3. I admit it- just boredom

It's not that anyone CARES- its just something silly to talk about

4. Other: Methinks the man doth protest too much.

If they make it to the altar, she'll be his cover wife. And God help her, if she bears him a child and develops postpartum depression.

Warning Katie: You will not be allowed to seek treatment for post partum

7. I couldnt give a shit about these 2 priviliged, marginally talented AH's.

There are much more pressing news stories that are being hidden behind this blanket.

Two Tom Cruise items have just broken that are going to enrage certain parties. Radar Online is reporting that Cruise made repeated calls and made certain overtures to Scarlett Johansson "weeks" before he began his relationship with Katie Holmes. (Johansson was reported by Upcoming Movies as being firm to costar with Cruise in Mission: Impossible 3 in July '04.) The item, which quotes Johansson directly and says her publicist didn't respond to calls or e-mails seeking confirmation, claims Johansson not only declined Cruise's offer of a Scientology-fortified relationship, but that Cruise then made similar relationship pitches to Kate Bosworth (22) and Lindsay Lohan (18) "before settling on the 26-year-old Holmes." The other item is from N.Y. Daily News gossip columnist Ben Widdicombe(i.e., "Gatecrasher"), and it says the following: "So here's what I'm hearing about that relationship. A source VERY close to the deal is saying there's a contract. It's worth $5 million. It's for five years. There will be no sex. The deal was sealed June 7. That's what I'm hearing." Hold on...only $5 million for five years? If I were repping Katie I would insist on at least $2.5 million per year (more?) with all kinds of extras and stock options and you-name-it.

Cruise Encounters of the Third kind
GET JOHANS OFF ME

Katie Holmes may have fallen for it, but Tom Cruise’s sci-fi seduction technique scared the bejeezus out of Scarlett Johansson, a source close to the actress says. Weeks before he began wooing his brainwashed bride-to-be, Cruise made repeated phone calls to the 19-year-old starlet—who was then set to co-star with him in Mission Impossible III—imploring her to meet him at the Scientology Celebrity Center in L.A. But when the actress finally agreed, the supposedly professional get-together took an oddly spiritual turn. “ took me into this room, which was stifling hot, and was showing me all kinds of info about joining the church,” Johansson told our source. “The whole time he didn’t even offer me a cookie!” Instead, he offered her dinner—and a glimpse into the Twilight Zone.

After two hours of proselytizing, our source says Cruise opened a door to reveal a second room full of upper-level Scientologists who had been waiting to dine with the pair, at which point the cool-headed ingenue politely excused herself. Soon after the meeting, Johansson dropped out of Mission Impossible III, reportedly due to scheduling conflicts. Asked about the incident, Johansson’s momager, Melanie Johansson, referred Radar to a publicist, who did not return calls or emails seeking comment. After striking out with Johansson, Cruise reportedly turned his attentions to 24-year-old Jessica Alba, 22-year-old Kate Bosworth, and 18-year-old Lindsay Lohan, before settling on the 26-year-old Holmes. As far we know, Cruise’s War of the Worlds co-star, Dakota Fanning, was never under consideration.

11. Other: I misread that as "Tom Hanks and Katie Couric"

You think I'm kidding, but I really thought that's what it said when I clicked on the link.
And I was like, "Isn't he already married?" You can see she's got "first love" written all over
her face. He's got "I've still got it" written all over his.
