We went back and forth a bit over this Us story about Katie Holmes and Jamie Foxx’s “secret fling” because it sounds so very tabloidy. Still it’s a fun ride because the response to Katie’s lovelife has been very positive lately. The spring in her step is palpable. It’s easy to believe that she might be getting some hush-hush loving, and I bet she’s raring to move on from Tom Cruise’s need for speed. (Gross.)
Us wants us to know that Katie Holmes and Jamie Foxx are indeed banging. I don’t believe it, but I love the story. In August, the rumors started about Katie & Jamie after they danced the night away at a Hamptons party. In Touch already told us that they were seeing each other but trying to keep it quiet. Us now “confirms” that Jamie & Katie totally did it after the party. They also use the fact that Jamie has been in NYC for months filming the Annie remake. Us says they’re enjoying a no-strings-attached set of hookups that are filled with Scientology jokes.
Of course Tom Cruise “feels betrayed.” He helped Jamie get cast in Collateral, and “doesn’t care if it was just a hookup.” Us says that bonded over their mutual distaste for Scientology. In 2005, Tom invited Jamie to dinner, which turned out to be three hours of videos at the Celebrity Centre. “Jamie thought they were going to party and was p-ssed he had to sit through a Scientology dinner.” I bet that’s how a lot of actors feel about meeting Tom. They think they’re gonna party, and then the CO$ emblem starts flashing. Jamie is using this to his advantage: “Jamie made Katie crack up talking about Scientology!” What I’m getting from this new information is that the way into Katie Holmes’ pants is by making fun of David Miscavige. Sounds like a decent aphrodisiac to me. Here’s some highlights from Us:
* The fling started at that Hamptons party where they danced together to “Blurred Lines.” Katie “looked nervous” but initiated contact by “impulsively” grabbing Jamie’s hand. A bystander says that at 1:30 am, “he gave her a hug and a pat on her behind. He was trying to get her to go to his room. They hoked up. It was two adults having fun, getting tipsy, and one thing led to another.”
* Katie needed a good roll in the hay: “It had been a scary year, and then Jamie enters her life and puts a smile on her face. He showed concern about her when almost all of Tom’s other friends had cut her off.” Katie prefers Jamie’s “lighthearted and fun” company to the “really intense” Tom.
* Jamie has “extraordinary powers of seduction” and “runs a smooth game.” “His favorite thing to do is look you in the eyes and serenade you while dancing. He’s so good that before you know it, you’re in his bed and he’s calling you a cab home.”

You know, I really don’t believe this story at all, but it paints an interesting new picture of Katie. She took the single-mom narrative as far as it could go, and now her career needs some spicing up. This Jamie Foxx hookup story makes Katie seem like a fun loving girl who knocks back a few drinks and rightfully enjoys sexy flings. Hollywood should cast her in a raunchy, R-rated comedy. Maybe?
These photos of Jamie playing Daddy Warbucks/Benjamin Stacks are slowly killing me. He’s so hot, but those giant scissors are not.

Oh, dear…that toga-like dress. That’s one of her designs, right?
Gun to my head, what would I wear? Marchesa or Holmes & Yang?
*ponders for a second*
Yup, Holmes.
That dress is UNBELIEVABLE! Her style is in critical condition. Why can’t her agent sit her down and tell her she cannot call herself a fashion designer anymore and, furthermore, she MUST have a stylist. It’s getting embarrassing.
She looks better when she is casual, like in the second pic with the jeans
Funny, as I was scrolling down, I got stuck for a second at just the top portion of that photo…. a quick glance.. the hair up, glasses, wide gold bracelet…and the top portion of the dress… and I was thinking it was going to be a long, flowing, greek-goddess kind of dress…. oooooh, pretty! Then my scrolling got un-stuck, and I saw the bottom. Nope. 🙁
funny, but i like the dress))) It sits well on a slim body, it is so utterly simple and it kinda says – “whatever, I enjoy myself”. would totally wear that.
I don’t buy this story, either. But I’d be lying if I said I didn’t wish it were true. I actually think they seem like a good match.
I REALLY REALLY REALLY want this to be true.
not buying it totally, but I hope it turns out to be true.
nobody would blame her. Poor Thing probably hasn’t had a good roll in the hay in years! I don’t believe the story, but it’s fun. I wish she does find someone who will undue the retentive behavior she had to endure all those years.
Nope. I think that Foxx and Cruise are still close. US Weekly overplayed their hand because Katie is about as sexy as a wet paper bag.
I don’t think Jamie and Tom were ever as close as the media is making them out to be. IIRC, Jamie wasn’t at Tomkat’s wedding despite the fact that several other celebrities were invited. I think they were just co-stars, who occasionally hung out.
That said, I’m not sure if I buy this story. It would be fun if it were true though!
ITA….Brooke Shields was invited and had to go make nice after the whole postpartum debacle, so why wouldn’t a “real friend” like Jamie be invited? Something about JF creeps me out, I don’t like his vibe….I just don’t find him genuine.
IMO I don’t think Tom would care if the story was true; it’s not like he was hitting that.
I think there are many men who find her sexy. She has that vulnerable, fragile… broken but still sweet vibe going on. I picture her biting her lower lip when she is nervous… and some men find that very sexy. Besides, she is beautiful… not in a stunning, head-turning, look-at-me kind of way, but still beautiful.
@Belle I”m not sure if your response was to my comment. If it was I want you to know I wasn’t saying Tom wasn’t hitting it because she’s not attractive, I was saying he wasn’t hit it because…. um well put it this way. He’d probably prefer to hit Jamie Foxx… 🙂
Very well put, Belle. Definitely true.
I think Katie is quite the sneaky woman. She is totally underestimated by those around her.
She “fell in love” with a major superstar to gain international fame and celebrity. Then dumps him in a shocking and quick act.
This suits her image now – she orchestrated the publicity and cover article.
I totally agree. I fancy her, and I believe she’s essentially a good person, but people seem to have forgotten that she VOLUNTARILY enganged herself in a miserable, constructed marriage which was actually a contract. A contract which granted her a pretty high amount of money. She sold herself and her poor child off. Sure, I give her a small benefit, maybe she realised quickly which terrible mistake she had made, and wanted out of it soon after that, but still, she was part of that mess and she doesn’t have my pity for it.
Unless, you’ve seen evidence of this “contract” how do you know it exists? There are so many crazy rumors about Tom and Katie. Is Suri really L. Ron Hubbard’s child??? Maybe, I’m naive, but I do believe she really loved Tom. According to some reports, she did not receive much in the divorce settlement, only child support. However, I do agree that she’s a lot more calculating than people realize.
I read more quotes from this article, and I don’t believe it was leaked from her camp. It was very pro-Tom. It said he’s the best father in the whole world and feels betrayed by Katie etc.
+1000000 if you’re going to get married to someone especially from a different religion I would have had my homework done, and if the contract thing is true that would raise all kinds of red flags. Call it blinded by love, or career motivation, but she successfully got out of the marriage with a very good deal (money and her child)no pity or sympathy necessary.
I agree with the idea that she knew what she was getting into and was looking to get a career boost from her marriage. If he did ‘girlfriend interviews’ with Alba and Garner as rumors go, wouldn’t Katie have had to do something similar? She did get a clothing line out of it, after all.
I so want this to be true. Only so I can say that she’s crossed over to the dark side for a second time in her life but this time she won’t go back. 😀
Go get some hot a$$, Katie!
I know it’s all ra-ra about Katie because of her divorce from Tom and it seems as if she was victimized the entire time, but let’s not forget she’s not a good actress. That has nothing to do with Scientology, and she’s had plenty of chances to shine in decent parts. *sign off*
I’m with you, but most of Hollywood has gotten by on something other than being actually good at their jobs, so that’s not so unusual… And I frankly just don’t buy the whole victim thing. Everyone talks about brilliant she is, but they don’t want to hold her accountable for actions.
I hope that really happened, Katie needs some new love interest, or just some good banging you know.
I really want this to be true. I love thinking that Katie is getting some lovin from Jamie Foxx
Coordination of publicists… I thought Jamie was, um, never mind…
I thought that too. That’s why I don’t believe it.
MTE, this story is pure BS.
I don’t care how hot, if a man serenaded me while dancing I would probably burst out laughing. It just seems so cheesy.
I love Katie. That’s all.
I really hope she’s getting it on with Jamie. She’s a young, good looking woman who deserves some fun after her years of misery with Tom.
I don’t care if they are doing it or not, but please don’t try to sell her as sexy. She’s too darn awkward for sexy, and lacks the confidence to pull it off. She hasn’t made the transformation from cute and pretty to sexy, and I don’t think she ever will. There is no need to — not everyone has to go for sexy.
As I said somewhere above, there are different views of what ‘sexy’ is, and some men would find Katie’s ‘awkward and pretty’ to be sexy. Not to mention, with the right partner, sometimes the quiet ‘awkward’ ones can be crazy-freaky in the bedroom.
Also, what about this story is trying to ‘sell’ her as sexy? That she would have a fling with Jamie Foxx?
She’s pretty but totally sexless to me. Jamie Fox on the other hand…..
Katie did this to herself by flirting at that party.
She is so bland, this is total pr
Jamie is awesome…I too would like for this story to be true but from what I understand from past interviews with Jamie is that he prefers thicker women. But still, Katie is gorgeous (if only she would stop wearing unflattering clothing) and so is Jamie so…and I would love to hear any and all Scientology jokes.
