A bit of a slow day in Hollywoodland and since I don’t feel like talking about teenage actresses’ jailed fathers - ahem, Hayden and Nikki - I shall devote this space to my new favorite budding starlet.
Suri Cruise is without a doubt the most stylish little tater tot in Babyville. The 2-year-old has been attached to equally stylish mommy Katie Holmes as they shuttle between the East and West Coasts.
Katie has been in New York City for a bit now while rehearsing for her upcoming Broadway debut in Arthur Miller’s All My Sons. When she’s not in the theater, she takes her mini me to kid-friendly Broadway musicals, frolicking on the swings in the park, and hanging out at the Chelsea Piers. It seems Suri is getting the hang of how to deal with the paparazzi.
Look, she’s even got her pose down pat.

UPDATE: According to the president of ABC, Katherine Heigl is “absolutely staying” on Grey’s Anatomy despite her recent shenanigans and rumors. So, rest assured fans, there will be no fallout (yet).
Perhaps to keep Ms. Heigl’s pretty pucker shut, ABC counters her I-wasn’t-given-good-material-to-deserve-an-Emmy-nod with this statement: “There’s an unbelievable storyline for her which is really central to everything that is going to on this season.” Hmm, does Izzie do something with the clinic Bailey put her in charge of? Does she have to decide between George and Alex? Do they kill her off with a brain tumor?? Tune in for the season premiere on Sept. 25.
Meanwhile, in other TV news…
Katie Holmes is doing a guest spot on ABC’s legal dramedy Eli Stone. The exec producer of the show worked with Katie during her Dawson’s Creek days (ahh those were the good ol’ days), and in his words “begged her” to do it. See if it’s any good on October 21st.
Wilmer Valderrama just announced that he is producing a comedy about what Young Hollywood is really like. Baby Dolls will be from the perspective of a female personal assistant to a celebrity and will be like hit show The Office. If you want to see Wilmer in front of the camera, the That 70’s Show actor will star in Fox’s new comedy The Emancipation of Ernesto.
Now, while I love summer and am already dreading Labor Day to roll around, a tiny part of me is excited for fall because: 1) Gossip Girl is back on Sept 1, 2) 90210 premieres a night later, 3) Private Practice finally returns Oct 1, 4) apple picking!
Hey, a girl’s gotta look forward to something. Tell me, what shows are you excited for?
What a happenin’ weekend in Hollywood!
- Katie Holmes is back in V. Becks’ life, helping the Spice Girl celebrate her birthday at a super star-studded dinner (Elton, Gwen, Eva, Kate Becks, Heidi, Will and Jada). Mrs. Cruise also feted the second birthday of baby Suri on Friday.
- Owen Wilson was by Kate Hudson’s side as she rang in her 29th birthday in Miami.
- Other lovebirds celebrating a birthday were Jessica Simpson and Tony Romo. Jess sang and fed Tony cake for his 28th.
- Not so happy couple news: Kanye and his fiancé Alexis have broken off their engagement though they remain friends.
- LiLo was spotted sipping vodka cocktails in New York City. No comment.
- Britney is in talks to do more episodes of “How I Met Your Mother,” though nothing has been finalized yet.
- Justin Timberlake and John Mayer both attended the memorial service for Cameron Diaz’s late father on Sunday.
And there you have it: a weekend recap in less than 150 words!

Dear Katie Holmes,
Your pal Victoria Beckham has been acting awfully chummy with a few other A-listers recently. 
First, she had birthday parties for Brooklyn and Cruz earlier this month and you were a no-show. Her new friend from Project Runway, Heidi Klum, and her daughter came, and so did Eva Longoria Parker. She missed you and Suri, and your other celeb couple friends, Will and Jada. And you two really must go shopping soon. Posh hit up Rodeo Drive with Eva last week to check out the new spring designer collections. She and David also had a lovely dinner at STK with fellow Brits Kate Beckinsale and her hubby, Len Wiseman, this weekend. 
Then yesterday, Vic and the boys celebrated Easter with Kate, Len, and their daughter at the Getty Center Museum. I hate to say it, Katie, but I think Kate is rivaling you on the best-dressed moms list (after Posh, of course). There is a new Becks in Victoria’s life, so you better swoop back in and resume the position of BFF!
XOXO
