Celebrities Undressed

One of my guilty pleasures is MSN.com's Celebrities Undressed feature by Kat Giantis. Every week MSN features photos of different celebrities wearing questionable threads. Included alongside each photo is a short satirical commentary. The commentary is always really witty and so hilarious. This one featuring Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes was especially funny to me this morning, so I wanted to share.


Match Point:
All right, that's quite enough, Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes. Here's the thing: While you may very well have the most amazing! magnificent! magical! wonderful! relationship (to borrow a few of your favorite superlatives) in the whole of romantic history, you're doing a lousy job of convincing us. Who told you that a couple in the grips of twoo lurve has to color coordinate? Or that the best way to get matchy-matchy is to divvy up the top and bottom of a double-breasted silver suit? Two people who are really comfortable and happy with each other typically don't need to try so hard to show it (or, in your case, Katie, slouch so hard -- seriously, quit it, 'cause you're risking the emergence of a mighty hump). And Tom, as you've noted time and again, your wife is a strong, confident woman, which means she doesn't need you awkwardly leading her by the hand all the time like she's your doddering aunt from Poughkeepsie out for a night in the big city. Just relax, guys. Take a deep breath. Throw on some clothes from the Gap (and maybe pick up some casualwear for the party dress-pooped Suri while you're at it). Let your arms fall to your sides and allow your digits to intertwine in a natural manner as you walk with your shoulders back. Go on, give it a try. At the very least, you might convince us that you like each other as much as you profess to love each other.

Katie looks especially tall here.. she must be wearing super high heels. This a funny pic. I have to admit, I like to read the celeb gossip sometimes. It feels so wrong.. but, yet, I can't resist the sweet temptation of not being productive for a few minutes.

Hilarious. I'm going to have to check into this column.

Girl- I get to check out Katie's acting chops this Friday. She is in a play on Broadway. I'm kind of afraid for her.
