Katie Holmes Talks Like A Robot


Katie Holmes has moved to Shreveport, Louisiana to begin work on her new comedy Mad Money, and apparently she really likes it there. You know, she thinks it's neat and stuff. As she told the Shreveport Times after visiting the local Target:

I met some really great people, and it was nice. They did recognize me, and it was a pleasure meeting them. We had nice chats about kids, and it was lovely.

All right - I just have to know. Was Katie wearing any kind of an earpiece when she gave this interview? Cause I think Tom might've been telling her what to say. That's exactly the kind of innocuous, inane patter you would expect from Tom - or someone with serious brain-damage. Honestly, is Katie even capable of speaking for herself anymore? Or is she just that dense and lame-sounding? I need to hear more. Like Katie talking about the character she's playing in the movie:

She's funny, she's smart and just a little bit misunderstood. ... She's involved in this crime, but she's sort of delighted to just be a part of something and have girlfriends for the first time. She's a type of person who creates a happier environment than she's actually in. ... I like that about her. She's a free spirit.

A free-spirit - oh, poor Katie, that's just a cry for help isn't it? Cause right now you're the opposite of a free-spirit. You're living in a gilded cage. Wait, I take that back - it's not gilded; it's got laser-beams for bars, and it's guarded by robots that look suspiciously like guys dressed in silver-painted refrigerator boxes with lengths of corrugated tubing for limbs. Tom made the robot costumes himself, didn't he Katie? And sometimes he wears one to bed, doesn't he? You sad, sad girl.
