Brooke Shields hopes to have a joint birthday celebration for her daughter Grier and BFF TomKat's own lil' Suri. Back when their parents still loathed each other's existence, the babies were born right down the hall from each other at St. John's Medical Center on April 18th of last year. What better way to honor it all than with a big ol' birthday bash?
Now, there are about a million ways to make fun of what a Scientology birthday party might entail but I couldn't come up with anything funnier than the imagined scenario written up by my friends over at A Socialite's Life, where they envision Brooke showing up at the Cruise manse with streamers and wearing a party hat and Katie Holmes is all wan and pale and brainwashed.
Brooke: Hey! I'm here for the party!
Katie: What? Uh, I'm really not allowed to have people in...wow, it's really sunny out today. I miss the outdoors.
Brooke: Katie, it's me! Brooke Shields? Remember? Tom trashed me in the press and then apologized? Remember we said since our kids were born so close together that we would have a combined birthday party?
Katie: Listen, can you get a message to the outside for me? Please, you've got to listen to me. He'll be home any minute...
Brooke: I brought a cake, and some photographers, and oh, the baby. Wave hi, Grier!
Katie: *hangs head, listlessly*
We're all going to hell, aren't we? At the very least, the intergalactic warlord alien Xenu is probably going to be pissed at us.
