I was just getting into the groove of embracing the Cruise family, thanks mostly to Suri's cuteness, in all its inherent quirkiness (that is the word I'm using, yes), but the latest issue of Us Weekly is saying that all is not happy in the actors' household. The story claims, among other things, that Tom's controlling ways are getting to Katie, driving her to tearful late night calls with her good friend Posh.
Apparently, the Beckhams have their own set of gripes about Tom, stemming from his aggressively urging the couple to join Scientology when they move to the states. This isn't the first time that Tom has pressured David and Victoria to study the religion, but, if this Us article is to be believed, Tom's actions are bordering on scary. Says a source, "Not too long ago, Tom left 18 messages in one hour to get them to join the church."
While this sounds like a bit of an exaggeration on someone's part, Tom is obviously a driven and determined man. Hopefully, though, he can shift his focus from converting his good friends and instead just excel at the one thing we really want him to get back to -- his movie career. Considering he's got some exciting new projects in the works, that shouldn't be too hard of a request.
Carmen showed up to the London premiere of her new movie, I Want Candy, all decked out in a fabulous teal dress only to make a wardrobe change for the after party. Carmen may play a porn star in the film, but off the screen her love life has been pretty quiet recently. In fact, just about the only rumors of romance around Carmen these days are about her good friendship with Joan Jett. Word is that Carmen and Joan are set to attend the annual lesbian convention in Palm Springs next weekend where Carmen will "drop a huge bomb." While we certainly don't think that Carmen is gearing up for that announcement, it's great that she has such a good sense of humor about the rumors. We can't wait to hear what she has to say!

Adam Brody may be famous for playing a scrawny indie kid who would rather listen to the new Modest Mouse than exchange in fisticuffs, but in real life Adam was spotted getting his boxing class on in LA this week. That was a mouthful. How about this: Adam's looking pretty hot these days, no? I mean, other than the whole wearing black socks (what, the argyle in the wash?) to work out thing. If R-Bils was still around (and not too busy lunching with others) she would totally make sure her boy had some nice clean athletic socks to wear. Sigh.
Lindsay Lohan obviously does a fine job of drawing media attention on her own, but it looks like she's getting a little competition from Dina. In what we can only think of as an ill-thought out move, Harper's decided to devote an entire article in its most recent issue to LL's mother/manager/self-proclaimed "sister." Needless to say, Dina didn't hold back. Here are highlights:
It's a little scary to see how jaded Dina Lohan really is when it comes to her daughter - did she really just admit to giving her Lindsay painkillers? Perhaps Dina should spend less time tanning/clubbing/doing sexy photo shoots and spend a little more time being the mother that Lindsay (and her three siblings) obviously need.
We knew Kate was changing things up for her role in the upcoming film Winged Creatures, but we didn't realize it included such a drastic dye job. From the looks of it she's playing a diner waitress in the movie -- a far cry from her ass-kicking Underworld days! We can't wait to see what Kate has in store next, though we gotta say we hope she returns to her natural gorgeous brown locks soon. Something about Kate as a blonde just isn't sitting right!

Nicole Richie continues to be plagued by health issues on the set of The Simple Life. A few weeks back it was dehydration that took down the diminutive starlet, but it seems like she still can't stay on her two feet. Sources are saying that she has "had trouble walking and speaking clearly on set." Then last week she reportedly collapsed on location in Malibu and had to retire to her trailer for the remainder of the day. Among others, this behavior apparently isn't going over so well with her co-star Paris. Now, Nicole's rep is saying that Nic suffers from hypoglycemia which can cause dizzyness, fainting and other symptoms when blood sugar gets too low. Hopefully now that she's got a diagnosis, the starlet can get herself eating a little more often and avoid any other health scares!
Isla Fisher certainly looked the part of the sexy siren at the premiere of her new film The Lookout last night. Her fiance, Sacha Baron Cohen, was also on hand, but managed to elude photographers and let Isla shine on her big night. Rather than stay home and watch Dirt, Courteney was out on the red carpet too, perhaps the girls stayed in touch after the Borat premiere? Unfortunately it looks like the film's leading man, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, looks like he had a bit of an accident before the big night.
The thriller film stars Joseph as a mentally impaired janitor who is sucked into a bank heist. Isla plays his bad girl love interest, which is a little different than her hilarious character in Wedding Crashers, but we're sure she was up for the task.

Our (okay, my) prayers have been answered: Mary-Kate's hair color disaster has been fixed and, for once, her locks look healthy. Plus, it looks like she's leaving the salon with some Kerastase products, so that hair situation may finally be under control. Sure, she's wearing what is probably a size small sweater as a dress and enormous bondage-y shoes, but there's nothing outwardly crazy here! Honestly though, it warms my heart to see her not hiding as much; perhaps she's getting a little more confident with herself these days.
