Finding trustworthy mates is a difficult
task for many, but when you're a megastar like Robert Pattinson it becomes an
even larger challenge.
Just days before news broke about his
girlfriend Kristen Stewart's affair with "Snow White and the Huntsman" director
Rupert Sanders, the 26-year-old actor sat down for a candid interview about the
difficulties that accompany stardom.
Technology plays a major role in the
invasion of celebrity privacy and the "Twilight" superstar said, "I wish this
(Twilight) had happened 12 years ago, before camera phones and website TMZ.
Then it would have been amazing," adding, "being a successful actor... if you
just had the good side of fame it would have been unbelievable."
Robert went on to explain, "Now actors
are the most conservative people in the world because you can't do anything.
Literally,you can't do anything at all. You can't trust anyone because it all
becomes part of your career."
Since his 22-year-old lady cheated,
Pattinson has yet to face the media. That is about to change as premieres and
promotions for his upcoming films are quickly approaching.
Suri is everyone’s favorite fashionista,
but the 6-year-old is about to get a huge culture shock! Mom Katie doesn’t want
her daughter receiving freebies and wearing designer duds anymore! Read the
shocking details.
Suri Cruise has been known to rock some
of the latest styles and beauty trends — and she’s only six years old! However,
all of that is about to change now that Suri is living in New York with her mom,
Katie Holmes, and attending private school.
Apparently, Katie doesn’t want her
daughter to sport the high heels, pricey clothes, and lipstick that he is often
spotted wearing.
“Katie has been returning unsolicited
gifts and loans from designers for Suri since she arrived in New York,” a source
told Reveal magazine.
“She’s issued instructions to remove Suri
from all freebie lists. She’s also put the word out in LA to stop any mini-me
diva products being sent her way.”
Even more, the source claims that Suri’s
glamorous lifestyle was all Tom Cruise‘s idea, and Katie just wants her daughter
to have a normal childhood.
“Tom loved to spoil Suri and indulge her,
but Katie has other ideas,” the source explained.
It seems this new life in New York will
be much different for Suri than before!
With his divorce from Katie just settled,
Tom is focused on spending time with Suri.
There has been much speculation
surrounding the custody arrangement in Tom Cruise‘s divorce from Katie Holmes,
with most reports indicating that Katie has been granted primary custody over
their six-year-old daughter, Suri. While that may be true, a new report says
that Tom is planning to see Suri very soon.
According to E! News, a source close to
Tom says that the 50-year-old actor hopes to see his daughter as soon as he’s
finished shooting in Mammoth Lakes, California, which could be as soon as this
weekend.
“As soon as he is done shooting he will
arrange to see Suri. If he wasn’t shooting up in the mountains, I am sure he
already would be with her,” the source says.
The source also provided information
regarding the custody arrangement, saying that Tom and Katie’s plan for
visitation is “flexible” and “all set out” in the agreement. The source
acknowledged that Katie, 33, has primary physical custody of Suri, but that
“[Tom's] plan is to see Suri very, very often. He loves her dearly and is a
normal parent.”
What do you think, HollywoodLifers? Are
YOU surprised that Tom will be able to see Suri so soon?
Tom Cruise was back on the set of
Oblivion in Mammoth Lakes, CA, yesterday. He's been hard at work on the film
since settling his divorce from Katie Holmes this Monday. It looks like he's
been in good spirits despite the family drama and was even seen smiling and
laughing with colleagues in recent days.
Tom got another boost during production
when his son, Connor, stopped by to visit him between takes. Katie Holmes,
meanwhile, has had her mom, Kathleen, and Suri by her side on the East Coast.
Katie, Kathleen, and Suri stopped by the Central Park Zoo just yesterday and
were likewise looking happy as they checked out the animals.
Although Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes
agreed to keep the details of their divorce settlement under wraps, details have
started to emerge. The most important one: the battle over their 6-year-old
daughter Suri, of whom the actress requested sole custody in her June 29 filing.
According to People magazine, both Cruise and Holmes agreed that Suri “should
live primarily with her mother in New York City with generous visitation by her
father.” Adds a source, “They both love their daughter and Tom thinks she should
be with her mother … Neither one of them wanted this to be hashed out in
public."
Ever since Holmes, 33, surprised Cruise
with divorce papers just days before his 50th birthday, Suri has been spotted
with her mother all over Manhattan. The two, who moved out of the “Rock of Ages”
star’s East Village home and now live in a new three-bedroom apartment in the
Chelsea neighborhood, have visited museums, grabbed lunch with friends, and gone
out for ice cream together. Although Suri has not seen her father since he’s
been filming in Iceland, she does reportedly talk to him on the phone every day.
People also reports that she will be enrolled in a private school in the city
come this fall.
Although she won the war for Suri, Holmes
did not get much in the money battle with Cruise, according to the LA Times. The
former “Dawson’s Creek” actress will not get “any significant money or property”
due to their prenup, a source tells the newspaper. Holmes, the source adds, “was
never after money but wanted to protect her daughter.”
Earlier on Monday, there were reports
that Holmes wanted to banish Scientology from Suri’s life and also wanted a
nanny of her choosing to accompany Suri at all times during visits with her
father, but her lawyer warns that you shouldn’t believe everything you read.
"There are numerous inaccuracies in the reports regarding the purported contents
of the agreement reached between the parties," Jonathan Wolfe said in a
statement. "The agreement is confidential and its terms will not be
disclosed."
Katie Holmes has not only reclaimed her
life now that she's filed for divorce from Tom Cruise – she's also taking back
her name. Ever since the two first got together in 2005, the “Mission
Impossible” star has insisted on referring to his wife as "Kate," even though
neither her friends nor her family has ever called her that. And it clearly was
a name Holmes herself did not identify with because she never went by it
professionally, despite her husband's consistent use of it every time he
mentioned her publicly. In fact, in her statement announcing the split, Holmes'
lawyer said, “This is a personal and private matter for Katie and her family."
Cruise's response? "Kate has filed for divorce."
It first began in April 2006, when
Holmes, now 33, was still pregnant with Suri, but not yet married to Cruise.
During an interview with All Headline News, he explained, "Katie is a young
girl’s name. Her name is Kate now – she’s a child-bearing woman." At the time,
it was also reported that Holmes had agreed upon the name change "after
discussing it with Tom" and as a result “all friends and family now call her
Kate.”
The only person to publicly call the
former "Dawson’s Creek" star the name that Cruise, 50, preferred was his
longtime friend Brooke Shields, who was invited to the couple’s lavish wedding
in a move that seemed like an attempt to extend an olive branch. Remember when
Cruise called her out for "drug use after she admitted she used anti-depressants
to battle postpartum depression following the birth of her first daughter? (He
said she should have simply taken vitamins). “Kate called me herself to invite
us to the wedding," Shields said at the time. “It would have felt like a slap to
say no."
As much as Cruise pushed “Kate,” it just
didn’t stick, not just in her personal life, but her professional one as well.
On every movie poster for the films she has made since getting together with
Cruise, she has been billed as “Katie Holmes.” The same goes for all the covers
of the fashion magazines she has graced: They, too, spell out "Katie
Holmes."
By filing for divorce, Katie is also
shedding another unwanted name: Mrs. Tom Cruise.
Showing up for an elegant private affair,
Whitney Houston was spotted at the Hotel Grand du Cap-Ferrat in
Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferra, France on Monday evening.
During the intimate concert, the “I Look To You” singer belted out several of her famous songs while donning a beautiful
white gown.
Coming up this weekend, Ms Houston is set
to attend Saturday’s Ball on the Mall in Washington D.C., but will be giving her
vocals a rest and putting on her dancing shoes.
The annual Ball on the Mall is a black
tie dance that benefits the Trust for the National Mall and is held under a tent
where guests dance to a swinging orchestra after dinner.
