No Love For Katie
Filed under: Broadway Babies > Katie Holmes
Poor Katie Holmes.
Looks like her marriage to Scientology princess Tom Cruise has ruined her career. Or basically her image.
Execs for Broadway's All My Sons were hoping that a big name could drive up ticket sales. In the same way that having "stars" like Mario Lopez in A Chorus Line and Clay Aiken in Spamalot helped boost sales.
So getting a real celebrity would guarantee good sales you'd think?
But not when half the world probably thinks you're being brainwashed or crazy for marrying Cruise.
According to reports, ticket sales for Holmes' Broadway debut at “definitely off from what the production hoped. You can’t say it’s the economy, because there are shows, like ‘Mamma Mia’ that are selling out.”
So what are the producers to do? They're blaming it on Katie's Dawson Creek days.
One source says, “It’s not that Katie’s bad in the part. She’s good enough. The producers are just getting the feeling people still want to view Katie as sweet little Joey Potter.”
Hah. Yea right. That was too long ago, and too much has happened with her and Cruise to even remember her B.C. (Before Cruise) happy days.
As for Jackie Green, the publicist for the shiteous show, she says "That information is totally false. There is a healthy advance for the show, and there is no chance of the run being shortened."
We'll see!

Woe is Katie Holmes….WTF!!!…like Bitch you did this to yourself…you're husband is CrAzY!!!!!
she looks soooooooooooo old now that the aliens have gotten a hold of her
what moron in their right mind would think Katie Holmes would sell tickets. Her crazi-ass scientology sillines has eclipsed any acting skills she may have had. People just think she is a nut…..and don't even get me started on Tommy. I have not seen a movie of his in YEARS…..I don't even watch the reruns of Tom's movies (altho I will look at the volley ball scene from Top Gun - remember when Val Kilmer was HOT….and Rick Rossovich…Yumm).
SHE MARRIED TOM, BECAUSE HE IS TOM CRUISE, NOW HER CARRER SUCKS, GET OVER IT KATIE! YOUR ACTING DAYS ARE OVER!
Andy, baby…
I've got to bounce. Keep these bitches in check, but don't give them too much attention, ok? Remember. That is what they want from you. And I know you are to proud to give them what they want. Maybe I'll be back later to chew on your ass a little. I'll be missiin ya cutie.
lol THAT sucks… she seems to be unhappy… B.C. she SMILED..
shes also aged ALOT..
oh whatever….its her hideous haircut…
Why does she work anyway? Isn't she being well-paid for being a beard?
first?
Not a bit surprising since everything her
Scientolo-closet-case-doucebag "husband" touches turns to turd!
whatever….its her hideous haircut and her rolled up jeans thats driving people away…
It's not the KATIE factor…
there is a big difference between a play like Spamalot and
Mamma Mia and ALL MY SONS.
The play Katie is in is a huge huge snooze-fest. We have all seen it once at least. OR we were forced to read it in high school!
That is enough.
If she had taken a role in something light and funny it would be a different story.
IT IS NOT KATIE"S FAULT>
although her husband is a weirdo…I used to love him…:( no more
Tom is a virus!!!!
A FLESH EATING VIRUS!!!!

Re: Leona$ Gho$t – WHAT'S UP, I'VE MISSED YOU ON HERE!
hey Katie…….. the circus is hiring !! they are looking for a bearded lady
Well people are turned off by the scientology thing. Same for Tom Cruise. Im sure people would still be flocking to his movies if he didnt jump on couches or make scientolo-videos, or call Matt Lauer "glib."
Re: krazihottkelli/bitchygrl –
that is an interezting point…short hair….baggy rolled up jeans…baggy shirts…lol Tom's just trying to make her fuckable….
Re: CarrotTops –
I'D RATHER STICK A Q-TIP IN MY EAR THAN WALK ACROSS THE STREET TO SEE THE BITCH!
Re: krazihottkelli/bitchygrl – WHAT'S UP GIRL!
Re: LettyB – GIIRRRLLLL, REMEMBER I WAS ON VACATION! WELL, I'VE BEEN BACK A FEW DAYS BUT MUST HAVE MISSED YOUR THREADS. ANYHOO IT'S FUN TO BE BACK ON PEREZ! I BET KATIE SAID THAT ABOUT BEING BACK ON THE "BOARDS" IN HER PLAY BUT DONCHA JUST KNOW THEY'RE GOING TO PULL THE PLUG ON THAT STINKER SHE'S IN??? WELL, NOT THAT IT'S THE PLAY'S FAULT, JUST WHO WOULD PAY TO SEE THE PRINCESS SCIENTOLOBOT??? IN DAWSON SHE WAS AT LEAST CUTE NOW SHE'S JUST PLAIN WEIRD, LIKE SHE'D GO AFTER ANDY27 IF SHE WEREN'T ALREADY MARRIED TO QUEER TOM!
I loved Katie and her girl next door style. She was one of my favorite celebs. Tom Cruise made her tainted and creepy to me. She appears that of a robot, down to having matching hair cuts with Suri… whacko Jacko looks more normal than this freak show at this point.
Re: Leona$ Gho$t – Well, I'd rather go to a sadistic proctologist than see another Holmes movie!
this is new york. NOT la.
people actually think with their frontal lobe and doesn't blindly follow the path simply because some celebrity's leading it.
Re: CarrotTops – OOOOOOh, that sounds like fun!
lol its coz katie holmes is boring now. is it any surprise no one wants to see her? tom cruise ruined her image
Katie is no longer appealing. Before she was with Tommy she looked happy, carefree, and like the girl next door. She was always smiling and looked like someone who would be fun to hang out with. Now she looks spacey, withdrawn, haggard, depressed, and robot-like. If this is her idea of looking sophisticated she's really missed the mark. It's a shame because she could have had a great career but being with Tommy has thrown that right into the crapper.
I would be inclined to take a production MORE seriously if it was lacking a "celebrity" billing. If I saw, say, Donny Osmond starring in "Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat", I would pass on that production and wait til someone else was starring.
IF I WERE HER I WOULDN'T WORK FOR SHIT………I'D JUST SHOP
I LIKE THEM TOGETHER THEY MAKE PRETTY BABIES
I think she's just mis-cast. The other shows are all kind of light, so "celebrity" is more of a draw for peope looking for that kind of a show. Kevin Spacey and Colm Meaney in Moon for the Misbegotten is a draw, because they are both very good and very interesting actors, and that's what they're known for. Katie may be trying to be "serious" but even in film she stinks as an actress, so who would want to see her on stage when the camera can't cut around her weird little screwups.

She doesn't have the chops. She should have tried Cabaret or something light.
It has nothing to do with Scientology or Tom Cruise. The girl can't act and she's proven it again and again. If Tom were on Broadway, I'd go see him. He's annoying personally, but has great intensity as an actor.
I think she needs to start doing what she wants to do with her career, and stop listening to Tom. She should have continued her role in "The Dark Knight" if she wanted her career to be bigger.
I don't associate her career with Tom Cruise… but the only roles that she ever gets are silly little girl roles (IE: Mad Money)…If she would get a SERIOUS role in a thriller, say like "The Hand that Rocks the Cradle" and did a good job, I would go see her.
dump Tom! even though you have a cute ass baby… rock on with that hair!
She looks ancient, grandma-looking. The Crusier ruined her career and her hair. BLAH!!!
I'm not kidding.. when my doctor said Holmes would be perfect to test out their new Electric Shock Treatment Machines.
Or it could have something to do w/ the fact that the bitch can't act.
poor Katie. she's almost unrecognizable these days. with those horrible hair cuts and her new stick thin figure, she looks nothing like she did right before her and Cruise started dating. she was gorgeous! she's still very young but i think she feels like she has to act and look more mature for her 45 year old husband. its not fair!
Jackie Green is full of shit. As for KH, she asked for this. She sucks scientology cock, gives birth to an alien (who is STILL on a bottle) and PASSES on her role in The Dark Knight. She couldn't open a brown bag let alone a broadway show.
Fuck her.

It's not like she has to work.
Katie needs to realize that she is not Nicole Kidman, she hasn't had a lot of great films. She did Batman and refused to do the sequel? She is only recognizable because Dawson Creek, thats it. She needs to be in more movies. But then again, she is married to that thing, and involved in a cult that demands a lot of weird stuff. At least Nicole managed to avoid being brainwashed.
Someone set me right if I'm wrong here, but……. was her career really on fire before Tom???? I mean, yes, Dawson's Creek had it's huge cult-like following, but past that she's done ……….? With Tom or Without Tim, she's as interesting as week-old bread, IMHO. I mean, wasn't she #267 on Cruise's Starlet-to-Wifey list, anyways? She wasn't even hottest to him before she took the bait…
Why is she even in here??? What has she done remarkable accept marry an alien????? And will somebody pahleeeeaze take the plug out of Suri's mouth!!!! Katie you cant keep her an infant forever…. let her mature normally. Jeezus have another baby or something!
You're a bigger bully than Jade Goody.
She looks AWFUL ! She use to actually be a really pretty girl, before she married Tom and got the family haircut. Remember how pretty she was when they were engaged. Crazy.
Someone needs to tell all these girls gettin the Bob cut that it DOES NOT look good at all. The only person it looks good on is Posh.
