More Katie Holmes Dance Deets
Filed under: Katie Holmes
Things are coming together over at So You Think You Can Dance.
The show has officially snagged Katie Holmes to perform a big Broadway musical-type dance numbe, and now, the nitty-gritty details are being revealed.
The dance will pay homage to the great Judy Garland, as Katie will dance and SING to the classic 1950's ditty Get Happy from the musical, Summer Stock. She will be joined on stage by eight lucky male dancers, who will wear matching suit and ties as Katie dons an all-black ensemble. An insider explains that "part of the set appears to be made from scaffolding, creating the illusion that she's dancing on a rooftop with a sky backdrop."
A witness revealed that at a recent rehearsal, Katie practiced by lip-syncing to a backing track and "seductively shake her hips" to the music.
Still no word on when this magical moment will air, but we're banking on the 100th episode on July 8th.
We only have on problem with this scenario: If they were planning a Judy Garland themed number, why wasn't Anne Hathaway asked to perform? She's the one with the big Broadway show revolving around the famed actress called Get Happy: The Life of Judy Garland.
Something just doesn't seem right about this. Any chance Anne will get screwed and replaced by Katie Holmes?!
We sure as hell hope not!

This sounds ridiculous!
She has done broadway before so its not like she some unknown actress.
I watched the Poko Pano fashion show that was held in Miami and there was not one woman of color
Is it that the designer would prefer to not have black customers or maybe she searched the
world and couldn't find a black model qualified enough to represent her line?
Has anyone ever noticed that Fashion TV never shows a black model for more than a second
Katie.. eat something!
Why is Katie doing this?
There is no reason why she should do reality TV.
What happened to that lovely young actress from the Dawson's Creek days and made a couple of interesting and fun indie movies.
So sad.
WTF……………
what's a dance numbe?
So I take it there's no movie in the works. What is it with her. Is this all Tom will allow her to do?
She went from being such a promising actress to now peddling her lesser abilities on a reality tv show (and I say this as someone who loves 'So You Think You Can Dance'
That is a horrible picture of her!
She looks very crackish in that shot.
Omg, she's a freaking giant
I heard a funny one this morning on the radio …. katie holmes is so busy doing broadway … acting and now so you think you can dance and tom cruise is saying so you think you can get away …
sorry it was funnier on the radio
Wow, Katie, welcome to the D-list!
Anyone else find this pic scary and disturbing?
Poor Katie, she looks like a ghost. She must be so depressed and/or exhausted. It's clearly taken a physical toll on her.
What an insult to Judy!
the reason anne cant do it is because she is doing 12th night ( which my friend is working props on)
trust me it could be alot worse then katie holmes
I can't wait to see this disaster in the making!
GROSS
That sounds stupid. Leave Get Happy routine to the great Judy Garland, the greatest entertainer of the 20th century. Neither Katie nor Anne could capture Judy Garland's greatness and complexity. Yall may just think of Dorothy but what about Carnegie Hall era Judy? No way in hell Anne could pull that off. This is just Harvey Weinstein's ways of begging for Oscars. And they use the worst, most scandalous Judy Garland book to milk as many tragedies and drug problems as usual rather than capturing the spirit of the woman as well. Just for show and exploiting the legend for attention and awards. So sick of biopics. And Katie Holmes needs to go away. What did she ever do to capture anyone besides Dawson's Creek before Tom Cruise?
DAMN….THOSE ARE SOME THUNDER THIGHS…….HER LEGS DONT FIT HER BODY…..
SHE LOOKS LIKE GOLLUM HERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
SYTYCD is one of the best shows on this summer and soon to be in the fall. I hope she doesn't ruin it. I really have no desire to see her dance.
she has a tiny head and it makes her look strange, stranger than usual that is.
Omg, SHE LOOKS 50 YEARS OLD .
she put herself in the situation, cant blame anyone, she knew exactly what she go herself into .
Used to be only talented people were on Broadway.
Hmmmm…..maybe it's a big "audition" for a show she wants to get into, or a way to announce she has already been cast in a show? Wasn't there some awful dancing and singing number out there not long ago that she did for a show? She was awful. She had such a promising career until meeting Tom Cruise.
type-o! u forgot the R on number my lovely perez!
Where's Tom been for the last few months? They are never together, it seems.?
…..I have nothing to say….
Ann Hathaway? What about Judy's own daughter LIZA…..No one can do Judy better. Is there a reason you don't think before you write?
She gets to do whatever she wants because her douchebag husband is one of the most powerful people in Hollywood.
.
What does a TV dance-reality show have to do with the Broadway show starring Anne Hathaway?
This story doesn't make much sense, Perez
shes gross
She doesn't need this, does she? Will she send any scientology hidden messages to the viewers? She has all the money and power in the world, why doesn't she follow Brangelina's example and try to do smth nice for other human beings?
No bad comment- I like her!
She needs to eat a potroast
Why does Tom Cruise ruin the career of whatever beard he's married to? he wasn't satisfied turning her into some anexoric middle-aged mom now she's got to resort to gigs on reality shows? Ugh! Pathetic. Doesn't her "allow" her to work on films or anything reputable? Is he afraid of letting his wife's fame or talent eclipse his own? It seems that way to me.
what'z up with her? she looks like she'z been gang-banged by a bunch of bikers in New Jersey…C'mon Tom, let her come up for air….I didn't know Scientology condones xxxxing your wife to death.
I love Katie.
she better not get replaced… katie looks nothing like her. judy is a hard enough role to take on for anne… no way could katie even attempt to do it.
Re: Alliestp – You're not much of a fan are you? Liza vowed long ago that she would never do her mother's work. Judy was quoted saying, "Always be a first rate version of yourself and not a second rate version of someone else."
