Katie Holmes showed up to the Critics’ Choice Awards in a dress that looked like a Toga. Who wore it better Katie or Tom Cruise?

Nicole Kidman publicist, Wendy Day, released the following statement:

"Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban confirmed today that they are expecting a baby. The couple are thrilled."

The other day I asked if Nicole was eating for one or two, and now we have the answer. This morning news broke that Nicole dropped out of filming a movie due to concerns over her unborn baby. Maybe the new baby will help her adopted kids like her as much as they like Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes.

Andrew Morton has written an unauthorized biography about Tom Cruise. In the book Morton makes a lot of unbelievable claims about Cruise including:

• Katie Holmes baby Suri was "conceived like Rosemary’s Baby", and that L Ron Hubbard sperm was used to conceive Suri
• Nicole Kidman "feared blackmail" over sex tapes made with Scientologists
• Scientologists "planted meadown of flowers for Tom and Nicole to run through"
• Cruise’s next mission is to recruit David Beckham

Tom has denied all the allegations and claims made in the book, even though he hasn’t read the book. Some say the book won’t be published in Britain because of libel laws in Britain, which require the author to tell the truth. Although the book sounds like it’s filled with a bunch of crazy lies, it would come as a total shock if all those claims turned out to be true.

Nicole Kidman says her father, Anthony, stood by her during the time following her divorce from Tom Cruise.

"When I went through… what I went through… I found out who my father was," she tells Britain’s Catholic Herald.

"Because there comes a time when you’re a daughter, that you suddenly need your father. And when you reach out for your father and he’s there for you, well, that’s a very special thing," the Aussie actress recalls of the turbulent time after her 2001 divorce.

"My father really stood by me at a tough time. He was strong and dignified, and I’m very grateful that I do have a good father, because having him there with me at that time put me in good stead for carrying on with my life and learning to trust again."

While Nicole shares joint custody of her adopted children Bella and Connor, now 15 and 12, with Tom Cruise, and she admits the kids prefer to live with Tom. Last week Katie Holmes revealed that Bella and Connor call her "Mom," while Nicole has admitted that they address her by her first name.

In 2006, Nicole married country singer Keith Urban in a Catholic ceremony in Australia. Today Keith has to keep listening to stories about how difficult things have been since Nicole and Tom split. Does Nicole have anything else to talk about other than things related to Tom Cruise?

In Parade magazine, Katie Holmes reveals that Tom Cruise’s adopted children call her “Mom. His first two children are incredible, really smart and kind,” Katie says. “They call me ‘Mom.’” This revelation comes a month after Nicole admitted that Connor, 12, and Isabella (who turns 15 on Saturday) call her by her first name.

"My kids don’t call me Mommy, they don’t even call me Mom,” the The Golden Compass star Nicole Kidman told U.K. TV show GMTV in November. “They call me Nicole, which I hate and tell them off for it."

Nicole tells her kids off? Maybe that’s why they don’t call her mom.

Suri helped Mom ring in her 29th birthday on Tuesday with a little furniture shopping in Hollywood. Katie tells Parade that she’s looking forward to baking with her 20-month-old at the family compound in Telluride, Colorado, over Christmas.

“We always make a lot of sugar cookies with decorating and sprinkles,” she says. “Suri will be in the dough everywhere. Tom has shown me the greatness of extra chocolate chips.”

The Mad Money actress also confesses that she doesn’t like being away from the littlest Cruise. ”She’s very aware,” Katie says. “This summer, when Tom was working in Germany, she’d wake up and say, ‘Hello, Berlin.’”

In the meantime, Katie continues to enjoy her new (literally) high-flying lifestyle. “I have done things I never thought I would do, like climbing mountains and flying in the P-51 [a World War II fighter]. That’s what is so inspiring about being with him — constant thrills and joy.”

She adds: “I mean, what we do in a week is extraordinary.”

Tom knows the secret to keeping a young bride happy is to keep life with him as stimulating as possible.
