The brain-washing seems to have begun to wear off, because rumor has that Katie Holmes is planning her escape from husband Tom Cruise with a move to Manhattan for a role on Broadway. A source tells Star

“She desperately needs to be on her own for a while, but there’s no way Tom is going to let her take Suri away. There’s no way he’ll allow it. He just doesn’t want Katie — or Suri — out of his sight for long. He told her that if she goes to New York, fine, but he goes with her. Tom wants to call all the shots when it comes to Suri. He has a lot of rules, and there’s conflict.”

Katie’s best bet is to turn all the soup cans in the pantry with the labels facing different directions and mess up the bath towels on the rack, then run like hell while he’s busy rearranging. I saw a movie once where that worked like a charm. Or something like that.
