So, so sad.
Janet Carroll reportedly passed away Wednesday in NYC after suffering a long illness, and is survived by son George and daughter-in-law Lauren.
You may best remember Janet Carroll as Tom Cruise's trusting mother in the iconic 1983 film Risky Business, but the seasoned actress appeared in Memories of Me, Enough, Forces of Nature, Married with Children and Melrose Place among MANY others.
Janet was also a veteran stage actress, and began her fruitful career at the Kansas City Starlight Theatre.
A memorial service will be held Saturday in New York at the Advent Lutheran Church.
We only hope she has found her peace.
Our hearts go out to her family and friends during this difficult time.

Tom Cruise sits down with Playboy magazine, for an interview that's got errrrrbody talkin!!!
Suri's dad gushes about his success, love life with Katie Holmes, and admits that when it comes to kids, he's was born for the role of being a dad!!!
Cruise says:
"I've always had the same values. Family for me has always been important. When I shoot, everybody comes. When Kate's shooting, I'm there with her and the kids.
We're always together. I'm always around my mother and sisters.
I always wanted to be a father, a husband."
All together now, AWWWWWWWW!!!!
Now that we hear that, we're sure Tommy boy is a bit sad Katie ISN'T preggers again!

Our mullet quaff is teased, our jeans torn, and we just RIPPED the sleeves off our favorite tee…
‘Cause we just indulged in this MEGA clip-compilation from the upcoming hair-band musical film, Rock Of Ages!
After hearing Tom Cruise pour sweet, sticky liquid all over his body, we've been thoroughly electrified by the impending wrath of the Rock.
Watch Mary J Blige instructing Julianne Hough in the ways of man-pleasing while belting out Any Way You Want It, interspersed with TONS of sneaky peeks from the film (above)!
We are hella, HELLA pumped…

Mz. Jennifer Lopez is bringing in the cash and cashing in on this year's Forbes World's Most Powerful Celebrities list! But don't be fooled (by the rocks that she's got, got) — she's still Jenny from the block!
From On The 6 to America's hit TV show, J.Lo tops this year's list at numero uno, for her "career reincarnation" and for earning $52 million over the last 12 months!!
The annual list is based on money AND fame, with fame being defined as media visibility and social media presence!
While Oprah stays snuggled in at second place like last year, Justin Bieber follows right after the talk show legend, ranking at number 3 and earning $55 million.
Pretty impressive!
Though second (second is the best…?), Oprah STILL ranks as number one in TV/Radio AND in earnings, making $165 million in just this past year!!!

We are now exactly one month away from the Rock Of Ages film premiere and the flick’s star, Tom Cruise, is revealing more than just his bare abs!
The actor, who turns 50 (yes, FIFTY) in July, recently got quizzed by Playboy magazine for their June issue — and no topic was off limits!
While living life in the public eye and being subject to criticism, Cruise says he doesn’t think refuting rumors helps anything. Don't get him wrong, though — when he sues, he means it…ESPECIALLY if it involves his kids!
Tom reveals:

We LOVE this idea!!!
First she Danced With the Stars, then she shook her moneymaker in the Footloose remake, and now Julianne Hough wants to keep tapping her toes all the way to Oz!!
While speaking to Vanity Fair about her part in next month’s much anticipated Tom Cruise hair-metal flick, Rock of Ages, Julianne revealed her true dream would be to snag the the lead role in Wicked:
