Katie Holmes Needs Some Lovin

trix — Fri, 29 May 2009 16:06:00 GMT

Katie Holmes is frustrated, yes, the kind of frustrated you're thinking.

We've all noticed Katie looking a little more miserable a time goes by. Whether it's because it's getting warmer or it's because she really wants to get some, I don't know.

A source is saying, " She finds it incredibly taxing to lead a life that revolves around Tom but that doesn't include enough intimate time with him to be genuinely fulfilling. She doesn't just want to go to red-carpet events with him. She always feels like she's competing for Tom's attention."

They must have read Nicole Kidman's interview in which she claimed those same exact feelings.

Maybe that's the real reason she's not pregnant. You usually can't pregnant without sex.

Katie Holmes Reprimanded in Public?

trix — Thu, 28 May 2009 16:32:00 GMT

Did Ivana Visnjic yell at Katie Holmes at the American Idol finale? If so, what on earth would she have been yelling about?

Ah, were back to the whole, Katie took Suri to the American Idol finale thing? Rumor has it that Katie Holmes left after Ivana Visnjic asked her what the heck she was doing there with Suri?

She said, "What are you doing? This is no environment to bring a baby! You're traumatizing this baby."

I'm sure Katie didn't think it was going to be so crazy and loud. It doesn't seem so crazy on TV, but she did leave right away. She probably should have taken some noise reducers for Suri, sometimes you just don't think of those kids of things.

Tom Cruise And Connor - Bonding

trix — Sat, 23 May 2009 16:35:00 GMT

Tom Cruise and Connor spent some quality time together at the Laker/Nuggets game.

Connor looks thrilled doesn't he?

Will he and Isabella go to Australia with Tom, Katie and Suri? Of course they would go to Australia after their mom Nicole moves to Tennessee.

It's Murphy's Law alright.

Oh my gosh, were you so excited to see Katie Holmes and Suri at the American Idol finale last night?

It seems like everyone was sent all atwitter when the pair walked in the door. I didn't see it, I was busy getting boys into bed and then watching NCIS.

So is this one of her steps to break away? Step 1. Get out of the house Step 2. Be seen out of the house.

Well she has step one and two down, let's see what's in store as step 3.

By the way, who won?

Katie Holmes Is Having Twins?

trix — Sat, 16 May 2009 14:31:00 GMT

Tom Cruise has done it again, he's caused a media frenzy over a rumor he started.

Oh, you would never know he started it, but in a round about way he did. It's one of those things, he wants a kid, but she's not ready, she wants a kid and now he's getting impatient.

Now the rumor is that they are going to turn to IVF to try for twins.

Huh? Aren't they both capable? Yeppers, they just want to make it easier on Katie, so she only has to get pregnant once.

YIKES! If this is true, it is like they are making a mockery of all those that have fertility problems. Like they are going to use it because it's convenient.

Ugh, that makes me sick.

Thoughts, opinions?

Natascha McElhone Is Doing it All Wrong.

trix — Fri, 15 May 2009 14:35:00 GMT

What the heck is going on in this picture? Did Natascha McElhone lose her mind?

Oh no, she's just filming a movie and the baby is not real.

She's filming a movie about an abusive mother, which seems to be the furthest thing from what she is.The filming of this movie has got to be difficult, it's based on Kevin Lewis's heartbreaking autobiography about his upbringing in Croydon, South London. She starves and beats her children, and at one point places her son's hand in a washing machine mangle.

Yikes!! Do we really need movies about abuse, when it's already out there everyday, uncontrolled? I can't watch movies in which kids get hurt. I even had to get up and walk out of the room when all the moms were shushing their babies in The Pianist, it was horrible.

Natascha McElhone Goes It Alone

trix — Fri, 08 May 2009 15:32:00 GMT

I think this is just the heartbreaking thing I've heard in a while. Natascha McElhone, in a recent interview, revealed the reason she decided to be alone during the birth of her third child.

"If Martin couldn’t be there, I couldn’t replace him with someone, as that would have felt very strange. I wanted to be on my own because that was the way it was going to be. I was going to be my baby’s only parent so I may as well get used to it."

The whole interview is just heartbreaking, I think I had tears in my eyes after the first couple of paragraphs. I really feel for her, but really I think that it's great that she talks about it and keeps the memory of her husband alive for her boys.

Who'll Get Pregnant First -Katie or Nicole?

trix — Mon, 04 May 2009 15:33:00 GMT

Nicole Kidman threw down the gauntlet to Katie Holmes.

She ever so slyly challenged Katie to provide another sibling for Connor and Isabella.

'I mean, my children are a huge part of my life, so we spend time in LA for Isabella and Connor [who live there with Cruise], but I don't have any kind of roots there.'

She talked about Connor and Isabella's relationship with Sunday, "'They're very adoring of her. They're used to having a little one around, because of Suri [Cruise's daughter with Katie Holmes]. Bella is very maternal. Connor would like one of us to have a boy. [Pauses.] Katie…? [Laughs].' "

In Hollywood it must be hard to get away from your ex's, since everyone's pretty much dated everyone else. There's always the pressure of looking good to spite your ex, that's hard...

We Never Said He Was A Bad Guy

trix — Mon, 04 May 2009 13:33:00 GMT

Tom Cruise is showing how much of nice guy he can be, he's extended hospitality to Katie's sister and her family.

He's invited Tammy and her two sons to stay at their Beverly Hills mansion. Whether or not she is going to take him up on the offer is not known, but the thought was really nice.

Tammy's husband died of a heart attack last month and an insider said, “Katie was so worried and upset for Tammy. They are really close, and Katie wanted to help any way she could.

“Tom came up with the idea of inviting Tammy and the boys to live with them. It meant Katie could keep a close watch on her sister and help her through this tough time.

“Tom really was a savior. He wants Katie to be happy, and he knew this would make it so much easier for her.”

"The fact that Tom stepped forward and offered to open his home to Tammy and her boys was a great comfort to Katie, her sister and the entire Holmes family at this difficult time.”

Well, we never said Tom Cruise was a bad guy, just odd.

John Ritter's Widow Recalls His Final Moments

Karen — Wed, 05 Mar 2008 21:32:00 GMT

When John Ritter died suddenly in 2003, his fans were stunned. During the trial this week (Ritter's family is suing for wrongful death), widow Amy Yasbeck testified about her last moments with Ritter. It's heartbreaking to read.

CNN reports: "Amy Yasbeck sometimes could barely speak through her tears as she recounted the last hours in which she was summoned to a hospital and told her husband was having a heart attack and needed an angiogram.

She said that Ritter, who was in a hospital bed, was "scared" and asked Dr. Joseph Lee, one of the two defendants in the lawsuit, if he could get a second opinion before he agreed to the procedure.

"Dr. Lee said, 'No, there's no time. You're in the middle of a heart attack,"' Yasbeck testified.

She said Lee asked Ritter to sign a consent form and read him its details.

Asked by her lawyer, Moses Lebovits, what happened next, Yasbeck broke into gasping sobs.

"I leaned down to John's ear and said, 'I know you're scared but you have to be brave and do this because these guys know what they're doing.' And he was brave for all the time I saw him," she said.

Yasbeck said that as Ritter was wheeled down a hall on a gurney he used sign language to say "I love you." She said she mouthed the same words back.

"He went around the corner and that's the last time I saw him," she said."

Crocodile Hunter Steve Irwin's Legacy Lives On In Widow's Book

Karen — Sat, 03 Nov 2007 15:54:00 GMT

Terri Irwin has painstakingly written a book about her late husband, the beloved Crocodile Hunter.

"I felt kind of compelled to do something so that people could sit down and understand Steve better and where he came from and what we stood for and what we tried to achieve," she told the Associated Press.

"I'd been so kind of self-absorbed with my own sadness that I hadn't really thought about everybody else ... so I thought maybe a book would help people to come to know the human side of Steve."

Steve Irwin died at age 44 Sept. 4, 2006, when a stingray's barbed tail punctured his chest and heart on Australia's Great Barrier Reef.

Terri began writing "Steve and Me: Life With the Crocodile Hunter," entitled "My Steve" last year while embarking on other wildlife projects with her kids.

"I spent months on end crying and crying and crying; remembering the hard times was hard and remembering the good times was hard," she said. "For me personally, it's that one day at a time feeling and I've chosen to continue as if Steve was still here," Irwin said. "I really believe if anyone thought of Steve as a hero, everything he lived for and believed in must continue."

Regarding the kid's grief, "They ebb and flow, just like I do," she said. Daughter Bindi is 9, and Robert turns 4 in December. The conversation about the kids triggered tears. She then began to cry. "Don't even pause, I do this all the time," she said through her tears."

"Bindi gets emotional regularly but not frequently and I'm really proud that they're coping. I think that's a point of pride that Steve was so good about - exposing them to the cycle of life in the zoo."

Regarding allegations of exploitation of Bindi:

"But I find that with Bindi's lack of fear of wildlife and lack of fear of public speaking, I have made an empowered woman who whatever choice she decides to make in life after she's 18, ... she's got the tools to do it."

Bindi won the Australian Nickelodeon Kid's Choice Award for Favorite Aussie last month. She certainly is taking over as the family wildlife advocate.

I've never lost anyone that close to me, so I can't imagine how difficult it would be to grieve, much less in the public eye and under such scrunity. I hope this book gave Terri some strength to get through this difficult time in her lives.
