Tom Cruise is still promoting Valkyrie, adding a little vacation time to his heavy work schedule in Rio de Janeiro. The Brazilian press tour doesn?t start for him until Tuesday, so he took his girls Katie and Suri to Rio early to do some sunbathing and helicopter riding.
Tom Cruise has arrived in Brazil to promote his latest movie, “Valkyrie.”
Cruise, his wife Katie Holmes and their daughter Suri arrived Friday night at Rio de Janeiro’s famed Copacabana Palace Hotel.
The Web site of the O Estado de S.Paulo newspaper says Cruise plans to visit several tourist sites in and near Rio before giving a press conference on Tuesday, the day “Valkyrie,” premiers in Brazil.

The pregnancy rumors are still following Katie, though, and she?s not helping. Or perhaps she doesn’t mind because she and Tom like those kinds of rumors. I have no idea, it?s anyone?s guess. Katie has been seen around Rio in loose-fitting clothing, looking, in the words of UK?s Sunday Mirror ?pale but happy?. Could it be first-trimester morning sickness?
Katie Holmes looks pale but happy as she leaves a hotel in Brazil with husband Tom Cruise and two-year-old daughter Suri.
Actress Katie, 29, appeared unsteady on her feet at one point and Tom placed a supporting hand on her back in Rio de Janeiro.
There have been fears that Katie - who has a tough stage role on Broadway in Arthur Miller’s All My Sons - has been pushing herself too hard.
From The Sunday Mirror
The rumors could be dogging Katie because she just finished her Broadway run. As we reported last week, OK! Magazine and other tabloids are all over this, but there is little evidence beyond Katie looking pale, or Tom Cruise putting his hand on her belly in a posed picture. I tend to think they like the pregnancy stories- those rumors are pretty nice compared to most of the other speculation about them.
Note by Celebitchy: Katie often wears blousy clothing, but time will tell.

Depending on your perspective on Tom Cruise?s popularity, his endorsement could go either way. But that hasn?t stopped Tom from declaring his support for Penelope Cruz for Best Supporting Actress at the Oscars. Penelope is a in a pretty tight race with Viola Davis and Amy Adams for Catholic-drama Doubt, Taraji Henson (The Curious Case of Benjamin Button) and Marisa Tomei (The Wrestler). This category is actually up in the air - no one has a really great shot at it, and will most likely be one of the big surprises come Oscar night.
So is it a polite, sweet gesture that Tom Cruise is publicly supporting his ex-girlfriend Penelope Cruz? I can?t tell. He was in Spain when he made the comments, and he?s still promoting the hell out of Valkyrie. One thing I?ll give Cruise - he really fulfills his publicity requirements to the fullest.
US star Tom Cruise said Tuesday he hopes Spanish actress Penelope Cruz, a former girlfriend, will win the Oscar for her role in Woody Allen’s “Vicky Cristina Barcelona”.
“It’s fantastic. I am very excited by her second nomination. I hope she wins,” he told reporters in Madrid, where he is promoting his new film “Valkyrie,” when asked about Cruz’s best supporting actress nomination.
Cruz’s family attended the Spanish premiere of the movie, about a plot to kill Adolf Hitler, at Madrid’s Teatro Real on Tuesday, Spanish media reported.
Cruise, 46 and Cruz, 34, met on the set of the 2001 film “Vanilla Sky”.
The couple, who spent long periods apart while filming, broke up at the end of January 2004, Cruise’s sister and publicist, Lee Anne DeVette, said at the time.
In an interview published Saturday in Spanish newspaper El Pais, Cruz said she wants to leave Los Angeles and divide her time between New York and Madrid.
“After a number of years in Los Angeles, I no longer want to live here, It will be better if I share my time between New York and Madrid, where my family is,” she said.
Cruz was nominated for best actress in 2007 for “Volver,” by Spanish director and longtime career mentor Pedro Almodovar.
The 81st annual Academy Awards will be held on February 22 at Hollywood’s Kodak Theater.

I have to give Penelope some credit too - she?s never really discussed in detail what happened between her and Cruise. The rumor at the time was that they were having difficulties with the long-distance thing, and she went off with Matthew McConaughey while they were filming Sahara.
Call me an old romantic, and accuse me of buying into Tom Cruise?s career resurgence a little, but I think Tom was really genuine in publicly stating his support for Penelope. And it is sweet, in my book. Praise Xenu!

This week?s OK! Magazine cover story is sort of hilarious. The piece seems entirely based on a photo taken of Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes as they exited the Ivy in LA last week. Tom Cruise was photographed - nay, posing - with his hand on Katie?s abdomen, which is apparently how babies are made!
OK! actually bothered to get some other sources besides the patented Xenu-impregnation, hand-on-belly photo evidence. According to OK!?s sources, Katie and Tom would both like to have another baby, which I actually buy. Tom, especially, I think would be happy to have another child, but he genuinely seems content for Katie to make her choices, which I give him credit for. I don?t in any way think that Tom is forcing the idea of another pregnancy down Katie?s throat. See? I?m trying to be nice.
When Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes exited the Ivy restaurant in L.A. on Jan. 21, the smiles on their faces as they glanced at each other said it all: “We’re in love!” But when Tom gently placed his hand over his beautiful wife’s belly and she clasped his hand and held it there, the message was even louder and clearer ? the couple have another baby on the way!
“It was identical to how Tom used to stand with Katie when she was pregnant with Suri,” an eyewitness tells OK!. “And the way they looked at each other! You could see the love in their eyes and there was a feeling that they were sharing something very special at that moment.”
Although Katie’s rep tells OK! she’s not expecting, everyone who knows the pair believes that if she’s not already pregnant, she will be soon.
“Tom would love to have another baby!” a friend of the actor tells OK!. “There’s nothing that gives him more pleasure than his role as a father.”
And, according to a Valkyrie set insider, the couple would be ecstatic if their second baby turned out to be another girl! “Suri has been such a joy for Tom,” the insider says. “As far as he’s concerned, he’d be happy to have another girl. Katie feels the same.”
From OK! Magazine
Another girl? Perchance another Suri doll that they can dress up in beautiful coats? That would be nice. Katie recently finished her Broadway run, and there?s been speculation that Tom and Katie will be moving to London to both try for West End theatre production this spring, but I don?t buy it. Valkyrie and Tropic Thunder were Tom?s comeback roles, and they did pretty well for his image. I suspect he?s going to declare victory and try to regain his action-hero status with some big, splashy movie. But maybe Katie can stay home, barefoot and pregnant.

With such a historically relevant film as “Valkyrie,” it’s no wonder Tom Cruise has been all over the world on his promotional duties.
And last night (January 26), the “Top Gun” stud was in Moscow, Russia for the big premiere, schmoozing with fans and posing for pics in a grey suit/white button-up/black turtleneck combo.

Earlier today, rumors began to circulate that Tom Cruise said he wants to play Captain Chelsey Sullenberger in a movie adaptation of the recent Hudson River plane crash. Seems like a viable story, considering that Tom is a huge self-promoter and that Hollywood likes to profit on real-life tragedies. If done right, a film about the Hudson River landing could be quite good, though predictable. It’s just a little early to be planning a project so soon after the crash. Also, Tom is ten years too young for the role.
Now it seems that Cruise said nothing of the sort - and if he did, he didn’t mean it in “that way.”
While the movie star?and avid flier?was quoted heralding U.S. Airways’ Capt. Chesley B. “Sully” Sullenberger’s heroic landing on the Hudson River last week and claiming that there might be “a movie in here,” Cruise’s rep denies that a big reenactment is in the works.
“There’s nothing here,” he told E! News.
The rumor mill went into overdrive with various tabloids and websites reporting a film was in the works based on sound bites Cruise supposedly gave to Entertainment Tonight.
“I was with people today and they said, ‘There’s a movie in here,’ ” the actor reportedly said. “I’m thinking about that.
“To have done such a heroic job…I know what it’s like, because we train for emergencies and then for it to happen and to have it turn out the way it did?that’s how we want them to end.”

A reporter could have made up the original Tom Cruise quotes, but I’m inclined to believe that Tom did actually mention a possible movie, and maybe even his own starring role. And then his reps had to play clean-up. Tom and Kate may be able to sell tabloid covers, but he’s not exactly on anyone’s list of top kick-ass movie heroes anymore. But because people are interested in his private life, it is interesting to see what kinds of role he chooses to resuscitate his career. On his IMDB page, he only has one movie in production, Men, which based on the description could either be a light-hearted romantic comedy or a heavy drama, it’s hard to tell.

Tom Cruise who normally holds Katie Holmes' hand or her back, swtiched things up in London and patted her belly. Is that Tom Cruise's way of say that Katie Homes is pregnant? If she wasn't skinnier than ever, I might believe it a little more that she was giving a Suri a sibling in 8 months. I am saying that amount of time because it was a month ago that we saw that cold sore on her lip.

Finished up with their red carpet obligations for the night, Tom Cruise escorted his lovely wife Katie Holmes to The Ivy in London for a post-premiere dinner date on Wednesday (January 21).
Walking hand-in-hand, the “Top Gun” hunk and his “Mad Money” bride smiled as they made their way past a crowd of paparazzi and into the upscale West Street eatery.

There have been some dribs and drabs of Tom Cruise news here and there the past few days, and some of it is really funny. Tom?s been in Europe promoting Valkyrie, and I?m starting to suspect that maybe the translations aren?t so great. There were a few headlines like ?Tom Cruise loves sausages? that cracked me up, but I couldn?t find his original statements.
Katie Holmes has joined him for the European tour, now that her play?s run is over. Yesterday, as they were exiting Berlin, they apparently made out in front of the trailing paparazzi, so that made even more headlines. Today they attended the UK premiere of Valkyrie. Katie looks surprisingly well-rested and put-together, donning an attractive black cocktail dress, black panty hose and short heels.
In other Tom Cruise news, Milk director Gus Van Sant has recently admitted that Cruise was his original choice for the role of Dan White, Harvey Milk?s assassin. It would have been interesting casting, but I doubt it would have worked.
Gus Van Sant has revealed that he originally wanted Tom Cruise to star in the Harvey Milk biopic.
The director said he thought Tom in the role of the outspoken gay politician’s assassin, and Sean Penn in the titular role, would get the fledging project off the ground. And he was keen to make the movie before the memory of the real-life Harvey Milk faded.
“I thought if I connected those two guys at the time I could go into the studio and say ‘look I have these two guys’ and they would do it. There was always the problem with the gay community aspect of the film so they needed a reason to overcome that fear that they had of making a film that wasn’t going to have a very big return money wise, so that was my plan,” he said.
Van Sant said that when the idea launched again, with a different writer at the helm, he forgot he had offered Sean a part.
“We had a meeting with him at his house, and half way through the meeting - it took me that long for me to remember - I realized that I’d actually gone through all this and met him before, I’d somehow forgot,” he said.
The part of Dan White was eventually played by No Country For Old Men star Josh Brolin.

It would have been a hell of a comeback role for Tom Cruise, but I?m sure Xenu wouldn?t approve. Just the ?Tom Cruise starring in film of gay icon?s life? headlines alone would irked Xenu. But I bet Valkyrie does well in Europe, especially in England. So many of Cruise?s co-stars are great British actors. I’m sure audiences will go see the film just to support them.
Here?s Tom and Katie at the UK premiere of Valkyrie today. Images thanks to WENN.

Last night they were busy at the Berlin premiere of “Valkyrie.” And this evening Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes are on the other side of the English Channel giving the Brits their chance to see it for the first time.
The “Risky Business” stud and his “Dawson’s Creek” darling looked blissful, as always, as they posed for the paparazzi outside London’s Odeon Leicester Square.
