Suri Cruise is so hot right now. At least if Forbes has anything to say about it. They put an exhaustive amount of research into their findings, studying all the hottest celeb kids under the age of five. They even employed a polling firm. Lest they be anything but totally thorough about who the most popular tot is.
Suri Cruise is the most popular kid on the playground. The 2-year-old daughter of Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes tops Forbes.com’s second annual list of “Hollywood’s 10 Hottest Tots.” Forbes.com, which ranked celebrity children 5 years old and younger based on media attention and their parents’ popularity, said Suri _ known for her stylish outfits and haircut – popped up in more news articles and blogs than her peers.
Three of Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt’s six children made the list: Shiloh Jolie-Pitt, 2, is in second place after coming in first last year; Zahara Jolie-Pitt, 3, is in third place; and Pax Jolie-Pitt, 4, is fourth on the list. “Though not quite the tabloid stars his sisters Zahara and Shiloh are, his recognizable mug and A-list parents give him space in the top five,” said Forbes.com of Pax.
Rounding out the top 10: Sam Alexis Woods, daughter of Tiger Woods and his wife, Elin; Cruz Beckham, son of David and Victoria Beckham; Matilda Rose Ledger, daughter of Michelle Williams and the late Heath Ledger; David Banda, son of Madonna and Guy Ritchie; Sean Preston Federline, son of Britney Spears and Kevin Federline; and Sam Sheen, daughter of Denise Richards and Charlie Sheen.
Forbes.com looked at a year’s worth of press clippings and Web presence for more than 50 Hollywood kids. The Web site then narrowed the list, recruiting the polling firm E-Poll Market Research to get awareness scores for the children and consumer appeal rankings for their celebrity parents.

I have to say that, considering their criteria include the parents’ popularity, I’m surprised Suri did so well on the list. You’ve got to believe Tom Cruise’s popularity brought Suri’s down significantly. Imagine how hot she’d be if she had a normal dad. If she drops in position in a few years I can just see a potentially diva Suri screaming at her dad about dragging her down. Man I hope that happens.
Something tells me there is going to be a major Shiloh/Suri rivalry until the end of time. It’ll just exist in the tabloids’ imaginations, but they’re so close in age – and hotness – that they’ll be in constant competition. Who gets into the better nursery school. Gets the better score on the SATs. Who joins the better cult. It’ll be madness. Luckily the people at business magazine Forbes will probably be there the whole way, tabulating childhood hotness for us. Otherwise, they might have to talk about the stock market.
Suri has actually been remarkably absent from the photographers lately. There have been no new pictures of her since November 7th, which is very unusual. Here’s Suri with mom Katie visiting a playground in Central Park on October 23rd. Images thanks to Fame.

How gross, referring to a child as “hot.”
Besides, Chris Klein is the real father of Suri.

Praise Xenu!!! *tying red string*
Suri is a little cutie. As is Shiloh and Princess Z. Why all the manufactured drama for babies, Forbes?

No Violet Affleck?
I can’t wait for the headlines on CB in 15 years when Suri and Shiloh have a dance off for Cruz Beckham’s affections.

whatevs. Vi Affleck was so robbed.

sorry folks but she creeps the hell outta me. She never smiles, she’s like a brunette Child of the Corn. Also, where’s Maddox? Too old?

Violet totally WAS robbed! But let’s be honest. They just wanted to compile a list of “popular” babies, the most overexposed kids. The fact that Forbes did this makes me ill.

Katie’s wearing a long sleeved sweater and a coat. Suri’s in the same doll dress and shoes. Is she one of the Undead? Forever immortalized in July of 2008?
And “hottest celebrity kids”? Is it just me or does that pedo-riffic headline in Forbes make anyone else uncomfortable?

Hottest? Explains why the kid never has a coat on.

Whoops. I made the wrong cult reference.

@Zoe – Too old. Madd is 7 years old.
@Baho – Yes, it’s very creepy. Dateline Predator creepy.

“Hot babies”?! OMFG, that is obscene. Why can’t a child just be a child?
As for as Suri being the most popular kid in the playground, what playground and popular with whom? I have never seen that child interact with another human being other than her mother, and only marginally with her.
To Zoe: It said kids under the age of five so Maddox is too old and Pax just barely made the cut; he’ll be five at the end of this month.

Ya’ll have got to see the pic on dlisted where it looks like she’s giving the middle finger. Too funny!!

I find this very creepy and if I had an eligible child who didn’t make the cut, I’d be grateful. Hotness needs to be restricted to, oh, at least 12 and over.
As for popularity, does Suri even know other kids exist?
Stupid poll. Dumb idea. Violet Affleck got lucky on this one. I’m personally offended that Kingston Rossdale was overlooked, he’s one of the cutest kids out there. Maybe he got lucky too.

Well I just knew it wouldn’t be the breathtaking Sadie Sandler.

Creepiest maybe, but not hottest. She has that glazed, cyborg look. Identical to her father’s weird public face.

This is wrong , on oh so many levels.

For the life of me, I can’t understand why some people think it’s funny or even acceptable to make fun of a child’s appearance.
Sadie Sandler may well grow up to be an incredible beauty. Or maybe just a nice person.

This is the skeeviest tab crap I’ve seen in a while… Is the celeb world really turning into a boundary free zone? Does anything go now? Are there no limits?

I totally agree with you Syko, seriously, how sad do you have to be to pick on a toddler if you yourself are over, say 5 years old?
Queen Z is NOT going to be happy about this poll though!
EDIT: Doodahs – the scary thing is that this is FORBES! I know they mean hot, as in “hottest trends”, but all those writers under one roof, you think they’d come up with a more appropriate term?

You know what would be fantastic Ellen? If Sadie discovered the cure for cancer, but decided you were to damn ugly to use it if you ever needed it.

Gotta agree, let’s not call children ‘hot’. It screams of pedophilia.
And why the hell does Suri NEVER have a jacket on?
Report this comment as spam or abuse
Ew, hottest celebrity baby. Wrong title indeed.
But with that said Violet should have been on there at number. Halle Berry’s daughter should have made the top three.
Oh and didn’t you know? Suri can take anything be it hot or cold. She looks at the jacket and blasts it away with the powers Xenu gave her.

I’m positive they were using “hot” to refer to “popular, most ‘it’ child” – not hottest in physical desireableness. (is that a word?) In any case, Vi was still robbed, but Jen and Ben are so normal, I bet they’re happy she’s not on that list.

This title should get your 20 years in sing-sing. “HOT BABY”????????? How disgusting.
And oh by the way–Suri Cruise isnt a baby any more. She’s not even a toddler. She looks about 4 to me. I don’t care what they say.

Because Katie wants to make sure everybody sees that she dresses Suri in designer outfits. She thinks that makes her a good mother.

Violet Affleck did get robbed. How did Britney’s kid make it and Violet didn’t? Like Cici said, maybe because her parents are normal, she’s not quite the hot topic that the other kids are!

@caribassett, I have those same types of thoughts.

What they should say is “overexposed”, but certainly not “hot”, maybe cold.
By the way, that child looks a lot like Josh Hartnett, IMO.

There is something intriguing about suri beside her beautiful face and that’s what makes her different from other children.

I like Suri best among these celeb tots. Shiloh is uber cute too, wanna pinch her cheeks. Z is a firecracker,Violet’s dimples are very very cute but why are we putting kids in a poll? and for being hot? WTF?

Mairead: I somehow totally missed that this was Forbes.. That does make it scarier! I was so distracted by the fact that someone (plural?) actually had to compile these statistics… Okay, now I feel more skeeved… They hired a company?? There is market research on this? There were 50 tots in the running?? It’s like a twisted beauty pageant. I just wonder how much pressure these girls will feel in their ‘awkward years’ if they continue to live under the spotlight like this.
(That’s what I get for not really reading the article properly before I jump on my soapbox)

Suri is a little cutie, but all of them are.
It IS a bit dubious but hey, I’d rather be reading about ‘hot’ babies than the vomit-fest that is Speidi or Wonk-eye Hilton or the Hogan clan.
Mairead – Queen Z is above such things. ‘Hot’ gets cold, she’s still the most powerful.

They pimp that child out to the press because it’s the only thing remotely normal about either Tom, or that pathetic Katie. When did she turn 50? Jesus, she’s going to be so f’d up in a few years, really very tragic that they use her as a prop, squirreling her away from other children and a normal life.
