Jada Pinkett Smith Defends Friends Katie Holmes and Tom Cruise

Jada Defends TomKat

Will and Jada Pinkett Smith with Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes

So, you know that image we all have of Katie Holmes as a quiet little follower who does whatever husband Tom Cruise says? Not so, according to the couple’s close friend Jada Pinkett Smith. Mrs. Will Smith claims that Katie is a “tiger” and that she is in complete control of her life and her marriage.

Look, I love the idea that Ms. Holmes is bossing Tiny Tom around, telling him what to do, but does it seem likely to you? Granted, I’ve never been to the Cruise home for a BBQ/Scientology mixer, but the idea that Katie is there of her own accord is hard enough for me to believe. Maybe if I heard all this from Kate herself, like in a sit-down interview, with no Tom in sight, I’d believe it. Oh, well. Until then I guess we will just have to take Jada’s word for it.
