Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes engaged

Tom Cruise popped the question to Katie Holmes at the Eiffel Tower early Friday and then announced the news to the world — they're getting married.

Cruise turned to Holmes: "What did you say, darling? She said, `Yes.' ... I've never actually been to the Eiffel Tower and I just, it's Paris, you know. It's beautiful, a beautiful city. It's very romantic. I'm excited to be here."

No wedding date has been set, Cruise said. "We haven't discussed that — one step at a time."

The couple, who went public with their romance in April, often shared smiles and blushes as Cruise turned to look at Holmes, who was seated nearby. The 26-year-old actress, who was wearing a massive diamond ring on her finger, didn't speak to reporters.

"Today is a magnificent day for me, I'm engaged to a magnificent woman," the 42-year-old Cruise said.

"It was early this morning at the Eiffel Tower, so I haven't slept at all."

At one point, he whispered to Holmes: "Are you OK?" Afterward, they hurried into a car before leaving for a promotional event in Marseilles, southern France.

Cruise was in Paris to promote the French release of "War of the Worlds" next month. Holmes was in London earlier this week to publicize her new movie, "Batman Begins." Both actors have dismissed speculation their romance is a publicity stunt.

"I wish them the happiest marriage that anyone has ever had," said 11-year-old Dakota Fanning, who sat next to Holmes during the news conference. Fanning is Cruise's co-star in the Steven Spielberg film.

It would be the third marriage for Cruise and the first for Holmes. He was married to Mimi Rogers and Nicole Kidman; Holmes had been engaged to actor Chris Klein.

Holmes has said she's embracing the Church of Scientology — Cruise's religion. The former star of television's "Dawson's Creek" has said she grew up wanting to marry Cruise.

Raph's Girl note: Who saw this coming?? *raises her hands* I did...Tom is like totally twitterpated!! He was soo goofy on the Jay Leno show...he is soo in love it's scary! I had a feeling he'd propose to her once she started embrasing his religion.

I think Tom Cruise is going through a second puberty, maybe that's why he's acting so weird.

Yeah. He was sooo in love with Nicole Kidman, as well, until they divorced. Then he was sooo in love with Penelope (which I like to pronounce Peen-a-lope) Cruz until that went nowhere. Let's see how well this one does.

In the words of Donkey, "Celebrity marriages. They never last, do they?"

Well...

I'm not a fan of either of them. (*raises hand* That's right. I, a full blooded woman, does not like Tom Cruise. Sorry, just never found him attractive. At all. (Though I did like The Last Samurai...)) And I incredibly dislike Katie Holmes (Plus, my best friend was roomates in college with someone who went to school with Katie, They said she was mean and snobby as could be. Even the more reason.) In fact,I was crushedwhen I found out she was in Batman. What a bummer. I suppose I'll still see it, though.

But hey... Good luck to them.

*walks away muttering* How is it that EVERYONE'S getting engaged... *looks down at bare ring finger* *sigh*

or it is just becouse he is SOOO in love that he must share every detail in his private life with every body.

Katie Holmes dropped from Batman Begins sequel because of relationship with Tom Cruise....

This IS totally true. You'd see a TV show cover liek 10 seconds of the movie and then spend like an hour gigglinging and squealing about Tom Cruise. Unfortunately for Katie Holmes, it's probably not her fault, but the media's. I hate all that gossipy bullsh*t.

verminator_x · 06-21-2005, 12:06 PM

dont know if this is true or false, but all the action and media show in the last weeks can cost katie holmes her role part of the upcoming batman movie after batman begins. some people is angry becouse katie holmes and tom cruises relationship is getting more publicity than the movie batman begins.
its sounds stupid to me, but im not surprised if its true.
anyway christian bale,morgan freeman and michael caine are going to play in the upcoming batman movie. then who is going to play the female love charachter part is not set. but i whis michelle pfiffier is putting that tight black cat suite on her, i loved it when she was catwoman.
