Katie Holmes: 30th Birthday Coming Soon!
Katie Holmes takes 2-year-old daughter Suri for a stroll in New York City in Tuesday.
Later this week, Tom Cruise has something “special” planned for Katie, who turns 30 on Thursday
“We’re gonna celebrate, I’ll be here in the morning with her,” Tom told Access Hollywood. “I’ve got some special things… that I have in store for her. It’s gonna be a great day for her.”
Tom and Katie will be celebrating her birthday early Thursday morning. That evening, he has the LA premiere of Valkyrie and she has her Broadway play, All My Sons.

can’t believe she’s not even 30 yet
I thought she was like 38 or something!
So sick of this self-promoting dysfunctional weird family!
Jared, despite your obsession (and pocket money from Tommy), it’s time to move on to something else, seriously!!!
There are other celebrities out there, no?
50th birthday*
yeah she actually looks older,
suri’s soo cute!
She is now known as the baby carrier.. Guess she never got over
carrying Suri around like an infant.. That probably explains them
holding her like this… Maybe Tom is giving Katie a chance to get
pregnant again…
Since when would anyone plan a party with Katie on Tom’s big night
knowing that she has to entertain every one..Why would he plan his
L.A premiere of his movie on her birthday..!

Hopefuly Tommy will buy her corrective shoes and a book on toilet training!
[☆I n F a m o u s☆]
dont be jealous because she’s got far more money than you.. and surely because she’s prettier than you!!
Please, no more Katie and Suri photos……talk about
overexposed…….enough is enough!!
awww, They both look so cute;love this mother/daughter pair. I saw pics of Katie at the Valkyrie after-party. She looked great!
Does Katie know how ridiculous she looks carrying Suri around wrapped in that blanket around NYC? Matilda Ledger — now that’s a normal kid. She walks on her own, doesn’t wear spring dresses in the winter, and has been photographed doing normal kid things - like riding a scooter.
Just curious has it been warmer in NYC?? by these photos you would think its summer-fall by the way they are dressed foe being in the middle of december
Suri is so cute! :-)
Adorable photos. That’s sweet about Tom. Thanks, Jared!

———————————————–
No its not warmer in NYC. It’s freezing!! Today we had snow and sleet coming down!! The weather is very cold.
I dunno why Katie can’t put shoes, a coat and warm clothes on her daughter. Also, she looks like she is about to celebrate her 50th birthday, not her 30th. She looks WORN OUT, USED AND ABUSED.
wow cant believe she is 30,,,i still remember her in dawsons creek and we had the same age…
i hope her birthday to be as beautiful as suri she is so cuteee
More like 50, the man sucked the youth and freshness out of her not to mention turning her into a robot.
suri is a cutie pie
TOM PROBABLY had to go to Nicole’s hotel first for info into what to get her for her birthday.. Since they both have COLD SORES at the same
time…Wonder how that happened??? Yes she doesn’ t like it when
she can’t hold Suri like a infant.. now that she is going to be a little girl..
Funny how they showed pictures of Tom and Katies wedding as their
relationship.. when there are 1 million of them in New York City…
What is the rush Tom getting to Los Angeles… what is Penelope
Cruz waiting for you ..
Katie looks tired, but she still looks her age. LMAO, at people who are saying she looks 50. If that’s what 50 looks like, I can’t wait!
BECKY SMITH @ 12/16/2008 at 6:14 pm wat are u blabbing on about, nothing makes sense in ur post!!!!!!!!! AWWWWWWWWWWW KH looks her usual self PALE AND TRAGIC
WTF IS WRONG WITH THIS WOMAN??? Why can’t she put a coat on that child? For that matter, why can’t she put a coat on herself? It was in the mid-30’s in NYC today and SNOWING!!
For the love ot God, let the child walk!!! She’s too big to carry and it appears that Katie doesn’t have the strength anymore.
I’ve always thought she was older. Oh well. Hope she has a great birthday
She should really put a coat on that child. She looks ridiculous carrying an almost 3 year old around in a blanket.
LOVE HER! BUT SHE NEEDS TO GROW HER HAIR OUT, LONG AND BEAUTIFUL LIKE IT USED TO BE!!
suri is just wrapped in a blanket (which itself is very odd with a 2 1/2 yr old)? it was freezing cold and snowing in ny today!!
happy 51 birthday kaite
Hey Mary # 9!
How old are you—-12?
FYI, I am prettier than Katie—–slouchy–bad posture–Holmes!! All right!!!
I am probably as well off as Katie—–if you don’t count the pocket money that little man Tommy hands out if Katie has been a good obedient girl.
Anything else?
Oy vei!!!!
OMG! She’s only 30? I thought she was older than that. She sure looks older not to mention pale and ready to fall over. Girl needs to eat a sandwich and get the hell away from that freak Cruise. Kids cute though. I just don’t understand why they carry her around like a baby with a blanket and all! Dress her right and let her walk you nutbags!!
Looks like it’s time for Katie to have another baby so that she can let little Suri grow up.
I am so confused. Is that really from Tuesday??? It’s been snowing off and on and very cold. Yesterday was 68, so that picture must be from Monday. Why would Katie being wearing a short sleeve sweater???? And is Suri not wearing shoes????? I’m sorry, but that child is very strange looking. My mom swears she’s Asian and had her eyes fixed, that’s why we didn’t see her til she was 3 months old. I’m starting to think the same thing!
happy birthday katie, meant for thursday
she looks pretty old, i like her but i wish she would change back 2 when she was cute
i wonder what suri is getting katie=]
If 50 looks this good, then it must be the new 30.
You know what? It’s a pity we don’t get to see the picture of all the envious, sour hearted people who come here to viciously bash Katie out of sheer, pointless cruelty. I bet they would all make a true gallery of horrors.
love her. hope she has a wonderful birthday!
Is that child japanese? I didn’t think she was adopted.
Suri looks like Tom’s girl now. What made you smile so sweetly, Suri?
Katie is lucky because it seems like no man in Hollywood bothers to marry his girlfriend nowadays.
suri is plain adorable. katie looks old for her age…but people are being way too harsh. just let her live her life! and christine…you have got to be kidding me. that is sick.
Maybe Katie clings to Suri and pretends she’s a little baby because she’s lonely in her marriage. Another baby wouldn’t fill that hole.
“Special things in store”? I wonder if it’s an oil and tune-up and if he’s going to wind up the crank in her back. Poor Katie.
A wonderful, caring man needs to step up to the plate and lure Katie away from that beast she is married to. If I heard she was cheating or even dumped Tom for another man, I would be happy for her.
look at this pic of “kate” herpes kissing suri as suri eats treasures she just just picked:
http://www.imagebam.com/image/f46bc720971226
I wonder what will happen if there is a blizzard . . .maybe then a coat may be needed.
HELLO!! WHY DON’T THEY DRESS FOR THE WEATHER???? I don’t get it! I live in Florida and I dress warmer than that! Why can’t they wear coats and a scarf??? A hat? I don’t care if her daughter doesn’t like to wear pants, if it’s that cold…she WILL wear it. Lame. They are lame and Suri is a freaky looking kid.
wtf is with them friggen BLANKETS she is not a BABY, she is nearly 3 years old!
I think the only one she feels safe and loved with is Suri. She holds on to her so tightly as to channel all her lonliness and unhappiness out of herself by embracing her child. She may look tired but I think she is happy in NY with her daughter away from TC and the Scientologists in Calif. She probably doesn’t even want to return to the 35 room mansion that is occupied by Tom and his relatives. You just don’t see her and TC like they used to be smiling and kissing for the paps. Now you see her smiling and kissing her daughter instead.
I’d bet she loves being away from the cult leaders in LA.
Tom will lose this one too, all his wives have left over religion. The man is an idiot.
beautiful mom and baby
They’re so beautiful,down to earth and very happy!
Both are precious and Im so proud of Tom.
Thanks JJ for all their threads.
Cruise family…..patriots
jealous haters…pinheads
…` why’s this ;douche-bag posting comments under my *name*?!? and got `******** believing it and responding to them?! LMBAO

… comments have none of my swag.

suri rocks - my dcikrider eats cokc.
This baby is just a doll. Love her and Katie is just a timeless beauty. So excited for her Miu Miu ad. She is just plain cool, talented,devoted to her family and a beauty on the inside.
Kat-Liter looks like crap as usual.
=] cutiepatooties
I truly love this family but I beg the paparazzis to leave them alone and let them be with their private family affairs.
Happy BDay Katie & God bless.
Where did time go? Now I feel old and Katie is all woman.
Alright enough…If my child or grandchild was in the public like this cute little Suri is, by God you can beleive she/he would be carried also…come on people…all those people trying to get close to her and her mom, I would be so afraid of kidnapping, or even just being pushed down on the ground…as far as the blanket, who cares..you should not. One of my daughters has a blanket & she will give it up when she wants. She is MUCH older than Suri..College in fact, & the blanket (what is left of it) stays in her pillow case. We all have something that makes us feel safe, warm, good all over..I have a quilt, older than Katie, wholes big enough for a small child to crawl through and I LOVE it…get over your nasty notes & if you do not want to see Suri or Katie DO NOT COME TO THIS WEB SITE….
Haters your reward is full in hell…
He didn’t plan the LA premiere on her birthday, #6.
This ‘carrying’ complaint is really stupid.
Don’t compare kids, #12. Let the parents raise their kids that way they see fit.
Let Holmes decide if she’s too big to carry her, #24.
That comment made no sense, #32.
You and your mom are really stupid them #33.
She IS a little baby, #40!
She already wears warm clothes #44 and #45. Apparently, Holmes doesn’t feel her kid needed a coat today and the kid herself didn’t or ever seem to mind.
#60
You need to have your head examined. You don’t really think people are going to hell because we don’t fall all over Katie Holmes, do you? That’s SICK. You’re SICK for even saying something like that. You’re a bigger hater than anyone else here!!
#59
Could you get a grip? Nobody cares about your kids or your life. We’re here to talk about a crazy celebrity who decided to be a PR wh*ore. We all have a right to be here and don’t need you telling us not to visit the site. Deal with it. Most people can’t stand Katie Holmes or Tom Cruise. We come here to talk about them just like you do. Don’t like the comments? Take your own advice and STAY AWAY.
PRECIOUS
beautiful family…Katie is celebrating the same birthday w/ Pitt and Spielberg
When was the last time Katie saw her parents?
Hey #49, #50, #51, and #52, I’m getiing some crazy deja-vu.
Suri is very cute- very exotic looking and I think the prettiest of the celeb tots.
this pic of mrs scientology you said “looked great”, i don’t even see what you mean with “looked great”.
FOR ME SHE’S LOOKING LIKE CLOWN.
http://www.scandalist.com/files/gallery/valkyrie-premiere-12-16-08/valkyriepremiere10.jpg
Who gives a sh*t about this below average hack actress.
Number 68: Homely looks clownish and CRAZY in that picture!
Secondly, in the main pic above, she looks out of it! Homely needs to leave New York and return and diappear back to Ohio.
Homely is so pathetic and S U C K S bigtime.
FOR GOODNESS SAKE LET THE CHILD WALK ON HER OWN AND PUT A COAT ON HER IN THIS COLD WEATHER!
Suri looks asian for sure, she’s beautiful!
There’s no way that kid is only 2 years old.
Hey, I’m Asian and Suri doesn’t look like one of us. She’s obviously Caucasian, though whether Tom is her biological father may be disputed. But you know, it is not a sin to conceive in some way other than the classic. Lots of people have fertility issues. Luckily, there are different ways to bring a child into your life. However they did it, it’s no one’s business but the parents’, and no matter how a child came into the family the people who raise that child are his/her parents. Though I’d like to see Tom gain some humility and Scientology is whacko (aren’t all religions? If someone came to you today and said he was the son of God, would you follow him?) he seems to be someone who tries hard, who tries to be gracious to his public, is a devoted father. If there are issues in their marriage, I doubt it is any worse than most marriage with their ups and downs. What will count is how they work through those issues. By the way, carrying your child is not a sin either and will not damage him/her–it’s security and love for a little kid surrounded by screaming paps/public.
AWWW!! Looks like Katie really likes being a mommy. That’s so sweet!
Suri really belongs to Jon and Kate Gosselin. Jon and Kate plus Nine didn’t rhyme, so they gave her to Katie and Tom to raise !!
I think Katie tries to keep the blanket around Suri but she keeps pulling it down such a cutey
I agree that she holds her close for security. Yet, they could slip in and out without so much attention. YOU KNOW they could get a secret entrance. Tom’s PR rescue plan must require frequent exposure with him keeping his mouth shut most of the time. He had to restrain himself on the Today show… you could feel him wanting to spill his gut!!!! Kept talking over Lauer.
LOL, ” MR.BLONDE “….Everyone is ALWAYS concerned over Katie’s welfare, when she carries Suri……….( AGREE )…..It is ALWAYS the same comments time after time after time after time after time….” Katie is pimping “…..” Katie is carring the bratty child “……” Katie has a child that acts ” fake “…..THAT one is my favorite….FAKE?….How does a 2.5 year old ACT fake?……..I carry BOTH my granddaughters ( ages 4 and 21 months ) when I can, and when we are out..They love it !!!!….Plus, I can move a little more quickly, and keep up with them….They are BOTH lightweight, and they BOTH have their special blankets and toys with them………
I don’t understand the public’s fascination with this child, and how she is being raised……..I would HATE that kind of scrutinization every time I had ours out in public……..What WOULD any of you do any different if you were Katie?…..And don’t say ” leave by a side door”, OR ” leave through the garage”….OR, ” i would NOT pimp out my child “…..Suri HAS to come out in public…That is ridiculous…all the other celebrities bring their children out….The Cruise’s just happen to be the focus of interest, outside of the Jolie-pitts…..
Well, I’m ready to be bashed and hated on because of my comments…..Do NOT expect anyone to agree with me, with so many haters on this site….BUT, that is ok, and FUNNY….who cares?….I will always take up for the children…….Have a Merry Christmas though!!!!
No coat in NYC at xmas……….nice parenting…….NOT.
When is childrens aid going to step in?! If you saw someone who wasn’t famous in NYC like this, wouldn’t you be appalled?
The cult of scientology lets kids do anything they want. So if this stupid kid doesn’t want a coat, they let her go without.
That is one irresponsible cult, and stupid, horrible parents for allowing it.
“The cult of scientology lets kids do anything they want. So if this stupid kid doesn’t want a coat, they let her go without.”
i believe parenting is all about taking grounds, didn’t NICOLE have to raise her kids under d watchful eye of SCEINOS (altho she never became a member) but there was never a time they were over exposed or allowed to walk aroud during the winter season without their coats on, even till date, because she recognised her role as the parent and not some WACKY SCEINOS. So either KH is so dumb and stupid to an extent of letting the whole CELEB-TOT get in her head therefore over exposing her child or she’s not as strong as her MANIACAL FANS claim cos we’ve had loads of them on this board claiming “KATIE STANDS UP TO TOM MORE THAN NICOLE EVER DID” if we have to judge by pics well i guess we all know who is STRONGER and STOOD UP for herself when it concerned her kids
#57… Have you heard the saying “imitation is the best form of flattery”? …… next time though, maybe you should try to be original and come up with your own name…
I’m curious.. how many celebrities have been to see the nutcracker and have allowed a photographer back stage with them to be photographed? How many celebrities have been to FAO (toy store) shopping and have allowed a photographer inside to take pictures? These types of things aren’t a normal, public outing… it is parents purposely exposing their child to the media.. for whatever their reasons may be.
VICTORIA:
While I agree with many of your points–like the coat, the blanket etc. I do believe they are exposing that child to the paps deliberately–which in my mind is pimping her out for photo ops.
Having worked in the media where we would have big name stars come in for interviews–many of them would ask us to take them in the back way or if they met our interviewers elsewhere–they’d go in the back way or easily evade the paps.
Anyone who works in the media, security etc., in NYC knows there are ways for the very famous to enter and exit privately.
You speak of the Jolie-Pitts. You rarely see good pictures of the kids inside a store or place. They are usually taken wiht a long distance lens as they are often fuzzy.
So how did the paps get such clear pictures of Suri in FAO Schwarts or at the Nutcracker? At one point after the divorce Bella and Connor lived with Nicole in NYC–you didn’t see the kids photographed ad nauseum and there was plenty of interest in the two kids after the divorce. Nicole guarded their privacy.
If Suri looked comfortable with the cameras and flashes and shouting like the Jolie Pitt children generally do or Violet Affleck, Matilda Ledger and the rest of the famous kiddos–I don’t think her being “papped” out would bother folks half as much. But she doesn’t. She often looks upset, distressed, etc. Which does make the general public wonder why Tom and Katie would subject her to this day after day.
LA is crawling with paps yet you rarely see Suri. I have got to believe Tom and Katie are media savvy enough that they could pull off the same non-exposure in NYC. I don’t think they want to. It is one thing to see Suri occasionally, it is another to see her day-after-day.
Remember that these people are ACTORS. All the world is a stage for these artistic but mentally challenged individuals. Suri, like so many other actors kids, is just a prop to her parents. She is like a Chanel purse, a fashion accessory. Why do you thing Katie has to dress her up in such finery day after day after day!! The daily walk is a thrill for Mom. It is another role to play and get approval. The real tragedy it that Suri is going to grow up thinking she is a Queen and all the little people are on this earth to look at her and adore her. Hopefully she will become as actress type like her mom, because God knows she won’t be able to do anything else but sell her image, like her parents are teaching her to do.
Why not let her stay at home and wear her fuzzy jamies all day. Make hot chocolate, string popcorn, learn to make her bed and pick up her toys, get her a hamster, teach her routines and rules. Sing songs with grandma.. I don’t know what Katie is trying to proof. The poor woman is exhausted and trying to be all things to everyone, At the end of rehearsals and shows we see you out and about at all hours of the day and night. GO HOME!! Be rested and well, Meditate and be quiet for awhile. Teach Suri to seek peace, not this circus of a llife!
Merry Chrismas
LOL @ #29 AND HAPPY 51
A few days ago, #65.
It was just a bad picture, #68.
You’re right, #72. She’s 2 years and 8 months old.
Right, #73.
Child Protective Services and the like aren’t stupid enough to bother those two good parents, #79.
They don’t let her rule the roost. Don’t believe everything you read.
If they offend you so much, go do something rather than whine and moan on a forum, #81 and #82.
Why does everyone keep saying that crap about LA? Suri Crusie is photographed just as much there as she is in NY.
Were they even backstage at the nutcracker? That thing about the stores isn’t true.
A simple trip to the archives would disprove all those points you made.
Who says they don’t already do that, #83? Don’t make silly assumptions on how people
sooo adorable this 2
They are so happy and classy as ever. Haters trasy as ever. Say no more.
Tom is so lucky to have Katie and Suri. All his family ofcourse.
#82 Dancer: I agree with your comment.
Dancer #82, I also agree with you!
I have wondered why Katie does not seem interested in her beautiful new home? (my personal observation). Didn’t they just move in this past spring? If that was my home I would never want to leave! Maybe someone can fill me in about that?!
Mr. Blonde @ 12/17/2008 at 6:29 pm
Well Mr. Blonde I was answering Victoria.
However, having worked in the media, I know they could be more private and move more privately around NYC. They choose not to. And in doing so they open themselves for criticism sine Suri looks distressed.
And by the way in case you want to, as usual, deride my experience in working in the media–I’ve close to 30 years of experience at radio stations, television stations, and a film studio. When I say BIG names–I mean BIG names. They managed to avoid paps with their kids and without their kids.
AND Mr. Blonde–you do not see pictures of SURI out in LA on a daily basis. If so, do provide us all with links. If you can remember back that far before NYC–the rags would often publish titles like “WHERE’s SURI?–Been weeks since we’ve seen her.” So where was she? Trapped at home with the crazy scientologists? Or perhaps, just perhaps, Tom and Katie move around LA without the paps following them because the take the back ways, the private entrances etc.
Use your brain.
If suri were my claim to fame and money, I’d hold onto her pretty tight too. (And I can’t stand the way she keeps kissing her head.)
She’s living in NY for the moment and she was there for Thanksgiving, #90.
Of course you worked in the media, #91. That’s just convenient. Well then, don’t you have something better to do than waste your time here.
Use your brain. You sound like a James Bond movie.
A simple trip to the archives would show that she’s seen in LA much. Plus, there was a time earlier this year when Suri Cruise disappeared while in NY.
Only critics would find something wrong in a mother kissing her daughter’s forehead, #92. Holmes is famous enough without her daughter so that ‘claim to fame and money’ diss is wrong.
Mr. Blonde, I’m really sorry you don’t believe me–i.e., working in the media. But I have. And I’ve seen first hand folks like Springsteen, McCartney, and Oprah move around without the paps following them. I’m sure that Tom and Katie can too.
And I certainly don’t waste as much time here as you do. I don’t answer every post nor do I read every post and formulate an answer. I also read a thousand words a minute (tested Mr. Blonde) and type over 100 words per minute (again tested Mr. Blonde). So in the short time it takes me to skim the posts and type a reply, you are probably still reading the first ten posts and formulating your replies.
The truth is you don’t want to believe the Cruises can find alternatives to pimping out Suri. Your psyche can’t deal with the fact that your idols might be less than perfect. Which includes your denial of Tom having plastic surgery although if you were to go back and check the early blog threads of Jared and compare his pictures to now–well it is perfectly obvious to anyone who has an open mind.
You just keep your ego and psyche in denial. Tom and Katie obviously need your support. Valkyrie is tanking big time with the reviews and will probably tank at the box office as the decision to release the film on the date chosen was really stupid. YOu said in a previous post that it wasn’t expected to garner any awards. Haha. That is why they released the movie in 2008 on the date they did instead of moving it to 2009. They were sure it would get awards!
To #93 (Mr Blonde):
Relax about all of this. Of course we are critics-that is why we are on this blog. Looking at these pictures and commenting is fun.
And-while I admire your idealistic view, don’t be naiive to business of hollywood.
Happy Holidays
First of all, of course Katie has to carry Suri. She’s surrounded by hundreds oh photographers. It would be way to dangerous to let her walk by herself. Secondly, Suri needs a blanket to shield her eyes from the flashing bulbs. And anyways, why can’t a 3 year old carry a blanket? That seems perfectly fine to me. Maybe instead of criticising, you should think about the situation and have some sympathy. Katie Holmes is beautiful and no one should say otherwise. Ever think she’s not wearing shoes because she’s a normal little 3 yr old. Many 3 year olds will throw tantrums about not wearing something. Stop looking at everything in such a negative light! It’s not like Katie doesn’t have the money to put shoes on her child, and it’s not like she never wears shoes. One day she happened to not wear shoes and it’s nothing to fret about.
AGREE ” JENNY “….We ALL need to have some tolerance over each other’s opinions…..Good Lord, that is all they are….I also saw the picture ( above ) ( number # 43 had it ), and Suri was NOT ” eating a treasure she just had found ” …….her little finger was just AT her mouth, but NOT IN HER MOUTH……Let’s don’t make her out to be a nasty child……….There is NOTHING wrong with Katie kissing her daughter….So what if she has a cold sore?……The weather is cold and dry…..Everyone, ( I do ) at some point gets cracked and dry lips…..Look at how often she has to be made-up for her play, only to wipe it off again…..Then do her OWN make-up at home….That is hard on a face……Let’s quit judging her since we don’t know ANYTHING!!!
I believe you…for now, #94. I just find it unbelievable that NO set of photos of TomKat is veer spontaneous despite them being so incredibly famous in an incredibly famous city.
I don’t answer every post, nor do I read every post post and formulate an answer either.
Don’t psychoanalyze me. You don’t know me at all. They’re not my idols and I can swallow the bad as well as the good.
You’re one of those idiots who believe in this new plastic surgery rumor?
Yes Man was released during the holidays and no one was expecting Oscars. What foolish logic. It’s just a release date.
I’m not naive and I find it sickening that anyone could find it fun to nit-pick and find reasons to call people you’ve never met bad parents, #95.
