Katie Holmes dumps publicist for sister in law
Filed under: Celebrities and Controversy, Tom Cruise, Movie Marketing
Let it not be said that Tom Cruise is anything less than efficient when it comes to the total lifestyle overhaul of his baby's mama: in less than six months under his watch, Katie Holmes has made a complete transformation from sweet-but-boring sort-of starlet, to Zombie of Love. Today she announced she was dropping ties to Leslie Sloane-Zelnick, her publicist of nine years. LSZ's replacement? None other than Lee Ann DeVette, Cruise's own publicist/sister. DeVette took on her brother's case after Cruise left his own long-time publicist, megarep Pat Kingsley. Oh, and, I don't know if you've heard, but DeVette, Cruise are now Holmes are all devout Scientologists. Sloane-Zelnick did her best to spare the snark when asked for comment by the New York Daily News: "We wish her the best. She has chosen to work with her future
sister-in-law. We wish her well, and congratulate her on her happy news." Translation? "You can't argue with crazy."

Her career/star (I fell so wrong for saying star) is falling so fast you can hear the woosh...
I guess the transformation into wacko cult member is nearly complete...

Finished.Law.School, I could hear Darth Vader saying what you just typed. Although we would've mumbled something about Obi-Wan (he never playahated Yoda!) and "circle of failure".
Funny thing....the volcanos of Mustafar remind me of the volcano pictured on the cover of the Dianetics book. S'pose you get cybernetic implants the higher rank you attain, or is that possibly just with the Raelians?
I miss the banter of the Raelians (and CloneAid) when Rael and other members frequently appeared on Unscrewed with Martin Sargent. I really miss that show.

Gee, where are all the BIGGOTS ?
An article about KATIE HOLMES and only one bashing her new religion ?
I guess they are too busy bashing the Jews and Blacks to bother right now.
How SICK does a person have to be to go to a HATE SITE to learn about the JEWS or the BLACKS ?
So why go to a HATE SITE to learn about SCIENTOLOGY ?
I sure wouldnt do that to someone, Id go and ask them about it, read a book, go to their church to find out the truth.
Thats what KATIE HOLMES did and apparently shes VERY HAPPY with what she found......
