Tom Cruise & Katie Holmes are renegotiating their “who wears the heels” policy

fp_5683879_cruise_holmes_cjny_090710

This is totally a non-story, but Katie Holmes and Tom Cruise stepped out with Suri, Connor and Isabella today in New York City. We haven’t had new photos of Katie and Tom together in a little while, so it’s good to see them. Little Suri is hiding her face in these pics, unfortunately, and she’s still being carried everywhere. I love these photos because Katie is wearing heels for the outing, and I think Tom isn’t. I’ve been studying the photos where I can see his feet, and those sneakers don’t look like his special lift sneakers. Hey, the girl gets tired of always wearing heels, you know? He looked at Katie and was like, “Don’t be a bitch and wear heels today, okay? My lifts are killing my back.” And Katie was like, “I don’t really give a sh-t, Xenu.”

I’d just like to have a word on Tom’s height – I wish that it didn’t bother him so much, you know? He’s an attractive man, and the bane of his existence is falling in love (chuckle) with tall women, so why not just live with it? Why the lifts and “Xenu commands Mrs. Cruise to wear flats”? Maybe it’s just because I just re-watched Julie & Julia, but I love it when a short guy is with a tall(er) woman (Julia Child was big!). It’s kind of sexy. But Tom’s insistence on looking tall makes me think that he’s really neurotic about it, and that’s not sexy. Eh.

Here’s a photo of Isabella and Connor. Connor has turned out to be a very handsome young man, right? Goodness.

    bella’s a normal looking girl. so what…that’s not the most flattering shot of her. at least she expresses some personal style with her cool hippie scarf.

    unlike stepford mom kankles-katie. 🙂

  2. Praise St. Angie! says:

    lol…those sneakers ABSOLUTELY have lifts in them.

  3. LittleFATMe says:

    Connor is a cutie, Isabella is looking odd in that pic – I think it is the angle mixed with the shirt. I like TomKat, they make me smile. Though, I admit, at first I was like, “Oh, how cute – little Joey Potter landed Tome Cruise.” Now, I miss little Joey Potter, I guess she had to grow up sooner or later.

  4. Kaiser says:

    Praise – LOL, do they? I think they have a modest (for Tom) heel, but they aren’t as obvious as his old wedge heels.

  5. Lady Jane says:

    Tom Cruise in skinny jeans and fluffy hair. He looks like a lesbian.

  6. lucy2 says:

    There’s at least an inch or so lift on those, but agree it’s not as hilariously obvious as some of his other shoes.
    I don’t know why it bothers him so much either, though I suspect there are a lot of things about himself that Tom just can’t accept and live with. 😉

  7. Kolby says:

    This is the first pair of flattering pants I’ve seen Katie in…..ever.

  8. missy says:

    I don’t think he’s ashamed of his height. If he was, he wouldn’t constantly date/marry tall women. I honestly think other people obsess over it more than he does.

  9. Tess says:

    Very funny, Lady Jane, you nailed it. The elfin one is looking incresingly effeminate and lesbian-like.

    Unfortunate shot of Isabella. The top is NOT a flattering cut for her. Must be tough to be a normal looking kid thrown in with a pack of insecure, preening fashionistas.

  10. Tiffany says:

    What is with the Tom Cruise hate. I know that Scientology is a turn-off and granted the dig at Brooke Shields was all kinds of wrong, but he apologized and she forgave and I am pretty sure some of his fans have as well (I’ll admit it, he still gets my money for movies). All in all he is a family man, he treats his fans great and you never hear about abusing cast and crew on sets. So he’s short and has a neurosis, does that make him, dare I say, human. There a more stars out there that deserve it more, I’m just saying.

  11. Maritza says:

    Conner is going to be a very handsome man one day. Isabella is cute but she is getting fat, I hope she learns to control her weight. Tom as always is very attractive. Kate is pretty but I wish she would stop making that smug look she does.

  12. Marjalane says:

    That’s an awful picture of Isabella! She looks like a young Candy Finnegan from Intervention in it!

  13. Tess says:

    Candy Finnegan. You’re right!!! I had a feeling that Isabella reminded me of someone but I couldn’t think who.

  14. Stronzilla says:

    But Penelope Cruz wasn’t tall. At any rate, I’m six feet tall and all my life I have been approached more by ‘vertically challeneged’ men than by men my own height or thereabouts. The talls ones have the biggest hang up about it and are also always with the shortest girls. The short guys know we’re worth the climb! Besides, we’re all the same size lying down.

  15. jessica says:

    LADY JANE is right.. he does look like a lesbian! ROFL!!!

  16. serena says:

    Connor has definitely Tom’s style, and it suits him. He’ll become more handsome, if he keeps this up.
    I’m glad Tom is always hangin’ with ALL of his children, unlike Nicole.
    He really his a doting father.

  17. LOVE ANGELINA says:

    I think Tom Cruise is a great dad. I think he is a really great person to. I think Tom looks normal and comfortable. I could care less if he wore lifts or whatever. Women wear heels. If Tom wants to be taller so what? I love him.

  18. Raven says:

    My guess is that Suri didn’t get her way and is having a fit. Maybe they fought over what she is wearing–like Katie got to wear the heels but Suri didn’t. Her fit is why she is not looking at the camera.

  19. missmilly says:

    I want them to be happy…must suck never to have privacy.

  20. Eleonor says:

    Isabella has to loose weight, or she will have seriuos health problems.

  21. California Surfer says:

    I think that Isabella looks quite a bit like Ellen Page.

  22. hellen says:

    Those are definitely not regular Nikes that Tommy-boy is wearing. Lift City, baby!

  23. Laurie says:

    Tom always keeps an arms length away from Katie too. I guess he hopes the distance gives the illusion of less disparity in their heights.

  24. Joe says:

    Doesn’t that daughter look like Matthew Broderick in drag? Just sayin.

  25. Bailey says:

    he is totally wearing lifts
    i not obsessed site has the guilty pictures. he is even wearing the same sneakers

  26. polkasox says:

    I’m not a huge fan of either, but to play devil’s advocate – maybe it’s her that’s self-conscious about her height? I’m 5’11” & my height is my one feature that I wish I could change – on one hand, I love being tall, but I don’t love sticking out like a sore thumb. Or have constant questions of, “wow, you’re TALL! Did you play basketball” No, I’m uncoordinated, thank you. It was always hard to date shorter men, & thankfully my soon to be husband is quite a bit taller, so it’s a non-issue. But I still rarely wear heels.

    I can’t help but think, maybe it’s her issue & she wants to wear flats so she’s not taller all the time?

  27. Alexa says:

    I like Isabella’s looks. She’s by far the most interesting looking one. And I pray that the rumers about how controlling and invasive scientology is are FALSE! I worry about Katie, Isabella, Connor and Suri. I even worry about Tom . . . I don’t think anyone signs up for being controlled via intimidation 24/7.

  28. maggiegrace says:

    Well, Tommy Boy’s in his usual uniform: jeans and button down shirt untucked. Dinner with the fam, movie premier, it doesn’t matter — IT’S WHAT HE ALWAYS WEARS. It’s odd to me. He has the fattest thighs and Katie has the fattest calves. Great pair. I’d do Connor, well, in a few years.

  29. TG says:

    @Praise St. Angie! – You called it. I too thought it looked like lifts in there. And whoever said Bella looks like a normal girl is right if normal = fat which in today’s world it sadly does. I will forgive her for the way she dresses because I think many teenagers go thru stages of looking horrible, I know my 13 year-old step-daughter is doing that right now. She is a beautiful girl, but feels it necessary to buther her hair and wear ridiculous makeup and clothes and I think many if not all of us have to go thru that stage, or how else do we learn what works and what doesn’t?

  30. original kate says:

    what straight man wears skinny jeans?

  31. Delta Juliet says:

    ROFL! He DOES look like a lesbian! How strange is that?

  32. aenflex says:

    I dont know about everyone else, but I dislike him because he’s an asshole, a self-righteous, judgemental, Zemu-worshipping, lift-wearing asshole. And he’s stuck to Miscavige like thetans to people. F Tom and the spaceship he rode in on.
    Rant over (and nothing against the kids)

  33. Kim says:

    As A lesbian I am offended… Oh nevermind U R right

  34. ashleighlauren says:

    Not even going to comment on Katie and Tom, but isn’t there some site policy about criticizing the way kids look? I seem to remember something about that way back. Although it could have been a different site.

    I feel bad for that girl. It’s one thing to be constantly followed as a celebrity, it’s another thing when you’re a kid of a celebrity. She didn’t ask to have famous parents. I would think it’s especially hard as a teen because everyone is so self-conscious then.

  35. Juanita says:

    I can’t help it, I seriously dislike the guy. But the child being carried everywhere seems logical to me – I would not let my small child walk so closely to a bunch of over-excited, pushing and shoving paparazzi either.

  36. Just a Poster says:

    I thought there was some rumbling about Bella waiting until she was 18 to bold back to Nicole?

    And yes, Nike for normal folks do not have that wide of a white band on the bottom 😉

    Katie’s hair looks fantab in these pictures, she actually looks really good in these.

    And WTF is up with Tom’s hair? He looks like he is going for the bed head look.

  37. raccoonprincess says:

    Oh, Stronzilla, I love your attitude!

    I want her shoes. I’ve never wanted anything she’s ever worn and I feel a little dirty. Maybe it’s because I have a broken foot and can’t even wear a heel as high as his lifty tennies.

  38. Leticia says:

    His jeans are too tight. Icky.

  39. DrM says:

    Isabella looks completely normal! I cannot believe some of the comments on here… “Isabella needs to “loose” (sic) weight or she’ll have serious health problems…”??? WTF is up with this sh**?? First of all its ‘lose’ ok? Which is what you did with that comment.

    Girl is just fine…

  40. Kiska says:

    I’m starting to wonder why Suri is unable to walk on her own. She is nearly 5 after all.

    Connor is very handsome and Bella is lovely. I don’t think she is fat but wearing a baggy sweater that doesn’t flatter her.

  41. e-non says:

    that poor kid is traumatized by those photographers; she’s always trying to hide.

    damn, is she ever gonna have issues ….

  42. Anoni Mus says:

    In the top photo it looks as if Tom was photoshopped in… strange pose I guess.

    Those sneakers paired with the tight jeans don’t help, he looks like a leprechaun or something.

  43. Camille says:

    Tom looks like shit.

  44. ♥Natalie♥ says:

    I was really hoping that ankle tight pants would never come back in style. When women wear them it makes their butt, tights and feet look big and when men wear them it just looks weird.

  45. jemshoes says:

    I’m loving Isabella and the fact that she looks so, well, normal! She’s definitely the most interesting person in that family.

  46. birdgherl says:

    Connor is hot! Bella should be out of the awkward stage soon.

  47. Shy says:

    I still can’t understand why he didn’t choose some shorter woman for his wife. For years he had the same problem with Nicole. And then he choose taller Katie.

  48. Isa says:

    This is the best I have seen Katie looking in a long time.

    Seriously, couldn’t his lifts be hidden better? By making the white part of the shoe appear less thicker by making some of it black? (I’m not the most articulate person, okay?)

  49. nnn says:

    Yeah, Tom looks so gay in those skinny jeans. Look at Connor’s ! Now that some man’s jeans. The boy oozes more masculine vibes and manhood than his own father.

  50. aj says:

    Spotted any UFOs lately, Tom?

  51. Shy says:

    And Tom is growing a bad haircut again. Long hair never suits him. He never looks good with it. Just ridiculous and bad. He has all the money in the world but he can’t wear long hair. He only looks good when his hair is short.

  52. Diva says:

    I think Bella is top heavy, that’s all, and when you’re top heavy and wear baggy clothes you look bigger everywhere. She’s not fat.

    Also… just because you don’t see Nicole with Connor and Bella doesn’t mean she doesn’t spend time with them! There are LONG stretches of time where you ONLY see Tom and Katie with Suri and I’ve seen ya’ll bitch about where the other two are. MAYBE they’re with their mother! Just an idea.
