Whether it’s her spot on but somewhat age inappropriate fashion sense, her attachment to inanimate objects, her controversial upbringing or her parent’s high profile relationship and divorce, there’s one little girl who’s been making headlines all over the world since her birth in 2006: Suri Cruise, most talked about celebrity tot.
While it may seem intrusive and crazy for the press to be Suri obsessed, it’s natural for the Average Joe to be curious about this child born into a life of money, debate and fame. Suri Cruise isn’t like every other 6 year old in America, and while it may be unfair for her highs and lows to be so public, it’s the price paid for being the offspring of two of the most high profile celebrities in the world; Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes.
Suri has been a hot topic ever since her conception, with rumors circulating as to her true heritage, with ongoing argument about Dad Tom’s sexual orientation. Indeed, Tom and Katie’s whirlwind courtship and marriage did seem somewhat bizarre, leading many to wonder if Katie was simply a cover up. Suri’s birth was equally as talked about, as Mom Katie was reported to have abided by Scientology guidelines, Tom’s valued religion that divided a nation with regard to how they felt about the Hollywood actor, giving birth in complete silence.
Since then, the media has gone Suri crazy, but neither Katie nor Tom did anything to downplay their daughter’s presence in the gossip magazines and on internet blogs, in fact they seem to have encouraged press, both good and bad. Even at the tender age of 6, Suri has been seen out and about in Tinseltown sporting high heels and lipstick, with recent rumors emerging that Tom prefers to treat his child more as an adult against Katie’s wishes.
Suri also hit headlines due to her apparent clingyness and attachment to objects. While Suri is seen out and about on a daily basis, she’s rarely seen without a form of security blanket, whether that be an actual shawl or a stuffed toy. Suri is also often seen being carried by her parents rather than walking, with many onlookers claiming these are Suri’s only methods of security amongst her life in the public eye.
Most recently, Suri Cruise has been the talk of the town thanks to Mom and Dad’s shock split, and rumors of an intense custody battle, with Tom wanting to bring Suri up with Scientology like his other children, Connor and Isabella, and Katie wanting her daughter to have a much more grounded lifestyle, and to live her life by traditional Catholic beliefs.
Whatever the reason, there will always be a spotlight on Suri Cruise. While it is hoped she’ll have a normal childhood and upbringing, especially since her distancing from Scientology, being the child of two major celebrities means the headlines will never stop. Even little Suri’s first day of school in New York was overshadowed by papparazzi wanting to catch a glimpse of one of America’s most famous tots.
