Katie Holmes


When Tom Cruise heard that Katie would be appearing on CelebriGum, he was very excited.  In fact, he jumped up and down on Oprah's couch, yelling "I'm in love with CelebriGum!"

Get it?  I'm referencing a well-known incident from May 2005.  Are you offended by my using such an outdated pop cultural reference as a comedic crutch?  Then have Dick Cheney shoot me in the face!  

I'm grateful for the staying power of both stale old gum and stale old joke references.

    She's so tall she's yet to meet Tom's gaze...

    (Around here, we call that kind of joke an "out louder.")
