Tom and Katie: Is it real?

hey hey now...lets keep this thread on track PLEASE!!

The Tom Cruise-Katie Holmes wedding will be a little different than most. Expect a bride’s side, a groom’s side and a Scientologist’s side.

That’s because Cruise is planning to fly over all the big name celebrity Scientologists to his European (Paris or Rome — take your pick) wedding in a plane he’s chartered especially for them. Sources tell me that Leah Remini, Kirstie Alley, Jenna Elfman, John Travolta, Kelly Preston, and Priscilla and Lisa Presley are all on the manifest. Remini is among the few people in the world to have actually seen Cruise and Holmes’s baby daughter, Suri, in person and commented on her.

Indeed, only members of Cruise’s Scientology circle were offered to the press as those who’d seen Suri before her pictures appeared in Vanity Fair.


The plane is being booked by Cruise’s personal staff, and should leave Los Angeles several days before the Nov. 18 wedding in Italy (or France).

The guest list, insiders say, also includes all the top dogs at Scientology, including leader David Miscavige, Helio and Earthlink founder Sky Dayton, as well as Cruise’s best friend, Tom Davis, son of actress Anne Archer. Davis was Cruise’s constant companion in between Cruise’s Penelope Cruz and Katie Holmes chapters. He turned up unexpectedly at the premiere of "Collateral," where guests were surprised by his resemblance to the movie star.

The Presleys are likely guests at the wedding for another reason. Insiders are quick to point out that in 2000, Priscilla — an active Scientologist — was appointed to the board of directors at MGM, the company that owns United Artists and the place where Cruise has now found refuge after his very public embarrassment with Paramount.

Sharp-eyed observers will also be looking for members of the Feshbach clan, the controversial, Palo Alto-based investors who have donated millions to Scientology and run a couple of their centers. Daughter Jessica was Katie Holmes’ assigned watcher when the "Dawson’s Creek" actress first became involved with Cruise. With all of Holmes’ close pals gone since that period — including former hometown best friend Meghann Birie and actress Rebecca Gayheart, among others — it should be interesting to see if Feshbach is the bride’s matron of honor.

Is Suri going to be there?

TomKat had quite a hefty appetite earlier this week and decided to splurge their money on the priciest steaks and most delicious desserts they could find.

Tom Cruise reportedly dished out $10 000 on a steak dinner for his fiancée Katie Holmes - even though the brunette was said to just have picked at her food. (She was probably too concerned about fitting into her wedding dress.)

The cutie-patootie turned controversial star took the mother of his daughter, Suri, to Mastro's Steakhouse in Beverly Hills where he hired a private dining room, usually booked for groups of 15 or more.

Allegedly suffering from pre-wedding jitters Katie is reported to have "barely touched her grilled sea bass." However, according to In Touch magazine, Tom ate a huge porterhouse steak, a Caesar salad and three side dishes of wasabi mashed potatoes, French fries and onion rings followed by cheesecake and chocolate-covered strawberries.

But don't for a second think that Katie has turned frugal. The glossy also reports that the bride-to-be will be wearing Clive Christian No. 1 perfum, one of the most expensive perfumes in the world, which retails for $2350 an ounce.

Wow, one flippin' ounce of perfume is as much as my mortgage payment in DC. (homeowner's fees included)

That's some serious perfume. It better do something else besides smell good...

[Stella]

And I thought MY perfume was expensive. WTF. $10,000 steak dinner? Does the cow sing and dance beforehand? Was it encrusted in platinum?

UGH.

[DCJenn]

or like in Hitchiker's Guide to the Galaxy, point out where the best steaks are...

The BFF-ization of Brooke Shields and the Cruise family continues. Not months after Tom Cruise publicly slammed Shields for her use of antidepressant drugs during post-partum depression, now, says Page Six, Shields will be a guest at the upcoming TomKat nuptials. Recently, of course, Shields and Katie Holmes were spotted yukking it up at a party, and Shields has forgiven Cruise, enough apparently to attend the wedding in Italy. Maybe she can take one of the expensive towels Cruise plans to give out home to Oprah, who won't be attending – even though she endured Cruise's couch-trampolining antics last year. Meanwhile, erstwhile BFFs Victoria and David Beckham are still, says People, scratching their pretty heads over a gift. And Posh is choosing between "six or seven" different outfits to wear to the big event. Finally, in case you really wanted to know, E! Online's Marc Malkin reports that Tom will be wearing some pricey drawers -- he got six pairs of GrigioPerla briefs for $315 the other day in L.A
