Katie Holmes Is The ‘Slutty Pumpkin’ on ‘How I Met Your Mother’

Posted by @coltondaniel on September 22nd, 2011

Six seasons later, the Slutty Pumpkin of Ted’s dreams on CBS’ How I Met Your Mother has been unmasked, it is none other then Mrs. Tom Cruise herself: Katie Holmes, reports  NY Magazine.

On the show’s second season, Ted Moseby rifles through potential love interests like a trigger happy Romeo. One of the ladies was a seemingly fictional Slutty Pumpkin that Ted had met at a roof top Halloween party, but then lost touch with. Could this possibly be the long-awaited Mother? Unlikely, as he has been constantly referring to her as “Slutty” to his children.

Craig Thomas, the show’s co-creator, is psyched: “Katie is a lovely and talented actress, which is why we’ve saved for her perhaps the most classly named character in our show’s history,” he says, adding that the role was “literally six seasons in the making.”

Holmes has an interesting career spanning from Batman’s lover to First Lady Jackie Kennedy, from Dawson’s Creek to Adam Sandler’s wife.

This is going to be legendary.

Katie Holmes Lets Daughter Work For Her

Posted by Christian Allaire on May 11th, 2011

Katie Holmes is letting her 18-year-old stepdaughter, Isabella Cruise, apprentice at the actress’s fashion line called ‘Holmes & Yang,’ E Online reports.

Tom Cruise, Katie’s husband and Isabella’s father, shared his excitement for Isabella last week at a tribute dinner in his honor in L.A.

“Kate’s designing and [Isabella] is just working her way up,” Cruise said.

“She’s an artist, Bella, so it’s really great that she gets to work with it,” said Cruise. “She’s loving it.”

While Katie and son Connor were on hand to watch Tom receive the Humanitarian Award that night at the Beverly Wilshire, Bella was on her way back from the Big Apple to begin her apprenticeship.

Well, I’m jealous. Wouldn’t it be nice to be the child of a famous person who can help you with whatever career you want? I always thought little Suri would be the fashionista of the house, but looks like Isabella is well on her way to being a new designer. Good luck!

Critics Not Impressed by Katie’s Jackie O

Posted by Elisheva Baer on March 31st, 2011

While the eight-part mini-series has yet to premier on the ReelzChannel, critics  have given nothing to brag about when it comes to Katie Holmes’ part in the serious as Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy, reports Perez Hilton.

According to Perez, “the Hollywood Reportercritic wrote that the mini-series on the whole was “dull” and “unwatchable”, along with saying it was very hard to step away from the fact that you were watching Katie Holmes play a character.”

The critic went on to say, “You think, ‘That’s Katie Holmes.’ Or, ‘That’s Katie Holmes having the damndest time with Jackie’s accent.’ You are never transported somewhere else by the character because the real-life subjects are so distinctive in your mind.” Aw Katie, we still love you anyway!

It seems that the Jackie-accent was a common dislike among critics, as critic Ramin Setoodeh  from CBS’s Early Show said it ”doesn’t really have the gravitas to pull off the role…And the accent, it’s a little silly — for eight hours, it’s a long time to be, you know, watching her play this character in the way that she does.”

“Casting Holmes, whom Mitchell called a Jackie lookalike, ‘sort of added this tabloid element to the entire production,’ Setoodeh observed,” reads the CBS article. “’Every time Katie Holmes would come out in a Jackie Kennedy outfit, all the tabloids would run pictures of it. And then, it sort of became a little bit of a punch line. It looked like she was playing dress-up. And on-screen, she doesn’t really have — it’s a very difficult thing to play a real person, a real, living person that we all know. But she doesn’t really have the gravitas to pull off the role. And the accent, it’s a little silly — for eight hours, it’s a long time to be, you know, watching her play this character in the way that she does.’”

As well, Perez reports that Variety magazine noted she “looked the part,” but “that’s about all” she brought to the series. Don’t worry, Katie, maybe you’ll be able to redeem yourself among the critics in your upcoming movie, Jack and Jill. And if all else fails, just remember that not THAT many people read critic reviews…right?

Are you planning on watching Katie in the Kennedy mini-series this weekend?

Posh Spice Forbidden To Discuss Diets with Katie Holmes

Posted by Irene Ogrodnik on June 2nd, 2008

Tom Cruise does not want Victoria Beckham to discuss diets with his wife Katie Holmes.

The “Mission Impossible” actor has asked the former Spice Girls star to remain quiet about diet and food, because of concerns that Holmes was getting too thin. “Tom was firm but polite. He said that, although he understood Victoria thought she was only trying to help Katie to lose weight after Suri’s birth, he didn’t want her swapping any more diet tips with Katie in future,” said a source close to Cruise.

Beckham is known for her slender figure and is doing the best she can to refrain from discussing food whenever the she is with Holmes.

“She hasn’t mentioned food and diet once around Katie since then. And when they’ve been out for meals together, she’s made a real effort not to comment on what anyone’s eating, and to try to order more food herself – even if she doesn’t touch it once it’s on her plate.”

Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes Sue Baby Boutique

Posted by andPOP Staff on May 22nd, 2008

Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes have a “Petit” bone to pick.

According to reports, the couple is suing the owner of Petit Tresor, a baby boutique in L.A., for feeding tabloids lies about their spending habits on Suri.

The letter accuses the company of spreading rumours about the famous couple “for the purpose of enhancing [the store's] image and obtaining a commercial advantage.”

“Petite Tresor is trying to get publicity for themselves by telling the press that celebrities are shopping in their store when they’re not,” says a rep for Cruise.
