Katie Holmes Makes It To The Matinee
Katie Holmes leaves her New York City home for a matinee performance of All My Sons in New York City on Wednesday.
On Tuesday night, Katie made her long-awaited appearance on the ABC show Eli Stone. Watch the video below!
Working with Katie was great,” Jonny Lee Miller told OK!. “It was fantastic. She was a really nice person to have around. .. She’s a phenomenal actress.”
“She’s just a star,” Natasha Henstridge said. “Everyone loved working with her. .. She’s wonderfully talented and I think people forget a little bit. So much of the buzz was about her being married that you forget how talented she is. ”

Cute
Katie? talented? yeah, right…
The episode of Eli Stone with Katie Holmes bombed. The first half of the episode (and therefore the Nielson ratings) included two minutes of Dancing With The Stars. Hence, the first half hour ratings of Eli Stone were obviously higher than the second half and the show would have received much lower ratings had ABC not included two minutes of the series Dancing with the Stars in the time slot for Eli Stone.

Katie Holmes is out of her league. Maybe they can revive Dawson’s Creek and let her play one of the teen mothers this time. I think that’s the only way she might get a steady job.
Oh of course #2 you are a better judge of talent than the pros…that’s why you’re sitting aound at home writing dumb comments while Katie’s working. S.

sexy
i second to jennifer she really is not talented- and for her sense of style ummm…nope…only her daughter suri has the style of fashion..
#3, The ratings might not have been huge but many critics such as people from EW and NY Daily News agreed that katie dida great job. She’s not the world’s greatest actress, but I think she has a lot more talent than people give her credit for. Hopefully, she’ll be able to find her niche in the entertainment industry.
Her teeth look awful!
She’s hitting Suri’s bottle. Barley water is just sugar water but the ***** can’t stop herself. No wonder all her recent pictures show a closed mouth smile.
Look closer at her teeth!
A weird thought occurred to me.
What if her teeth reflect how old she’s beginning to look.
This woman has totally skipped her mid twenties, she looks a couple a years short of 50 to me.
It’s a shame. Bring back the Katie from “The Gift.” The pretense of marriage to the Cruiser is stressing her out.
she is way overrated as actress…i can name at least three actors in dawsons creek already who were way better than she…and she was with the star treatment all the time.
michelle williams- obvious.
joshua jackson
the one who played gramps- lol.
Post the link(s) to the articles #8. (you won’t because the ratings were bad and those articles don’t exist….just go to the link I posted and read for yourself).
Everyone is in agreement, Eli Stone is about to go belly up. Even stunt-casting with the multi-untalented Katie Homely, the freak, didn’t work.
People don’t want to waste their time and money watching people with NO TALENT. When will some of these idiot directors learn that instead of taking cheap shots like stunt-casting?
If the directors that hire Katie, and other no-talents like her, were capable of producing a quality show and would hire quality talent, they
wouldn’t have to stunt-cast.
Anne Hathaway (among others) would have been a fine choice for Ann in AMS.
**Substituting with Katie Homely is like using SALT when the recipe calls for SUGAR**
This is so important to remind everybody!
Comparing Nicole and Penelope (and Mimi) to Katie is like comparing a Lamborghini, Ferrari, and Rolls Royce to a Ford Escort.
#12, I’m not good at posting links, but here you go.

Why EVERY day do we see this incredibly boring freak on your site. Who cares what she is wearing or doing. In a few years, she will identical to Tom anyway. Fugly and dull. And the poor child should be kept out of site.
Thanks #14
I opened the first link. This is not an UNBIASED review. Notice how the reporter’s first sentence is:
” As a very loyal Dawson’s Creek fan, I was about as excited as Dawson Leery getting a director’s cut DVD of A.I. for Creek star Katie Holmes’ return to television.”
Any review that starts out “As a very loyal Dawson’s Creek fan” is not objective. It is a personal opinion of the author.
I’ll check out the 2nd link you posted now….
OK, #14..I read the second link. Is the following comment from the NY Daily News what you were referring to when you said “many critics such as people from EW and NY Daily News agreed that katie dida great job”?
From the NY Daily News:
“Vocally, she’s not Lena Horne. On some of the high notes she’s closer to Kristin Chenoweth. But she makes the song fun and she’ll probably make some of the audience break into a sweat, which means everything is working according to plan.”
I didn’t find anything in the link you provided that said she did a great job. ???????
That’s right Clark. The thoughts for the day are:
Comparing Nicole and Penelope (and Mimi) to Katie is like comparing a Lamborghini, Ferrari, and Rolls Royce to a Ford Escort.
AND
Substituting a real actress with Katie Homely is like using SALT when the recipe calls for SUGAR.
ı love tomkat they are loyal and lovely and little suri is a little princess ,a real cutie

that’s because I doubt these “pros” are being honest. they’d make themselves and their show look bad if they admitted katie wasn’t good. I tried to watch her clip unbiased, but I I couldn’t get over how bad it was. terrible style, terrible moves. she looked like a bad transvestite. I don’t know what happened, Katie used to be beautiful. I even thought she was decent in Dawson’s Creek. but her other work has never been worth mentioning, unless you count copying Posh’s style as an accomplishment.
I don’t know what happened to her teeth??? There are closeups on Dlisted. Someone said that she may have had them filed down in preparation for veneers.
http://www.dlisted.com/node/28900/images/spl56768_001.jpg
Wouldn’t that be something? I agree that her teeth are bad. Why didn’t her parents give her give braces? Or better yet, why didn’t she get them while she was on DC. Braces would have been a much better gift to herself than buying clothes that don’t last or stay in style.
A beautiful smile is forever. Designer duds are just stuff.
I think at this stage, she needs to either get braces or leave her teeth alone. Two Chicklet smiles in the same clan would be way too much too bear. If she gets veneers she will look horrible (as most people do). I’ve never understood why veneers can’t be smaller. If it weren’t for that, veneers would be great.
Where do you guys see her teeth? What pic? She looks old beyond her years.
so it is chilly in NY!
Katie all wrapped up with big sweater and jacket,
Wonder if poor little Suri will still be dragged out wearing a flimsy dress….
I survive the clip of katie dancing and sinning.
So totally unnatural and iliquid. Her moves don’t flow.
Her figure is awful too.
Huge hips and thick thighs, yet flat chest. At one point I thought she was wearinf some skinny jeans with a tank top.
She really isn’t sexy at all.
No wonder she is dressed more and more like Tom’s older brother now.
Tom, Katie and Souri are the most gorgeous, perfect family i know. Katie’s thighs look so sexy and strong! The thought of her and the hot, alpha-manly Tom cavorting in ecstatic spasms of love rings me no end of joy.
she actually sang ok in eli stone, but this was pre-recorded and we all know we all can be singers after some voice improvement in the studio.
i would feel sorry for katie and tom, but they really seem to be loving FAMEWHORING. so i don´t. too bad the child has to be put through this.
1) The director and camera operators were working overtime. Each frame hides Katie’s misshapen hip region.
There is barely a quarter of a second of a full length frontal Katie. Or full length sideways or backwards.
They even had dancers block her bottom half. The woman looks awful and needs to gain weight, her legs and hips will look better with more paddding, bigger, but better.
2) Synopsis: Katie does belong on comedic silly episodic TV, not broadway, not Movies.
her hair looks greasy, looks like she slept in that outfit, no makeup, she looks like a lost, burned out boy. she is really OVER, she doesn’t warrant being posted like this.
kh is a nothing, she proves it over and over, there are so many adorable stars out there with beauty and brains, with a cause…post THEM.
Yes, Tilly #23, I fear so. No doubt, during the day there will be a post or posts of Suri in her designer summer dress.
No sweater or jacket, oh my, for fear it would make her party dress less visible. It’s not easy being a ticket broker.
p.s. maybe one of the servants will sneak a warm cover over Suri,
I say sneak or they might get fired by the master.
Does Katie wears some kind of false caps normally., and she left them in a cup on her bedside table today!!
And always remember:
Comparing Nicole and Penelope (and Mimi) to Katie is like comparing a Lamborghini, Ferrari, and Rolls Royce to a Ford Escort.
why in the world would someone with all the resources in the world have such disgusting teeth?
looks like she was chewing rocks!
i don’t understand why some people are so particular with their health and appearance yet they neglect their teeth?
poor dental hygeine can lead to a host o other illnesses.
even in the before photo her teeth look yellow and crooked.
it makes no sense escpecially when her husband has a million watt smile!!
She looks awesome. :)
now I see why suri never wears any warm clothes like jackets.
her female master, aka, the mother, is wearing it!
Throw her a bone!
Suri looks very average to me, she always looks half asleep with those heavy eyes and that ridiculous blanket and being carted around like a baby. She is just not stunning, beautiful, any of these words people are using about her, just spoiled, papmered, run round after…
Now with the bowl cut!
Bwahahahahahah! She looks even more plain and please retire her as Tomkat’s prop.
bravo to katie, tom and suri, people are so jealous of you, go on with the goo work
You forget Bella and Conner are Tom’s children too. #36
Or in your mind they’re only hired help like Mr. Cat\Wolf\Monkey\super man?
Hey, it’s 46 degrees right now in NYC. Suri should be showing up in Manhattan any minute now dressed in her bathing suit.
Considering how much of a crazed fanatic Tom Cruise is, i have no trouble believing that Suri is the product of artifical insemination using the frozen sperm of L.Ron. She looks a little like him too.
Can someone just show me a pic of her teeth!!!

http://www.dlisted.com/node/28900/images/spl56768_001.jpg
Thank you Sonia!! Ewe!! Have they always been that bad???
Katie looks very cool.
I lauIghed… I cried… I cried some more…when I watched Katie on this clip. Dancer… No Singer…. uh No…. Actress… well, that is slipping into the no category.
What was she thinking? Why wouldnt someone tell her just how terrible that was. I could listen to finger nails on chalk board longer than that mess.
Just think what we hear is the result of ALOT of mixing in the studio and that was the best they could make it sound. Even Paris Hilton sounded better.
I just think she set herself up by marrying Tom to be this great actress like his former relationships and she just isnt. She cant sing, dance or act much.
Maybe comedy will work for her?
You sound like Bella and Conner are not Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes family! #25.
No wonder they hardly bring the two older kids out, because fans like you don’t include them in the “family”.
You’re so heartless.
Can you call yourself human being?
Adopted kids are still kids!
Not to mention neither of the two older kids look autistic.
People, her teeth…i i bet she’s having her caps replaced. Many, many in Hollywood have a full new mouth and I’m betting hers is getting ready for an upgrade. Pity her acting can’t be given the same treatment.
Watched the episode….she was dull as toast and frankly devoid of character. ( How bad do you have to be to remove the character from a character??? Think about it!!)
Horrible writing. I agree the one note song of the premise has reached its ending for Eli Stone, but knowing network tv they’ll beat the dead horse for a full season.
I never had heard of her before I heard she was “dating” Tom Cruise. Just to be fair and give her a chance, I watched some of the first half hour of Eli Stone. I had to change channels the “acting” was bad.
I never saw her on Dawson’s Creek. If she has been “acting” for that many years, she must have really been bad on that show.
I can’t believe she could get any acting job other than a small town Christmas play, etc. It is obvious that it’s not what you know but who you know. Sad that she doesn’t have any self-respect than to stay in the public eye and let people make fun of her. Someone needs to level with her.
oops…forgot to say that I was totally distracted from the show because of all the weird faces she makes constantly. She twists her mouth, rolls her eyes, blinks her eyes. turns her head. I have never seen anything like it. She made me a nervous wreck.
So much for the big Katie TV moment. KH was just average at best. Defiantly not that sexy. Very tall and slim. But her legs are actually too short for her height. That’s why she looks funny.
KH as a singer - never ever. Can I say screechy.
I can think of at least 15 actresses that would have been much better and way hotter in the role. Total PR move for her Broadway play. Again very average at best.
Katie is merely a shadow of her former self. But she has all the money and houses and press and clothes and security and press and Tom’s money and clothes, shoes and jewels and Tom’s money and …………………………………………………………see where I’m going.
AGREE MEG !!!!….I have always loved Katie, but that ” one-sided mouth action “, is odd for her……She was so out of character on Eli Stone, that it made me uncomfortable for her !!!…..She has NEVER been able to sing, so I don’t know why she still gets these parts….AND, her teeth…I don’t ever remember seeing her teeth like that .. ( on d-list video )…Her mouth was NOT like that on Eli Stone…..Unless it is, and that is why she hardly opens her mouth, and talks one-sided, with her mouth pulled over…What has happened to our Pretty Katie……I’m NOT bashing her, Mr.Pig Horse Creature Steven, who resides in the Lagoon…Just my opinion !!…she seems to need alot of attention and is NOT getting it.
Oh my God!! That episode of Eli Stone was the WORST! Katie can’t sing (she sounded like nails on a chalkboard), can’t dance, looks like she has anorexia and thinks acting is twisting her face into all kinds of strange contortions! She’s joke. No wonder Eli Stone was the third watched show of the nite. No one cares that she was on. It didn’t receive a bump in rating cause of Katie. As a matter of fact, less people watched it that night than did the week before!
Lets get real here: Katie Holmes is nothing but a C list actress married to a freak. She’s not a good mother either. She’s pretty much worthless.
She was adorable. They had a great connection and I hope she comes back.
She was very good in that episode. Many want to see her return including myself.
So the episode DIDN’T flop, #3? It MAY have but DIDN’T?
Greg Berlanti, co-creator of the show, begged Holmes to be on it because he already worked with her on Dawson’s Creek, #12.
No one stunt-casted anyone (or at least you can’t prove it) anywhere.
They didn’t or couldn’t get Anne Hathaway. They got Holmes and they seem to be happy with the casting.
Quit making excuses. People liked her in that episode. Admit it already.
Quit making excuses, #20. You have aright to be skeptical but it’s arrogant and foolish to claim they’re lying because you don’t like Holmes and that anyone who believes them are naive.
They don’t fame ***** though, #26.
Get a life, #27.
That makes no sense, #29. People wouldn’t and aren’t buying tickets because of how nice their daughter that’s unrelated to the show looks like.
And if they were using her, wouldn’t they use nice fall wear to attract customers?
Only an idiot would believe that, #39.
Clark- pleaseeee…..tomkat is what u see after term famewhoring in the dictionary. and they have to….PR can be very useful getting those broadway roles when you are in shortage of talent.
Comparing Nicole and Penelope (and Mimi) to Katie is like comparing a Lamborghini, Ferrari, and Rolls Royce to a Ford Escort.
AND
Substituting a real actress with Katie Homely is like using SALT when the recipe calls for SUGAR.
#53 sounds like a serial killer psycho maniac
Thanks to #25’s disgusting comment, I may never stop the vomit spewing from my mouth.
THAT was one of the many, many thoughts about TomKat I had NEVER embarked upon, for obvious, miserable reasons. Of course, the entire comment is a pure wish…everyone knows Tommy boy is a raging homo (alpha-manly? Please. I would have laughed, but I was busy retching because of the comment).
Now I’m disgusted so much, I’m donating my lunch to the stray cats behind the building. Forever.
Wow! She actually looks good for a change! But she and BFF Victoria Beckham need to grow their hair long.
hot and talented
I dont like the show but love Katie in it. I see Emmys and Oscar awards for this lady…..
:)
she’s ideal in Batman much better than Jakey poo’s sister,she’s fantastic in Broadway and now on Eli Stone.
Her career and personal life is so exciting
and her fashion adventures too
Thanks JJ for the video but I wonna see the full episode? I taped the wrong show.
chessa @ 10/23/2008 at 8:40 pm
Gee I guess that is why her performance in Batman was nominated for a Razzie award for worst supporting actress.
And the fact that attendance dropped by almost 15 percent after the opening reviews came in for All My Sons.
And the fact that Eli Stone lost almost half its audience by the end of the show.
And the fact that most of the fashion polls have her in the bottom 25 percent with her white jumpsuit fiasco coming in at the bottom.
Yep, she is a great actress and fashionista.
her version is so much better
than Marilyn Monroe
Comparing Nicole and Penelope (and Mimi) to Katie is like comparing a Lamborghini, Ferrari, and Rolls Royce to a Ford Escort.
http://www.nypost.com/pagesixmag/issues/20081019/Look+Week
Cruise and Holmes were nominated for Razzies only because of their personal lives, #64.
Why blame only Holmes’ for attendance dropping for her play and that episode?
And BEFORE that jumpsuit debacle?
Watching that video was excruciating.
Quite regal
Bruce Wayne @ 10/23/2008 at 10:37 pm
No Bruce, Katie was nominated for the razzie as worst supporting actress. I assume you are Creature/Clark etc. Don’t read into the nominations that it was because of their personal lives. They did get the razzie for worst tabloid couple!
Well, Holmes had the worst reviews over all, so why not blame her.
Before the jump suit, the fashion ratings depend on what she is wearing. Generally in her ratty jeans, rolled up jeans, jeans that make her thighs look big, etc. she gets lower than 25 percent. in her more sophisticated get ups like the pics above 85 percent or higher. BUT she rarely shows much class like today. So the ratings tend to be in the bottom quartile.
I was well aware in what categories they were nominated for, #70. It doesn;t change the fact that the razzies are idiotic and nominated them mostly for their scandalous year rather than the quality of their performances.
She didn’t have the worst reviews over all for her play and unless you take a poll, there’s no way of knowing that attendance is dropping simply because of that one actor in it.
Whatever. She doesn’t care what other people think and her fashion sense has been much more accalim than you suggest.
xoxoxo to KH
she is the real deal……
I’m sure Katie Holmes is a sweet person, but as an actress/singer/whatever, she’s awful.
Seriously does she have to be on here everyday…or perhaps she has her own photograph and sends in the pictures herself!!!
http://mylifeiscrap.com
I actually like this outfit , love the jacket.
I clicked the link to the “teeth” picture. Maybe she is getting veneers , or maybe it’s a doctored photo, I don’t know. I do know her teeth DID NOT look like that on Eli Stone.
As for the Eli Stone appearence , I think she did fine. The singing in the begining was a little harsh , but the rest of the episode I think she did fine.
DALE…I will meet you out back with my lunch and dinner and snacks also…No-one is that perfect and beautiful…GAG !!!!…..Tom is far from being a manly-man….AND what is that anyway ?? A man for a man ? LOL
SO true Bruce Wayne Nicole Kidman(Bewitched) was nominated for a Razzie that year too because Pres.Wilson of Razzie committee said he wants ratings and publicity if Tom,Katie and Kidman ever attended his ceremony…..
Razzies are a joke when many A listers and brilliant directors are nominated for publicity stunts by the committee like Kubrick,Godfather,DeNiro,and etc……
God bless TomKAT
Katie is getting glowing reviews on All My Sons and Eli Stone. Thanks to the Katie factor Eli got additional 4 episodes adding to their 13 order of episodes making that 17 already. She looks hot and brings the goods to everything she does.
Because of Katie the ratings decline was not bad. Usually shows after premieres do tank but with Katie instead of a 15 and 17 decline the show only plummeted 3%. Im banking no Katie next week the ratings will be much lower.
Sorry but there must be a reason why Katie is much more famous shopping or bringing little couture dressed Suri, because she is actually an overrated actress. I don’t find anything sexy nor attractive in her dancing, her voice is unbearable for my eardreams, and her whole performance is just dull. Talented???? I don’t think so. Look at Nicole Kidman, even if she is not a dancer nor a singer, she managed to glow and to give something worthy and decent in Moulin Rouge. Someone like Nicole Kidman IS talented. Not Katie.
