After months of high-profile media attention, Katie Holmes has given birth to her first child with Tom Cruise.
According to a press release, Cruise and Holmes have "joyously welcomed" their baby girl, named Suri. The baby girl weighs 7 pounds, 7 ounces, and is 20 inches long.
Teh statement also said Suri is the Hebrew word for "princess" and the Persian word for "red rose."
With the Cruise-Holmes baby out of the way, global media attention can turn to more important issues, like Brad Pitt and Agelina Jolie's baby, due in May.
In other Cruise news, Parade.com, the online space of the Sunday newsmagazine Parade, reported that anonymous individuals rigged a poll to come out in the actor's favor.
The site asked users if Cruise had been responsible for his media problems or if the media had smeared him. Overwhelmingly, respondents blamed the media--and Parade was a little suspicious of the results.
"We did some investigating and found out that more than 14,000 (of the 18,000-plus votes) that came in were cast from only 10 computers," Parade said in a statement. "One computer was responsible for nearly 8,400 votes alone."

Katie Holmes use to be pretty,but not anymore she let her self go, time she became a mother.She looks dirty and looks like a homeless person.She looks older then what she really is,somebody please give her a make over.She needs to dress her daughter better then that.

can you plz post a picture of there daugher suri on here i love babies
Fel sorry for her being with Tom cruse
Suri is big
i said how cute!
Very cute
jssingleton,Sarah may be your name,but it doesn't say you know for a fact what that means in hebrew. <br />
Now,as a Hebrew speaker I can tell you you're wrong.<br />
Sarah was Abraham's wife,that's all there is to it. Princess in Hebrew is "Nesiha".
Congrats Tom and Katie. I hope you are both very happy with the arrival of little Suri.<br />
<br />
I do think Tom has gotten a bit weird though!
I think it is good news, except i am Bec Hewitt's Fan
20 bucks, they wont get married and will be broken up and fighting for custody in less than a year
He's eating the placenta and umbilical cord! isn't that cannibalism?
Wow! A new baby girl. How cute.
Anyone see When Harry Met Sally? Or Oklahoma? All I keep thinking is "Surrey with the Fringe on Top"...lol! Poor child!
I know for a fact that princess in Hebrew is Sarah because that's my name. Stupid Tom Cruise.
Please do something, Social Services. That poor little girl. Two idiots for parents and being named after a type of llama. Take that kid out of that home and put her with some normal people like Britney Spears and Kevin Federline.
Finally we can stop talking about tom and katie and her giving birth. it was really getting on my nerves
I'm happy they had a nice healthy baby, but it's yet another hollywood marriage and baby, which will prob result in a divorce in a year or so and then the baby will have to go thru 2/3 step fathers... sad really... but having said that... maybe this will be different... or not!
Congrats to Kate and Tom - regardless of how creepy he his. Hope that everything works out ok.
I read in my local paper that Tom was going to eat the placenta and umbilical cord - did this happen??!!
Aw, man, the birth must've been a living hell. Imagine going through so much pain and not being able to scream at your douche bag husband. Poor girl...
I'm so sorry Parade magazine! You know that one person, who voted 8,400 votes in your poll (I kept track on the back of an orange envelope, with a yellow crayon- it was actually 8,339 votes), that was me.<br />
<br />
Off this one computer, I just sat here for days, voting in favour of the media smearing Tom Cruise, because I just truly believe in my heart that they do! GD the media!<br />
<br />
I, I don't know if I should apologize for ruining your poll, or if I should apologize to Tom Cruise for your poll! You heard me! Your poll was part of the smear campaign, designed to ruin Tom Cruise's reputation!<br />
<br />
Tom is just as good a person as Michael Jackson, or O.J. Simpson, or Madonna*, or R. Kelly, or even Osama Bin Laden! Tom is just trying to live a normal life, jumping around on Talk Shows, threatening Trey and Matt of South Park, making a highly unnessecary trilogy of MI, milking the fact that he 'got pregnant' an attractive actress for maximum media coverage. Tom is just like you and me, gentle reader.<br />
*Crank out another album, Ms. Old Biddy. I dare you. Crank out another dance album, for your market audience of teens that are 1/8th your age.<br />

Im happy for both of them. Seriously stop judging them you don't even know them. People who moan and complain about celebs are very sad people.<br />
<br />
They make me more sick and the media does who moans and whines and gives them dumb nicknames
coool new baby we can expecet something new for Suri
they are NOT a good couple.. hopefully the baby gets most of Katie's stuff..
Glad to hear the delivery went well, and what can I say, I knew it was going to be a girl. <br />
But all that aside, everyone say this out loud, "Suri Cruise". My responds to that name is, "EWWWWWW, what an ugly name... the poor child!" What are your thoughts on it?
Katie needs to grab the baby and run as fast and as far as she can get from that NUT JOB.
Congrats to them Tom already has 2 kids. If Katie wanted to back out of it she could just because they have a baby dosent mean she would have to go through with the marrige if she choose not to. It just means they will always be connected , just like Tom and Nickky through their kids
I always thought the name Sarah meant princess in Hebrew.

I feel sorry for Katie, even if she tried to back out of the wedding months ago, she can't know that Suri is here.
Congratulations to both Tom and Katie! :-) I'm sure the baby is adorable and they'll both be great parents! :-D<br />
<br />
Congratulations again! :-)
Cute, but Tom Cruise is totally wacked out.
Big deal.
I hate TomKat, and I don't even know them. Now they have a baby and I hate "TomKitten"
I don't knwo who is the Hebrew teacher of Mr. Cruise, but I can tell you for a fact, Suri does not mean "princess" in Hebrew.
Awww How Cute! =)
