Did Katie Holmes Perform On SYTYCD To Arouse Tom Cruise?

Katie Holmes appears on "So You Think You Can Dance?" - This is what Scientology does for careers ?

@goetz: That girl got no bizzness in a kitchen. She don't know what she doin with all those knives and vittles.

@Caius: I liked the twinkle in Cat's eye as she said that, as though she knew it was the most ridiculous thing they've ever made her say.

@mina324: Throw in her lousy acting and you've got a triple threat. Literally.

She exudes all sorts of creepiness. I liked her better before they removed her thetans or whatever.

Also, thanks for bowing to an audience of no one. I hate when pre-taped segments try to get away with that.

@serpentinefire: How fantastically awful.

I wonder what she would think now, watching her pre-audited self. It's very sad. She seemed like such a normal kid.

@Richard Lawson: Because it's not fair that someone with musical talent should play her when Katie has a famous husband, dammit!

The best part of the Mirror article was how they described Katie as "an untrained dancer and amateur singer." Yeah, that's how I'm going to introduce myself next time I get drunk enough to twirl around and yell Bon Jovi songs at a party.

Katie Holmes did not dance -- when she wasn't standing still, she just struck a series of poses. Maybe it did get Tom Cruise excited, but then wouldn't he have more likely used it on one of guys who did the real dancing in that number?

@PaisleyPajamas: Does she even have a day job anymore? I mean, I know she's a "star of the silver screen" and all...

If Mr. Butler is afraid of losing his abs, perhaps he should contact the guys who CGI'd them onto him in the first place for "300". It's like the least painful cosmetic surgery ever.

Don't quit your day job, Katie. Without the multi-camera setup and a lot of editing that performance was community theater at best.

Reminds me of the dance routine I used to perform for Mr. Pollstry when I was younger. But then I fell off the table and had to get an office job.

@Queen of the Passive Aggressives: Let's try to get them on with some real stud. Like Will Smith! or Travolta!

@MrInBetween: Or maybe "did it LIVE!"

Let's take a moment of silence for all the beards in tne world, and the lenghts they go to try to get laid.

No, really, is sad.

@Weegee's bored: No, but he's totally entranced by Rufus Wainwright.

@NinaHagen: That will never happen. She'd eat her arm first.

@Lizawithazee: I appreciate she is doing a good thing for her charity, that is not in question. But if Katie is gonna go on and on about how helpful dancing is, the least she could do in her video about dancing would be to actually dance.

@drunkexpatwriter: As beards go, she resembles a very thin Van Dyke. And really, I believe "breeder" is above "beard" on her job description.

I'm so glad to hear those crazy kids Travis and Shanna have been able to make it work. I've always pulled for them. They're kind of like Pam and Tommy without the sex tape and domestic abuse. Which doesn't mean they're better; just...different.

I thought it was particularly odd that Cat Deeley referred to Katie Holmes as "one of the biggest stars of the silver screen." Really? Her? What? Seriously?

Caius

Fortunately for Gerard, six pack abs can be painted on or enhanced in post. Sadly for Mrs. Cruise dancing skills are not so easily faked.

A woman pretending to be a woman pretending to be a man pretending to be a woman? So Victor/Victoria!!!

Why is Katie Holmes auditioning for a role that Anne Hathaway has already been cast in?

A threesome with a man and a robot? That seems about Tom Cruise's style.

@MsMuffinMcGuffin: Exactly. That was a lot of fancy walking, with a bunch a hand flicks and two kicks. But it wasn't dancing, really.

@serpentinefire: That was totally what I was thinking. I miss Joey Potter.

I guess Kelis's milkshake isn't what it used to be.

If her next homage to Judy Garland was a reenactment of her overdose, Tom and David Gest could finally be together.

Dude just shave down some body hair in the form of a six pack. from a distance, you're all good. then again, maybe you're one of those hairless sorts, all shiny, and now possibly blubbery.

hmmm, not as good as Joey Potter's performance at the Miss Windjammer Contest.

serpentinefire

@MrInBetween: Not unlike "banged the Hilton".

Next week Katie will develop a deep voice and try to grow a beard.

Wait - I forgot - she already IS a beard!

Except for how Judy had real talent, this is an uncanny recreation.

@scroll_lock: Yes!

secretagentman

@Weegee's bored: It certainly explains his penchant for prancing around the mother ship dressed like Liza.

We should retire "jumped the shark" and replace it with "danced the Garland."

@roxymilo: I found it very difficult/awkward to watch. Would have rather seen another dance performance by past contestants. Give me some Twitch!!

zaida

Tom Cruise is into Judy Garland? Hmmm.

@MsMuffinMcGuffin: Oh, NOW I get it. She's involved so she can benefit from the services of the charity.

That performance was to Judy's as Lorna Luft's career is to mine.

Avril... lame. I expected her down the Reverend Jim Beam straight from the bottle, not mixed Bahama Mamma.

So, is Katie now trying to actively out her husband so she can get out of the marriage? Or is she so tired of her contract that she just wants to make fun of him and humiliate him as much as possible?

Also- not a single second of that performance was anything that resembled LIVE. They never showed the audience and the stage in the same shot. And I hate to say this, because its totally a good cause, but the mere involvement of Katie Holmes makes me totally question that charity and everyone else involved.

Katie's a closer approximation of Judy Garland for marrying Tom Cruise than for this dance number.

I want to see Gwyneth EAT the chicken.

Katie didn't really dance, she strutted and shimmied. That kind of misses the point of the charity, eh?

Jon Gosselin just signed a new reality TV contract. Jon + dates = Was it something she ate?

Katie and Nicole both move like they've never had sex with a man before.
