British GQ

Like it or not, our eyes are now wide open.

But we're not referring to Nicole Kidman's choice of clothing—or lack thereof—on the cover of British GQ. Rather, it's the kinky stuff she says inside.

While the Oscar winner starts off slow, saying she's explored "obsession," "loss and love" and "the mundane aspect of marriage and monogamy" in previous relationships, she quickly proceeds to kick it up a notch…

In the movies, Tom Cruise defines excellence.

Whether he's playing an auto racer, fighter pilot or profane movie executive, he's simply the best.

So you gotta believe Cruise is going to be looking for the most awesome potential Jack o' Lantern there is for his Halloween honeys Katie Holmes and daughter Suri, right?

Or...maybe he'll just get whichever one Suri picks. Hard to say.

But if you're like us, you enjoy looking at celebs as they choose large orange gourds, so let's get to it, shall we?

Psst! Suri. Hey, girl. Now, generally you shouldn't talk to strangers, but we're uniformed officers of the law—the fashion law—so it's totes cool.

And we're going to bring some real talk here: Your parents are downgrading your style.

Clearly, you know how to work a look—is that your side-swept continental haircut and cashmere blankie? HOT! But Tom and Katie in their synced-up plaids look like they're ready to slurp unpasteurized milk after a long day slaughtering chickens.

Also, girl, you read the tabloids, you know that folks already look at y'all Cruises a little funny—NOT BEING JUDGY! But maybe avoid the matching outfits? Just watching out for you, Suri.

See you on Rodeo, sistah!

What is with TomKat dressing Suri up like a teenage fashion freak? High heels are not appropriate on a toddler!
—Liz Ruiz, via Facebook

Well, neither is fame, but Suri's parents have had no problem parading her around in public and in the media since the day she was born. How on earth is Katie Holmes supposed to boost her image as a fashionista without dressing up her 3-year-old like a tiny runway model for an itty-bitty Paris Fashion Week?

I mean what do you want Katie to do, concentrate on her fashion line? Yeesh.

Indeed, high heels were basically designed to make females look sexier. They lengthen the leg and tilt the hips forward. But given that the shoe height on Suri is pretty small, the real issue here may actually be something more serious...

Hollywood is aligned like so: Tom Cruise, first; Brad Pitt, second. Tom Cruise, Lestat; Brad Pitt, the other vampire. And so on and so forth. To tinker with the natural order of this star system is to tempt fate, and perhaps make the moon explode.

We don't want the moon to explode. We want to see Avatar in December.

So, if a phantom quote to a German newspaper has given you the big idea that Pitt and his movies are cooler than Cruise and his movies, we're here to set you straight: Tom Cruise is cooler.

Save the planet. Read our talking points.

Looks like Brad Pitt still has a few more years to go before he enters into his glibless, insult-hurling, couch-jumping phase.

Despite what seemed like an albeit uncharacteristic verbal sucker punch to Tom Cruise's moviemaking chops last week, a rep for the Inglorious Basterds thesp has denied that Pitt's ever had a bad word to say about his onetime costar.

On Friday, the German magazine Stern ran an interview with Angie's better half, quoting the reigning box office champ as slamming Cruise's rival Nazi-fighting film Valkyrie as, quite simply, "a ridiculous movie."

But this is one dogfight that ended before it began.

Oh yes he did.

Having adequately filled the public in on his and Angie's rampant randiness, past toking up habits and nonexistent mayoral aspirations, the one-man sound bite machine that is Brad Pitt is now paying lip service to a topic guaranteed to keep him (and his new movie) in the headlines: dissing former costars.

Or rather, one costar in particular.

The unexpected slam came when Pitt was promoting Inglorious Basterds by blessing the German magazine Stern with an interview and the questioner, clearly unversed in the ego-stroking required of such an activity, made the mistake of mentioning the year's other Nazi-fighting flick, Tom Cruise's Valkyrie.

"It was a ridiculous movie," Pitt said.

We'll give him this: The man knows how to play to his audience.

What do you do when some press-hungry whackjob tries to out Michael Jackson as your biological father? Well, if you're Connor Cruise—and we should all be so lucky—you keep your head down and your acting chops up.

The 14-year-old budding thespian (and son of Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman, thankyouverymuch) has signed on to star in his second big-screen offering, a remake of the '80s action flick Red Dawn.

Cruise the younger will play the son of the local mayor, who along with three pals form an unlikely insurgency against enemy invaders.

We'd say Tom couldn't be prouder of his boy, but, as dad's own United Artists is producing the film, he probably couldn't be all that surprised, either.

The King of Pop is about to become a movie star.

The judge hearing the execution of Michael Jackson's estate got the chance to play studio exec today, effectively greenlighting This Is It by signing off on a deal allowing Columbia Pictures to turn AEG's footage of the singer's comeback rehearsals (and, as it happens, final days) into a feature-length film.

The film, for which Columbia wasted no time setting the Thrillerific release date of Oct. 30, was approved after "very aggressive" negotiations.

Katherine Jackson and the attorneys for the estate, John McClain and John Branca, agreed to the deal on Friday. Per the terms, Columbia will pony up $60 million for rights to the footage of his London prep work.

To sweeten the pot, AEG promised that 90 percent of the film profits would be funneled back into the estate.

On your mark, get set…Fandango!
