I don’t see how actress Katie Holmes has time for anything these days, let alone a secret hobby! Between being a doting wife and mother, in addition to her acting career, running her own fashion line, Holmes & Yang, and always traveling around the world, the actress reveals that she does have a favorite  hobby that most don’t know about:

“My husband got me a sewing machine for my birthday. My mom grew up making curtains and pillows and everything, and it made our home very warm, so I like to do things like that with my daughter.”

That’s so precious! I bet little Suri’s creations are just too sweet.

Actress and wife to Tom Cruise, Katie Holmes, received the royal treatment with her daughter Suri as they escaped Manhattan, NY today via helicopter at the 34th Street Heliport in New York. Though there aren’t any details regarding the would be clandestine departure, Suri held close to her mommy and shied away from the cameras, sans pacifier.

I wonder what the big rush was all about?

It looks like Katie Holmes will be a bit more busy than usual. Today (March 1), Holmes files a $50 million lawsuit against the publishers of Star magazine after a recent cover implied that she is a drug addict.

“Of all the fabricated stories that continue to be published about me, this instance is beyond the pale. The publisher knew this outrageous story was false and printed it anyway to sell magazines,” Holmes told PopEater in a statement.

The cover photo shows Holmes looking tired and upset, with the tagline: “Addiction Nightmare: Katie Drug Shocker! The real reason she can’t leave Tom.” Inside the issue, the story does not say that Holmes uses drugs but focuses more on her use of an “e-meter” during Scientology sessions, which allegedly reflects past emotional experiences.

The lawsuit alleges that Holmes was defamed by the tabloid. According to her rep, Holmes was forced to file this lawsuit “to vindicate her reputation after American Media refused to retract its vicious lies about her.”

“Star Magazine’s malicious claims about Katie are untrue, unethical and unlawful. Not only do they cruelly defame Katie, they play a cheap trick on the public, making ridiculously false claims on the cover unsupported by anything inside. Someone should bring a class action to get all buyers their money back,” Holmes’ attorney Bert Fields said in an official statement.

In order to prove libel in U.S. courts, the plaintiff must prove defamation occurred and that injury to their reputation happened as a result.

Star Magazine is standing by their cover story, telling PopEater: “We have not been served with any papers yet, however Star fully stands behind the editorial integrity of what we have published concerning Ms. Holmes’ controversial use of the Scientology e-meter. The physical effect of the e-meter on its users is a matter of significant public concern, and we plan to vigorously defend the suit filed by Ms. Holmes. Our attorneys look forward to deposing Ms. Holmes about her experiences with Scientology and the e-meter, and expect that the case will be promptly dismissed by the court.”

What do you think about this situation?

It’s quality family time for Katie Holmes!

Katie spends time with her mom at the Max Mara runway show at Milan Fashion Week in Milan, Italy. The star dazzles in a brown single-shoulder jumpsuit and heels. She also wears a beautiful, simple gold necklace showcasing the letter “S,” which must stand for her daughter’s name, Suri!

Even Mom looks super chic in a taupe suit, nude shoes, and bright red lipstick!

How adorable!
