essence Black Women In Hollywood Luncheon in Beverly Hills yesterday with husband Tom Cruise, wearing none other than the Alexander McQueen dress I simply can’t help talking about every few weeks. Remember, it’s the draped silk dress as seen on Sienna Miller last year, then Lucy Liu last month, and can be sold to you right now at BergdorfGoodman.com for the tidy price of $2,280. How do you think Katie looks without the McQueen black belt? I wish she wore it, it could have helped illustrate the draped detail and helped show of off her tiny waist. I wonder who will be spotted in this dress next…?

Katie's chic makeover is complete as she promotes latest film

Motherhood and marriage, not to mention a friendship with the fashion-forward Victoria Beckham, seem to have helped Katie Holmes blossom into one of Hollywood's most poised and polished leading ladies. The transformation from slightly nervous and awkward young woman to sophisticated style icon looked to be complete as the 29-year-old arrived to film The Late Show With David Letterman recently.

Posing outside the recording studio with her chic bob groomed to perfection and exuding confidence in a short red coat that showed off her leggy assets, the Mad Money star proved she's come a long way over the last couple of years. It was a strikingly different picture in June 2005, just a couple of months into her relationship with Tom Cruise, when she appeared to want to blend into the background as she arrived at the French premiere of War Of The Worlds.
These days the red carpet pro is perfectly at home talking to reporters and being snapped in haute couture outfits for glossy fashion spreads. While Tom can perhaps be credited for giving Katie confidence, it's close pal Victoria who introduced her to the fashion set, taking her along to international runway shows and perhaps inspiring her bob cut with her own famous crop.

Suri Cruise youngest ever client of designer shoemaker Christian Louboutin

Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes' 19-month-old daughter has had a pair of shoes specially commissioned for her tiny feet by the exclusive designer.


A source told America's OK! magazine: "They made a mould of Suri's feet and hand-made a pair of bespoke shoes for her. She is their youngest client."

Meanwhile, Tom and Katie attended the 59th annual Bambi Awards in Dusseldorf, Germany, November 29, where Tom was honored with the "courage" award.

The 45-year-old actor scooped the award for his latest movie Valkyrie, which focuses on a plot to assassinate Adolf Hitler in 1944.

The Bambi judges said: "Tom Cruise is making an international public familiar with a story that has never before been the theme of a major Hollywood production - the German resistance against the Third Reich."

Tom reportedly bored the audience at the German equivalent of the Oscars with his long acceptance speech.

His rambling monologue - dubbed over in German to be broadcast on TV - was over five minutes long and halfway through the crowd prematurely clapped, but the Top Gun star stayed on stage and continued his speech.

One German viewer said: "Tom talked about how gracious and welcoming the German people had been to him while he was filming ‘Valkyrie’, and then spoke about his meagre childhood and how he moved around a lot with his mother while he was growing up. He then launched into a lengthy talk about following your dreams, or something."

Another viewer said: "When the camera panned out many of the audience looked bored and perplexed.

"When he returned to his seat, Katie smiled slightly and looked down, you could tell that she was embarrassed by how over the top he was."

Katie Holmes in a new look at 59th annual Bambi Awards

Katie Holmes impressed in a new hair do walking the red carpet with husband Tom Cruise at the 59th annual Bambi Awards ceremony in Duesseldorf, Germany, on Thursday, November 29.


Both Katie and Tom were dressed in black to complement each other. Katie impressed in a floor length tight fitting strapless black gown with gold palettes cap sleeve bolero jacket and a dramatic new bob hair cut with a fringe.

Tom stood out in a double breasted black tuxedo suite with a black tie.

Commending Tom's effort the jury for the competition said in a statement:

"Tom Cruise is making an international public familiar with a story that has never before been the theme of a major Hollywood production: the German resistance against the Third Reich."

In the film Tom plays good Nazi Colonel, Claus von Stauffenberg, a German hero, who unsuccessfully attempted to assassinate Adolf Hitler with a briefcase bomb on July 20, 1944.
Tom overcame stiff resistance to his film from the German Defense Ministry which was reluctant to allow filming for Valkyrie at the "Bendlerblock" complex in Berlin where the conspirators were executed.

The Ministry later relented following an assurance from Tom that the film will show Stauffenberg in good light.

The Bambi is presented by German publishing giant the Hubert Burda Media Group. It honors achievement in film, television and music as well as sports, fashion and social engagement.

Katie Holmes completes marathon, goes to premiere

We've all done it. Completed a marathon and then gone straight to a film premiere, I mean. So I don't know why I'm even reporting this, but here you go...

In case you missed it, Katie Holmes ran the New York marathon on Sunday. She completed the 26.2 mile course in five hours, 29 minutes and 58 seconds - but as Glamour magazine pointed out, the most important part of this feat of human endurance was that she did it "wearing a baseball cap, purple vest, black leggings and the number F127". Katie also managed to run the marathon completely unnoticed... until the last minute, when Tom Cruise unfortunately ruined her disguise by turning up at the finishing line with their baby and giving her a big kiss in front of the cameras. Dammit!

Anyway, what does a girl do after completing a marathon? Why, turn up to her husband's film premiere, of course. Katie hit the red carpet with Tom in New York later that night looking a little tired (can't think why), but smiling like a trooper. Dressed in black, she was also sporting a new centre-parting, which I'm really not too keen on, but hey, have I run a marathon recently? Or ever? No. So I'll just shut up.

Tom, Katie and Suri Cruise outside Photography Studio in NYC

A family is reunited after Tom Cruise and daughter Suri rejoin Katie in New York City.


TomKat, Suri and entourage made their arrival at the studio, complete with entourage. Tom first helped his daughter out of the car and then assisted Katie, before they finally entered the building as the security detail prevented paps from getting too close.

On the Move
Tom: V-neck sweater, white shirt, pants and jacket. I look smokin’. So what if my wife is a few years older than my other daughter.

Katie: With this olive/eggplant striped number and neutral backpack, I’m ready for the next semester of California Univ.

Suri: Cute as I am, I could give Shiloh a run for her money.
Ok, so maybe Katie’s outfit is connected to her film. But if it isn’t, it certainly does nothing for her efforts to shrink the age gap between her and hubby Tom.

Suri Cruise Is The New Face of Gap's Baby Fashion

Suri Cruise is to become a star in her own right after she was signed as the new face of Baby Gap, according to reports. Proud parents Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes were reportedly offered a lucrative modelling contract by the clothes chain for their 16-month-old daughter to front an upcoming campaign.

Suri's first photoshoot was in October 2006 when she made the front cover of Vanity Fair with her parents. The pictures were shot by celebrity photographer Annie Leibovitz.

From the day she was born Suri has been a pampered child and is no stranger to the limelight.

The tot has reportedly been visiting a stylist every seven days to keep her luscious dark locks neat and trim.

However, it is claimed Tom and Katie have some peculiar demands over Suri's cut.

A source told the New York Daily News newspaper: "She is always naked and no one's allowed to talk around the baby."

Katie Holmes is a huge fan of the new trend for wide-legged jeans


A few months ago I certainly wouldn't have predicted that I'd be saying this, but out of all the different takes on the wide-legged jeans look so far, Katie Holmes seems to be working the trend particularly successfully - which is lucky really, because she is hardly photographed not wearing a pair at the moment!

Mrs Cruise herself favours J Brand Joplin jeans, and if you want to get your hands on a pair they're actually reduced to US$172 in indigo at the moment (click here to take a look). To imitate Katie's style on a budget, you can pick up these Lux wide legged jeans from Urban Outfitters UK for £48, Topshop's military jacket for £55 and the 'Far' red patent peep toe heels from Barratts which are £30.
What do you think?

Fashion Frisk: Katie Holmes at the New York Premiere of 'Hairspray'

On July 16th, at the Ziegfeld Theater in New York, Hollywood’s biggest stars rocked the film premiere of “Hairspray”, based on the hit Broadway musical. While everyone looked awesome on the carpet, most awesome of all was Katie Holmes.


The film’s storyline is about a larger-than-average girl who has aspirations of becoming a dancer and her mother. The girl, played by actress Nikki Blonsky is supported by overly shielding mom Edna, who is none other than John Travolta.


Also at the premiere were much of young Hollywood, James Marsden, Amanda Bynes, Brittany Snow, and Jamie-Lynn Sigler, as well as A-listers Kelly Preston, Michelle Pfieffer, Paula Abdul, Liza Minnelli and Nathan Lane.

Stealing the Show
Looking at Katie’s all-black ensemble what else can one say but wow! Back from Germany, she’s sporting a hot new do that matches daughter Suri’s short hair and looks just as cute. The coordinating short black dress with clutch bag and heels makes us want to drool over her 5”8 figure and forget about the film altogether. While pushing a man’s buttons is not rocket science, it’s not easy either. One obvious button is style. Katie’s marriage and new mom status have brought out poise and polish that we’ve not seen before. The result? Refreshing! The Holmester came to support pal John Travolta, a fellow Scientologist just like husband Tom Cruise. Strength in numbers is what we think.

Fashion Frisk: The Cruise Bash for the Beckhams

Sunday evening, July 22nd in the Museum of Contemporary Art was the setting for one of the year’s most exclusive events. It was a soiree thrown by Tom Cruise to welcome his new friends, the Beckhams.





The Museum in downtown Los Angeles, California, played host to Hollywood’s biggest movers and shakers. The guest list included no less than actress Demi Moore and Ashton Kutcher who previously threw a reception for the pair, Bruce Willis, Scary Spice Mel Brown, model Devon Aoki, Brooke Shields, Matt Lucas and partner, Eva Longoria, “Cocoon” director Ron Howard, Brian Grazer, Quincy Jones and Wesley Snipes. Partygoers rocked the dance floor before sitting down to classic American and British fare.


Hollywood A-Listers
The men chose formal suiting for the occasion while the women went for evening couture showing plenty of skin. All in all, they looked a classy group. Seen in this photograph shot the evening of the party, David and Victoria Beckham are flanked by power couples Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes and Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith. Tom looked dapper as usual in a black suit with aubergine silk tie. David sported his own kicking style in a charcoal gray suit with shadow striping and black tie. Will went for red carpet casual, dressed in a shimmering platinum suit with white V-neck shirt, coordinating white sneakers and rimless shades. The Independence Day star mellowed out the rest of the group with his laidback fashion. The wives chose to flash their millions but did it tastefully. Katester went for Hollywood glamour in a strapless scarlet gown with open-toe heels which made her tower over hubby Tom. David’s better half wore a short and strappy black dress with peep-toe platforms. And Jada donned a black minidress, bling at the ears and wrist, and a pair of black ankle boots.



The Look of Love
In this photograph of the two, TomKat seems happier than ever. Tom, recently arrived from taping in Germany, looks none the worse for wear in his suit while wife Katie is the ultimate lady in red. We have to say, even though she was never a misfit, the girl’s style has improved by leaps and bounds post-wedding vows. She’s bridged the gap between them in image if not in age. Not only that, but she’s one of the few celebs we know that doesn’t reach for the shades in public. Lives in her own skin, we love it!



Beckham Incorporated
Soccer’s First Couple comes to the States. What else could one ask for when neighbor Tom Cruise gives you a glitzy affair in a national landmark? It’s only right that David and V, who share their own brand together would also share the same hair color! But more than that, their outfits speak volumes about them. Beckham, who likes to change his look as often as Posh, brings his liking for snappy threads to LA. Victoria, in a dress with transparent outer layer and trademark hooters finishes the look. She’s so good in her taste in real estate she bought the Beckham home before David even stepped in it! The styles never clash for these two British expats. Here’s to many more goals, on and off the pitch for Mr. Beckham and his designer wife.



Femme du Jour
New bride Eva Longoria has a happy glow, and why not. The ABC star fizzes in a champagne bubble dress with parrot green pumps. The silver clutch, watch, and jewelry all showcase an amazing summer tan while the plunging neckline flaunts a great set of funbags. Gabrielle would approve.

Katie Holmes Turned Away from Hugo Boss Party

Reports are saying that major designer Hugo Boss threw a party for the opening of Berlin Fashion Week yesterday -- and when actress and slightly-psycho scientologist wife to Tom Cruise, Katie Holmes, tried to join in on the fun, she was denied entry. Katie had also brought her one-year-old daughter with Cruise, Suri, with her to the party.


The reasoning behind this snub was that "the guest list was closed and there were already too many people inside the event," reports the website contactmusic.com.


I don't know what to address here: the fact that a) celebrities like Katie Holmes think they can get in anywhere they go and don't seem to understand the phrase "guest list is closed"; b) that she brought her one-year-old daughter to a fashion party at a club-- who DOES that?; or c) that I doubt anyone in fashion really wants to be associated with crazy Tom and his crazy wife and their offspring...

The "Toxic" singer admits she is a great admirer of the Batman Begins star's fashion choices and plans to revamp herself as a similar "classy" lady.


She says, "I like clothes. But I like to be comfortable, too.

"Katie always looks so cute in her Armani and Manolo Blahnik stuff. I'm gonna go for that vibe and all the trimmings."

Katie Holmes faces challenge from wannabe porn star

Katie Holmes is facing a peculiar challenge - A small town hottie from Illinois, who recently changed her name to Katee Holmes, wants to debut as a porn star with a film that shows her being deflowered.


The blue eyed 18-year-old Katee is a student at the Fashion Institute of Design in Orange County, Calif. She stands 5-foot-9 and weighs 122 pounds.

Katee got in touch with Shy Love, an adult film veteran who runs Adult Talent Managers and has a Myspace profile with her creative ideas.

"I know it's pretty extreme to lose my virginity on camera, but I like the fulfillment and excitement I get from watching porn, so I figured [a movie] was the best place for me to lose it.

"How many people wished they could relive their first experience, if not to remember it but to learn from it, right?"

The Katie Holmes camp is not amused. Katie did a topless scene in the film The Gift (2000) but following her marriage to Tom Cruise she has studiously maintained her image.

"It's a really cheap shot," a rep for Katie told Page Six

"It's really kind of sleazy, using her name like that," a friend added.

Love, who is now managing the wannabe porn star says, "Katee is using the name as a tribute to Katie, who has always portrayed an innocence in everything she's done, beginning with 'Dawson's Creek.' "

Love has her own creative ideas on how to ramp up to the actual deflowering should take place.

"She comes to the porn world completely natural - with a perky pair of A-cup breasts that are far too perfect to have been constructed by any doctor. And she's not just a porn virgin, but an actual never-been-kissed virgin," she says.

A spokeswoman for Cruise told Page Six, "Obviously, Tom would support Katie in anything she decides to do about it."

Celebrity Watch: Katie Holmes on set in Louisiana

Seen in a recent photograph on the Louisiana set of her new film Mad Money with co-stars Queen Latifah and Diane Keaton, Katie looks like a whole new person.

Time magazine has called her “impossibly lovely”. She was named as one of the 50 Most Beautiful in People magazine’s 2003 issue. Not to mention the ingénue of television series Dawson’s Creek. Give up yet? She’s actress Katie Holmes.
Life and Hollywood have been kind to Holmes. She won an MTV Movie Award for Best Breakthrough Performance for a role in Disturbing Behavior and has done endorsements for Garnier hair color, Gap clothing, and Coach leather goods company apart from numerous magazine spreads. The five foot nine stunner emerged from trysts with Dawson’s co-star Joshua Jackson and actor Chris Klein to later marry heavyweight Tom Cruise in a lavish Italian castle and become a mom.
With daughter Suri recently turning one, the Cruises had much to be thankful for. On her birthday, everyone feasted on pizza and cupcakes prepared by Sprinkles, a posh bakery located in Beverly Hills. Their flavors range from banana and lemon coconut to peanut butter chip, feature imported ingredients, and the cakes retail for $36.00 a dozen. Apparently, they are enough to make Katie’s mouth salivate! There were even piñatas in dragonfly and butterfly designs. Seemingly, marriage and motherhood agree with the young Katie Holmes, now Cruise.
Cruisewear
Seen in a recent photograph on the Louisiana set of her new film Mad Money with co-stars Queen Latifah and Diane Keaton, Katie looks like a whole new person. Still the pretty face we always admired, but now with an air of class and sophistication we don’t expect from a 28-year-old, even in Hollywood. Donning a half-buttoned white cardigan, wide-legged pants and trendy open-toed wedges, Holmes restarts her film career after giving birth to Suri. She is escorted back to her trailer with no less than two security guards and watched over by police officers. But it’s all par for the course when your significant other is a box-office legend.
