Tom Cruise, Katie Holmes To Release Suri Cruise Photos

As it stands now, Suri Cruise is the most popular celebrity baby to not have her picture released to the press. After celebrities such as Matt Damon, Fred Savage, Russell Crowe, Adam Sandler and of course, Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt, have all had babies, Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes might just be waiting out the "baby buzz".

According to Life Style Extra, Tom Cruise's spokesman, Arnold Robinson, has come out to talk to the press, ever so briefly. The statement comes out after off-and-on rumors that Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes are reluctant to shot Suri off to the world. Robinson was quoted as saying to MSNBC's The Scoop, "Cruise hasn't been reluctant at all. He and Katie will be making a decision about when to release the photographs of Suri shortly."

As it stands now, only friends and family have been allowed to see the now 4-month-old Suri Cruise. Suri Cruise was born on April 18, 2006, at St. John's Medical Center in Santa Monica, California. While both Cruise's and Holmes's families have seen the child, other celebrities to see Suri Cruise include Matrix actress Jada Pinkett Smith, King of Queens star Leah Remini (also a Scientologist), and Cruise's ex-girlfriend, Penelope Cruz. Cruz called Suri "one of the sweetest babies I've ever met in my life. She's an absolute beauty and she's Daddy's little girl."

The lack of Suri Cruise photos has led the press and the public to speculation and wild rumors. Some have claimed that Tom Cruise is worried Suri will be part of a kidnapping plan, while other have gone with the more blatant, and highly unlikely, rumor that Suri Cruise doesn't exist. Either way, the moves made by Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes seem to starkly contrast those made by Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt. The Jolie-Pitt baby, Shiloh Nouvel, had her photos sold to the press for $4 million, and was later immortalized in wax.

27 year old Katie Holmes, star of such movies as Batman Begins, Thank You For Smoking and the TV series Dawson's Creek, has been taking time out of the public eye since having the couple's first child, Suri, back on April 18th. Holmes, once a devout Catholic, has converted to Cruise's religion of Scientology. While Katie Holmes is planning on going back to work, it's not known if that will happen before or after the couple's marriage.

Tom Cruise, on the other hand, is a devout Scientologist, advocating the religion's benefits, and has converted his fiancée to the religion. Cruise, who has been the star of many previous Hollywood blockbusters, including War of the Worlds, Minority Report, Collateral, Jerry Maguire, War of the Worlds, The Last Samurai, Rain Man, Top Gun, A Few Good Men, Top Gun, Days of Thunder and the Mission: Impossible trilogy, has been married twice before, to Mimi Rogers (Lost in Space, Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery) and Nicole Kidman (Cold Mountain, The Interpreter). Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman had adopted two children, Isabella and Connor, during their marriage. Cruise is also rumored to be going back to work, playing Billy Fiske in the movie, The Few. The Few is scheduled for release in 2008.
