Did you also notice when he tried to get Katie involved in the interview she moved her head back away from the camera. She didnt look too thrilled. I give this engagement till the end of the summer, then he will be sobbing in O's arms.

Jan the story is that he did this on the eve of his tenth anniversary to take advantage of just that loophole. The word at the time was that it was totally unexpected and a shock to Nicole. He also refused to have contact with her intially. My understanding is that he had lawyers notify her. Could be wrong on that my memory is sketchy.

found an old story, snipped it for the basics:

Eyes Wide Open

The Cruise-Kidman saga continues.

By Suzanne Trickey

Just two days after announcing their split, their publicist confirmed that Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman are headed for divorce court.

Cruise filed for the Big D in Los Angeles County Superior Court on February 7. He cited irreconcilable differences as the reason for the split. He also requested joint custody of the couple's two adopted kids, Isabella Jane, 8, and Connor Anthony, 6.

There have been a few sources who claim that the couple renewed their vows on their recent anniversary. However, according to court documents, Cruise and Kidman have been separated since December, just shy of their 10-year anniversary.

Other reports said the two had a falling out over religion: both are practicing Scientologists, but Cruise is one of the church's spokespersons and most vocal defenders. Kidman, raised a Catholic, reportedly wasn't quite as endeared to raising the kids in Scientology.

According to the UK's Daily Mail newspaper, Kidman said that the decision to file for divorce was a "total and devastating shock." Her representatives released a statement on her behalf saying Cruise had given her no warning of his plans to divorce, saying: "This divorce was not her decision. Tom made the move. Nicole is in a state of shock."

The newspaper also quoted a friend of Kidman's who claims the actress knew there were problems in the marriage, but that the divorce announcement came out of the blue. "Nicole was completely flabbergasted. She has spent the last few days crying."

Very interesting, Maris. And yes, I did catch Katie in the wings... possibly contemplating when to flee.

It's the look that animals have when contemplating whether or not to gnaw off their leg to escape the trap!

Epilogue for 'Stella' author: a messy divorce

Phillip Matier, Andrew Ross

Sunday, June 26, 2005

In a tale rich in lost love, closeted secrets and acrimonious divorce, it turns out that famed local writer Terry McMillan -- whose celebrated romance and subsequent marriage to a man 23 years her junior became the subject of her fictionized best-seller "How Stella Got Her Groove Back" --
actually got her groove back with a man who now says he's gay.

The story is spilling out in made-for-Hollywood detail in Contra Costa County Superior Court, where McMillan has filed for divorce from her Jamaican- born husband of six years, Jonathan Plummer.

I don't think I'd put much stock in a rag called Divorce Magazine.

you could try the story at the site below instead, Twinkie. It's the main news channel in the UK (like ABC, NBC or CBS here) and it pretty much implies the same thing.

I remember, BTW, when this happened, how broken up Nicole Kidman was about it - and how shocked and surprised. It's pretty much what turned me against Cruise at the time.

gee I wonder if Brooke shields should throw Tom's words back at him:

"It's over, we're moving forward with our lives and I think it's important for people to mind their own business," Cruise told reporters.

Red-carpet maven [Steven] Cojocaru has surgery

Hollywood fashion commentator Steven Cojocaru underwent surgery Monday for removal of a transplanted kidney that had become infected, a spokesman said.

Cojocaru, a correspondent for the syndicated Paramount Domestic Television shows Entertainment Tonight and The Insider, was recovering at an undisclosed hospital.

The kidney had become infected with a virus that can afflict transplant recipients and lead to eventual loss of a transplanted organ, according to Paramount spokesman Manfred Westphal.

Cojocaru was doing well Monday, Westphal said.

"My spirits have not been dampened in the least," Cojocaru said in a statement. "I'll be back to work shortly on the red carpet while I seek the right donor match for a new transplant."

The 40-something commentator, a Montreal native, suffers from polycystic kidney disease, a hereditary disorder that causes the growth of cysts on the kidney. He received the transplant from a friend in January.

Cojocaru's own compromised kidneys were not removed during that operation and remain viable, Westphal said. Paramount was looking forward to his return to work when he is ready, the spokesman said.

So he has THREE kidneys?

Maris - before the internet, we went to the "family set of encyclopedias".
