So You Think You Can Dance’s new judge Adam Shankman has said Tom Cruise would be “great” as a guest judge on the show.

Shankman, 44, said that the Top Gun actor is a fan of the show and he would like to see him appear.

Shankman said: “Tom loves the show, so I hope so. I happen to love Tom, and Tom loves dancing, so it would be great.”

The show’s host, Cat Deeley, also said that Cruise impressed them all when his wife Katie Holmes performed on the last season.

Deeley said: “I’d never met him before so I had no idea what to expect. He was an absolute sweetheart. He was taking videos of his little girl and wife.

“Just like any guy, he was incredibly proud of his spouse.”

Actress Katie Holmes and husband Tom Cruise’s daughter Suri has a £2m wardrobe.

The three-year-old daughter of superstars Katie, 30, and Tom has some of the world’s top designers wanting to dress her as Suri is often out looking very stylish.

The parents have allegedly spent over £2million on clothes for their kid.

An insider said: “Katie and Tom really splurge on Suri, and as they’re so famous, they always get the top fashion designers to custom-make her clothes.”

The source added: “Suri may only be three, but she’s very vocal when it comes to her outfits and she’s rarely seen in anything twice.”

Victoria Beckham has also supposedly had a dress commissioned by designer Roberto Cavalli for Suri.

Tom Cruise and his Wichita co-star Cameron Diaz faced five potentially embarrassing questions each for a segment called Ten @ Ten on The Jay Leno Show, which airs at 10pm in the US.

Diaz was first asked what the first Tom Cruise movie she watched was. She said: “Erm, Top Gun. I won’t forget it.”

Cruise was then told to recite a line from the film, “with feeling”. He replied: “I feel the need, the need… The audience then shouted: “For speed!”

But things got slightly awkward when Leno asked Diaz: “Who spends more time in the make-up chair, you or Tom?”

Both groaned: “Come on, please!” Diaz joked: “Clearly me, Jay. Those [Tom's] cheeks are fresh and real.”

Then Leno asked: “Have you ever been to a strip club?” Cruise replied: “Actually I never have been.”

For the final question, Leno asked: “I know you’re a pilot, what are you better at – flying or sex?”

Cruise, 47, squirmed in his chair and leaned back and forth before answering: “You know what, I don’t know.”

Putting on a brave face, he kept grinning and said: “I try to excel in all areas and I’ve never been asked for a refund, so I don’t know.”

Tom Cruise was one of the A-list Hollywood actors who sought to replace Heath Ledger in his final movie, it was revealed.

Cruise lobbied for a part in The Imaginarium Of Dr Parnassus, which was directed by Terry Gilliam. Johnny Depp, Jude Law and Colin Farrell were cast as a trio to fill the vast shoes of the late Australian actor, who died suddenly in January 2008.

Gilliam told a film magazine: “I’m not sure if it was Tom or his agent. I know there was a period when Tom’s agents were keen. The thing is, I was only interested in people who were friends of Heath. Simple as that. I wanted to keep it in the family.”

Gilliam also revealed that some parts of the movie were not possible to complete without Ledger. “Some scenes we couldn’t do because Heath wasn’t there. And I was like, ‘The bastard’s directing this film! He’s telling me what I can and can’t do!’ The film is better for these things. That’s why I said at one point I wanted him to be co-director on the film.”

Tom Cruise appears to be taking steps to reverse the height problem he keeps having with his wives.

The star of Valkyrie appeared in Melbourne in some chunky-heeled Nike trainers, leading to speculation he was making an effort to redress the imbalance.

His former wife Nicole Kidman famously declared she would be able to again to wear heels once they were no longer together, although the actress’s height does set her apart by ordinary mortal standards.

But Cruise again appears to be battling a bit of height differential with Katie Holmes, 30.

The 47-year-old Cruise claims to be 170cm, or 5′7″; wearing the Nikes, however, he appeared suddenly to gain on his spouse, who stands 175cm, or 5′ 9″.

David Letterman once asked Holmes, who is in Melbourne to film Don’t Be Afraid of the Dark: “I’m thinking that Tom Cruise has got the loveliest woman in the world. How does that happen, for God’s sake? He’s shorter than you are.”

Holmes shot back: “‘I think he’s sexy.”

While his wife Katie Holmes stayed on in Melbourne to shoot a low-budget indie film, Cruise was spotted grooving to the strains of Beyonce at the Staples Centre.

He even knew how to do the Single Ladies (Put a Ring On It) dance. An onlooker said:"Everyone was laughing and taking pictures."

Beyonce fans greeted Cruise and clapped when he arrived at the concert. He later settled near the sound booth, where he sang and danced for the rest of the show.

Holmes has taken to dancing, too, dropping in on a North Melbourne dance studio owned by a judge on So You Think You Can Dance. She will appear on the show as a contestant in a 100th- episode charity benefit that has already drawn rave reviews.

Meanwhile, Holmes’s daughter, Suri, 3 is keeping her company in Cruise’s absence.

In the middle of a Melbourne winter, Katie Holmes and Suri Cruise relaxed in summery style after Tom Cruise checked out of their luxury hotel, the Crown Plaza.

Holmes in a bathing suit took Suri to lounge at an indoor pool, where the 3-year-old played with a blue noodle-shaped flotation device.

Mother and daughter spent time in a spa before heading to a large-sized pool where they were surrounded by children from Melbourne vacationing with their families.

Guest William Cuthbertson, just nine, said he recognised Holmes from the hit movie Batman Begins.

“Suri was tucked up against Katie’s chest and she wouldn’t show her face to us,” he said.

Holmes appeared relaxed and happy as she smiled at the other pool guests and kept Suri warm in a big fluffy towel.

Holmes will start shooting the movie Don’t Be Afraid of the Dark this month as the set is said to be under a security lockdown at the waterfront renovated area of Docklands.

Husband Cruise is believed to be planning to fly in and out of Melbourne while Holmes completes a three-month work engagement on the film.

Katie Holmes has said she is “looking forward” to moving to Australia for three months to shoot her new film.

Katie’s husband Tom Cruise, 46, will also be joining her in Australia, along with their three-year-old daughter Suri.

After achieving so much and also winning an Oscar Nicole Kidman has said that she feel that during the earlier part of her career she wasn’t a good actress and the limelight came her way just because she was married to Tom Cruise. “I felt I became a star only by association. I didn’t think the early movies were very good, which is why I would always cower in the background,” Nicole told Glamour’s December issue.

And guess what she has been chosen as the Woman of the Year by Glamour Magazine. Nicole has certainly come a long way since then and especially after her divorce with Tom Cruise she has really put in a lot to hard work to attain the stature that she possesses today. For those who are determined to achieve something on their own work can prove to be a great form of escape from other distractions.

These two are enjoying pairing off with other couples and hitting the town. Just last week, They headed out with Will Smith and Jada Pinkett. Now, Tom and Katie are out with old friends of Tom’s.

Tom and Katie were spotted at Wolfgang Puck’s Cut steakhouse with Forest and Keisha Whitaker. Tom co-starred with Forest in 1986 in The Color of Money.

Is it just me or does Katie look like a scared kid?

Friends and colleagues of Heath Ledger met on the Sony lot Saturday for yet another memorial service for the actor who died suddenly.
Those in attendance included Katie Holmes, Tom Cruise, Sienna Miller, Ellen DeGeneres, and Shannyn Sossamon. The ceremony was closed to the public. This one came after friends and family members had held a smaller service at a cemetary in Los Angeles.

Emma Bunton is a fake! She’s not the real Baby Spice, Suri Cruise is.Apparently, Tom and Katie’s baby is a big fan of the Spice Girls. The Hollywood tot was taken to visit the rehearsals of the girl group by her parents. A sneak peek as to what went on during the visit was posted on the Spice Girls’ official website.

Tom and Katie stopped by to wish the girls luck for the forthcoming tour when they were treated to an exclusive performance. Suri danced along to the music. It looks like Suri’s getting ready to spice up our life.

David Hans Schmidt, a 47-year-old man notorious around Tinsel town for attempting to hock compromised celebrity photos and videos for big money, has agreed to plead guilty in a plot to try and extort more than $1 million from Cruise in exchange for wedding photos pilfered from the actor. One doesn’t have to succeed in one’s actions to be a hero. Many people throughout history have sacrificed their lives for a cause. Colonel von Stauffenberg gave his life trying to remove Hitler from power and bring about a quick end to the war. Take a look at world history and I’m sure you’ll be surprised how many have died for their beliefs. He may be a little quirky, but I think everyone has there own quirks that other people think are strange. That is what is supposed to make our country so diverse. As for the movie, I would like to see it. Anyone who tried to assassinate Hitler has to have a good story behind him. I am a big tom cruise fan, have been since the 80’s. And I am also glad the scum that tried to extort money from him is getting his just rewards. What a jerk.

David Beckham attracted Hollywood stars Sunday the same way he draws defenders on the soccer field.

A glittery array of Oscar winners and entertainment world luminaries turned out for what was billed as an official welcome-to-Los Angeles party for the international soccer icon and his wife, pop singer Victoria.

With Tom Cruise and Will Smith playing co-hosts for the invitation-only bash at the Museum of Contemporary Art’s Geffen Contemporary gallery, the guest list was long and deep.

Director Ron Howard and producer Brian Grazer were among the first to arrive. Brooke Shields was there. “Desperate Housewives” star Eva Longoria popped in, followed by “American Idol” creator Simon Fuller, who managed the Spice Girls pop group that made Victoria Beckham famous.

Wesley Snipes and Quincy Jones came to welcome the soccer star, as did Bruce Willis, Demi Moore and Ashton Kutcher. Vivica Fox showed up too.

The Beckhams arrived with Cruise, accompanied by wife Katie Holmes, and Smith, with his wife, Jada Pinkett Smith.

Cruise flew in for the bash from Germany, where he is shooting his newest film.

For the British Beckhams, it was a taste of classic Hollywood. A red carpet was rolled out at the entrance. A small army of police patrolled streets for blocks. There were limousines and TV cameras by the dozen. Helicopters thumped overhead.

Inside, the warehouse-like venue was transformed with couches, elaborate lighting and floral arrangements into a glittery nightclub. Music blared.

If Beckham was embarrassed by deafening cheers from fans at his sold-out debut Saturday as a Los Angeles Galaxy player, he must have been dumbfounded by the profusion of celebrity sparkle at the party.

But he said nothing on his way in, only waving at TV cameras and reporters.
