Finally, muy suave

    Am I the only person who doesn’t believe they’re dating? In fact, I think it’s just a publicity stunt.

    How much taller is she than he?

    How much older is he than she?

    How tiny tiny he is! And what a trend! It is as if at one moment, the heartthrobs of the ’80s and ’90s suddenly looked up from their soup to the realization, “I am famous! I can snog the young!” And now Demi has her Ashton, Bruce Willis pawed Lindsay Lohan, and Tom Cruise is here with his Dawson’s Creek accessory. It seems an excellent way for each generation of heartthrob to benefit. The elders benefit from the appearance of renewed vigor and sex appeal, and the young benefit from having their 11-year-old fantasies come true.

    Everyone (inc. the Manolo) knows/thinks this is just a publicity stunt.

    Muy suave? Muy gay, if you ask me.
    Not that there is anything wrong with that.

    PS Notice the tightly closed lips enduring the grip of “super masculinity”
    PPS Notice that the defining characteristic of the “Village People” was a similar and similarly outre “super masculinity.”
    PPS Not that there’s anything wrong with that.

    I admit I was strangely compelled by this pairing. She looked like another “project” for him, you know? Trying to pull off a “Roman Holiday” of sorts, but not measuring up to Audrey.

    The age difference doesn’t alarm me, that’s par for the course. The height difference? Nicole’s taller than Joey.

    And then I realized that I had been hoodwinked, not unlike the residents of Duluth, Georgia… a victim of an elaborate hoax.

    Is this because I would like to believe in love?

    Muy suave looks like he just threw up in his mouth, a little.

    The Tom must be running out of the starlets to date that don’t eventually want a physical relationship with a man. He probably has his eye on the sicker Olsen Twin for when this ends. It is tough to play the leading man if all knows the truth. Ask the Rupert of the Everett (who is drop dead handsome … and tall!) how difficult is to be cast in a straight role when all know the truth.

    That kiss pic reminds me of the Michael Jackson/Lisa Marie Presley kiss, with the accompanying Ew. In another decade, when he is in his 50s, he probably WILL be dating Dakota Fanning.

    I was shocked when I heard they were dating. It seems to be a publicity stunt…doesn’t he seems to ‘help’ these actresses along in their career building. Too bad it didn’t really work for Penelope…I can’t stand her!

    Nooooo! Nooooooooo! Noooooooaaaaawwwwwwwaaaaah! this is just disgusting and all wrong. He looks like an older dirty gym teacher trying to seduce a 7th grade girl. Why would this be apealing to anybody?

  13. MollieBee May 1, 2005 at 7:46 pm #

    She was like 7 when Top Gun came out.

    Ewwwwww.

  14. Allison May 1, 2005 at 8:59 pm #

    I can’t believe they are dating! And the news is spreading like wildfire! Demi and Ashton seem to be doing well with the age difference, so good luck to them! But so soon after she broke up with Chris Klein, poor Chris.

    TOM CRUISE IS GAY. Right? He is also a Scientologist. I think they got his number and are blackmailing him with exposure. That’s how they do it. They get you to confess your dirty secrets and then they’ve got ya by the balls.

    Acch, wee Tom, we all ken lad, and have fer some time, me thinks your protests have grown feeble, not to mention too timely in manner. As fer Katie could ya not keep yer virginity without turning into a beard, girl? The words out on yer former hand holding laddie as well.

    It just doesn’t look right. A very odd pairing indeed..

  18. Mimi May 2, 2005 at 10:24 am #

    In the muy suave picture he looks like a Saturday Night Live skit of himself.

  19. Elizabeth May 2, 2005 at 1:16 pm #

    The Elizabeth, she is most impressed by the quality of the editing of the Photoshop.

  20. cris May 2, 2005 at 1:20 pm #

    The Tom Cruise, he should hit on people his own size

  21. Rachel May 2, 2005 at 1:55 pm #

    I never thought of her as being tall but look at that height difference!

  22. alexis May 2, 2005 at 2:50 pm #

    The Alexis, at 5’8 she is the same height as the Katie Holmes, which is not very tall at all.
    Tom Cruise, he is indeed the teeny tiny man.

  23. Esther May 2, 2005 at 4:03 pm #

    I am now the nauseous. Ugh.

  24. Sportsmomof5 May 2, 2005 at 6:43 pm #

    EWW if she is that tall, oh my.. I couldn’t handle that for sure.. I am 5’10″ and had to marry a 6’8″ man.. So I could wear all of my awesome high heels!!!

    The video of the kiss is even less hot than the picture, if you can believe that. It was one of the most awkward, forced kisses I’ve seen in a long time. People who actually want to kiss each other, rather than stage a kiss for the cameras, do not act like that.

  26. dezphaire May 4, 2005 at 6:43 am #

    yuuuuuuuuck! yuck! yuck! and she was supposed to marry Chris Klein! someone taller… hunkier… and along-her-age-er!

    this is so, so, so wrong. teacher? teacher?

    that last photo is the best ever! my stomach hurts.

    All of your posts are so negative, don’t you have minds of your own? Anyway I think they’re cute.

    It might be too late for Katie, but we still have a chance with Dakota!
