Oh me, oh my-does baby Suri really exist???update now aka "The Suri Challenge"

[my4kids]

Yes! Thanks for that, you are saving me from numerous lawsuits!!


Bad news on the Scientology front.

They are trying to get their teeth into the VT students. They hascedispatched hoardes of the alleged thetan dwelling people to VT to "help counsel" them. BS!!! They are doing nothing more then trying to take advantage of people who are suffering. It sickens me that they are able to do this. I wish the school could just not allow them on campus. The students need to be protected from these alleged money hungry, mind controlling, idiotic, sadistic people.

Ohhh, my stomach has that sick feeling.

From MSNBC:
"LOS ANGELES - Tom Cruise's latest effort isn't for the big screen. It's for the New York police, firefighters and paramedics of Sept. 11.

Cruise was to appear Thursday at a private dinner in Manhattan to raise money for the New York Rescue Workers Detoxification Project, a program he co-founded in 2002. His wife, Katie Holmes, was also expected to attend.

The program, based on principles developed by Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard, offers free treatment to emergency workers who suffer breathing difficulties and other health problems stemming from exposure to toxins at ground zero after the Sept. 11, 2001, terror attacks.

"Nearly six years later, many are still paying a price for their heroic service at the World Trade Center. This is a profound injustice," the 44-year-old actor said in a statement to The Associated Press. "This project has demonstrated that recovery is not only possible, but an incontrovertible fact."

The program has treated 785 workers since its inception, said director Jim Woodworth. Each worker is given vitamins and nutritional counseling and participates in daily exercise and sauna sessions. The program takes about 30 days to complete, he said.

"We wouldn't be here if it wasn't for Tom," Woodworth said.

Patrick Bahnken, president of the New York Fire Department's union of emergency workers and paramedics, said there was some initial concern the program would include proselytizing and religious rhetoric. But the program is secular and results have been positive, he said.

"The majority of our members have reported an improvement in their quality of life," Bahnken said.

New York City officials say some 400,000 people were exposed to ground zero dust and 71,000 have enrolled in a long-term health monitoring program for people with and without health problems. Most experts believe there are thousands of people still sick years after ground zero exposure."

As if vitamins will help respiratory problems.... Wonder what kind of kool-aid they are serving these people.

Like, so which is it?? A religion? a Health and Vitamin coop? a medical establishment? I don't get it. They can't get in to that sort of stuff, I know Catholics run hospitals and so so Methodists and Lutherns and Baptists, but they actually practive REAL MEDICINE in these places, this cult ( I refuse to use the word religion alledgedly) makes up their own.

I guess, after a year (allegedly), we all admit that Suri exists (allegedly).

But...I would have LOVED to have been at this party. A great opportunity to compare Suri & Grier! I'm surprised T&K actually were willing to put the 2 together...although I guess it's an opportunity to show how much more ADVANCED their daughter is (allegedly) for a 12 month old!

Suri Attends Grier's Party

Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes flew daughter Suri to Los Angeles to attend Brooke Shields' daughter's birthday party.


(BANG) - Tom Cruise, Katie Holmes and daughter Suri flew to Los Angeles for Brooke Shields' daughter's first birthday party.

Suri - who was born on the same day in the same hospital as Brooke's daughter Grier on April 18 last year - arrived at the weekend party wearing a frilly dress.

Tom and Katie presented Grier with a huge gift wrapped in pink and yellow paper.

'Anchorman' star Will Ferrell was also invited to celebrate Grier's birthday, and arrived with his sons, three-year-old Magnus and three-month-old Mattias.

Brooke had revealed Grier's party would be Tweety Bird (Tweety Pie) themed party because Brooke says the cartoon character reminds her of her daughter.

Suri celebrated her own birthday on the set of Katie's new film 'Mad Money' in Shreveport, Louisiana. Tom flew out with his daughter to spend the day with Katie last week.

[Deb & Bill]

I've seen two different reports on Suri's party. One she celebrated with her mom in Shreveport and the other that the entire family celebrated in Los Angeles at their home.

 

[Sthronds]

We are forgetting that Suri celebrated her birthday in January, so no wonder it was low-key in April. Allegedly.


On a side note, I have heard the word allegedly used a lot lately. They use it on the radio when they do the celeb gossip and I think they used it on Best Week Ever last week. I'm thinking they read here!

Suri Attends Grier's Party

Ah! See! in that article it says that Tom flew out with Suri to meet Katie!!! So the kid isn't with her in Shrevesport!!!! He still has her under his control!!!!!!!!! Kat(i)e can't make a break for it while she is filming the movie!!!!!!!!!

 

[Piffle]

Tom wants Kat(i)e to get schooled.

Seriously, is there anything more frightening than the prospect of Scientology parenting classes?

 

[Heidict]

Wow, Tom is going farther and farther over that edge. Nothing better then insulting a first time mother by suggesting parenting classes. Is the child being harmed or neglected? Why does he feel it's necessary?

Oh wait, I wonder if Katie spoke to Suri? Bad Mommy!!!

This girl has dug herself into such a deep hole I dont' know if she will ever be able to get out with her daughter. I just can't help feeling sorry for the 2 of them. He will control their lives till he dies, and even then he will probably control it from the grave.

 

[KristiKelly]

Okay, I've thought about how I would handle my escape if I were in her position.

1st, I would arrange a nice family dinner somewhere where the bathroom is near the front of the restaurant (of course I'm sure TC wouldn't approve of anywhere like that). Then (no flames), I would give Suri a dose of Milk of Magnesia (trust me it won't hurt her, DD almost 2 has to take it quite often). I would give her enough to give her one of those wonderful "blow outs", you know, out the top, up the back & legs. Now, I can guarantee you IF Tom Cruise is a man (up for question still though ) that he will gladly step aside and let Kat(i)e clean that up. Then, I would have Posh waiting outside in a getaway car and I would run, run, run dirty diaper and all.

As far as custody goes, we all know that Suri is not really his and I think it could be easily proven with a little DNA sample UNLESS Scientology has figured out how to change that. Then, sure she might have to share custody with the real dad (whomever that may be) but it couldn't be nearly as bad as that whack job.

So what do you think? It could work.

I't certainly worth a try!!!

Good in theory ... but I think I've found a fly in the ointment. Isn't Kat(i)e allegedly always surrounded by scientology handlers who go to the bathroom w/her?!!? That might cause a problem. I think their drinks need to be drugged w/some powerful stuff to knock them out before she goes to the bathroom.

Do you think she has "handlers" w/her all the time at this movie set? That's the only way she could escape is via the movie set. And, I doubt she'd leave Suri behind. If Tom's holding Suri captive while Kat(i)e's filming, there's not much she can do.

Give them Milk of Magnesia as well, large dose. Can't stop someone if you can't stop.

I'm sorry, I can't stop! Here's another article for you. Long-winded, so I only quoted a couple of sections:

Hollywood Wives (the whole article)

Hollywood Wives used to be plucked from obscurity to "do lunch" until the Hollywood Divorce. Now there's a new trend: Actresses playing the role of Hollywood Wife, with Katie Holmes at the top of the A List. Gretchen Drummie asks: Are there auditions?


by Gretchen Drummie



"They lunch at Ma Maison and the Bistro on salads and hot gossip. They cruise Rodeo Drive in their Mercedes and Rolls, turning shopping at Giorgio and Gucci into an art form. They pursue the body beautiful at the Workout and Body Asylum. Dressed by St. Laurent and Galanos, they dine at the latest restaurants on the rise and fall of one another's fortunes. They are the Hollywood Wives, a privileged breed of women whose ticket to ride is a famous husband. Hollywood. At it's most flamboyant."

-- Synopsis of Hollywood Wives by Jackie Collins, 1983


Jackie Collins' stinging portrait of a Hollywood Wife in the 1980s stands the test of time ... albeit with a few alterations. Update Ma Maison to The Ivy; trade in the Mercedes for a bungee cord with a rappelling hook; power shop at Barney's to fill the emotional void (dropping $200 k in one year); have the personal trainer come "in" to the compound for a workout thus eliminating chance juice bar encounters with former friends who might seek to deprogram you; and encase yourself only in Armani even at the soccer field where you pretend to be engrossed in your step-kid's games whilst hiding your newly-acquired-vacant-eyed stare behind giant sunglasses and idly fantasizing how you'll go over the wall at 1:03 a.m. while all the others are dancing around the altar ...

Most importantly: Know that your ticket to ride is a famous master, er, husband. And drive the point home by getting quoted saying things like: "I love calling Tom 'Husband.'" Blech. We'll take a vowel for zombie, Vanna.

Ok, so we jest, but there is a new, hot trend these days – actors are marrying actors and thus the Hollywood Wife isn't quite what she used to be.

Of course the most extreme example of the New Hollywood Wife is Katie Holmes, oops, Kate Cruise. Rosenblatt says she's "assumed the wife role over the star role (trust us, acting in Mad Money is no Batman. Good career move there Tom.) It could be because she's really into the mommy thing (but then why change your name?) or just because she feels it's the only way to be a true Hollywood Wife. I'm not saying she's not in love with him, but I suspect there's a lot more going on than meets the eyes."

Perhaps the modern Hollywood Wife who did it right is Nicole Kidman. She married "up," got a great career, and escaped bigger than before. Then there's Victoria (Posh) Beckham who's about to become a Hollywood Wife with BFF Katie as guide. She will fit the mold to a T, right down to the reality show.

Anyway, we decided to focus in on some of the more prominent Hollywood Wives of the moment including Katie Holmes, Jennifer Lopez, Julia Roberts, Jennifer Garner and Kelly Preston. In each case, except JLo and Julia, the man is still the alpha dog ... We've asked our experts, Marshall the casting director, Rosenblatt the psychotherapist and Nikki, Psychic to the Stars for their perspective. And we've graded them, better or worse.

"None of these marriages is really long term in the future, which is an unfortunate thing. But I guess that's Hollywood for you," Nikki told us.




KATIE HOLMES: Went from Dawson's Joey Potter to Mrs. Tom Cruise in the blink of an eye after getting engaged within six weeks. Katie became a Hollywood Wife in November, 2006. She traded in her apartment-lifestyle for an over-the-top luxurious mansion existence which some have compared to a gilded cage. The jury is out on whether this is better or worse for Katie careeer-wise, who has in fact done some steadily decent work pre-Cruise. But hey, it worked for Nicole. As for personally, one word: Scientology. Whatever that means...

Jeff Marshall: WORSE. "Katie Homes is definitely worse. Her career is essentially over because of her husband's meddlesome ways. She appears to have sold her soul to the devil ... I hope the price wasn't too high."

Rebecca Rosenblatt: WORSE. "It could be a new-mom fatigue look. Or, the "I better tread carefully shocked look. (Referring to the aforementioned vacant eyes.) But, Katie may feel she's doing better, indeed, since she supposedly wants this, or she wouldn't be trying so had to make it work."

Nikki: BETTER. "This fairytale wedding will be over soon. It's an experience for her so I wouldn't say it is worse but I just think she's not going to be with him forever and will be with someone closer to her age. I don't think it's been bad for her – it got her out there and she likes Tom. But, it doesn't mean she's going to be with him in the future."

The Scoop: W-W-WORSE. Run Katie. Run. Over the wall. You can do it Batgirl.

And for the aforementioned alleged getaway plan, I say some special kool-aid will put the handlers out for a while. They're used to drinking that stuff, and it won't taste any different!

Great Article...thanks!

 

[Deb & Bill]

Come on, people. It 's been days since anyone has posted.

Did anyone see the cover of the latest Star? It said something about DIVORCE and tears for Katie and Tom. Very sad photo of Katie on the front cover. Said something about problems in Louisiana and on the movie set.

Think Tommie Boy is causing problems????

I saw that Saturday while checking out with my groceries...did not get a chance to read it...but...sheesh...that word divorce was HUGE across the cover of that magazine!!!!!

Tommie Boy is meddlesome!

Those pictures of Kat(i)e in the post by PIFFLE show her with black leggings on underneath that dress...those I believe are authentic Scientology leggings...

Inside Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes's Marriage
THURSDAY MAY 03, 2007 01:20 PM EDT


Cruise and Holmes

Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes share a life together that's shocking – shockingly normal, that is, considering they're one of the world's most famous couples.

"When you come over, the first thing [Katie] does is say, 'Are you hungry? Let me make you something,' " their friend, Internet mogul Sky Dayton, tells PEOPLE.

A favorite pastime is family movie night: "Tom and Katie will get in the kitchen and make this amazing popcorn with chocolate," Dayton says. "Suri is there playing. Kate feeds her a bottle and then Tom feeds her."

According to those in the couple's inner circle – which includes Will and Jada Pinkett Smith, Yahoo CEO Terry Semel, Mission: Impossible III director J.J. Abrams, Victoria and David Beckham and fellow members of the Church of Scientology such as Leah Remini and Dayton – the Cruises are nothing like the characters portrayed in headlines.

More on this story
Jada Pinkett Smith: Don't Mess with Katie
On a recent visit to the beach home of Yahoo's Semel and his wife Jane, "Tom organized a soccer game. All the kids were there. His mom was playing!" says Semel. "When they're surrounded by relatives and friends, it's home."

But that normalcy hasn't stopped the speculation that their marriage is on the rocks and that Holmes, 28, is controlled by Cruise, 44. Those who know the couple best are mystified by the rumors, PEOPLE reports in its new issue.

"We're shocked when we read that stuff," says Semel. "Kate is bright and has opinions." Adds Abrams: "She's hardly a shrinking violet."

"I think everybody has this image: Poor little Kate, she doesn't have the strength to take care of herself," says Pinkett Smith. "People don't know that behind all that grace is a tiger. ... People think Tom and the Church of Scientology got something on Kate? They don't. Kate is running her own show." (For our complete interview with Pinkett Smith about Cruise and Holmes, click here.)

King of Queens actress Remini agrees: "I really don't get it. They're married, they love each other and have a beautiful baby. They do 'weird' things like take care of their kid and go to baseball games."

Holmes's parents, Martin and Kathleen, are a part of that picture. Kathleen flew to L.A. for Suri's first birthday on April 18, and a source says both remain "very close" to their daughter, who has embraced her husband's religion. "She's very involved and it's her choice," says an acquaintance. "She spends a lot of time reading books and learning on her own."

As for another rumor making the rounds, that Cruise has tried to convert the Beckhams to Scientology, a Beckham family friend calls the story "rubbish" and adds, "Ages and ages ago Tom gave them a booklet, but that was it. There hasn't been anything more than that. It is never discussed."

I read the article, basically it said nothing..like most Star articles. The whole divorce thing was what might possibly happen somewhere down the line if Tom doesn't stop smothering her.

 

[Nancy]

I've seen two different reports on Suri's party. One she celebrated with her mom in Shreveport and the other that the entire family celebrated in Los Angeles at their home.

We are forgetting that Suri celebrated her birthday in January, so no wonder it was low-key in April. Allegedly.

Well sure she had her BIG birthday party in LA on the real date and the small private party on her alleged birthdate. Makes sense to me.
