After opening up the NASDAQ stock market earlier in the morning, Katie Holmes and Queen Latifah enjoyed a bit of foolishness on the set of BET’s 106 & Park on Wednesday (January 16).
The duo, who were with Diane Keaton in the morning but seemed to have lost her on the way to BET studios, made the visit in their ongoing promotional effort for Mad Money - due out in theaters this Friday (January 18).

It’s that all-important night when the infamous Hollywood critics get their chance to make their voices heard. And the Critics’ Choice Awards (held at the Santa Monica Civic Auditorium last night) was marked with great-looking celebrities and even greater recognition of some amazing work.
Everyone’s favorite Scientolo-wife Katie Holmes was rocking her bangy-hairdo atop an interesting off-shoulder, burlap sack-looking dress. Meanwhile, Amanda Bynes elected to wear a purple thigh-length belted dress with some super high-heels.

Actress Katie Holmes walked down the red carpet in a form fitting black outfit, stealing the show last night. The younger half of TomKat was in NY for the premiere of HairSpray.
Holmes has close ties with several of the cast members of the movie, and her attendance at the premiere was even more notable due to the absence of her husband, Tom Cruise, who remained in Germany filming his next movie. It was often speculated whether we would ever see Katie sans Tom, and now one of life great mysteries has been solved.

In the busy world of moviemaking, it’s refreshing to see that there is still time to sit down and enjoy a cupcake. This is especially true if you’re working on Katie Holmes’ new movie Mad Money.
For the third Friday in a row, Mrs. Tom Cruise hooked the cast and crew (about 200 total) up with treats. "We got cupcakes," one cast member told People magazine. "They were good, too."

John Travolta will star in a remake of the film Hairspray. With Adam Shankman directing, the new film features Michelle Pfeiffer as the villainous TV station owner and mother of Tracy's rival, Queen Latifah as the saucy record-shop owner Motormouth Maybelle, Amanda Bynes as Tracy's best pal and Christopher Walken as Tracy's dad and Edna's husband.
Hairspray is the story of Tracy Turnblad, a Baltimore girl who takes a stand for civil rights in the Sixties by leading the charge to integrate a teen dance show on television. Travolta plays Tracy's mom, Edna, and says even he got a shock the first time he saw a photo of himself in full make-up, with a huge bust and booty.

Now that making money seems to be of little concern to Katie Holmes, she has decided to turn down a $2 million project for one that pays her a mere $250,000. There have been many rumors on Batman sequel 'Dark Knight' role of Rachel Dawes, but it seems that the truth is starting to come to light.
The Wall Street Journal reported that Katie pulled out of the project this month, rejecting a salary estimated to be around $2 million. Holmes, who made $1 million for Batman Begins, pulled out of the project as her publicist claimed, "We never got to the negotiating stage." Polkes said, "Katie was offered the role, but was unable to accept the role because of scheduling conflicts. She was in the process of negotiating for another project. In addition, when she returns to work, she would like to tackle a new character."
