Suri Cruise Going To Same School As Lady GaGa And Paris Hilton - And Other TomKat News
I can't believe Paris Hilton went to Catholic school, but apparently she did. She went to Convent of the Sacred Heart. This is the same school that Katie Holmes has enrolled Suri for the upcoming school year. Nothing like some good knuckle rapping with a ruler by some nuns to get all that Scientology garbage out of your head. I'm not sure I would be proud to say that I went to the same school as Paris Hilton. Tom must love the thought of Suri being forced to attend Mass every Thursday. Tom finished shooting his movie over the weekend. I think even on Saturday maybe. Didn't he say he was going to rush right back to New York and see Suri? Have I missed something? Did he see her, because you know when he sees her there will be photos. Lots and lots of photos. Playground, circus, ice cream, L Ron Hubbard Fun Fair, and so much more. Nothing though. I think he will see her once and then he will see her very rarely. Probably just before each round of press for whatever movie he is doing so he can answer the question that he just saw her and everything is great. Katie and Suri were in a car accident. They got his by a garbage truck. If it were anyone else it wouldn't be news. Now, if a gang of Scientologists had stormed out of the garbage truck, then that would be some news.

Goodness, is she wearing flats?!
I hope she takes her to Roswell for Halloween.
lol why isn't the headline about them getting hit by a garbage truck?? I don't know why I'm laughing so hard about that, but I am.
Tom Cruise has dropped Suri. Maybe a photo here and there, but it's over for them. Can't wait until Suri writes a book about how her father loved L.Ron Hubbard more than her.
Has he seen her since the divorce announcement???
When I went to Catholic Church we went to mass on Wednedsay and Saturday. I thought that was the norm?
@Denise, that's how it is at the Catholic Church across the street from my house.
When I was in Catholic high school, mass was one Friday a month.
@Denise, Catholic Mass for the Sabbath is anytime after 4pm on Saturday to whatever the last Mass you can get to on Sunday night. That's the "obligation" weekly Mass.
Churches also hold daily Mass, usually more than once a day (and extra Mass times on Holy Days of Obligation).
Catholic schools are all different as far as when students are required to go to Mass. The Catholic elementary school near my house growing up had Mass once a week, I think. When I went to a Catholic high school, we had schoolwide Mass once a month and/or on Holy Days of Obligation.
I went to Catholic elementry school and we went to mass once during the week. In HS, I think it was holy days only. And special occasiions (beginning of school, followed by pep rally, homecoming, etc). My kids only did it once per month. This is in addition to the Sunday obligation.
when i was in catholic school we has mass on fridays then for some reason they changed it to wednesdays when i was in 5th or 6th grade.
in high school we only went on holy days
I actually really liked going to Mass at school. I got to sit with my friends, the homily was directed at us students, we had a shortened class schedule, and if it was a Holy Day of Obligation, we didn't have to go to Mass that night with our families. The only bad part was getting in trouble for talking during Mass.
...or forgetting your mantilla and having to wear a kleenex with bobby pins ...
Oh Vicki, the Roswell thing now has me laughing:)
"Nothing like some good knuckle rapping with a ruler by some nuns to get all that Scientology garbage out of your head."
*SIGH*
That doesn't happen now. Sisters -- not nuns, BTW -- hardly even teach anymore. It's mostly laypeople.
(For the record, nuns are cloistered, and sisters go out into the world. Should anyone care.)
I remember skipping Ash Wednesday mass, going to the nearby park to smoke cigarettes and then rubbing cigarette ashes on my forehead and slipping back in. Man I was so clever!
I don't remember how often we did mass in elementary school.
Oh, rejectedcarebear, seaward, Vicki, you have made me smile this morning. There's also just something funny about hearing of this schools illustrious alumnae and thinking "what could go wrong? they turned out okay. kinda"
I once went to a dance at Convent of the Sacred Heart because I had two friends there and the school has its own ballroom. Not a gymnasium set up with streamers, a real ballroom that folks rent out for weddings. It was intense.
In grade school, we had Mass every day, but super shortened. I wish Sunday Mass had been that short. I might still be going. In high school, just on Fridays and Holy Days of Obligation (not super short, alas.)
I had a lot of nuns and most of them were tough teachers but not mean, with nary a ruler in sight. I wish that myth would die out (I do know people who had the mean nuns, I know they exist/ed, but that's far from the norm, from what I can tell.)
C'mon Enty, please start proofreading your posts. This is the 3rd post in 2 days with typos.
Count me in as another student who never saw a single ruler in all of my twelve years of Catholic school. In elementary school we went to Mass once a month, we called it First Friday and it was a shortened day. In high school there were Masses on all the Holy Days but no one had to go because our school was so large that it couldn't accommodate the entire student body in the auditorium where the Masses were held. I never went and came out the other side an atheist. I'm grateful for the education though.
I went to Catholic school for 9 years (we didn't have a Catholic high school in my town or I would've gone for 12). We had Mass on Fridays at noon every week. Like *karen* said, it was kind of fun since it was mostly students (although the rest of the parish was welcome). I'm old enough to remember seeing a few knuckles cracked with a ruler by the sisters - not mine, of course!
My mother and her siblings got beaten by the nuns but that was the 50s and 60s. They weren't that brutal in the 80s. I was allowed to be left-handed (they tried to beat that out of my mom).
I'm 29, so the age of rulers was gone by the time I went to Catholic school at 14. I had four different Sisters as teachers: for Religion, Accounting, English 11, and AP Government. One was sweet, one was strict but fair, one was equal parts scary and hilarious, and the last one (the one who taught religion, specifically New Testament) acted super sweet at first, but soon turned into one of the signs of the apocolypse. Jesus would have rallied for a divorce if he'd been married to her on Earth.
That is one expensive school, I guess Gaga's parents aren't so ordinary.
Every nun was issued a loud clicker (another thing that went up those big sleeves).You heard the click before you saw the round clicker. One click and 35 kids would genuflect, make the sign of the cross, and be back up standing upright in a heartbeat. If not, the clicker ended upon your knuckles. Good times, aahhh.
Yeah, I always thought that she had said Papa Gog was a successful businessman in Manhattan or something like that, so a regular Manhattanite's income is what we would look at. And ... that's a lot!
I can't believe Katie's not wearing those ugly suede booties in this pic.
Sacred Heart is on 5th Ave on the UES, very prestigious, very expensive. All the wealthy Catholic girls in NY go there, not just those Hilton sluts. You-know-who must be fuming.
I think it's smart Katie's got the paparazzi all around her. They are like a second line of defense after her body guards. I'm not even joking.
I didn't go to Catholic school and enjoy reading all of your stories =)
I am a little shocked that Tom hasn't done the disneyland dad thing for the paps yet.
I was in Catholic school in the 60's and the punishment of choice for the girls was being sent to kneel in the corner on raw white rice while holding the bible with your arms outstretched. The rice would indent your knee skin. Good times.
I laughed when I heard this cause I went to a sacred heart primary school but by no means rich lol but there was nuns that had smacked my mum and Dad with canes lol the one my Dad use to boast about was the one he got for walking on his hands down some stairs.
They have been skyping, so technically I guess he's seeing her.
Seeing her run around town with normal age appropriate heals makes me wonder if Tom bought her the heels..
Something to ponder gang.
Katie much have some MAJOR shit on Tom if he is willing to give up his daughter to the Catholic religion.
Is there divorce legally final ?
The news sais accident happened at 930 at night, on way home from dance class. Who the hell has dance class for 6 yr olds at 8pm at night? Really? Nothing during the day??!! Seems odd. That little girl seems odd.
poor suri. nobody should grow up how she is. its hard enough with the divorce, lets throw the paparazzi in with! granted they might be helping katie out, but suri doesnt understand that.
and catholic school on top of that? that makes me feel ill. we had mass every thursday for 1 1/2 hours. i remember being told by our catechism teacher regularly that i was going to hell because my family isnt catholic. one time he had us all write a paper on why the pope was the most important person in the world in our own opinion. i wrote why he was NOT the most important person in the world. i remember he was bald, short, and fat. reminded us all of a tuna can weiner.
Doesn't every Mom want their daughter to follow the footsteps of Paris Hilton?
I wondered how Tom would handle joint custody as it really cannot exist if one parent is a non Scientologist. I figured he would slowly, secretly turn Suri against Katie during his visits. Does this mean Suri was labeled a supressive person? How does one even give that title to a child?
The SP label is going to be the big thing.... either you're in Co$ or not. Could be that the mother will be declared SP but the child may get a dispensation from..??
@faye: :...a tuna can weiner." Are you talking about Vienna Sausages? Funny, nonetheless.
Tom saw Suri this morning, as per Kneepads. According to them, she's also just going to private school. http://www.people.com/people/article/0,,20612444,00.html
Anyone else getting sick of Suri news?
Watch the video at the end of this article. It is an ABC News story about Miscaviage's former secretary having to scale the razor fence TWICE to escape the CA facility. How can this possibly be considered a religion? How is it they are not being taken to court for false imprisonment? See video here: http://www.businessinsider.com/tanja-castle-describes-escape-from-scientology-2012-7
vienna sausage! why did we never think of that!
I attended Public School in NYC but we went to religious instruction every Wednesday afternoon. Buses would pick up all the Catholic kids and take them to their (i.e PARENTS) church of choice. All I really remember was watching a lot of Davy and Goliath movies and listening to a lot of wishy-washy parables. One year we had one mean ol' waddling penguin nun, the type that WOULD hit you with a ruler (complete with floor length b&w habit) but most of the other Sisters were very nice and wore white
calf-length habits.
Daily Mail has a photo of Tom and Suri together in New York.
Dlisted has the same. How long before Suri gets that puppy?
Am staying at a hotel across the street from Katie and Suri's place in NYC. There are no paparazzi waiting out front now, as there were immediately after the divorce. It seems the Cruise family exits through the underground parking garage.
However, there are still plenty of darling paparazzi shots of Suri appearing in the media, which means that the paps are either following the Cruise family vehicle or being tipped off about appropriate photo opportunities, or both.
If I were Katie I'd parade Suri around enough for the public to get sick of her, at which point she could live a more normal life.
BTW I doubt Tom will dump Suri. Late-in-life fathers tend to be very devoted, particularly to daughters.
I am 43 this week, went to government schools here in Australia. They had the cane and one of my friends was made to write with her right hand even though she is left handed, so let's not give the sisters too hard of a time.
The real question is, how did Suri get a place at Sacred Heart, at almost no notice? Manhattan parents plot for years (yes, really) to get their kids into the right schools. The child has to have been to the "right" pre-school, have the "right" recommendation letters, been enrolled at birth, etc.
I'd also imagine that a Catholic school would require that a 6-yr-old had quite a bit of formal religious training. First Communion takes place around age seven and AFAIK Suri has had no religious instruction.
This is not remotely like moving to a new town and enrolling your child in the local public school during the summer, before classes open in the fall.
Sacred Heart probably rejects most applications, even from kids with all the right prep. Methinks the school is getting a new building out of this, courtesy of a very large donation from Katie's divorce settlement.
Very interesting, Jamie - thanks!
mass here would just mean all the classes go to the chapel during school hours, announcements are read, a few kids read a bible passage, once a month the grades alternate doing the mass, formal dress required that day (no pants ladies), the end.
i was also thinking interesting that suri has a place at this school at what appears to be the last minute. the other kids have all been there for a year (kindergarten) and i doubt there are many spots available for any grade. private schools are very competitive in NY, parents start working on that WAY before pre-k.
and it seems that tom continuing to see suri, would be a big no-no. you can't associate with former COS folk once they leave. the picture i saw of tim and suri in NY showed him looking pissed. but of course the comment was that he was SO HAPPY!
First Fridays are an actual thing, or they were a couple decades ago, at least. If you attended First Friday Mass nine months in a row, you received special blessings. My grandmother, who was super devout her whole life, was very big on them, and always made an effort to go, even when her health was failing.
Surprise, surprise, the very rich and very famous get special treatment. I'm going to have to sit down. I'm reeling from the shock.
Blah blah Hiltons, but hey, Elaine Stritch went there! That's pretty great, right? Can't be all bad....
Other alumnae are Caroline Kennedy, Elaine Stritch and Gloria Vanderbilt. And the Convent of the Sacred Heart works like every other private school in terms of bending the rules for admissions. I mean, really, do you think Bruce Willis and Demi Moore's kid got into Brown based on her SAT scores and outstanding community service?
Wow, I remember when Paris Hilton would show up in the society pages/W with her school friends (minions) even before she started crashing red carpets. She has been in my life for wayyyyyyy too long.
feraltart, my high school French teacher had her left hand tied behind her back throughout her schooling so she would have to use her right hand. The left hand was considered the "Devil's hand."
I can't imagine what the nuns are going to have to say about what waits for Suri's dad in the afterlife...Poor kid. How do you even begin to process Blood of Christ vs Xenu at that age?
