ABERDEEN, Wash. - More than a thousand cheering fans who turned out Tuesday night to greet movie star Tom Cruise were delighted by a bonus — he brought fiancee Katie Holmes.
Cruise, in town for a makeshift premiere of “Mission: Impossible III,” signed autographs and briefly played a snare drum as a high-school marching band played the theme from his new movie.
Cruise and Holmes, who had a baby girl last month, arrived fashionably late — about a half hour after the star had been expected.
The 175-foot red carpet was borrowed — from a Seattle event planner — but that didn’t matter to the throng of fans and curious onlookers who had gathered at the entrance to the SouthShore Mall Cinemas.
Cruise’s visit to this blue-collar timber town near the Washington coast has been front-page news for days.
Cruise was to attend the private screening at the mall cinema with lucky contest winner Kevin McCoy and 150 of his friends.
McCoy won an e-mail contest sponsored by “M:I3” studio Paramount Pictures and Yahoo.
This is not Aberdeen’s first brush with fame. Another lucky resident won an MTV contest in 1996 that brought Metallica to town.
Also, Aberdeen is the hometown of late Nirvana frontman Kurt Cobain.
Cruise fans began lining up at barricades around the mall’s rear parking lot early Tuesday morning, and dozens broke into a dead run to secure the best spots once uniformed mall security guards removed the barriers shortly after noon.
Not all of Aberdeen’s 17,000 or so residents were high with anticipation.
“I will not be there,” supermarket worker Tanya Murray told The (Aberdeen) Daily World last week. “I couldn’t care less that he’s coming. I like his movies, it’s just everything else. He seems to be such a jerk.”
Cruise has been in the public eye this past year as much for his off-screen antics as for his on-screen work. Feud with Brooke Shields. Interview spat with Matt Lauer. Widely mocked couch jumping on “Oprah” over his love for Holmes.
Two Aberdeen radio stations called off couch-jumping contests scheduled for Tuesday after Paramount intervened.
“They felt it reflected poorly on Tom’s image,” said Tom Schlaht of Selmer’s Home Furnishings, which had provided a sofa for the contest.

Ok, the pillow/baby/whatever is supposedly 3 weeks old and she's running around the country helping him promote his rapidly failing film? Bloody hell. And quite frankly, I think the couch-jumping contests were in excellent taste.

They left the baby with her worshippers.

Well, we all know she MUST be breastfeeding...why else flash her nursing bra for all the world to see.

I wish I had cared enough to drive the 2 hours and spend the gas money to go heckle Tom Thumb and his pillow-bearing, I mean child-bearing, woman Kate.

He's doing Tiffany-style mall tours? Not good.

So many PR blunders! If he had just shown up to those couch jumping contests in fun, it would have done his image a world of good. Not like I care considering I hate the man but he's exceptionally dumb on top of everything else and takes himself way too seriously.

I'm ashamed at some of you that live close enough to Aberdeen. How dare you pass up the opportunity to huck a rock at his head.

No, the baby is with the surrogate, its real mother, who is breastfeeding and generally doing what a mother should do with a newborn. I wonder when she's contracted to hand the kid over to her proud 'parents'. Hey, I just thought. Debbie Rowe is a bit short of cash these days - do you think she popped one out for them??

But of course if KatIE Holmes adopted the baby, she is now the baby's REAL mother.
