While I want to believe Page Six’s Christina Hendricks story with every fiber of my being, I’m kind of thinking that Page Six is pulling this Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman story out of their ass. According to sources, at the post-Globes CAA party, Tom and Nicole totally avoided each other like they were in friggin’ high school. Ugh.
Tom Cruise and ex-wife Nicole Kidman kept a safe distance from each other as they partied at the same Golden Globes bash. Cruise and wife Katie Holmes attended the Creative Artists Agency party at the Sunset Tower Hotel following the awards. Meanwhile, Kidman, who divorced Cruise in 2001, was across the intimate room with husband Keith Urban.
A spy said, “There was no drama, but nobody saw them have a conversation, either. Tom and Nicole stayed apart all night, but they must have seen each other. Everybody was mingling, but they kept their distance.”
Security was so tight that many CAA clients weren’t allowed in — even director David O. Russell had to wait in his car after being told he wasn’t on the list. Those who got in included Robert De Niro, Jane Fonda, Christina Aguilera, Anne Hathaway, Julianne Moore, Scarlett Johansson, Halle Berry, Oliver Stone, John Legend, Demi Moore and Jake Gyllenhaal.

I doubt this just because I doubt Tom Cruise was in town for the Globes – I think he’s still filming Mission Impossible in Canada, last I heard. Considering he wasn’t nominated for anything and he didn’t present anything at the Globes, why would he fly into LA just for a CAA party? But I do believe that Nicole and Keith were at the CAA party – just the ticket after a three-hour awards ceremony. You want to kick back and schmooze and have a few drinks and not be with your three-week-old newborn baby. Look, I get why Nicole went – she was nominated, after all. But Keith just had to come with her? Why? Because his job is holding her hand in front of cameras, not bonding with their new baby that they just had to have and announce conveniently before the Oscar nominations.
UPDATE: Okay, I’ve just been told that Tom was in town and was at the CAA party. Guess this story is pretty true, and Tom and Nicole really can’t even say hello to each other. Gawd.
In other “awkward, CAA” news, Life & Style is reporting that Scarlett Johansson and Sandra Bullock ran into each other at the same CAA party. Ooh, they got a confirmation from Bullock’s rep too:
As if wearing strikingly similar gowns to the Golden Globes weren’t awkward enough, Sandra Bullock and Scarlett Johansson came face-to-face for the first time since Sandra’s very public New Year’s Eve date with Scarlett’s soon-to-be-ex Ryan Reynolds. Sandra’s rep confirms to Life & Style that the ladies saw each other at a CAA-sponsored award show after party on Jan. 16 in LA.
The last time Scarlett and Sandra were spotted sharing the red carpet was at the 2010 MTV Movie Awards, where they shared a jaw-dropping kiss on stage. But that was before they shared a man.
“Scarlett and Sandra had dinner,” an insider tells Life & Style of the actresses’ run-in on Jan. 16. “They’ve always gotten along so Sandra explained exactly how she felt about the whole Ryan situation. She didn’t want anything to get in the way of their friendship. There is no awkwardness between Sandra and Scarlett.”
[From Life & Style]
Sandra Bullock: Always A Girlfriend First. That’s the message. And I’ll buy it, too.

I saw video footage of Cruise and Holmes walking into the CAA party, so for whatever reason they were in fact there.
Tom was indeed in L.A. over the weekend and was spotted at some parties with Katie. Most movie sets close down on the days of awards shows. Not to mention the fact that it was Tom and Nicole’s son’s birthday yesterday, so he was probably in town for that.
Having said that, this story seems exaggerated. They probably didn’t talk, but they probably weren’t purposely “ignoring” each other. They’ve been divorced for 10 years. Their children are pretty much grown. What’s there to talk about?
It’s interesting that a picture of Sandra Bullock was included in this post, where you’re again bashing Nicole and Keith for taking a few hours away from their baby, since Sandra and her then-husband did the same thing. No one found that horrifying.
And maybe you’re not a parent, so you don’t realize this, but it’s perfectly normal for parents of newborns to take a few hours away from the baby. It’s important for parents to still have some alone time as a couple, and to focus on things other than just the baby. The only couples I know who never took any time away from their babies at this point were people who have no family around and/or can’t afford a babysitter.
Also, three-week-olds spend most of their time sleeping. I doubt that Faith was even aware that her parents were gone.
CAA must throw some wild parties…don’t forget the Julieanne Hough/Christina Aguilera “feud” too.
I don’t buy this b/c of the detail that David O. Russell wasn’t on the list. He was nominated for directing The Fighter & he wasn’t on the guest list? So I don’t believe Cruise was even there. That said, if he was there, I totally believe they’d avoid each other. That’s some serious bad blood there.
I don’t see why a couple can’t go out for an important night out if their newborn is being well cared for. That seems like a cheap shot.
sheesh…Kidman actually used to be pretty.
now she’s got witchy eyebrows and a wormy lip.
“It’s interesting that a picture of Sandra Bullock was included in this post”
perhaps because there’s a story about Bullock in this same post?
Wait, this woman has all but forgotten that she adopted two kids with her ex and we are shocked she left a probably sleeping and unaware 3 week old for a party – nope, seems about right.
@ Grace: true, but Nicole didn’t carry this baby, so from what are she and Keith taking time off?
Yes, SB did the exact same thing last year (as I mentioned in another comment on a previous story), yet she wasn’t vilified. Whatever. As I also mentioned, I like all 3 of them; don’t judge any of them; and I’m a parent, as well.
I totally buy that NK wouldn’t speak to TC: he’s brainwashed their mutual children into becoming involved in his pseudo “religion;” and I would be shocked to learn there WASN’T something in their divorce “agreement” that the kids had to be raised as Scientologists, at least until the age where they could “decide” for themselves to follow Scientology. Remember, TC was the bigger star when all this shite went down, and I doubt NC had much leverage, especially considering his financial power v. hers at the time.
I don’t have children (yet), but I have a ton od nieces and nephews. Nothing wrong with parents taking a night off. I used to help my sister watch her newborn daughter all the time when she went back to work. All my baby niece did was poop and sleep. Wasn’t a big deal.
Give them a break already. So they went out for an evening without the new baby. How many new parents do that? Lots
Tom and Katie were there. Vid at X17 – Not posting link but you can see both of them at 2:40.
co-sign Grace.
Here’s another couple you didn’t bash when both parents left the baby for the evening:
http://www.celebitchy.com/131196/matt_damon_his_poor_wife_luciana_six_weeks_after_she_gave_birth/
So apparently it’s wrong to leave a three-week-old for a few hours but not a six-week-old.
So Tom Thumb and Zombie Kate are refusing to go to the Oscars because Hathaway is HOSTING, but go to the same intimate party?
So Sandy is reassuring Scarjo that she isn’t boning Ryan…yet. Mmmm k.
Nicole is still upset that she didnt know that she was his beard..she thought she was in love
god-sandra’s hair is SO awful in that picture….is that a wig?
i cannot get past that….
and who cares if tom and nicole didn’t talk-meh. their choice. no drama IMO
ditto for the ‘omg! they went out w/o the baby!’ comment. Who cares? This is not gossip, and in fact it certainly is not neglecting their child.
Geesh-many of us who are parents, also know that 3 weeks is about the mark when family comes to town and/or offers to watch the baby so you can get some time out….i’m glad they announced it now, instead of earlier-precisely so they would not be bombarded right away w/paps, stories, etc.
Plus, it’s now in the middle of the awards hoopla-which hopefully makes their baby less of a news story-which I’m sure they planned, for this reason alone I’d buy it….
Why would you want to hang around with your ex? Geesh.. I am not sure I would if he had his wife/friends/cult members hanging out.
Yeah, I won’t bash her for going out. I’m a mom and a few hours away does not hurt the baby and moms need a break.
As for the rest, it’s probably bs, but I don’t blame her for not talking to him, if it is true. I think Tom and his insane ‘church’ are the reason for the separation between Nicole and her kids. Unforgiveable and disgusting.
Well, I was encouraged to get out when my wee’in was born. And I did.
There was not an ounce of guilt about it either. More a feeling of
WOOHOOO I’M FREE……. I”M FREE…..
Fine. It’s ALL perfectly normal. It’s all perfectly fine to pay some huge amount so that someone can carry this baby that you need so, so much, and then when the baby is born, you and your husband spend an entire weekend partying and attending events. Not just going to the Globes, but to the Critics Choice, and the all of the after-parties. That’s what ALWAYS strikes me about Nicole Kidman. How normal she is. Just a normal mother of two. Because she consistently forgets about her first two children. Because she’s so normal.
Nicole and Keith seem like to be involved and loving parents with Sunday. I mean, as much as one can tell from photos, etc. I think it’s ridiculous to be criticizing them for taking one weekend away to attend the GOlden Globes. Nicole may have been contractually obligated to attend due to promo work for Rabbit Hole. She may have attended because it’s her CAREER and she has worked hard to achieve the level of success she is at. Moms who work sometimes have to work (shocker). I doubt a 3 week old baby suffered much from having her parents away for one weekend. I’m sure it was difficult for Nicole and Keith to be away from the new baby.
Wait, who the f cares if Nicole and Tom didn’t talk? So what? I don’t want to run into my exes either, and Tom’s a nutbag. Why is that news?
As for the whole surrogacy…I missed yesterday’s post…holy crap!!!!!! That is just crazy. Good for them. And I’m not gonna hate on her for taking some time out for herself and Keith…I’m turning 30 2 weeks after this next baby is born. And I will be seen “out” in some capacity.
I also think that Sandy and ScarJo are absolutely fine with eachother, and would never bicker over a boob like Ryan.
If she weren’t nominated and was just going to party, that would be one thing, but she WAS nominated, her career could use the boost, and I don’t see a problem with them having a night out here and there.
Maybe when they planned the surrogacy, she didn’t expect to be nominated/attending award shows? Who knows. Also don’t get the negativity towards her using a surrogate, we don’t know their personal/medical reasons, nor should we.
Also not surprised she and Tom didn’t talk, it didn’t exactly end well and I’m in the camp that he and his “church” are what have separated Nicole and the older children, if she was ever allowed to be a parent to them at all. It’s a shame, but I think there is some seriously twisted stuff that goes down there.
@Praise St. Angie: I realize that a picture of Sandra Bullock was included because part of the article was about her. I meant that it’s interesting that this article is about two people who both did the same thing, and one got bashed for it and the other didn’t.
@K: Your comment makes no sense. If Nicole had given birth then going out for the evening would not have given her a break from the physical recover process. She would still only be getting a break from the babycare aspect of things.
And I didn’t give birth to any of my children, does that mean that I don’t get to take a break from parenting now and then? I guess only those who have given birth have a right to get tired, or need a break, or be overwhelmed and need a chance to recharge for a few hours.
i wonder if sandra and nicole still talk. no reason they wouldn’t i just remember really liking them together in practical magic. of course that was when nicole was pretty and nice and didn’t have a stick up her ass.
“Also not surprised she and Tom didn’t talk, it didn’t exactly end well and I’m in the camp that he and his “church” are what have separated Nicole and the older children, if she was ever allowed to be a parent to them at all. It’s a shame, but I think there is some seriously twisted stuff that goes down there.”
agreed. seriously creepy something going on there.
I havent talked to my x-wife since 2003.True we didnt have any kids but if i saw her at a party i would go out of my way to avoid talking to her….bitch! 😉
@ Lovely: I couldn’t agree more!
i don’t have kids but it seems to me that new parents would get out every chance they get. it’s the people who never, ever leave their kids or drag them everywhere that confuse me. i know a couple like that (two boys, 5 and 7) and i never see them without the kids, ever. they don’t leave them with sitters except on their anniversary.
Funny how Nic always goes for the shrimps. No offense, but what’s up with that?
Just a reminder, Nicole-lunatics: If you post under multiple names, your ass will be banned. You will also be banned if you are abusive to me or to other commenters, just FYI. Everybody is allowed to a difference of opinion.
I wouldn’t want to talk to my ex and his wife either, if I didn’t have to. Sometimes a lifetime isn’t enough time to heal old wounds.
I agree with @Grace. Sandra Bullock wasnt criticised for leaving her baby alone during award shows last year. I feel like your just looking for any reason to hate on Nicole.
Im surprised tom cruise showed up. Why? and did he know about ricky gervais’ joke? Awkward.
Seriously, what do you expect Nicole to say?
“Oh hi Tom, it’s been awhile since your cult made you divorce me and leave the children. Having a nice time with your femmebot tonight?”
Just because she didn’t carry this baby herself doesn’t mean she needs to work harder on bonding with her to compensate that. This baby isn’t an accident, they’ve wanted her, they’ve planned her, they’ve been expecting her for the same 9 months and no doubt have been involved in everything during pregnancy and birth.
Moms are allowed to go out with newborns at home, no matter the way they’ve become moms.
And bringing her estranged adopted kids as an argument isn’t fair, she’d lost them to a dangerous cult where her ex-husband is a prominent member. I’m sure there was nothing she could do except die trying.
He didn’t talk to her because he had no idea who she was since her face is so jacked up!
I don’t get it. Plenty of celebrities go to movie premieres/awards shows and take time away from their newborn babies. Nicole isn’t the first, nor is she the last. As plenty of people have pointed out, Sandra Bullock did the same thing last year when she was promoting the Blind Side (and her ex-husband was with her at the Oscars though he had “no business being there” since he is not an actor, just like Keith is not an actor either). We know you don’t like Nicole, but picking on her for this reason? Kind of lame.
And adding to the pool of women who left their newborns at home and weren’t villified – Heidy Klum famously returned to the runway just 6 weeks after giving birth to one of her babies and everyone was praising her as far as I can remember.
There is def a bias there against Nicole in these “OMG! She left her newborn!” comments. Or there was a positive bias toward all those other women whom you didn’t bash for doing the same thing.
I don’t think going out for a night is a big deal-even with a 3 week old. That said-the baby is in TN, and they’re in LA for the entire weekend-I think that’s weird.
Sounds totally true — I bet they’ve never said A WORD to each other — except through attorneys — since the divorce. CAA didn’t let David O’Russell into the party!!! He is a legendary dick, but very talented director. Long memories and deep grudges at CAA, I guess. Inner’esin.
Happymom How do know the baby is in TN? on another topic my local newspaper reports that NK’s second daughter’s name is Faith. Sunday is her second daughter, Faith is her 3rd daughter. Bella is her first daughter.
The last Golden Globes party they were all at they all did stop and speak to each other for a while and there was a photo. I think it was Golden Globes. So this is highly doubtful. She just spoke highly of Tom saying he was doing a good job raising the older children.
I can understand those two not liking each other for whatever reasons they may have but what I don’t get is how a mother can let all contact with her children go and not make a fuss to be able to see them. As much as I dislike Tom Cruise and his weird religion crap, at least he is a parent that cared what happened to those kids during the divorce. It seems like Nicole gave up and that has to be painful for the kids to watch.
OK.
A woman carries a baby for nine months. It hears her heartbeat every day. It goes through the stress of birth. No more heartbeat. No breastfeeding. There’s a little sibling at home who is meeting her new sister, but hasn’t had nine months to get used to it.. it’s a miracle! Nicole is just thrilled with this ‘second’ baby…and, for work-related reasons, feels she has to attend the GGs…because none of us would admire her for excusing herself from this event?
Alright, maybe she wanted a night out. Are we assuming Nicole she hasn’t had one of those because she doesn’t have friends anywhere else than on the red carpet?
Hmmm, so perhaps it wasn’t for social reasons then…
In addtion to all of that, I can’t understand Nicole’s decision to have a baby in this manner. She has two adopted children already therefore let us hope she has nothing against adoption. She has been lucky enough to meet someone, and have a third child, together. So why not adopt again?
At the end of the day, a huge problem with celebrity is distance from reality. The inflated sense of entitlement that we see in kids like Lindsay. Being surrounded by sycophants. Having ones whims catered to. Having ones face and body changed because you can’t see how weird you look in the mirror. So maybe, Nicole had her baby in this manner because it is preserving her figure. And maybe she has a nanny to look after it at night time because she needs her beauty sleep. And maybe Elton John and David Furnish really do lodge their child in an adjoining apartment.
But not all celebrities compromise their children. Do you know what Colin Firth’s kids look like? De Niro’s?
By the way, someone has just picked up on the fact that Adam Clayton, the bass player in U2, one of the world’s biggest bands, had a baby with his partner (no one knows her name).
A year ago.
No Hello magazine covers with huge donations to charity. No gossip.
So Nicole, Octomom,White Oprah, Angelina?
These kids are extending your 15 minutes.
But it isn’t doing them any good at all.
Kidman seems like a headcase, true, but jeebus Kaiser, this post is one click from being submitted to STFU Parents.
As for not talking to Cruise – I wouldn’t blame them; I’m happiest when there’s an ocean between myself and himself and I don’t even know him!
Her star power isn’t as high as it was 5 years ago so she probably has to do more schmoosing to keep the work coming in. Besides, the child will have years ahead of her yet wondering why her mommy can’t frown and why her daddy’s hair seems to be made from Barbie doll wigs.
Kaiser: Apparently I’m the only one, but I agree with you on the “They left their baby at home to party” comments. It’s not like she and Keith threw on some jeans and mascara and went to a nice restaurant in town for a couple hours. I think the baby was in Nashville, so she was 3 time zones away for at least an entire weekend. And even if the baby was in LA, it still wasn’t just a ‘couple hours’. It takes these women literally hours to get ready, hours at the ceremony, hours at a party, then multiply that because they were at both the Critic’s Choice and Golden Globes…She may feel the need to be at the actual ceremonies for her career, but I doubt the hours of afterparties are necessary for an A-list actress. If I remember correctly, Sandra Bullock didn’t attend all the after parties, so maybe that contributes to what everyone is claiming is bias.
I had a baby 5 weeks ago, and except for 1hr at a xmas party across the street I haven’t been away from Peanut for longer than it takes to shower. Part of that is because I’m breastfeeding, but mostly because I have no desire to be away! They grow so fast, and are so cute and precious that I don’t want to miss a minute. Every Friday nite I spend a little extra time getting prettied up then we pack her up and take her out to dinner with us. Bonding early on is mega important for all parents–moms AND dads–whether you actually carried the baby or not.
@Kaiser You know I love you, and you are awesome. But I also don’t get how Nicole is different from Matt Damon, Sandra Bullock (who did the EXACT same thing last year with a newly adopted infant at home) Sarah Jessica who did the same thing-I honestly have a hard time thinking of a celebrity that doesn’t do that during award season. If one gets called out, they all should. It’s a weird double standard that I don’t think is fair, just as I don’t think calling people who point that out as ‘nicole-lunatics’ is fair.
But that’s just me, I usually just skim over the Nicole posts since I don’t agree with you. Posters who are calling you mean things suck and should be flogged. Now let’s get back to bashing Leann 😀
Yeah, gotta co-sign with everyone, stop being so harsh.
Like Lovely said, the voting happened on the 14th, so her announcement has no affect on the outcome of the Oscars.
And Matt Damon and his wife did the same thing, as did Sandra Bullock. I mean, it’s their job, their career, mom’s do the same thing everywhere. My mom went back to work two weeks after my little sister was born and she was a nurse who worked back-to-back 12-hour shifts.
And bringing her estranged adopted kids as an argument isn’t fair, she’d lost them to a dangerous cult where her ex-husband is a prominent member. I’m sure there was nothing she could do except die trying.
*********
I agree and it isn’t ‘giving up’ or not caring about her kids. They are 16 and 18 and have been brainwashed by their lunatic father and his creepy cult for YEARS. She has to let it go and hope at least one of them will realize the truth and leave. I also totally believe the stories of ex Scientologists who say that Tom has recordings of Nicole’s sessions and threatened to release them.
The whole thing is sick and may be why Katie stays and allows herself to be babysat by a cult member every time she leaves her house, even to go to the gym! She’s probably scared Tom will do the same to her with Suri and he would.
Thank you, Scarlet Vixen.
As I already said in an above comment, if you think that Nicole is completely normal and this situation is completely fine, good for you. I don’t.
Re: Matt Damon & Luciana – Maybe it is a double standard. Maybe Lucy & Matt go to his premieres and rush back home to spend time with the new baby. Maybe they didn’t leave their newborn in another city for three days.
Re: Sandra – I see this point, and I wondered about it too at the time, but I think it’s important to remember WHEN Sandra announced her adoption too. After the awards season, and after her split from Jesse.
Re: Isabella and Connor. Nicole talks about Sunday like she’s her first child all the time. It genuinely disturbs me.
Re: Not talking to Tom. They have two children together, and they can’t even say hello to each other? Just in passing? If they can’t, they are both insanely immature.
Edit: Once again, feel free to have a difference of opinion. I enjoy Nicole because I think she’s profoundly strange, and just as weird as her ex, Tom. Many of you disagree. That is fine. Just don’t be abusive, and don’t post under multiple names so you can run around agreeing with yourself.
Two things:
1. If she were going out clubbing, partying just to party, one could question their judgment, but she’s an actress and most actresses of her caliber sign contracts that require them to be present at awards shows in order to promote their films; especially if nominated. It seems like glitz and glam for us but for her it’s work. I went back to work 2 weeks after my first child was born. I got a lot of crap for it but you know what? Those people complaining weren’t going to pay my rent or buy diapers so they could shove it.
2. I know someone whose entire family is deeply involved in the C0$. She was a member as well until she decided she wanted out. Her family disowned her, kicked her out of the house, changed their phone numbers, and eventually moved away. She wasn’t even 16.
It’s easy to judge when sitting on the outside without ever knowing what that situation is like. I saw her alienation first hand and what it did to her. Co$ can ruin your life and they can end it. Nicole knows this – anyone who’s ever been involved with the Co$ knows this – and she made a choice that many in her position would have made because it’s the safest for the children as well as themselves.
Kaiser: I so agree with you and that everyone has its own opininon. Just write stuff for us to read. We love it. By the way I heard that Nicole wanted to annouce the arrival of the daughter, Faith, on the day Connor was born 17th or 18th of January just to send the message to Tom and family “Here I have a new daughter” but I read somewhere that TMZ was gonna publish before she announced so she she and Keith made the annoucement right away. Tell me that Nicole is not crazy if she really planned it like this!! This woman is still not over Tom and the way he dumped her and wants to gets revenge againts him in trashy ways. The marriage to Keith was just a plan that worked out for her but same plan did not work with others before.
I wouldnt blame Nicole for not wanting to speak to Tom. Im sure she wants to stay as far away as possible after being married to him.
# 48 (sorry, can’t read you name, but I think it might be lulu or lula):
If I’m not mistaken, most adoption agencies have a rule that a person with past drug problems has to have been sober for at least five years before adopting. Plus, I would imagine most birth Mom’s would be reluctant to place their child with someone who has Keith’s past drug problems. So it doesn’t surprise me that they chose to adopt.
Not that it matters anyway, since it’s no one’s business but their own which way they choose to grow their family.
So sad, Nicole signed her life/kids away to Tom in order to get super famous. Im sure the deal was he puts her in a few movies and if they divorce or she leaves scientology then he gets the kids. And that is exactly what happened. Maybe she was young & didnt realize what she was doing (sound familar Katie)? Its pathetic she has no relationship w her 2 adopted kids with Tom. You dont adopt children to then not be in their lives!
That is so selfish and ego centric of him to keep them from having relationship w her because she is not a scientologist. Tom is a man child who has to get his way regardless of who it hurts (the 2 adopted kids).
How can scientology be good if one family member doesnt practice so they tell you to alienate them and that you cant have relationship w them? HELLO that is a cult!
Tom & other scientologists would say this isnt true but it is and we all know it. Many have spoken about how they were alienated from their spouses, kids etc after turning away from scientology. They highly discourage relationships of any kind, friendships, spouses, etc with non scientlologists.
@Lovely: let me tell you that I never was and never will be a crazy fan of a cocaine and alchohol abuser. Period. By the way there is nothing masculine about him as well, so he is not in my list darling. Is he humble and a much better person than Nicole from what I read and see? Absolutely. But that does not make me be crazy for him.
I’m indifferent to Nicole as an actress (she just stopped being interesting on screen for me a few years ago) but I’m glad she got away from the CoScrazy and has what genuinely seems to me like a much happier life with KU. I also think she had to make all sorts of compromises when she left Cruise, ones that affected her ongoing relationship with Bella and Conor.
On a more interesting note, I wonder if anyone asked Tom at the party if he found Ricky G’s little CoS joke funny? Maybe that’s why Nicole avoided him… because she didn’t trust herself not to fall about laughing? 😉
new parents can’t get a night off? i love that once people have kids they don’t have the right to take care of themselves-pure shit in my opinion. you’re showing your kids how to manage life-you manage well my taking care of yourself, talking with grownups, going on a date with your husband-show your kids that and they will see that’s how to live. you have kids? you never go out?
Whoa-never realized how creepy Tom and Nic looked together, and how much shorter Tom Cruise is (or looks) than Keith Urban standing next to Nicole.
If true, then I agree with Tom, I wouldn’t talk to any woman who abandon her/our kids.
Kaiser maybe you don’t know (or you don’t remember) that Scientolo-bots aren’t ALLOWED to speak to members of their families who rejected their faith… that is to say, Bella and Connor have to choose between dad and mom – and it isn’t mom’s fault, because she is not the Scientolobot, Tom is.
Leave Nicole alone!
We have no idea if the kids traveled with them and even if they didn’t, she has obligations and since she didn’t pop the kid out, no excuse to not make an appearance…that is after all her job.
Also, stinking rich people hire baby nurses and fly private. LA is not far from Nashville. I bet she flew back by early morning….
Heesh!
Oh my. I go away on business for three or four days and the celebrity world goes to hell in a handbasket! On this however, I’m with Kaiser- Nicole Kidamn is a freak of nature. Everything she’s done since hooking up with Tom Cruise has been calculated and creepy. I haven’t read all the posts about surrogate baby #2 yet, but my suspicion is that Nicole just didn’t have it in her to wear the pillow again, and the fact that she held off announcing surrogate baby#2 until the day after the Golden Globes is hideously embarrassing- was she hoping to add it to the publicity of “her win”? Too bad about that whole Natalie Portman baby thing Nicole- she beat you at your own game! I think Nicole Kidman is a “mom” when it suits her, and unfortunately her two eldest children will probably back me up on that opinion.
Life & Style is reporting that Scarlett Johansson and Sandra Bullock ran into each other at the same CAA party.
**********
Yeah, I posted about them being seen talking after the Globes yesterday. I do have my sources 😀
And Nicole and Keith’s choices are Nicole and Keith’s choices and we ALL have the right to our opinion on whether it was right, wrong, normal, abnormal, whatever. As for Connor and Isabella – I’ve always had a sneaking suspicion that Tom actually adopted them on his own and that Nicole never really was a “mother” to them. I think their mother has always been the COS. When Tom and Nicole divorced, I think she had no legal claim to them. Just my weird thinking and some of the rumors I’ve heard around.
My baby is 4 weeks old today and I wouldn’t leave her for any frivolous reason yet. I barely put her down. Part of this is because I will have to go back to work soon and the other part is they grow so fast you don’t want to miss a thing. I can’t believe someone would already need a night off from their newborn so soon.
But, I am not judging these hollywood people because aren’t these award shows part of their job? If so I let them off the hook.
I’d be more inclined to leave my fourth 3 week old baby at home with six nannies than I would my first. Especially to go to a freakin’ awards-show after-party in Beverly Hills. Especially since I live in TN, not exactly party-central. BTW, since it was apparently Connor’s birthday, NK probably already had the big yak with Tom earlier in the day. I sure hope Connor and Bella don’t read these blogs, its all WILD SPECULATION kiddos.
@Marjalane and Kaiser: ITA with you.
No I’m not a Nicole/Keith hater, I’m just kind of indifferent when it comes to them. I don’t buy the syrupy sweet act that they do either, then again I don’t normally buy that act from any celeb.
@Liana: I could totally buy that she wasn’t really their ‘mother’. That whole marriage and adoption was weird IMO.
@Mairead re: STFU Parents. Love that site it’s hilarious.
I don’t have kids, although I have three adorable nephews and a niece but I can’t imagine being away from a newborn for a whole weekend and in a different state no less. I also don’t think Matt Damon’s wife left her newborn in a different state for what amounted to approximately 48 hours or more, nor did Sandra Bullock.
Congrats on your little one Scarlet Vixen!
You have no idea how horribly he treated her? I wouldn’t talk to him either.
I sure hope Connor and Bella don’t read these blogs, its all WILD SPECULATION kiddos.
HA like they are allowed online unsupervised! Their step mom can’t even go to the GYM without a Scientology babysitter. On the off chance they are reading, RUN from your Daddy’s freaky ass cult!
Just wondering Kaiser….do you have any children?
@kaiser: I agree with you.
I can’t imagine leaving my 6 month old for more that 3 hours, let alone a 3 week old baby. Partly most because I am nursing. And also because I can’t imagine being away from him for too long. No way I could leave my baby for a weekend of fun-filled parties. No.Way. Maybe one outing, but not all those events Nicole and her husband attended. Even if my mom was in town to babysit. Perhaps it’s my motherly instincts kicking in. I got my fill of partying B.B.( before babies). Nothing better for me than spending my evenings with my hubby and babies at home and tucking them in at night.
When you look at Tom and Nicole they both acted when they had children with their new spouses as if the children were their first born. I felt sorry for Isbella and Conner when Suri was born and Tom acted like this was the first time he was a father.
Was it wrong for Nicole and Keith to spend time away from their newborn daughter? I can not say as everyone is different when it comes to raising children.
But I have to agree with what some previous posters said, that something strange went on between Tom and Nicole.
Strange that no one mentioned Brad and Angie leaving their numerous kids alone. They are never critized!
“And maybe you’re not a parent, so you don’t realize this, but it’s perfectly normal for parents of newborns to take a few hours away from the baby. It’s important for parents to still have some alone time as a couple, and to focus on things other than just the baby. The only couples I know who never took any time away from their babies at this point were people who have no family around and/or can’t afford a babysitter.
Also, three-week-olds spend most of their time sleeping. I doubt that Faith was even aware that her parents were gone.”
THIS.
“Grace: true, but Nicole didn’t carry this baby, so from what are she and Keith taking time off?”
Um, it has nothing to do with who gave birth to the baby! Being new parents is intense and exhausting and getting away for a little while to be adults and take a breather is important.
And also…those events are her job.
“This woman is still not over Tom and the way he dumped her and wants to gets revenge againts him in trashy ways.”
Wut? Bwahaha.
Her other kids are 16 & 18 (and brainwashed against anyone not COS) and it’s up to them at this point who they want to have relationships with. She’s not ignoring them—she’s been cut away from them. I’m sure she’s there with open arms the minute either of them see clearly through the COS. Nicole is an “SP”—they aren’t allowed to talk to her.
I really hope the story about Scarlet & Sandra is true. It’d be nice to see a ‘girlfriends first’ attitude, given all the ridiculous selfish-pointless-competitive-cat-fights you see over such things. Guys have the ever prominent (really badly worded) ‘bros before hos‘ statement. Women should think along the same lines. Men come & go.
@JuniperGreen (#78)- “She’s not ignoring them—she’s been cut away from them. I’m sure she’s there with open arms the minute either of them see clearly through the COS”
I don’t know her personally, but I’m not so sure about that… The way she NEVER talks about them, never makes references to them when talking about children. I don’t doubt Tom separated them from her, but she always gives off this vibe that she never emotionally bonded with them. Reacting as though this baby was her ‘first’. It’s just a weird awkward vibe.
At the very least, she could mention them when she’s asked, even if just to say she’d love to see them more often, or talk about the good things going on in their lives. It just sounds like she has *no* relationship with either of them… And maybe she gave up on it a long time ago. But I don’t know a single good mother that would.
doris carroll: You must be trolling surely?
AJ and BP are *plenty* criticised. More than any celeb couple.
This blog entry however is about Nicole Kidman and Tom Cruise NOT the Jolie-Pitts. Also the JP’s don’t have a newborn baby at home.
why does it matter if kaiser has kids?
