I was really hoping that somehow Katie Holmes would put her foot down and that Suri would end up going to a nice normal rich person private school. Oh, or to really make a statement, how about a public school. Instead though, Suri is being shipped off each school day to the Will Smith & Jada Pinkett Smith Scientology school. Sure, they might say it is not, but face it, it is. What other kindergarten class in the entire universe do you know that has a class called Study Technology. Yeah. The school has Scientology teachers and today I just feel really sad for Suri. Instead of recess she can look forward to auditing and instead of summer vacation she can look forward to three months with the SeaOrg for no pay. I do hope that when Tom & Katie finally split that she gets Suri. Can you imagine her never getting to see Suri again?
Weak weak Katie........
ReplyDeleteWay to stand up for your kid Katie, do what is best for HER.
ReplyDeleteSuri is gonna have a KICKASS memoir one day. I cannot WAIT.
ReplyDeleteKinda like Nicole & Connor & Isabella, huh?I think it's along the lines of extortion - do it or don't see your kid(s) again. SHAME!!!!
ReplyDelete@Ida: after years and years of extensive, expensive therapy. I hope she makes it.
ReplyDeleteOther than the scientology stuff these schools teach - do they do a good job of teaching the basic stuff? You know, reading, writing, math, etc. Do kids in these schools make it into college? Just curious.
ReplyDeleteNope. If she leaves she will never see that kid again. When Tom tires of her and kicks her out, she will certainly never see her. Except of course when Tom and his next beard pimp her out. The claws have encircled her and wont let go now. I really do not think there is any hope.
ReplyDelete^pimp her out to the paps, I meant to say.
ReplyDeleteIs it me, or does Suri look sorta like she's be a handful (i.e.; a heinous brat)? I knew a kid who always had her same expression - he was spoiled rotten and would sit in the corner at my daughter's birthday parties, sulking. Years later, he took a stick and beat his friend to death for no reason in particular - just because. Though it was shocking, it really wasn't to anyone who'd known him growing up.
ReplyDeleteI'm not saying Suri is going to grow up and kill someone, but she has already has that jaded look that I'd noticed in that kid at such a young age. It creeps me out.
Forgive the typos - and the entire post, really.
ReplyDeleteIt's said the child is already a major monster so it will be interesting ...
ReplyDeleteThink when all these celebrity children grown up to take their proper place in Hollywood...because what else can they do...they need big money and a lot of downtime..
The Smiths, Jolie-Pitts, Suri and a list of others...
I doubt many will go on for higher education since they already know everything.
@Megley -- Honestly, I'd say Katie will be the one more in need of therapeutic assistance after her contract is up! Katie's a demure little Stepford Bride, but Suri sort of gives off vibes that she's already NOT the one. She's an Aries (I'm sort of ashamed that I know this). They're not easily bossed around by ANYone. Witness the public tantrums, the refusal to wear sensible outerwear, the defiant little expressions, etc, etc.
ReplyDeleteI get the feeling that Katie really *is* a protective mom, though, and that she'll finally get the hell out once Suri is forced to participate in auditing...or whatever the hell they force Scichildren to do.
It's also interesting to me how Tom is basically King of the Scientologists, but his two previous wives were raised devoutly Catholic. You'd think the whole indoctrination process would be easier if he had just found himself a nice lil' Agnostic.
*that should say his current wife and his previous wife. I have no idea if Mimi Rogers practices a particular faith.
ReplyDeleteIda, I think Mimi is the one who introduced him to Scientology.
ReplyDeleteMimi brought Tom into "The Church"
ReplyDelete^^^OOOOH. THAT is juicy.
ReplyDelete@MadLyb, she gives off the "brat" vibe to me too.
ReplyDeleteThis Scientology shit is just scary! My boss just left for a month of auditing in Florida. This is the third such trip in the last 2 years. While it's nice when she's gone she comes back creepier and creepier (and if you knew her you would know exactly how bad that was). She is also a practicing Catholic and very inolved in the church - which just seems to be the strangest thing of all.
ReplyDeleteNot sure at what age they start auditing but I wouldn't be surprised if Suri's already started it.
ReplyDeleteNo way in hell will Katie get custody when the contract is up.
At least Suri will be around other little brain washed kids and not just home schooled by Tiny Tom's sisters.
funniest blog ever: surisburnbook.tumbler.com
ReplyDeleteThere is a video where she yells at the paps. It seems to come natural to her to demand things from adults. Too natural.
I also think she's a brat. And I think she'll DEFINITELY need lots of therapy. They both will. They already need it.
ReplyDeleteTerri- what a funny site!
ReplyDeleteWhy won't Katie get custody ? Toms not Suri's biological father....
ReplyDeleteExcuse me--look at Suri's lipstick!!
ReplyDelete@ Figgy
ReplyDeleteThat was the first thing I noticed too, was her lipstick. Creepy! I mean it's okay if a kid is playing dress up but out in public???
Honestly everyone thinks that Katie is going to divorce Tom and skip off with Suri. The only was Katie is getting away from Tom is if she leaves Suri behind. And besides now that Suri is getting schooled in Scientology, if Katie did decide to go and tried to take Suri, Suri would just be brainwashed and want to stay with Tom anyway.
Not seeing a happy ending to all of this no matter what plays out.
My mom said we have a way distant cousin that married into scientology and they have to treat their kids like adults. They do not tell them what to do, they have and get anything they want. They are taught they are little adults in a childs' body and to treat them as such.
ReplyDeleteHence Suri still drinking out of a bottle at 5 and her clothing choices. Total brats, they're rotten with no supervision or rules.
RenoBlondee, I've heard that too.
ReplyDeleteMadLyb - I agree. Something about that kid ain't right.
ReplyDeleteSuri looks like a HUUUUUGE brat to me. She always has. And if you've ever seen video of her, she acts like the most entitled, spoiled little snot ever. But that's Scientology -- basically, they think that children are just small adults and should be allowed to do anything they want, hence the makeup, inappropriate clothes and shoes, still using a bottle and a blankie, never brushing her hair, etc. I guess it's a pretty sweet gig as a kid, but once they grow up and realize that the world doesn't owe them anything, it's gotta be hard. I foresee bad, bad stuff in Suri's future.
ReplyDeleteand no, the Scientology school doesn't really teach the normal stuff. At least, not to the extent of "normal" schools. There's a lot of learning about L. Ron and how to identify your thetans and how we're all descended from aliens and shit like that. It's ridiculous. I can't believe the state licensed this place.
And what the HELL is going on with Katie and those damn ugly booties?!?!
Ida, are you sure she's an Aries? Wasn't there a mystery about when she was born, how far along Katie was, etc.?
ReplyDeleteI've never thought Suri was quite right. First I thought she looked like Tom's cousin - Mapother(?) but as she gets older, a look in her eye, there's something.
Katie should have had dinner with Nicole before she ever went into this agreement. I hope Nicole tells her story one day. I bet it's a whopper.
@Elizabeth -- I'm positive! I *think* she was even born the same day as Brooke Shields' kid, which was ironic considering how Brooke and Tom had that feud over medication to treat post-partum depression. Because, you know, Tom would know what *that's* like and all...
ReplyDelete@Elizabeth, yeah IF you go by the publicized birthday she's an Aries, but just barely. She'd probably act like an Aries/Taurus mix since she's on the cusp.
ReplyDeleteI get what you are saying though. There was debate over whether that was her real birthday or if it was faked to not give away that Katie was preggo before Tom.
I was surprised by the make-up, first thing I noticed.
ReplyDeleteI'm still sort of tickled that Will and Jada have a 'school'.
I mean really? And a class called Study Technology sounds really weird and skeevy to me.
But Conner seems relatively okay..so many its not as creepy One Flew Over the Cookoo's Nest, like it is in my head right now. *shiver*

ReplyDeleteby the way, what is UP with this religion stripping the cool, hip, and sexy gene outta their men.
ReplyDeleteI mean Will Smith and Tom freaking Cruise? Both used to be like sex on a stick and now both just give off desperate delusional gross vibes to me now.
I would think at some point if Katie wanted to get out of the marriage that DNA testing could be done. I still think Josh Hartnett is Suri's father.
ReplyDeleteNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO...not my suri. somebody save her.
ReplyDeletei weep.
Is lipstick/any other makeup on this child new, or is this just the first time I've noticed it? Agreed, Suri comes across as a monstrous brat; I pity her teachers, classmates, nannies, and anyone else who has to come in contact with her. For the rest of her life.
ReplyDelete"Instead of recess she can look forward to auditing and instead of summer vacation she can look forward to three months with the SeaOrg for no pay. "
ReplyDeleteThat's funny Enty but just in case someone believes you it isn't true.
My loved ones are involved in more ways than one with this school and it's not that bad.
Katie wouldn't need to do DNA testing. If Suri wasn't Tom's which I don't believe, Tom knows and I guarantee has an iron clad contract confirming his parental rights no matter the dna.
ReplyDeleteThis is a tad off topic .. but have you ever noticed .. and Suri is not immune .. how all Scientologists children - aka second/third/whatever generation Scientolgists - have this vacant look in their eyes? Kinda scary.
ReplyDelete@Lutefisk .. I think you mean Chris Something-or-other .. I don't think Katie was ever with Josh.

ReplyDelete@Mango -- "I'll say this about Brangelina's tribe: they may be entitled but they don't appear to be spoiled and insufferable like this brat."
ReplyDeleteAgreed. Zahara might shoot a pap a sideeye every once in a while, but who can blame her? Honestly, I'd babysit Shiloh or Maddox in a heartbeat. Those kids look totally joyous nearly all the time.
It is very unusual for a woman not be given at least joint custody of the children. As long as a mother doesn't have serious "issues" (substance abuse, mental illness, criminal record, etc.), she can almost always be given 50/50 custody. I have never believed that Nicole Kidman isn't "allowed" to see her children. She has enough money to hire a good lawyer and get some custody rights if she wants to. I suspect it is part of a contract or a financial arrangement.
ReplyDeleteDoes anyone else think of the character Claudia from "Interview with the Vampire" when they see pictures of her? There's something about her eyes that makes me believe in the possibility of complete and total evilness in the body of a child.
ReplyDelete@SusanB - I wondered the same thing.
ReplyDeleteAlthough, honestly...with the upbringing this kid is having, I'm not sure a private school would save her at this point.
@New Life and Attitude - How does that even work?? I don't know enough about Scientology but...seems like believing in all that might...conflict with the Catholic religion??
Lipstick and heels on a kid? This kid runs Katie.
ReplyDelete@lutefisk—seriously scary article! Thanks for the link.
ReplyDeleteI saw Katie and Suri in person once about a year ago. It was at a fancy toy store in Stratford, Ontario - she was in Canada at the time, filming something. Suri was actually very well-behaved. You could really tell how much Katie loved her, which makes sense, since I'm guessing that when they're at home, Suri is the best/only friend she has. They both seemed to be having a ball; Katie was showing Suri how to use a hoola hoop. Besides having a bunch of people (assistant, nanny, etc.) around them, they really seemed like normal people. At first I didn't even realize it was Katie until I was on my way out and she was standing in front of the door. That's when I realized, but I just nonchalantly tapped her on the shoulder, said "excuse me," she apologized for blocking the door and I was on my way.
ReplyDelete@Not on My Dollar: if you believe that crap your "loved ones" are shoveling about this cult, do I have some AWESOME real estate to sell you! It's right on a fault line in Haiti, but the view!...
ReplyDeleteSeriously, someone needs to stop this crazy cult! Poor kid. I don't think Nicole doesn't see the older kids because of a custody agreement, but because of some dirt the cult leaders have on her. That's their M.O.-they blackmail their "enemies." That's what would get in Katie's way, probably.
Still, I have a feeling that Katie's attorney father can't wait to fight it out with Tom Cruise and his demon-friends when they finally split!
