The car driven by Tom in his film Minority Report is expected to fetch about $ 125,654 US dollars when it goes under hammer next month. The sleek red Lexus 2054 is just one of three models created for the movie and only has 38 miles on the odometer.

It is set to go on eBay sometime soon. For a gallery of photos including one of Tom in the car, just click here.

Katie Holmes on Motherhood: ‘I Love It’
Showing off her post-baby figure in a strapless champagne-colored Armani dress, Katie Holmes tells PEOPLE of motherhood: “I love it!”

Holmes left 10-month old Suri at home with her sister-in-law Saturday night to attend a Giorgio Armani Prive fashion show in Beverly Hills to celebrate the man who designed her wedding dress.
Suri, says Holmes, is “doing really, really well. She’s a beautiful little girl, and I feel so honored to be her mom, really.”
Their favorite mother-daughter activity? “A lot of walking around,” she says. “She loves just being outside right now.”

Soon, however, Mrs. Tom Cruise will be heading back to work. “I’m going to start a film in about a month and a half called Mad Money with Queen Latifah and Diane Keaton. I play a young girl who’s part of three women who rob the Federal Reserve.”
She adds with a smile, “It’s a comedy.”
Holmes says returning to work “will be another challenge but I have a wonderful, supportive husband and family, and it’s another project that were going to handle together and that’s part of the fun.”

While husband Tom was busy filming the night of the Oscar-eve fashion show, Holmes rubbed elbows with most of the nominees – including Cruise’s ex, Penelope Cruz, who posed for a photo with Holmes. (People)

Suri Cruise the star of the Oscars rehearsals
Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes’ baby girl had her first taste of the Oscars on 24th Feb when she accompanied her dad to Academy Awards rehearsals at the Kodak Theater in Hollywood.

Cruise stunned extras and stand-ins at the rehearsals when he appeared with his 10-month-old baby Suri in his arms and casually stated, “This is Suri… She wanted to come and check this out.” (CCTV.com)

Lansing Shocked By Cruise Presentation
Ex-Paramount Pictures head Sherry Lansing was shocked when Tom Cruise presented her with a humanitarian prize at the Academy Awards ceremony because they barely spoke just days earlier. The pair have worked together on film projects for years and Lansing was confused when Cruise seemed distant when they ran into each other just before the Oscars. Lansing received the Jean Hersholt Award for her humanitarian work and had no idea Cruise was presenting her with the honorary Oscar.

She explains, “I had seen him at an Oscar party a few days before, and he was sort of cold to me. I was a little hurt. But then he gave me the Oscar and he whispered, ‘This is an honour, I really wanted to do this, you know how much I love you, and at the party I couldn’t say anything!’ “I really love him. I’ve known Tom since he was 19 years old. I almost started to cry!” (FemaleFirst)

Not much else to reports, like Annie said already, so I’m just posting whatever comes up so that you guys have anything to read

It appears as if Nicole Kidman and Katie Holmes not only share a mutual respect for one another, but parenting advice as well. Holmes became stepmother to Kidman’s adopted children, Isabella and Conor, upon marrying Tom Cruise. The two actresses are bucking the trends of animosity and competition that typically result from this type of scenario, and amicably consult with one another on the upbringing of the children.

A source from the Post Chronicle said: “Katie was having lunch with friends in Beverly Hills when Isabella rang her to talk to her about a party she was going to.”
“Katie said, ‘That was Bella. She wants to wear a dress to a birthday party but I think it is much too grown up for her. But she says her mother approves. So I need to check with Nicole.’”
“Then after she’d made the call to Nicole she told her friends, ‘Nicole agrees with me. The dress is all wrong. The drama of it all! If I’ve learned one thing about teenagers, it’s that little things mean a lot.’ “

Katie, who gave birth to her daughter, Suri, 9 months age, is keen to be a good mother to Isabella, 14, and 12-year-old Conor, and hopes to earn their love and respect herself.

An insider told Hello magazine: “She didn’t want the children to respect her only because Tom told them to, but rather because they wanted to.”
“Nicole is actually a big fan of Katie’s. She thinks Katie is doing an amazing job of stepping up to the plate.”
“Katie’s always there for Isabella and Connor, as she is with the new baby.”

It is quite pleasant hearing that Nicole and Katie have worked everything out so nicely. It surely will do wonders for the children as they continue to grow older! (Source: Celebrity-gossip.net)

Hi everyone. Things have been slow lately on the TC World, and I need time off from the Internet

Well, it’s been confirmed Tom will be doing a movie with Ben Stiller (see news below), and he will be presenting at the Oscars (which now is a good reason for me to watch!)

“Beverly Hills, CA — Tom Cruise will be a presenter for the 79th Academy Awards, telecast producer Laura Ziskin announced today.

Cruise has twice been nominated in the Actor in a Leading Role category, for “Born on the Fourth of July” in 1989 and for “Jerry Maguire” in 1996. In 1999, he was nominated for his supporting performance in “Magnolia.”

It only took 80 years, but teenage super-sleuths Frank and Joe Hardy have finally grown up. And apparently it was worth the wait, at least for Hollywood, because they grew into Ben Stiller and Tom Cruise.

The box office golden boys have been tapped to play the now-adult brothers in the action comedy The Hardy Men, a reworking of the classic detective series The Hardy Boys, which kicked off in 1927 with The Tower Treasure.

Per Variety, The Hardy Men will feature the siblings, once inseparable but now estranged, reuniting to solve one last case. No word on whether they’ll still go by Frank and Joe or if the screenplay will call for more modern monikers.

Cruise and Stiller have reportedly been exchanging plot ideas with Night at the Museum director Shawn Levy, who will helm the project for 20th Century Fox.

Meanwhile, the longtime pals—ever since Stiller nailed his first Cruise impression during his formative years on The Ben Stiller Show—are also contemplating teaming up for the making-of-a-movie-within-a-movie comedy Tropic Thunder, which Stiller will direct for DreamWorks. (Interestingly, Paramount would distribute the film, placing Cruise back in the industry arena with best bud Sumner Redstone.)

The pair also teamed up in 2000 for the short-form spoof Mission: Improbable, in which Cruise played himself and Stiller played a stuntman subbing for the heartthrob on the set of Mission: Impossible 2.

Fox is aiming to start production on The Hardy Men in 2008.

Although this will be the Hardys’ first trip to the multiplex, the boys are no strangers to the small screen.

Before the era of Britney, Justin and Christina, Tim Considine and Tommy Kirk portrayed the Hardy brothers on the iconic Mickey Mouse Club from 1956-57. Then, Parker Stevenson and Shaun Cassidy wielded the flashlights in the ABC primetime series The Hardy Boys/Nancy Drew Mysteries, costarring Pamela Sue Martin as the titian-haired heroine, which ran from 1977-79.

There was also a Hardy Boys Saturday-morning cartoon that premiered in 1969 and a 13-episode syndicated series that aired in Canada in 1995.

But first thing’s first. Stiller has gone to bat again for the Farrelly brothers in The Seven Day Itch, due in theaters Oct. 5, while Cruise is set to star in the Robert Redford-directed Lions for Lambs, the first film in the pipeline for Cruise and production partner Paula Wagner’s revamped United Artists nameplate. Redford will also costar in the intersecting-lives drama, along with Meryl Streep and Derek Luke.”

FAIRING WELL: Suri Cruise proved to be a bankable cover subject for Vanity Fair. The October issue featuring the first published photos of Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes’ dark-haired offspring sold 713,776 newsstand copies, according to figures reported to the Audit Bureau of Circulations. The issue was the bestseller of 2006, and came in just behind Vanity Fair’s best-selling issue in the second half of last year — the September 2005 issue featuring Jennifer Aniston sold 738,929 single copies. Suri’s appeal also crossed over to the Internet: Vanityfair.com drew 4.3 million page views and 1.9 million unique visitors to its Web site the day after the photos were posted. The site usually draws about 60,000 page views and 20,000 uniques on an average day. The October issue also helped Vanity Fair post its third consecutive record-breaking half in terms of total circulation. For the second half of last year, total paid and verified circulation grew 2.6 percent, to 1,239,850, the highest ever, and its average single-copy sales remained flat at 445,635. —

Personally I can really imagine what Tom would say if he heard this… or what he would say Redstone could do… yup, exactly that! with what he said recently!

Contactmusic.com reports:

Viacom boss SUMNER REDSTONE has offered an olive branch to TOM CRUISE – despite dumping the actor from his Paramount-branded studios six months ago (AUG06). Cruise was sacked from the company after concerns were raised about his outspoken beliefs and sofa-jumping antics on THE OPRAH WINFREY SHOW last year (06), but Redstone admits he would be willing to work with the star again in the future. He says, “We had to do the best thing for Viacom. The company was disturbed by Tom’s then behaviour, which has now changed. “I would probably work with Tom in the future but not immediately.”
