Who Else Thought Katie Holmes Sucked???
Everyone kept hyping it up, and it was mediocre at best!
She "moved" more than she actually danced, and her singing was way weak.
Watch Mrs. Tom Cruise's Judy Garland tribute on So You Think You Can Dance? last night (above).
Thoughts????
P.S. It was pre-taped and not done before a live audience. It could and should have been soooo much better!































































It's for a good cause…anything to promote the foundation is fine with me!
sucky McSuck face.
ohh wow… that was… wow.. interesting
She just didn't dance at all! I really don't understand why they hyped it as a dance routine. It was simply a tribute…She was a good lip singer i guess…
1st yeah shes shit
i don't think she sucked at all
That was singing? More like labored breathing and yelling. What dancing? She did a couple of poorly executed high kicks and jazz hands. I expected more from a Broadway veteran.
wow first commenter!..honored..anyway…i didn't think she "sucked" per se…i mean she did an okay job…but she's better off acting…scratch that…she's better off parenting.
)
blaahhh
where was the dancing? she just walked around basically!!! britney performed better @ her "comeback"!!!
Honestly, the performance went well and all, but I was a bit disappointed since I thought that she'd, you know, actually dance.
yeah ok it was for a good cause blah blah but she didn't dance. She just walked around. She wasn't "dancing and singing" - she was walking and lip syncing. FAIL
It was lip syncing and a lot of kicking and high-stepping around the stage….
The cause is good..dance for kids…but Katie Holmes was a bad vehicle for that message.
OMG
KAT sucks
Katie is still that little girl Tom keeps attempting to make into a woman
It looked like Suri "dancing" (or strutting around at best) in a woman's body
An eating disorder still lurks for sure..
After viewing this clip…..I think your comment "mediocre" was being polite~!
she has pipes - but her "dancing" was more "choreography"
No Perez she didn't suck…you suck you fat bitter KUNT! God I hate you…bitter , twisted piece of shit
fuck off perez.haven't u been dissing her all the time?so regardless of what she does u'll always find something to hate!and all these brainless fucks will agree with u.gee americans.
I was impressed with her singing however the dancing left a lot to be desired. The choreography was horrible and was far too simple. She needed to either be able to NAIL a routine or not do it at all. She looked very pretty though….
she didn't suck
No one can live up to the Legendary Judy Garland. Holmes didn't even sing the correct lyrics. BOO HISS Get off the stage!
She didn't even dance! She just strutted on stage in her high heels, wiggled her hips a bit. No tap, no jazz, no spins. The back-up dancers did all the dancing.
Big time jazz hands going on here. WTF?
im just confused arnt you suppose to have some dance in musical theater and singing too, i just saw a girl walk around and move her lips any fuck could do that!
It is television moments like this that give so many shietious actors, singers and dancers hope that they too can have mediocre careers.
At least there is some underlining cause that this mess is supporting.
When did she turn 45. She's aged so much. Why prays someone who's singing to a very edited back track version of herself plus her dancing was nothing to brag about.
Judy Garland would have preferred Peter Allen's fancy feet over Mrs. Tom Cruises.
I don't think it's fair to judge her against, say, the other dancers on the show. She hasn't had training, she did this gig for charity and an important charity at that. So I give her props for that, even though she didn't do anything spectacular.
I could have done without her singing, but I am glad she is lending her name to something that isn't connected to weirdness and Scientology.
it was a broadway performance. . . not a "dance off" that's how traditional broadway dancing is done. Very technical and from that stand point, its good
it's was ok, considering that she isn't a pro…
at least the backup dudes knew how to dance!!
Agreed!
she didnt even dance, but its for a good cause so im okay with it. could have been better!
She did fine to me
she is lame. the whole time i just kept thinking wtf is she even doing on this show.
WOW! that sucked big monkey ass! Katie Holmes was never a good actress and by the looks of this craptastic peformance she is NO broadway singer or dancer. She is better off been a house wife for crazy Tom Cruise!
I think Katie did a great job but I do actually hate this song.
Seriously? I was surprised by how much I liked her performance… I thought she sang great and though the dancing wasn't over the top mindblowing, it was pretty appropriate for what she was doing, and considering she's not a 'dancer' I thought she did great! Go Katie =)
rather than focusing all of our attention on this particular routine,
we should celebrate the better dances of the season.
wednesday night's cancer tribute, choreographed by tyce diorio and danced by melissa and ade, was beautiful.
way more worthy of a post than this number.
She did what she had to do and she did it well. It wasn't a very good dance routine, but whatever, it's for a good cause and she ain't no pro
Is it just me or doesn't she look really OLD in the face?? Yeah, I think the dancing was just OK….she did nothing special….and it was obvious she was lip synching to something she pre-recorded……which wasn't terrible, but nowadays they can make anyone sound good with the right studio equipment…..I am sure she can't sing very well on her own (i.e., accapella)
it´s not that she sucked, but she´s not the best either !
AWKWARD…
I don't get it -
1. Lip synced the song, which there was no need for since she didn't actually dance.
2. Her big dance moves were step - touch - step, which is equivalent to standing there and swaying, and the only time she moved from one place to another is when a bunch of people manhandled her into doing so -
OH WAIT - SHE'S USED TO THAT… PROBABLY CAN'T REMEMBER TO WALK AND CHEW GUM ON HER OWN ANYMORE EITHER…
Nothing Wrong With That! Nice! Given She's Divorced TC Now … Very Kewl That She's About 2 Bloom!
Remember all the hype for Brit's comeback?
SUCKED TOO.
Not only can she not sing, but she can't dance either! Kinda embarrassing.
IT'S
A
LOT
BETTER
THAN
YOU
COULD
EVER DO
PEREZ!
SO
STFU!
The guys did all the dancing!
By the way, don't you think she caught her husband's way of talking and body language? Creepy!
I think she did okay. She looked good. Her singing was good (even though it was lip synched) but she obviously sang the song at some point.
IT WASNT THAT BAD… PLUS, ITS FOR A GOOD CAUSE!
.
.
.
AND I MEAN, COME ON ITS KATIE HOLMES…
.
.
.
NOT BEYONCE!!!!!!!!!!
It was fine. Not amazing but not horrible. It was pleasing to watch.
At least her hair looked good.
Errrr…the other dancers were fantastic lol….she was just walking around and posing really..?! but no one can say she doesn't look absolutely stunning….and if its for charity, who really cares anyway?
I thought it was amazing. Katie Holmes gave a great performance. Her facial expression, energy.. everything was great. Katie has wonderful talent. Stop hating on her. If you hate Tom, then hate Tom. Katie has done nothing wrong. Who cares if she married a complete douche bag? Miley Cyrus took slutty pictures, Lady Gaga can't sing to save her life, Lindsay Lohan's a mess and the list goes on. If Katie stook up for the gays, you would be kissing her ass right now, Perez. It would be Miley Cyrus all over again. You're at liberty to like and dislike whoever and whatever, but as said earlier; Katie has done nothing wrong. You're just a prick.
But as for her dancing, there was really nothing there. I'm a little disappointed because I was expecting a lot more. Her presence was great though and it was fun to watch.
Katie Holmes, you are so much love.
I think she did {surprisingly} awesome!
Her voice reminded me of Mel Gibson's scary girlfriend's.
It was really terrible. She's a founder of Dizzy Feet?? Maybe they should find a better spoke person.
She did a great job. What you're missing is the tap. I hope she keeps doing stuff and not resign herself to just being Mrs. Cruise. I liked it!
It was cue. but I still think he's Gay and she's under contract!!!
Re: paniikd – Agreed! She didn't dance AND didn't evoke the Garland drama. 1. There must be a Garland biopic in the works … Is she trying out??? 2. She doesn't fit the Garland experience. You need someone with the drug induced, frantic shaking with shorter legs (if you've seen the original) … Katie doesn't understand … someone like Christina Aguillera or WOW! Britany ???!!! Also, you have to have the Garland haircut to pull this off.
I would have to see a better copy of the video before passing judgment. You can't compare it to Garland, she was one of a kind. Katie Holmes certainly isn't a Florence Foster Jenkins, either. She did what she did for a great cause and did something she doesn't do often. Give her credit for that!
yep, pretty pathetic. must be frustrating for all those real dancers and singers watching this. anything for charity is good tho', right?! like her hair!
It wasn't BAD it just wasn't impressive. She just did a lot of fancy walking around the stage and jazz hands, I didn't see any actual dancing.
Eh not bad. I think it would have been better live, but then Tom Cruise would have probably bought out every seat in that place just to make sure no one tried to bring Katie back to the real world. God I miss her Dawson Creek days.
She really didnt dance. However, I thought her singing was very good. It's for a good cause. Anything that keeps children involved with music and performance doesn't "suck".
considering it was for charity….the fact that she showed up was nice. but i agree all the hype let me down. she can carry a tune . the lip sync sucked and she really didi not dance!! so i dont blame Katie I blame Sytycd. they should have known better. they could have just said she is performing and leave it at that.
great job Katie
poor perez
this gurl has nice legs!!!!
Where was the dancing? I'm sorry, did I miss something other than her walking around and kicking her leg once?
It was "beginner" level!!!! Really, I would have expected much more!!!!!! I know this was taped about 2 months ago, and they did like 8 takes. I'm surprised that this was the best of the lot. It was just so so for a "professional". That's it! : )
I think it's good actually, I definitely love it!
she failed at both miming and dancing..
for what it was - she did not suck at all . . . i've seen sooooo much worse from hollywood . . .
I am a horrible person b/c I just realized that I wanted this to suck because I believe she sold her soul to scientology to become rich and famous. However this didn't suck and it was for a charity, which I hadn't realized. BUT- hasn't she been rehearsing for more than three months now? Where was the actually DANCING? My first show was a musical-theatre,black comedy in-the-round. We had to sing. We had to dance. We had ballet numbers. We had to be funny. We had to be dark. We had to be mysterious and we had frozen cues. And we had to do this all while making sure that the entire theatre (@400 people seated around an encircled stage) could see us in our entirty. All that took less than 2 months rehearsal. Granted, we didn't have the shiny stage or piano or male dancers that Ms.Holmes had, but it was still very tough and we still brought it together in record time. I just didn't see the dancing here. The only compliments I can offer are these: It was for a very, very, good cause. She got in a couple of good high kicks and didn't screw it up. But I'm afraid they may have forgotten to do the old "Merde!" tradition backstage.
I don't get it,..her do judy garland…why oh why?.. she lip sang…so she's not a singer,…she's not a dancer..but everyone was raving about how awesome she performed with only 2 weeks to learn the routine…..come on..2 weeks? ya it looked like 2 weeks of worth of practice. soooo, it's performances like that, that lets us lay people give the talented people in the industry much more credit.
omg i want to cryyy how pissed off i am. weve been hearing about her stupid bullshit routine for SOOOO long. she like gets photographed in her little dance outfits acting like she actually dances.
SHE WALKED AROUND A STAGE.
and her voice is so strained.. urgh.
she didnt even really dance.. more like walked//strutted around.
It was beyond boring. She didn't even dance: She just kicked and mugged. I couldn't even finish watching it — did she actually do something other than kick in the final minute?
Let's be a big star and pretend like that is license enough to just WALK AROUND THE FU~&ING STAGE and PRETEND LIKE I'M DANCING. Suck.
I can't do that!! Can You? She looks good.
Re: Sawyer425 – TO EVERY NON-AMERICAN ON THIS SITE: YOU CAN AGREE WITH US OR YOU CA N DISAGREE WITH US. BUT IF YOU DISAGREE WITH US, STOP SAYING "Stupid Americans" or "Typical Americans." WE ARE NOT TYPICAL. And begining to understand that that's what urkss you the most. You moan and complain about our thinking and in the same breath force a lack of culture down our throughts. Our thoughts are as important as yours, and if you came over for a little visit, most people would be gracious hosts and tell you stories about their families dating back to when they arrived at Ellis Island from EUROPE. We still have our cultural traditions. You see it in China town, The Greek Neigborhood and Market, the little Lithuanian Place down my street that makes the best pizza, SNF, The Fourth of July, The Wall. Millions of ways. We know who we are. Do you? Or is all you know is that a lot of people say "stupid Americans" and "dumb Americans," so even though you're not really sure why other than th poor representations on the tube, you repeat the phrase. Baaaahhhhhhhhhhhh. You're a sheep, bleeting the same old thing.
DANCING? SHE DIDN´T DANCE AT ALL…SHE WAS MORE LIKE WALKING ON STAGE AND LIFTING HER LEG FROM TIME TO TIME…I JUST COULD NOT STOP STARING AT HER HUGE HIPS AND THIGHS…THEY ARE ENORMOUS!
wow. she looks ooooold.
BORING! And I almost didn't recognize her with Tom holding her by the arm the whole time…!
Well, it was a Broadway number; I thought she did a pretty good job of it. Not much footwork, obviously by design. It was professional enough for what it was, and she pulled it off. Decent voice, and she was on key. OK, so it's not Garland, but who ever thought they'd see this coming out of Katie Holmes? If she had as much stage time and rehearsal as Garland did, you'd see massive improvements from Katie. Whatever.
Catherine Zeta Jones would have been a much much better choice!!
I like the idea that she's supporting this foundation. And she has a pretty good singing voice, assuming they didn't digitally alter it. However, I prefer the pre tomkat katie holmes.
I would give her proper credit if the "appearance" was actually live. I was disappointed to be fooled into thinking she would actually be at the show and not just watching it from home in her viewing room with Tommy.
I don't know, I thought that was alright!
Not too bad, if you ask me.
bad
test
I liked it. Howevah, she seems a tad coked out. Even though people never out her, she has always given me that vibe.
go be tom's housewife
Brainwashed scientology bitch, you can´t take her seriously!
bitch
beatyful
52 ft pipsqueak…I know a 15 year old with 5,000,000,000 times more talent then that. Katie wants t be something she's not, sad really, sad.
I..uh…well, this was a DANCING show, right? I thought there would be more, well, dancing. My invalid grandmother could have pulled off that "routine". Amazing voice, but this isn't American Idol.
for not being a dancer, she did pretty good… i would love to see you try to dance, and no, your chicken dancing doesn't count.
