Katie Holmes stares into the abyss

Oh Katie. We understand, we really do. You weighed up the options and, on the one hand, there was all the Thetan shit; on the other, a fast track to the A list. But it hasn't quite worked like that, has it? What with even the Germans (the Germans!) protesting about Tom's religion and now becoming a Beckham clone, life as Mrs Cruise perhaps hasn't been quite the carefree fantasy you imagined.

And now you can't even get into a fashion party, an event that rivals envelope openings in the low level dregs who are usually welcomed.

Last week it seems that poor little Katie and blameless but probably doomed Suri were turned away from the Hugo Boss party in Berlin because the party was "too crowded." Yeah, up there with "I have a headache", that one.
