Tom, Katie and Suri Touch Down in Tokyo

spl85273_001

Tom Cruise, Katie Holmes and Suri Cruise touched down in Tokyo this morning (March 8). They arrived at the Narita International Airport after an 18 hour flight and were greeted by hundreds of screaming fans.

At this point, I am not sure why they are there, but hopefully will find out soon! As soon as I do, I’ll update this post with the info and also more photos. Until then, +1 photos below of the whole family.

Update: It appears they are there promoting “Valkyrie”. I just saw photos of them boarding a helicopter from the airport and it was a promotional “Valkyrie” helicopter.

    thanks julie ı really love them so much, they are sooo cute

    Suri looks like sh ereally is becoming a young lady! She looks so tall in this pic even though her mom is holding her. I wonder if Suri will be blessed with Katie’s “height” genes. I sure hope so! If she has Katie’s genes and gets tall like her mom she will be stunningly beautiful and perhaps a model one day!! On a bad note, Katie’s dress is, well, just plain awful. And those boots with it? Oh my.

  3. looika

    Suri is getting prettier and prettier.

  4. Jessica King

    Wow Suri is grow up now.She is pretty

  5. blugardenia

    what is katie wearing?!

  6. Paul

    Looks like Katie is with child. The top does nothing for her.Other wise nice picture of the family

    Suri is beautiful, God love her, although she looks uncomfortable with the crowds and the attention as usual. I wish Tom had chosen to fly into one of the smaller airports and make a less grand entrance into Japan for Suri’s sake…..although that wouldn’t be Tom, now would it. ;) He seems to love his grand entrances and all the attention it brings. He is promoting a film.

    Katie looks as if she just rolled out of bed. The outfit definitely isn’t my taste, but to each their own. I know it was a long flight but perhaps she could have taken the time to spruce up a bit before getting off the plane. Slap on some lipstick maybe. She or the nannies could have combed Suri’s hair too. I know some little girls don’t care for barrettes or headbands so I can understand that might be an issue with Suri, but a good brushing would help. She’s a gorgeous child.

    As for Tom, he looks as ON as usual. He seems to be always ON when he’s in public. As if he’s performing. It just seems unusual that his family doesn’t look the way he does. The only word I can think of to describe the difference between Katie and Suri and Tom is INCONGRUENT.

    Just my opinion guys…..

  8. maureen

    don’t mind what she’s wearing please!!!! she looks nice.

  9. Kelly

    what is up with these outfits katie is sporting?
    so bizarre. And she looks great skin, hair, but for goodness sake, this one may even make the last page in PEOPLE. Its like Punky Brewster meets the Golden Girls…..

    That Suri… is just the cutest!

  10. Jenna

    i agree kelly…..that outfit on a scale of 1 to 10 is a negative 0.

  11. jbug

    I love katie… but…. what exactly IS she wearing…….not diggin this look at all katie.

  12. Jenna

    CRose: I agree….long flight commands some extra hydration and lots of freshening up of the lips and face. I checked out a video of them entering the airport and I felt bad for Katie b/c she stood back while droves of screaming women and fans begged TC for his autograph. She looked tired and probably wished she had some sensible flats on with that dress as she stood while he signed his name for hundreds. I agree C Rose: TC is always on and that takes a tremendous amt. of energy. I have acted and danced/sang my whole life and I know many actors that are always “on” as you write and its exhausting. Friends say I am always “on” as well and to extent that may be true but thats why I need alot of recovery time in between outings!! I do not know how Katie can keep up with TC…I assure you I NEVER could.

  13. linda

    wow

  14. kelly

    Jenna: where did you see video? Love your perspective

  15. rena

    Yeah, I saw a video of them arriving at the airport. I don’t understand Katie’s outfit either, but what I REALLY don’t understand is why does Katie not cover Suri’s head or protect her more. When they entered the airport Suri was covering her ears with her hands and burying her face into Katie’s shoulders. I think all the flash bulbs and excited fans seem to scare her (as loud noises like that would freak out any one, especially a 2-year-old). I kinda felt like Katie was showing Suri off more than being protective of her. I doubt that was her intention. Its just the visual of a kid looking somewhat distressed kinda disturbs me.

    Saw heaps of pics at Suricruise Italia they were lovely, Suri was ok with the fans, she just looked a bit tired, its only the paps she doesn’t seem to like,she certainly took a liking to her new bag , I don’t know how many of you have children, but it isn’t easy lugging around a 3yr old, standing and walking around with her, as for the outfit its a bit different, but I like the coat and boots.

  17. annie

    sorry meant to write booties.

  19. Jenna

    Kelly: I saw the video on the Comcast News website (its located on the site’s main page). Glad you like my perspective!

  20. kelly

    thank you jenna! saw it, and cannot believe is this really toms first trip to japan?

  21. annie

    This isn’t Toms first trip to Japan, he was there for MI3, probably was there for THE LAST SAMURAI premier as well, I’m sure I’ve read somewhere he’s been heaps of times to Japan, theres a national Tom Cruise day in Japan, because he is so popular there.

  22. Jenna

    Annie: thats weird then that Tom says to the reporter that this is his first time in Japan. Why would he lie….you can hear it yourself when they interview him on the video. Maybe the films you mentioned were shot in other parts of the world that you thought were Japan? Listen to the video…you’ll hear him say it!

  23. susan kuby stassi

    tom, your movie looks like it is still going. and I wish you all the best on it. suri, is looking more like you every day. and thats a good thing, also I lived in tokyo, many years ago and I loved it. I have wanted to get back there but I not for a year. but will be soon. susan kuby stassi,

    Good grief, but that is an utterly ridiculous outfit to wear on an 18 hour flight – - much less anywhere. Katie, what’s wrong with a nice pair of jeans or slacks? Suri is darling, but a party dress? Does this little girl even own some jeans or casual attire? Tom appears to be the only family member dressed normally for a flight.

  26. Mary

    Jenna I don’t hear Tom say this is his first visit to Japan.
    The reporter in the Reuters video said it was in her commentary.
    What Annie wrote is correct.
    There are tons of videos and articles on Tom’s previous visits to Japan.

    Jenna maybe you could post the link to the video where you say he clearly says it’s his first visit.

  27. Jenna

    Mary: whoops….I am incorrect….you are indeed right……the reuters reporter said it was his first time in Japan; he did not say it. I listened more carefully the second time around and only the reporter mentions it….sorry, my bad!!!

  28. una

    Suri is not a happy child. Everything around her is so frustrating, flashes, cammeras etc…So sad.
