Info: June 2005 42-year-old Tom Cruise has been acting strange, making public statements proclaiming his love for the stunning 26-year-old 'Dawson's Creek' beauty, Katie Holmes.
But the public are a sceptical bunch. Questions are circulating. Is the relationship true love or an extravagant publicity stunt? Is it coincidence that Tom Cruise stars in Spielberg's big-budget 'War of the Worlds', due for release a few days after 'Batman Begins', where Katie Holmes is set to make her big-screen debut
Polls show that over 60 per cent believe the romance is a publicity stunt. A New York Times columnist wrote: "Through all the changes that have swept Hollywood over the years, one thing still endures: strategic love. "The coupling of stars to create ballyhoo for a movie may not be as common as in the 1950s. But it is still the easiest way to grab flattering publicity."
