Cruise puts baby on hold for fans

Tom Cruise will meet fans at the London premiere of Mission Impossible 3 on Tuesday after a last-minute decision not to return to his new child. The star was in Rome on Monday for the world premiere, telling reporters he would fly straight back to be with fiancee Katie Holmes and daughter Suri.
But he later changed his mind, saying Holmes persuaded him to continue his European promotional tour.
"We discussed it. She said 'You know, things change,'" he said.
The London screening at the Odeon Leicester Square will be followed by a French premiere in Paris on Wednesday.
"I realise the fans are going to be there in London and Paris and, you know, everything is cool," he said. "So we're going to hit it. We're going to bang it."
The change of heart follows a surprise appearance at the press conference for the film in Rome.
He originally told reporters: "I'm going to be here for a few hours, and then I'm going to get on a plane and go back to Katie and Suri."

"My mission impossible was to be here today. I didn't want to come. My daughter was just born, and I didn't want to leave her and her mother."
He later joined other cast and crew members to greet thousands of fans in the city's Piazza del Popolo.

He told them: "I want to thank you for the warm welcome that you've given to my daughter Suri and my fiancee Katie, and I just love you all."
The actor said he would start planning his wedding to Holmes when he returns to the US.
"That stuff is actually going to happen in the next couple of weeks. We are going to decide where and when and how," Cruise said.
"Really whatever Kate wants, you know."
Suri was born in Los Angeles on 18 April and the couple said the name meant "princess" in Hebrew and "red rose" in Persian.
Her birth was "everything we wanted it to be and more", Cruise said, adding that "it was really very spiritual".
"I look at Kate and my admiration and love and respect for her, although I didn't think it could get any more, it became more. It was very beautiful."
He also revealed the "teamwork" the couple use to look after their new child.
"I changed her first," Cruise said. "I change diapers all the time. I have to tell you I love it.
"We have a whole system worked out. It's the B and B - she does the breast feeding and I do the burping and changing the diapers."
Mission Impossible 3, also starring Oscar winner Philip Seymour Hoffman and Ving Rhames, will be released around the world from 3-5 May.

So then she will be breast feeding? What happened to the syrup she was supposed to get instead??? Who really believed that he wasn't going to attend these premieres?? He's a glib midget media whore!

Lies. Lies. Lies. yeah.

The lies always trip a person up eventually ... tell too many and it becomes difficult to keep track of them. No doubt Cruise's big yap will soon expose him as the fake father he is.

signifying nothing."

(well, not really. But that's what the commercials make it look like.)

Well, Tommy, I imagine Kate wants to see you pelted with cans of diarrhea and then sodomized to death. I know that's what I want.

^^^frickin hilarious, teceth...hot tea just came out my nose. owww, it burns!

"Really, whatever Kate wants, you know."

Wow, it's touching how devoted he is to a woman who just gave birth to someone else's baby. Does this mean we aren't going to see him on Maury screaming that she's slept with at least 200 guys while they've been together and he's 150% positive the kid isn't his?

LMAO

Why in the hell are they first going to plan the wedding now? Hadn't she been pregnant with that pillow long enough for them to plan a wedding? Maybe they were all booked up on Xenu or whatever planet his relatives come from.

Katie is probably so programmed that he has her and baby on pause button while he is away.
