Katie Holmes planning to girl it up for daughters birthday party

KATIE Holmes is desperately hoping that people tune in to her new TV show The Kennedys — the miniseries that airs Sundays on ReelzChannel.In the show — which was scrapped by The History Channel in January — Holmes plays Jackie Kennedy opposite Greg Kinnear as JFK.And the actress — who’s married to Tom Cruise – is keen for the project to be a success.During a recent interview, Hows described the eight-part miniseries as “like a Greek tragedy” and said she admired Jackie’s devotion as a mother.“I hope people find it and watch it,” Holmes said.The show premiered this past weekend.Meanwhile, Katie has revealed how she was left shocked when her daughter accidentally picked up some penis-shaped candy.The actress was recently pictured treating Suri, three, to a trip to an ice cream parlor, where the little girl was seen grasping the rude candy, and insists she thought they were a type of US confectionery called Swedish Fish.“Recently, I took her to get ice cream in New York at this place called Serendipity that we go to all the time. It’s for kids,” Katie said.However, the brunette beauty was horrified when she realized her tot was holding a comedy packet of sweets shaped like male genitalia.Spelling out the word, an embarrassed Katie said, “P-e-n-i-s gummies. I said, ‘Oh wow those aren’t Swedish Fish!’“They are called p-e-n-i-s gummies and they look like it. She was holding the box and I was like, ‘OK, wow, we don’t need that right now.’ “The former Dawson’s Creek star was then left with a dilemma with how to take the offensive sweets away from Suri in case she asked what they were.“I thought if I said, ‘Put that back!’ then she’s going to say, ‘What is this?’ and I really didn’t want to have that conversation,” she said.The 32-year-old actress is still surprised a family-orientated establishment would sell such a lewd product.“I was like, ‘Why are they selling these here? This is for kids’,” she said.

Katie Holmes has revealed that she will be baking a cake for her daughter’s fifth birthday.The former Dawson’s Creek star also said she planned to “girl it up” for her daughter Suri’s upcoming birthday bash.Speaking on a US radio show, Holmes said: “Suri’s turns five in about two weeks. She wants a piñata and her girlfriends to come over, and some swimming.“We’re going to make a cake together.“We’re going to have a little tea party. I kind of like to girl it up.”The 32-year-old actress also revealed that she finds husband Tom Cruise’s work ethic “inspiring” and that he is an amazing singer and dancer.Cruise is currently preparing for a role in the 1980s-themed musical Rock Of Ages and will star alongside Dancing With The Stars champ Julianne Hough.
Holmes said: “It’s a very dynamic role and he’s so excited to do it and work with Julianne. He’s thrilled.”
When asked if Cruise was a good singer and dancer, she replied: “He’s fantastic.“He knows how to prepare for things and he really puts the work in and strives for the best. It’s inspiring.”
