This news came out late last week, and I didn’t get a chance to cover it, but I think it’s really interesting and I’d like to discuss it, so just suck it up if you’ve heard it already, all right? If you haven’t heard it already, here’s the deal: there’s this rumor that Katie Holmes doesn’t even like her daughter’s name, so she wants to change it now that she’s out of Tom‘s grip. Weird, right?
It turns out that Katie never liked Suri’s name (which, by the way, is Persian and means “red rose,” according to the first few baby name sites I looked at. There’s also a rumor that the name is Hebrew in origin and that it means “princess,” but a lot of people think that’s total bullshit). She’s calling her Scout for now, which I think is adorable, and she also wants to make Cruise her middle name and change her last name to Holmes. So potentially this little girl that Katie carries around all the time could be known as Scout Cruise Holmes at some point in the future. Ok.
I had this friend in middle school, and she got pregnant in the 7th grade. For real, the 7th grade, how insane is that? But she had a daughter and she named her Jasmine, but about a month after she was born my friend decided that she liked Autumn better, and she had her name changed. I thought that was strange at the time, but this is a whole lot stranger. There’s a difference between changing your one-month-old baby’s name and changing your six-year-old’s name, you know? One can’t even hold her head up, and the other, you know, has had her name for six years. The rumor might be true, but I doubt it will stick. I mean, this is Suri Cruise. She’s always going to be Suri Cruise.
Speaking of little Scout Holmes (see? I don’t think it’ll work), guess who’s going to Catholic school this fall! She’ll be going to the same school that Lady Gaga attended, the Covenant of the Sacred Heart in Manhattan, where tuition is $38,000 a year and nothing else about the school matters because tuition is $38,000 a year. That will be an interesting adventure, won’t it? I’m not way familiar with Catholicism, but I bet nuns wouldn’t take too kindly to penis candy.
Lastly, Katie Holmes is a terrible actress. I know that’s not exactly breaking news, but I’ve been watching Dawson’s Creek lately, and her acting is so awful that it’s turned back around to amazing. Seriously, take a moment out of your day to watch some clips on YouTube. Girl is a hot damn mess in a midriff top and high waisted jeans.
Emily, This rumor has already been debunked. Even if she wanted to do the name change, she’d have to go through the courts and get Tom’s permission to do so…and that’s unlikely to happen.
I knew this could not be true. However, I was thinking that maybe Katie was trying to get back at Tom because in private she had to refer to him as “Highest Supreme Eternal Thetan” and curtsy.
I think Suri is an awful name too. But yeah, it would be weird to just suddenly inflict a different name on her at that late stage. Meg Ryan did that with her daughter. Suddenly decided to change her name to Daisy when she was about three.
I just started watching Dawson’s Creek this morning, thanks to you. I love the show so far, but yeah she’s a horrible actress. But do you know what else we need to talk about? How bad Katie’s back is going to be if she continues to carry Suri until she’s, I don’t know, thirteen, which is what looks like is going to happen. Seriously, Katie, if you’re not comfortable with Suri walking even though she’s like six years old now, get a damn stroller.
someone posted some videos that show just how many papparazi are there, and how close they are hovering around them calling out to them. The photos are angled to keep them out of the frame. in 1 you can see just how little walkway they got where katie was carrying suri who had her face buried in her shoulder. poor kid is probably really frightened.
Actually she loooks really peeved with the pap in some of the pictures. shes not liking the attn, hiding her face a lot. http://www.justjared.com/tags/suri-cruise/
Ah, I see that you took me seriously…
ha ha -i win! hello, gosippy -whatever- the- hell -you -tell -you-r parents- nobodies: i just made a bet with myself that i spend more on socks than all of you never-will-be’s make in a year..and i won! ha ha ! you’re poor! and fat… fYI: women’s brains are 40% smaller than mens! that’s not me, that’s science- argue with Einstein. ha ah again!
I’m still confused how the first amendment gives them the right to harass the crap out of children just to sell a photo. Wouldn’t that fall under child abuse more? Suri isn’t a celebrity. BTW, I love Scout as a name… for a DOG! And little t, yes women’s brains are 40% smaller but we men use 90% of ours thinking of boobs so they are much more advanced.
