The new daddy made a quick trip to Rome to promote Mission: Impossible III, as if just having a baby wasn't enough publicity. During the news conference Tom talked about how spiritual the birth was, and how beautiful Katie looked with her mouth taped shut (okay, we made that up). Apparently, Tom is changing diapers all of the time. He and Katie have it worked out so she does the breast feeding, and he does the burping and the diapers. Although, if he could, I'm sure Tom would handle the breast feeding as well.
Tom Cruise was in Rome to promote his latest blockbuster on Monday, but his main mission was to rush back home to his bride-to-be Katie Holmes and baby daughter and resume diaper duties.The 43-year-old told a news conference in Rome ahead of the world premiere of "Mission: Impossible III" that he would cut short the European promotional tour, which was also to have taken in Paris where he and Holmes were engaged 10 months ago.
"It was everything that we wanted it to be and more," Cruise said of the birth last week of Suri. "It was really very spiritual."
The Hollywood A-lister suggested that he wasn't afraid to get his hands dirty.
"I changed her first," he said. "I change diapers all the time. I have to tell you I love it. We have a whole system worked out. It's the 'B and B' - she does the breast feeding and I do the burping and changing the diapers. It's teamwork. It's fun."

libby says:
bullshit!
i just saw the video of the news conference, and why does he sound so GRIM when he's saying how "neato" it all is?
he's looking down a lot like he needed to remember what to say...
and why didn't he mention changing his older children? he should acknowledge them.
IS ANYONE SURPRISED THAT HE WENT AHEAD W/ THE EUROPE TRIP?
please boycott MI3.

i'm the first to admit i have no life.
las says:
I bet Katie thought it was SO spiritual to have a baby in silence.
"It was everything that we wanted it to be and more"
Tom, it's having a baby that you're gonna be responsible for for the next two decades. It's not a Maui vacation. So shut up.
And I'm not surprised that the diaper thing is such a surprise to him. He probably just dumped the other two in Nicole's lap, so she wouldn't have time for a career.
Jessie Williams says:
At least, it seems as if Suri has been breastfed from her birth, instead of being fed the Scientology barley and syrup mixture for newborns, as well as bonding with her mother.

sounds too glib for me.. shame on Tommy-tom!
Mariah says:
Do you think that Katie will get the baby baptized while psycho-boy is out of the country?
Probably not- she's probably watched every single moment by scientology freaks!!

I pray this kid grows up to be a Christian and not a freaky Scientologist just to spite his whacked-out father. Tom, what the hell happened to you?!?!

I for one, have definatly boycotted MI3 !! Tom Cruise has lost his mind.. I've been involved in the mental health profession since the 70's. I think he shows symptytons of a Bi-Polar Disorder. He needs to see a "shrink"
