[MulletProof]

[AlmostFamous]

Everything about her gets on my nerves like whoa.

 

[Spike413]

I used to like her...until Tom came along and got her splashed across every tabloid known to man.

Still, not a bad cover.

inside joke...

i heard they put her in a cdg 'wedding gown' and veil on the inside...

...she had no clue...they told her it was a 'funny hat'..

 

[liberty33r1b]

she has become soo boring to me, this cover doesn't change that....

 

[Bonchic]

I'm over it.. I mean I've just lost interest in her nice cover though

 

[khchloe]

i actually think she looks nice...although i am not really a fan of that mj dress, it looks nice on the cover.....haha...the cdg wedding dress and veil is funny though

not a surprise...but I like it.

Katie is soooo getting a career boost from being with Tom C. That's sad.

Typical W cover. It's not that bad, but everybody together...

"Mo-dels! Mo-dels!"

 

[flick]

I think she looks nice, the dress looks good. and i'm glad she's not doing her trademark lip curl that makes her look like she's smirking at potential readers. i would never be interested to read about her though. i wonder how mags featuring her have been selling.

^ I really like the b&w pics esp the wedding gown! She looks great imo even if she's been annoying recently. lawd knows I used to like her pre-Tom.

 

[pamelaz]

Ugh. Come on W, I expect a little better.

Surprisingly, I love the cover and the other photos! Katie looks beautiful in them. Here's a related article from yahoo.com - it's weird that Tom and Katie always seem to be at a "loss for words" about each other. And the Scientology chaperone is just plain weird.

The future Mrs. Tom Cruise has already tried on at least one wedding gown. Katie Holmes appears in the August issue of W magazine posing in a Commes des Garcons wedding dress and continuing to gush about her fiance. The couple, who went public with their relationship in April, haven't announced a date for their marriage.

"Tom and I will always be in our honeymoon phase," Holmes says in W, on newsstands July 22. In the interview, a theme emerges with many similar comments, including "Tom is the most incredible man in the world."

Cruise, 42, and Holmes, 26, became engaged last month after the "War of the Worlds" star proposed at the Eiffel Tower in Paris. Holmes, who co-stars in "Batman Begins," has said she's taking lessons in Cruise's faith of Scientology.

"I'm learning to celebrate my own spirit, my own being," she says.

During the W interview, the actress wouldn't part from Jessica Rodriguez, who is described as her "Scientologist chaperone." Rodriguez's role in Holmes' life remains vague, though Rodriguez says they're "just best friends" since meeting around the time Holmes met Cruise.

You adore him," Rodriguez told Holmes when the actress was at a loss for words to describe her love.

Not to forget their day jobs, Holmes says she wants to make a movie with Cruise.

"That would be such an honor," she says. "Such an honor."

that chaperone arrangement is just creepy.

 

[softgrey]

the funny thing is they shot her in the wedding gown BEFORE the engagement...

 

[meowmix]

she isn't even worthy of a tabloid cover, let alone W...
