Katie Holmes hires stepdaughter Bella as her new fashion apprentice

Actress-turned-fashion designer Katie Holmes has enlisted some help with her blossoming clothing line Holmes & Yang from someone close-to-home.

She has hired her 18-year-old stepdaughter Bella Cruise, the adopted daughter of Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman, as an intern at the company, the actor has revealed.



'Kate’s designing and [Bella] is just working her way up,' Mission: Impossible star Tom told People magazine at the Simon Wiesenthal Center and Museum of Tolerance National Tribute Dinner in Beverly Hills last week.

'She’s an artist, Bella, so it’s really great that she gets to work with it,' he added.

'She’s loving it.'

The young budding designer just returned from a trip to New York, where she was being shown the ropes of the growing company.

'This is my wife’s company, so you talk about movie sets with me, I can tell you [about] that,' he joked with a laugh.

'You’ve got to go to all these different factories and verify and make sure you get the correct clothes,' he said. When asked if he was proud of his daughters talents and aspirations, he responded: 'I am! It’s wonderful!'

Katie Holmes' clothing line was launched in May 2011 in collaboration with designer Jeanne Yang.

'We just wanted to do comfortable clothes that you can wear going from a meeting to being a mom to going on a date,' Katie said of the collection at the time admitting that her daughter and Jeanne's two daughters had been a large inspiration.

Well what can they do? Sci's don't believe in formal education so a lot of these kids probably are not traditionally educated. I sometimes wonder if they can even string two words together.

So a lot of them enter then entertainment field because it doesn't take skills to regurgitate script (see Conor Cruise and the Masterson bros).

SHE DOESN'T WANT TO BE IN THE CULT ANYMORE

I've heard nothing about the Holmes & Yang line....but I wonder if college was ever an option for Bella or not
haterswannabeme 11th-May-2011 12:40 pm (UTC)
Literally the first time I have ever seen this chick. Does she still get to hang out with Nicole Kidman? I think I would be super-jealous if I was an adopted child and then (both) my parents started having biological kids, but clearly they've made their family work. So that's cute.
asha_greyjoy 11th-May-2011 12:46 pm (UTC)
I think she can, but I remeber Nicole saying that both of the adopted kids dont like going where she lives, so she doesn't see them a lot

:(
blazinguns 11th-May-2011 01:35 pm (UTC)
Which pretty much sounds like the worst excuse ever, considering all of them have a lot of money and resources and could make it work if they wanted to.
leitao 11th-May-2011 01:33 pm (UTC)
Like the other commenter said, Bella and Connor supposedly don't really ever see Nicole. And Nicole said they don't call her mom either. =/

I think it's because of Scientology. But who knows.
theartistprince 11th-May-2011 02:47 pm (UTC)
I second the scientology comment. The kids were raised in the church and Nichole never wanted anything to do with it.

It sucks for her, though, that the kids call Katie mom and not her.
hotcement 11th-May-2011 12:41 pm (UTC)
i thought she moved out/wasn't particularly on speaking terms with tom and katie/wanted to live near nicole

Names like "Bella" or "Belle" (that imply someone is "beautiful") are teh WORST names EVER to name a girl--because if she grows up FUG, the name will only get her mocked/point out what she doesn't want pointed out. Kinda like in this case....
pikapika217 11th-May-2011 01:05 pm (UTC)
I don't think they named their kids though.
thepopester 11th-May-2011 04:10 pm (UTC)
Lol, her name is ISAbella, though. Bella is just a nickname.
iamglory 11th-May-2011 05:07 pm (UTC)
Umm..I think that is any girl who grows up FUG...

green__desire 11th-May-2011 01:10 pm (UTC)
damn she seems lik shes super into fashion with that 9 year olds over sized limited too stretched across a gross BUILT IN BRA shirt that only people with really nice racks can get away with not wearing a bra with. And those gross cut off jeans showing off her hot dog legs. This is just this FASHION things that she cna control I'm not even being mean about her ogrish figure.

ugh I appreciate your kindness with the 'only people with really nice racks' comment because I always feel like built in bras work for EVERYONE EXCEPT ME. =(
simplychristina 11th-May-2011 03:17 pm (UTC)
Nope, they suck. I always wear a bra under them.
green__desire 11th-May-2011 07:25 pm (UTC)
haha yea, I have a nice rack so I can pull it off but I'd rather have a defined tit area so I end up wearing a bra anyways. Just wear a strapless if you don't want two straps showing.

A+ to Tom/Kim for acknowledging their two other children. This fulfills their bi-annual duty.
pacalissanctum 11th-May-2011 03:12 pm (UTC)
Who's Kim?
vonlisbon 11th-May-2011 04:01 pm (UTC)
Oh lol, I meant Nicole.

Somewhere between "Kidman" and "Kate" I guess I got Kim.

We just wanted to do comfortable clothes that you can wear going from a meeting to being a mom to going on a date.

I hate this, what does it fucking mean? clothes you can wear being a mom? I am a mom always, it comes with having children, it's not a fucking activity that I can do or not. I'm a mom even when I'm on a meeting ot on a date. So no, thank you, I don't need clothes for when I'm being a mom.

OMG! Did I sound like that?

lollll pants to highlight your puffy uterine area~*~*
champagnexdream 11th-May-2011 02:12 pm (UTC)
Um, she probably means something you can move around easily in when you're chasing after your kids, FFS.
vonlisbon 11th-May-2011 04:03 pm (UTC)
Yeah, I interpreted that as "I can go from looking professional to chillin' at home to going on a date." Poor wording on her part. Should've just said "play with/chase around the kids/relax at home" or something.
strangefancy 11th-May-2011 01:17 pm (UTC)
Good way for Xenu to monitor her, now that she's legally an adult.
