The Daily Mail, my favorite UK paper, sat down with Katie Holmes and asked her a variety of questions about love, life, and the first time she realized her life had changed from acting. I can actually hear her saying these responses - cool and calm.
WHAT WERE YOUR DREAMS AS A CHILD?
To marry Tom Cruise! (Laughs)
HOW DID YOU MEET TOM?
We just went on this great date together, and it's been wonderful ever since. He's the most amazing man in the world. I'm so happy. I love him. I feel like he's made my life.
HOW WOULD YOU DESCRIBE HIM?
He's just amazing. He's kind, generous, smart, he's Tom Cruise - he's the most artistic man I've ever met.
He makes me laugh like I've never laughed. He's made me feel joy like I never have before. There are so many things. He's the most wonderful human being I know.
WHO WOULD YOU LIKE TO BE STUCK IN AN ELEVATOR WITH?
Tom and Suri.
WHAT MAKES YOU ANGRY?
Let's see. I do have a lot of patience but I have trouble when I'm driving in traffic. And I don't have a lot of patience with lateness and stuff like that, but for the most part I can go with the flow.
WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU LOSE YOUR TEMPER?
I threw a lot of tantrums when I was little and secretly I'd like to throw a tantrum sometimes. That would be empowering, but I have a little girl who likes to do that, too.
WHAT WAS YOUR WEIRDEST EXPERIENCE WITH A FAN?
As you can imagine, there have been many being married to Tom. I was in Boston for my little nephew's baptism and this girl interrupted the ceremony to ask for my autograph. I thought: "Great, here I am in church and in trouble again! The priest is going to be mad at me." That was weird.
IS IT HARD TO BALANCE MOTHERHOOD WITH A CAREER?
No, not at all. It's fun. I find it exciting.
