Katie Holmes: “Every day my husband inspires me”

US Weekly has a kind of throwaway interview this week with Katie “amazing” wild-eyed Holmes, and it’s worth repeating if only to make fun of the robotic way she speaks. Everything is so great and perfect in Katie’s little programmed world, and she hasn’t deviated from her script in years:

Are you loving getting into Jackie O’s clothes?
We have seamstresses creating beautiful dresses that are replicas of real things she wore. Jackie had magnificent style that was appropriate for every event. Armani made two dresses for me too.

What have you learned from the role?
Jackie was phenomenal. She was also an editor and created so much around her.

Do you get acting help from your husband?
Every day my husband inspires me. We’re always creating new things, whether it’s a party or a script or a movie.

Will Suri act?
She can do whatever she wants and she’ll be great!

What do you like best about being a mom?
Everything. I’m so lucky!

[From US Weekly, print edition, August 9, 2010]

Kaiser and I were e-mailing about this, and she had this comment “blah blah amazing reboot great blah magnificent!

I also wanted to report on Life & Style’s cover story this week declaring that there’s “Baby No. 2 On the Way!” for Katie. She is pregnant while in character as Jackie O. and that’s about it. And while Life & Style claims that “Katie talks to Life & Style” all she did was given them a quick comment while on the red carpet for the screening of The Extra Man. She said “It’s just fabulous [being a mom]. I’ve very lucky. Very lucky.” Then she tapped herself on the side of the head to try and remember her additional talking points but couldn’t bring any to mind and moved on.

Life & Style also has some “evidence” that Katie is pregnant and it includes “She insists on fake cigarettes on set,” “Her clothing is getting baggier,” and “She loves playing pregnant Jackie.” Of course Katie loves playing pregnant Jackie. She hasn’t had a movie out since 2008 flop Mad Money. She does have a couple in the can coming out later this year, though, and we’ll see how they do. Katie is not going to have another baby to spoil. She’s probably counting the days until she gets out of her contract in late 2011. Having another baby will only delay the time until those black credit cards are in her name only.

Tom Cruise and Cameron Diaz were guests on the very entertaining British car show, Top Gear. I used to watch this show with my husband (we can’t get it where we live now, but we’re going to rent it on Netflix on demand now that I’m reminded!) and it’s surprisingly entertaining for all genders and non-car enthusiasts alike. I’m not a car person at all and I love this show. They pull all sorts of fun stunts that can also be very dangerous, as evidenced by the very serious accident that co-presenter Richard Hammond suffered in 2006. Hammond has since fully recovered after a brain injury and is back on the show.

Tom Cruise and Cameron Diaz separately raced a Kia around a track as part of Top Gear’s “reasonably priced car” race event, and I’m not going to post spoilers to the above video in this text because I want you to watch it and see for yourself! There are spoilers in the link to E!’s text quoted below. (The text itself doesn’t contain that spoiler.) I know it’s silly to talk about “spoilers” for a TV show, but if you watch the video you’ll see why I want to keep the suspense going. It’s fun and will brighten up your day:

Well if the movie thing stops working out (and, after the release of Knight and Day, you never know…), at least Tom Cruise and Cameron Diaz can fall back on race-car driving.

Cruise and Diaz tore up the track during a joint appearance on the BBC’s Top Gear on Sunday, both zipping through the course in astounding time—with the Mission: Impossible star narrowly averting a potentially dangerous accident.

[Cruise's near-miss is about at the three-minute mark in the clip above]

To promote the U.K. launch of their action flick, the actors got behind the wheel of a Kia for a segment called “Star in a Reasonably Priced Car” and attempted to break the course record held by Harry Potter star Rupert Grint.

Diaz, wearing her best game face and dropping her best F-bombs (”some of this is actually broadcastable,” quipped host Jeremy Clarkson), went first and flew around the circuit, just edging Grint’s time.

Then came Cruise, who at the end of his ride drifted off the track and briefly went up on two wheels but managed to bring the car back down without killing himself.

For all you can say about Tom Cruise, he is a really good sport and he kept his composure while on the track. He was so calm when racing around while Cameron was swearing like a trucker! That may have a lot to do with the fact that Tom has extensive experience racing cars, having starred in the 1990 film Days of Thunder.

Knight & Day may not have cleaned up at the box office, but it’s hanging in there. So far it’s grossed $161.78 million worldwide and had a production budget of $117 million, according to Box Office Mojo. Add in the DVD sales and it’s in the black, although it surely didn’t make as much as the studio is hoping for. I’ll probably catch it on DVD. Cruise is not my favorite person, but I can suspend disbelief when I see him on film. He plays crazy so well.

Also, don’t Tom and Cameron seem really cozy with each other? If Cameron was getting touchy feely like that with any other co-star there would definitely be affair rumors.

Cameron Diaz was able to take time off from her Knight and Day promotional tour to shop in Paris on Saturday with a young friend and Rachel Zoe's assistant Brad Goreski - ICYMI, check out our awesome collaboration with Rachel in which she battles the Zoeinator! Rachel and Cameron have worked together for a long time, and the style assistance came in handy with the actress's recent premieres in Munich, London, and Bordeaux. Cameron was casual, though, for a recent meet and greet with the leader of the Tour de France. Cameron picked something gray for dinner last night at the city's Maison de la Truffe.
