Pinkett Smith Says Holmes Is No Prisoner
Thursday May 3 4:04 PM ET


Jada Pinkett Smith says good friend Katie Holmes is an equal partner in her marriage with Tom Cruise.

"People think Tom and the Church of Scientology got something on Kate? They don't," the 35-year-old actress and wife of Will Smith tells People.com in a story posted Thursday. "Kate is running her own show. And she's a great mother. Her kids Connor, Bella, Suri are dynamic children and are extremely happy. And her husband is very, very happy."

Pinkett Smith denies reports that Holmes, 28, is a prisoner in her marriage to the 44-year-old actor, who's been depicted by the tabloids as a controlling husband.

"It burns my soul I see her in the house with Tom; he doesn't have that on her! ... Let me tell you: Kate ain't no little wimpy kitty cat," says Pinkett Smith, who also calls Holmes a "tigress."

The Smiths close friends of the Cruise-Holmes clan attended the couple's lavish wedding in Italy last year. Pinkett Smith says Holmes "did not break a sweat" amid the media frenzy.

Dark-haired, blue-eyed Suri was born last year again, media frenzy. Cruise has two children, Isabella and Connor, from his previous marriage to Nicole Kidman.

"She's young, she popped into motherhood very fast," Pinkett Smith says of Holmes. "If you think about the transition she's done, with as much grace she's had, and on top of it with the attacks I don't know how she does it."

Pinkett Smith says she's amazed "how people want to focus on `She's tied up in the basement and he throws steaks to her at night and she gets to see Suri only on Sundays.' It's ridiculous."


Since when are Connor and Bella "her" kids. Did she adopt them? I also love the last quote about being tied in the basement, etc.

I love that even Pinkett Smith is amazed!

 

[Nancy]

I love that even Pinkett Smith is amazed!

And she called her Kate...not Katie.

I wish I could find the pictures on line that are in the new gossip magazines. There is one of Brooke Shields daughter taken recently and she looks way smaller than Suri. (and since Brooke and her husband are BOTH tall, I would expect their child to be rather long)

 

[CindyCan]

We all fell off the bandwagon...

Why? Is it because all the "TomKat is fine" news died out? And, if so, why did it die out? Maybe because Paris Hilton went to court?

Here's a great article that explains what happened (allegedly). It's long, but I found it to be very funny!

My favourite line is near the bottom (if you care to read that far!):

Kat(i)e BFF Victoria Beckham (who probably calls her Katie).

TomKat thunder stolen by Paris Hilton

Now I'm going to try to find a pic of the blue hair. If I can't, I know we have experts here!

Are the Travoltas Ignoring Their Son's Autism?

Is Scientology preventing John Travolta and Kelly Preston from acknowledging their son, Jett, 14, has autism?

Reportedly, the Scientology couple will not publicly admit that their son is afflicted with this condition, as it would label him a "degraded being" that brought his affliction onto himself, according to the doctrine of Scientology.

A Florida neighbor of John and Kelly's has stepped forward, claiming to be "disgusted" with the couple's behavior.

Hollywood Interrupted, who conducted the interview, has qualified their coverage of Jett's condition by stating:

"Rumors about Jett Travolta's disability have been floating around for years, but when no less than five sources (including a media rep from the Autism Society of America (ASA), an executive from Cure Autism Now, a major Hollywood producer and parent of an autistic child, and a Hollywood actor-parent) reported that Jett Travolta was afflicted did we decide to deliver this story. Scientology will not even recognize the disability, let alone the myriad therapies for treating it."

John and Kelly's neighbor, who has an autistic daughter, claims that when he asked John about treatment options John claimed that "we involve him in the arts" and then offered his neighbor a book on Scientology.

The neighbor also angrily claims:

"Jett does not speak at all. He has not even been taught how to communicate. They avoid taking him out in public. We struggle every week to pay for our daughter's therapy. How dare he ruin his own son's chances of recovering! We want to get the word out on this."

The couple has a well-known anti-psychiatry stance and have recently demonstrated their denial of Jett's condition by:

Reportedly, turning down invitations to participate in autism fundraisers, and most recently refusing to participate in a local celebrity golf tournament if a connection to autism advocacy was promoted. The organizers of the charity tournament scheduled at the Golden Hills Country Club in November are alleged to have changed the billing from an autism event to the more generic "fundraiser for disabled children" to accommodate the star.

Last year John's brother, Joey Travolta, even produced a documentary about autism, a film which John and Kelly chose not to promote. Additionally, they refused to attend the premiere, an event that was sponsored by the organization Cure Autism Now.

The Cure Autism Now and Autism Society of America officials credited Sylvester Stallone and former pro football players Doug Flutie and Dan Marino as celebrity parents of children with autism that have helped raise awareness and reportedly share their frustration with what they perceive as Travolta's "denial" stemming from Scientology's rabid hatred of psychiatry.

The Travoltas have long blamed their son's disability on Kawasaki Syndrome-related "environmental toxins," specifically carpet cleaning chemicals.

I don't doubt that John and Kelly love their son and I'm sure that they are only doing what they think is best for him. But, I must admit these details are disturbing. And I wonder, why aren't they speaking out to defend themselves?

 

[KristiKelly]

It's very sad, on the verge of neglect if you ask me.

 

[Daxx]

If everything is so allegedly "amazing" and "wonderful" with Tom & Kat(i)e's marriage, then why aren't they just ignoring the media stories? Why do all these celebs have to come out and say how "amazing they are" (allegedly) and how "wonderful" their marriage is (allegedly) and how it's what Kat(i)e wants (allegedly -- huuuuge allegedly)? Why does People mag. have to write an article on how allegedly amazing things are!?!?

Why do they feel that they have to defend their marriage? Let's face it, the minute you tell the media how "amazing" your marriage is and how "wonderful" things are ... things can't be that great!!!!

 

[KristiKelly]

Let's face it, the minute you tell the media how "amazing" your marriage is and how "wonderful" things are ... things can't be that great!!!!

Yep, reminds me of the Britney Spears gum-smacking interview with Matt Lauer, where she talked about how great their marriage was.

I just got back from a volunteer group that my family is going to start volunteering for and heard an interesting story.

It seems a lady in town was asked to be an extra on the set of Mad Money which is being filmed here in Shreveport. She is of Russian heritage and has a strong Russian accent. She was on the set and she ran into a woman on the set. Something happened and the woman asked the Russian lady if she knew who she was? The Russian lady said she didn't know who she was. Turned out it was Katie Holmes. Katie was very upset that this lady did not know who she was, since she was a star in the film. Katie thought the lady was following her around (the Russian lady was an extra because of her accent - she had a speaking role) so she had her banned from the set because she thought the lady was a terrorist.

The Russian lady was horrified that anyone would think she was a terrorist.

Katie, the Prima donna, maybe????

 

[Daxx]

Katie, the Prima donna, maybe????

No ... Kat(i)e the whack-job. (allegedly)

Special thanks to Tommyboy (allegedly) for that one. I bet Tommy told
Kat(i)e that she should not trust people w/accents b/c they're not Scientologists. I'm shocked that Tom wasn't there to control the extras himself.

 

[arminnie]

Katie thought the lady was following her around.

She doesn't seem to mind being followed around by her Scientology handlers.

 

[my4kids]

Katie, the Prima donna, maybe????

No, paranoia. I guess when you think your husband is like Christ, that you would get a little weird like that.

 

[Heidict]

The Travoltas have long blamed their son's disability on Kawasaki Syndrome-related "environmental toxins," specifically carpet cleaning chemicals.

I have read up on Kawasaki Syndrome. The only damage that it can do is cardiac related. Therefore, it can cause damage to the heart. It would not cause the obvious problems that Jett is having. It is clear to everyone, even his parents, that he is autistic. It is so incredibly sad that they would hinder him by not allowing him to seek medical attention because their cult says that there is something wrong with him if he does. I can't understand being that brainwashed that I would put my own childs health and well being in danger.

Here is another new article from a reporter at the BBC. Of course, not much of the info is new. Same ole Scientology crap. Loved this quote though.

In our hotel a weird stranger spent every breakfast listening to us. In all, we count 13 strangers - private investigators? - who were following us. Scientology denied sending PIs after the BBC.

If that was me, and I knew that this "stranger" was a scientology plant, I would have had some fun with him. I would have been talking about stuff to make his ears burn!!!
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/americas/6650545.stm

Still, can't understand how people can be so lonely, so guilable, so stupid, so sucked in and so brainwashed to believe something like this:

L Ron wrote that 75 million years ago an intergalactic space alien lord called Xenu kidnapped Thetans to earth, dumped them in volcanoes and blew them up with atomic bombs.

 

[Heidict]

No, paranoia. I guess when you think your husband is like Christ, that you would get a little weird like that.

He is in no way, what so ever, like Christ. He just thinks he is. Of course, that is what his stupid cult wants us all to believe!

I've been following this thread for awhile now...you ladies are hilarious! I've learned so much about scientology from all the links that CathrynRose has posted.

Anyway, a couple of months ago I forwarded this thread to my MIL, b/c she's fascinated with the alleged Kat(i)e brainwashing. She sent me this link of mother's days poems that I thought you all would get a kick out of:

Okay, THAT was funny!! Thanks for sharing!

These are two articles on MSN this morning.

The image rehabilitation campaign of Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes continues. On the heels of affirmations from friends that the tabloid-topping twosome are "shockingly normal" comes word that Katie is doing her best to bribe endear herself to the estimated 200 cast and crewmembers on the Shreveport, La., set of "Mad Money."

People magazine, TomKat's preferred purveyor of all positive PR, reports that on Friday the nonwimpy little kitty-cat gave her co-workers a sugar high courtesy of some frosting-covered treats.

"We got cupcakes," says an anonymous cast member, who was apparently unwilling to go on the record about such a controversial topic as partaking in Katie's favorite snack food. "They were good, too."

The previous Friday, Mrs. Cruise had about seven dozen pizzas jetted in from Chicago and baked in town, an offering that was also met with a reserved response from an unnamed nosher.

"It was a lot of pizza," the mole relates to the mag. "We had veggie, sausage, pepperoni. It was good pizza."

The Friday freebie tradition reportedly began three weeks ago, when Holmes handed out 300 ice creams cones on a particularly steamy day.

No word on whether those, too, were "good."

Cruise, meanwhile, has been a presence on the set, says the mag, although paparazzi have somehow failed to capture him doing his patented grinning and glad-handing.

He's reportedly been hanging with 1-year-old daughter Suri, who's been showing off her very advanced verbal skills -- she sings, talks and says "hi" on command -- to the appreciative crew.

The mop-topped tyke looked "just as happy as could be," a more enthusiastic source gushes to the mag, adding, "They all truly could not have looked happier ... They were just like any other family in the South."

Leah Remini has taken a much-needed time-out from defending fellow Scientologist Tom Cruise to defend herself against rumors that she's trying to bring galpal Jennifer Lopez into their E-meter-filled fold.

"Two girls can't hang out together? What does that have to do with religion? I just don't understand it," the proselytizing "King of Queens" actress huffs to People. "I would never question, 'Such-and-such is hanging out. Does anybody know her religious beliefs? Because that's why they're probably hanging out together.'"

Lopez, whose father is a longtime L. Ron Hubbard adherent (she's repeatedly denied being a "Dianetics" devotee), is "a fabulous girl," says Remini, before modestly adding, "I'm fabulous to hang out with. But it's like, 'What could these two have in common? She must be trying to convert her!'"

As for those tabloid tales claiming Leah was trying to convince J.Lo to join her in a Thetan-free lifestyle in order to aid her in her quest to become a mother, she says it's so much fiction.

"I read once that I was trying to get Jennifer to do Scientology because it helps with fertility. I don't know what that's about," she rails. "That's bull -- that we're sitting there at the Polo Lounge talking about fertility. I think Jennifer knows how to get pregnant."
