TomKat: ''Be afraid, be very afraid.''

Jun 17, 2005, 11:08 AM | by Michael Slezak

Categories:

Tomkat_lI'll leave it to the tabloids to dig up the intimate details of Tom Cruise's Eiffel Tower wedding proposal to Katie Holmes. I'm more interested in how Today and Good Morning America, the two programs engaged in a death match for a place at the nation's breakfast table, covered the TomKat merger.

First strike: GMA placed TomKat early in its news lineup, with a piece that aired at 7:04 am and ran just under two minutes. Today's story of nearly identical length didn't run until 7:18 am.

Extended followup: Again, GMA struck first, running a reaction piece with substitute host Bill Weir interviewing Us magazine's Katrina Szish at 7:31am; the coverage lasted just under three minutes. Today, meanwhile, didn't get back to Cruise-Holmes until 8:11 am, with Matt Lauer interviewing MSNBC's Allison Stewart and People's Larry Hackett for slightly less than five minutes.

Best scoop: As if getting MSNBC's Stewart on Cruise's private train wasn't enough, Today also got an audio snippet of Cruise over the locomotive's loudspeakers, telling passengers to ''be afraid, be very afraid.''

Best graphics: Today's map of France, showing the ''Live from the World Cruise'' route from Paris to Marseilles, was a camp classic.

Funniest comment: Lauer's ''If it's a publicity stunt, it's gone too far.''

Best way to save next week's Cruise interview: Katie Couric's response, ''I think they seem to be very happy -- and I wish them a lot of happiness.''

Strangest comment: Weir's ''They called a press conference to announce this. Maybe it's some sort of Jedi mind trick where instead of being recluse, dodgy celebrities, they're gonna lay it all out there.''

Most excessive hyperbole: In the midst of news about the war in Iraq and California's flurry of earthquakes, Stewart calling the engagement of two film stars ''an earth-shattering announcement.''

For that, dear readers (not to mention Weir's gratuitous Star Wars reference), methinks GMA wins this round of The Morning-Show Bakeoff.

Tome cruise is a man who will be VERY VERY sorry for the mistakes he has made in the past year. And come on lets face it, what kind of woman with any brain cells is going to put up with her husband bossing her around and telling her what religion she should be!!!! Katie get real, stand up for yourself please, your giving women a bad name!!!!!!

It will all end in divorce.........everybody knows that!!!!!! I just feel sorry for that poor baby.

Anyways he will be divorced for the 3rd time, atleast penelope cruz had the sense not to walk down the aisle with him!!

Lindsay Lohan Mon, May 1, 2006 at 01:00 PM EST

Before you judge her you should get to know her.

Katie is a wonderful woman and will be a GREAT mom!!

THAT BABY ISNT TOMS!

Katie Tue, Apr 4, 2006 at 12:26 AM EST

Tom Cruise is an idiot. He need to stop telling women what to do! Katie needs to stop letting Tom “Cruise control” her. Scientology is nothing but a money making machine. The founder of the so-called religion was a science fiction author. That Jessica Rodriguez girl also needs to leave Katie alone, I read she makes sure Katie does everything in accordance with the laws of Scientology. Tom is the one who needs to be silent during the birth not Katie. Tom should shut his big fat pie hole for good.

Ryan Sat, Jan 7, 2006 at 05:11 AM EST

This is what hapens when people ASSume, do any of you KNOW what it's like to be a celebrity? Definatly not! cameras everywere, everyone watching you and stalking you, takeing snapshots of you for a small amount of money. And have any of you ever been in LOVE? It Apears to me that the entire amount of tom haters have not one ounce of wisdom or intellect, you go around boasting that he is a nutcase when infact the majority of people claiming this are the nutcases. have you no strategy? What Tom is doing is putting on a play for the press and tabloids. When Your Truly in LOVE you wont care for anything else but THAT person your in LOVE with. With that statement said, It's obvious He wouldnt want anyone or anything disrutping his love life. i heard a comment from someone saying "it is jen and ben all over again!" take them for example the press and tabloids were all over them and put strain on there relationship, Tom probably wants to live his life with her withought the press and tabloids all over them. The reason for this play is to eventually bore the press and tabloids so that there eyes are on someone else. the ones who are sick are the Tom Boycots, you all need to chill and take your meds.

Jimbo Sun, Nov 27, 2005 at 07:34 AM EST

Tom Cruise is typical of the vast majority of Hollywood celebrities...simply put, trash with cash...

Unti we as a society stop putting these complete losers on a pedestal, nothing will change. We have role models like Paris Hilton and Tom Cruise...what the hell went wrong with our society. It sickens me that complete and total wastes of sperm like the vast majority of hollywood are sitting there making millions by playing pretend all day, and then we actually act as though they are experts in fields like politics, education, world afffairs, etc. Remember, just a short time ago, most of the hollywood elite were uneducated, blue collar wait staff who happened to get picked for a movie because they fit the wardrobe...those are our experts - society you make me sick.

eddie Thu, Oct 6, 2005 at 07:18 AM EST

I was a tom fan once! BUT NOT ANYMORE! YEAH! HE IS A GOOD LOOKING JERK WHO HAS ACTING ABILITIES,TOO BAD HE ISNT AWARE THAT HE IS BIPOLAR!!! AND SINCE TOM DOESNT TAKE HIS PSYCHIATRIC MEDICATION,HE IS ACTING LIKE A MANIC-IDIOT.TOM,I SPENT 6 YRS IN COLLEGE TO BECOME A CLINICAL PSYCHOLOGIST."I think Tom Cruz has an awful lot of issues of his own" please Tom stop it! before no one likes you, grow up!

morgan Thu, Aug 11, 2005 at 09:25 AM EST

It's good to know that even celebrity can suffer from PPD. Brook Sheilds was brave to share her story with the world, so she could let everyone out there that there is help, but what does Tom Cruise do, he totally trashes her for coming out. I can't stand Tom Cruise and I think Tom Cruise needs to shut his mouth. I personally don't own any of his movies. Thank heavens. I know that the whole Tomkat is a sham. Tom Cruise is a media whore and Katie Holmes is a mindless, brainwashed twit.

Greg Ortega Sat, Jul 9, 2005 at 05:14 PM EST

Wierdo huh?....You have to respect other poeple beliefs!
We all have our own beliefs...Dont we?....I dont know but incase some of you are walking on water please shoot me a e-mail at me....But with all the chaos going on around the world these days It would probably be a good idea for someone to call on thier "God" huh?I use to not believe in Aliens until I read some of this junk on this website!You people need to relax and go grab a cold beer...lol...This is War of the Worlds!....Freaks!

C.D. Mon, Jul 4, 2005 at 04:31 PM EST

WHAT HAPPENS WHEN SOMEONE'S HEAD GETS TOO BIG? TOM CRUISE HAPPENS. FOR SOMEONE WHO HAS HAD GREAT LUCK, FAME & FORTUNE, HE SHOULD BE HUMBLED BY IT ALL. INSTEAD, HE DECIDES TO PLAY "GOD" NOW. HIS COMMENTS AND BEHAVIOR IS A TOTAL TURN OFF. I WILL NEVER SEE ANOTHER TOM CRUISE MOVIE, INCLUDING THE CURRENT "WAR OF THE WORLDS". SORRY, MR. SPEILBERG. I HOPE THAT TOM'S MANAGER OR P.R. PERSON WILL MAKE HIM APOLOGIZE TO BROOKE SHIELDS. THAT IS, AND WAS NONE OF HIS BUSINESS. ALSO,..AN APOLOGY TO MATT LAUER IS IN LINE, WHO AS USUAL, HANDLED THIS INSANE POMPOUS OUTBURST WITH DIGNITY AND PROFESSIONALISM. I AGREE WITH MOST,..RUN,KATIE,..RUN FOR YOUR LIFE.
LET'S CONCENTRATE ON POSITIVE PEOPLE WHO HAVE DONE GOOD THINGS FOR OTHERS, AND STOP WASTING TIME AND PRINT ON THIS LOSER.

sgblack Thu, Jun 30, 2005 at 08:47 PM EST

I am so sick of the public putting these ignorant, self gratifying morans such as Tom Cruise up on a pedestal. I think he and John Travolta got involved in this Scientology voodoo just to see how much clout they have with the American public. This Katie has to be a starry eyed brainless twit to allow Cruise to convert her to something which has no promises for any relevency. I would be running from this egotistic maniac!!!!!

Missy Wed, Jun 29, 2005 at 01:49 AM EST

If I have to see Tom Cruise open his big mouth one more time I'll die! I would like to know what school he went to that made him such a know it all about meds. Come on if people didn't need it and it didn't work it wouldn't be out there. I feel Brooks pain and I'm totally on her side. Hey Tom try GOD and let the doctors deal with the meds. I just wonder if Tom came down with something like aids or cancer would he want any meds???? Oh but Tom that would be so wrong!!!!! I wonder who put DR. in front of your name?!?! You have lost A LOT of fans. Hey just maybe you need some meds for the way you act....your making us all very ill.

Nanc Tue, Jun 28, 2005 at 09:17 PM EST

While cable surfing I came across a 2002 movie on Lifetime called "Abandon." Guess who was playing the part of the virginal, naive student named Katie, who does this singing/yodeling thing? Katie Holmes, of course. It's one of those come of age/get trashed/get laid/get stalked. Virgin is pursued by NutCase. Kept hearing familiar phrases in the dialogue between Katie and her on-screen boy pal that were the same words I now hear coming out of Tom Cruise's mouth! In "Abandon" Katie's boyfriend gushes that she's "marvelous" and mature. (sound familiar?) Then they talk about her singing and yodeling (yodeling? Gross!) TomKat were talking about singing and yodeling in an interview. Guess Tom saw the same movie and decided to borrow a few lines. Katie should know the script. Talk about life imitating Art!! Check it out and YOU TOO can predict the coming dialogue in the publicity... er...romance.

I so agree that Tom Thumb is a nut job.

jen Mon, Jun 27, 2005 at 03:29 PM EST

Nicole Kidman and Penelope Cruz you are both very SMART women to get away from that Dr. Strangenose Tom Cruise!! Oh yea, Mimi Rogers too--you got rid of him a long time ago smart lady. He actually seems like he could use some anti-psychotic medication to stabilize the couch jumping and "I know psychiatry, you don't!!!" garbage he is spouting... Not to mention saying,"Matt!! Matt!!!" about a million times in the Lauer interview. What a completely delusional know it all. If he has all the answers, why is he divorced multiple times and spends more time on movie sets than with his children? Look in your own backyard you total NUTJOB Cruise. You should get a lobotomy--it might help you.

Sara Sun, Jun 26, 2005 at 06:46 PM EST

I never thought I would want to burn any and all Tom Cruise films, but thanks in part to the media and this guy's own obviously warped mind, he now makes me nauseous!

Thank God for DVD's, so I don't have to watch TV and see his face on every station. (As if anyone gives a rat's "you know whatie" about what Tom's about.

If the media and those watching it, will stop feeding into it (and buying mags and tab's with him in them, it would stop pretty fast)! If no one makes money, then they will stop shoving him down our throats (at least we can hope).

Sara Sun, Jun 26, 2005 at 06:34 PM EST

I think Tom Cruise is the one who needs medication!! He's absolutely delusional! If Tom's head getts any bigger, it's gonna float clean off his shoulders. (Now that would be Newsworthy) HA!! :)

The fact that Tom Cruise is getting married...again...is about as news worthy as Zsa Zsa Gabore tying the knot! What's newsworthy about that?

Ashley Sun, Jun 26, 2005 at 11:24 AM EST

I can't believe he is making statements like this! When I first saw clips of the Cruise/Lauer interview, I was outraged. I didn't want to make a judgment out of context, so I looked up and read the full transcript of that interview. I have lost all respect for Tom Cruise.

I am a person who has clinical depression and has been on anti-depressant medication for over one year. I have had to try several different combinations in order to get where I am at this moment, and I am convinced that psychology and those drugs have saved my life. Cruise's attack on Brooke Shields and her book convinced me to purchase it, and it's wonderful. It's so amazing and great to know that someone else out there understands the feelings I've had and was brave enough to speak out about it.

When did Tom get a degree in psychology? He seems to think that being a Scientologist means he knows it all. I respect his religious beliefs, however foreign they are to me, but he needs to respect the people out there who don't feel as he does instead of acting like the be-all and end-all.

^Enigma^ Sat, Jun 25, 2005 at 11:49 PM EST

I was shocked and dismayed at the performance Tom Cruz put on during his interview with Matt Lauer. His pretentious claim that he knows enough about psychiatry to make a definitive statement that no one should use antidepressants is incredulous. Even if he spent months researching Ritalin (which is not an antidepressant, as he claimed), the fact that he places himself on the same knowlegable plane as MDs who prescribe antidepressants is enough to make me question Mr. Cruz's own mental health.

My advice to Mr. Cruz....don't quit your day job. And leave the art of medicine to those knowlegeable enough to be credible.

sjo Sat, Jun 25, 2005 at 10:03 PM EST

Wow. He's making MJ look normal. I won't see his movie because this whole thing annoys me and I don't want to see anything that reminds me of it. WEIRD...

Lisa Sat, Jun 25, 2005 at 09:29 PM EST

What a weirdo! I NEVER really liked Tom Cruise. I liked him in Collateral and Born on the 4th of July, but that is about it. He has some nerve berating Brooke Shields! I suffered from a MAJOR depression and the ONLY thing that pulled me out was MEDICATION. And I had to try different combinations before I got better. It took months and months. This depression was life altering. I HATE and despise people like Tom Cruise who think "just get over it"! I am sure medication saved Brooke's life, my life and countless others. Tom Cruise get off your high horse!

Trish Sat, Jun 25, 2005 at 03:28 PM EST

It doesn't really matter if Tom Cruise is gay. It also doesn't matter if the relationship he and Katie Holmes have is a crock. What DOES matter is that he is making definitive statements in reference to the treatment of mental illness and leaving NO room for any interpretation of the facts, but his own. How utterly irresponsible can one man be? To use his fame to influence people to NOT take anti-depressants and other drugs is criminal. His statements are "psychiatry is based on nothing, my opinion is based on science".
I say lets round up all the people currently on these drugs and take them to Tom's house, FANTASY LAND RANCH, and he can, as he said, have them follow "proper diet, exercise, and vitamins" and they will be cured. All righty then. I am convinced, after watching him interviewed several times, that he is NUTS.

jen Sat, Jun 25, 2005 at 02:32 PM EST

Tom Cruise is an actor who pretends to be other people for a living. Did he get his M.D. between making Top Gun and The Outsiders?? He never even fathered a child biologically so he knows NOTHING about PPD. If he thinks vitamins cure everything he should take about a million to cure his crappo controlling personality and bad manners towards Matt Lauer and Brooke Shields. He is dangerous and creepy.

andrea Sat, Jun 25, 2005 at 02:04 AM EST

Thanks Andi Micheli, that is so funny. Goodness only knows why, but I went to google and typed in "tom cruise nut case", and whammo! This and other sites came up. I guess I was just wondering, if anyone else in the world was thinking the same mean and nasty thoughts as I was. I hit the jack pot! Thanks for the laugh.
Thank goodness Nicole escaped his clutches.

Adam Sat, Jun 25, 2005 at 01:54 AM EST

Tom Cruise is totally gay... has anyone noticed that Katie Holmes looks like a tomboy?

So, maybe she really does rock Tom's world. He can finally enjoy having sex with a girl (because to him, she looks like a boy!)

WoTW looked cool, but I am not seeing it now. He just disgusts me. Someone please, shut his gay ass up!

LayneCobain Fri, Jun 24, 2005 at 11:08 PM EST

Why wont anyone tell the truth,The man is gay,always has been,always will be.There,I said it,Someones knocking on my door,Its the lawyers,gotta go,bye

Ted Fri, Jun 24, 2005 at 10:08 PM EST

Reading over the comments in this column, too many of them are too similar in tenor not to have been written by the same person. There are names for this practice: witch hunt, demagoguery. If you cannot camoflage your writing style any better than this, you should recruit someone else to write and carry your message.

Ted

Nancy Fri, Jun 24, 2005 at 09:49 PM EST

As I was watching the interview with Matt Lauer, Tom was gettin' tenser...and tighter...and madder...and meaner...and goshdarnit he gonna EXplode himself if he don't get his knickers out of a twist!! What a pompous ASS.

Geri Fri, Jun 24, 2005 at 08:23 PM EST

This bi-polar out of control TC is getting better and better, I can see the Hollywood producers wincing and hiding now! If TC believes people are bigots against Scientology, he only has himself to blame, HE puts that wacko nutjob stuff out there like he is some sort of God, telling people how to live their lives etc, This man has not even fathered a baby and yet HE knows how to treat PPD?
HE knows psychiatry? It is unfortunate that WoTW will probably do giant box office anyway, but count me out of the crowd.
I think it is time for TC to follow his own advice, take a couple bottles of vitamins a day and just get out of our sight!
Plus, has anyone noticed how "Mr nice guy" TC is just getting nastier and nastier in his interviews?? I mean, I don't like Matt Lauer either but his interview with TC just made me LOL because TC is so out of control now, hey Scientology people, pull your guy in, he is out of control!!

The L.A. Times was sued by the Church of Scientology for revealing the actual beliefs of Scientology. Everyone should read this and educate themselves as much as they possibly can on the cult of Scientology.
Do a google search about Scientology and Clearwater, Florida.

Ness Wed, Jun 22, 2005 at 02:44 PM EST

You guys are a riot man, I love it. I agree with everyone but Jennifer - Tom is now a bonafide whack-job, and Katie is a hopelessly brainwashed dipwad who just wanted to be in the big leagues. Well she sure is now, she better enjoy what's left of her credibility. I'm still fuming at his arrogance in what he said about Brooke, prescription medication and psychiatry. Does the jerk have any idea how antidepressants and therapy have literally given people their lives back? Heck, Katie will probably need both when this is all over. I used to be a huge Tom Cruise fan, he's from my state, but I'm done with him and his theories and his cult recruitment. I am generally suspicious of a religion that has to constantly trumpet itself, billions of people worship faithfully without trying to sell their religion to others, so SHUT YER PIEHOLE TOM CRUISE. Go do what you want with who you want, but don't make us have to hear it and see it constantly, we're sick of it and sick of you.

Aida Tue, Jun 21, 2005 at 03:05 PM EST

Maybe Katie just completes Tom. Maybe he had her at hello...

Mike Tue, Jun 21, 2005 at 12:01 AM EST

Tom Cruise proves that there is no fool like an old fool. He auditions women to be his next as a publicity stunt to promote his movie and chose Katie Holmes who is in need of publicity to promote hers. The idea that Mr. Cuise would appear on shows making a fool of himelf is unseemly. That Katie Holmes would make a fool of herself to ruin her image as a nice Catholic girl and to go whole hog to embrace Mr. Cruise's psuedo-religion and a bogus romance just to promote a movie and the hope of having a larger career is pitiful. Miss Holmes will be severely hurt in this stunt where she should have just kept her head and continued to be a nice Catholic girl with the acting roles that come from it. Now she won't be able to be taken seriously and Tom Cruise will roll on to the next stunt going deeper into acting like a fool.

I also would not put it past Tom Cruise to have hired the guy with the squirting microphone in London as another publicity stunt. The event was too convenient and his reaction to prepared for it not to be a staged stunt.

Frank Frank Mon, Jun 20, 2005 at 06:30 PM EST

Jennifer,

You are truly a moron. Pull your head out from your arse and get a life.

Stephanie Mon, Jun 20, 2005 at 02:15 PM EST

"What troubles me is how much people are interested in this, or say they're put off by it."

Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes have shoved this nonsense in the front of every camera they could possibly find. Why are you then so surprised that people are so put off by it? It is such an obvious display of publicity hogging that is is laughable.

That is where the animosity comes from - not to mention the fact that he is behaving like a nutcase, and she like a brainwashed teenager.

How can anyone take this nonsense seriously?

Dash Mon, Jun 20, 2005 at 12:15 PM EST

Cory- with all due respect, you're a moron. "Not sure how he manages to keep this secret --- Scientology's reach must be far and wide." Conspiracy theory 101: the conspiracy theorist will claim some highly secretive, nearly omnipotent institution has the power to cover up most of the evidence of an alleged action or event. Indeed, the lack of evidence pervesely strengthens their conviction that very powerful forces are at work.

Here's my opinion on the topic, as if it matters: I don't really care. What troubles me is how much people are interested in this, or say they're put off by it. The amount of vitrol and cynicism directed at this relationship, and for baseless reasons. People are now suggesting that the water prank was in fact a secret publicity stunt set up by Cruise's handlers to win back the sympathy of the masses. This makes just about as much sense as engaging someone in order to promote WOTW and BATMAN BEGINS.

Pablo Mon, Jun 20, 2005 at 12:14 PM EST

Hey katie! go back to Dawson's Creek where you belong! You're a terrible actress, and Tom is just into you 'cause he's hungry...hungry for publicity!...and other stuff...

pyenkat Mon, Jun 20, 2005 at 08:55 AM EST

i think she needs more time to ask herself of what she's going to get into.

A mom Mon, Jun 20, 2005 at 08:02 AM EST

I think Tom needs to grow up and get over his mid-life crisis. He's old enough to be her father. She is nothing more than a star-struck groupie. The tip off was the comment about having a poster of him in her room when she was growing up and wanting to marry him (or did I just imagine hearing this). Obviously she is still a baby herself or she wouldn't want a guy with multiple failed marriages who jumps on furniture like a 2 year old. Neither of them will ever have the class of Nicole Kidman.

greta Sun, Jun 19, 2005 at 05:33 AM EST

The only way we could make these losers go away is to boycott all their movies and stop reading their news items (except blogs that tell the truth!). So everytime we see a pic of him, divert our attention to somewhere else!

Stephanie Sun, Jun 19, 2005 at 02:13 AM EST

I can honestly say I have never seen two people more publicity hungry than these two. Little Katie wanted to be a star and now she is being rail-roaded into marrying her nutcase-pretend-boyfriend. Tom wanted to be the stud of the year and now just looks like an old pathetic fool.

Exactly why the media is buying this I honestly don't know, but they clearly aren't the brightest bunch.

Someone please, just make these two losers go away. Now!

Jennifer Sat, Jun 18, 2005 at 04:11 PM EST

I think that we shouldn't be so quick to judge, at least he is trying to be open about his relationship, unlike Brad Pitt, who will only say "he knows his own truth", we all think it is weird when someone admits how happy he is, but do you remember how you felt when you had been seeing someone for 2 months? Giddy and in love,..I think what he has been doing is refreshing,..and everyone else just seems to think he is weird,..in my eyes, I think more of Tom Cruise now.

Laurie Sat, Jun 18, 2005 at 08:39 AM EST

Tom Cruz, er Cruise, is such a loser! He leaves his first wife because of...who knows!? He leaves the mother of his children...and his children, because...he's a loser! He leaves Penelope, because...who knows?! He leaves Katie because...oh, sorry, I must have been going back to the future........

Jessie Fri, Jun 17, 2005 at 10:09 PM EST

Tom has so much nerve ripping on Brooke Shields. What did she do to him? Her life is none of his business. When I'm over that, maybe I can then begin to process this whole engagement stuff. Hey Tom, didn't Rod Stewart just propose at the top of the Eiffel Tower like a month ago?

Debbie Baylin Fri, Jun 17, 2005 at 04:50 PM EST

What Tom doesn't know is.... Brooke Shield's doctor used that SAME EXACT Sharpie to write her prescription for anti-depressants. Beware, Tom, beware!

Melanie Fri, Jun 17, 2005 at 04:04 PM EST

There's something about this that I just can't turn from: it's like a fatal car accident that I just keep gawking at. I've always been into pop culture, but I can't remember being so enthralled in a sick way by a celebrity "relationship" before. And I've always been a huge Tom Cruise fan, but now I think the man is bizarre and creepy. I honestly think he's brainwashed the poor girl and now he has young arm candy plus a new convert to his wacky, cultish religion.

Abby Fri, Jun 17, 2005 at 03:52 PM EST

I wish we could all just forget the less than admirable lives of our beloved celebs. Has it ever occured to anyone with half a brain that these people are all NUTS? Its sad that I actually had nothing better to do than not read the blog and post a comment, but c'mon people is this really newsworthy?! Leave 'em alone for all that is holy!

Wasn't Paris the place Tom Cruise and Mimi Rogers spent their honeymoon?

Charity Fri, Jun 17, 2005 at 11:26 AM EST

"Happiness" gone too far! This is crazy. What happened to celebrities wanting private lives? George Clooney needs to sit TomKat down and give them a good talking too. This is just too much and actually too hard to believe as true.

Andi Micheli Fri, Jun 17, 2005 at 10:56 AM EST

As though the world couldn't get any weirder, the unthinkable has happened! Tom "I love this woman" Cruise and Katie "umm, where am I?" Holmes are now engaged. You know what this means don't you? It means that for the next three month or the duration of the marriage, which ever comes first, we're going to be forced to watch Bennifer all over again. Only this time with yodeling and couch gymnastics, two new sports brought to the forefront by Oprah and our buddy Tom.

Somebody bust out the Scientology User Manual and let me know if earthquakes are a sign of impending world domination. And if they are, I comin' for you Mr and Mrs Cruise. You hear me? I'm comin for you!
