"Risky Bangs-ness"

(O.K., so the title of this entry might be a stretch. I spent a good five minutes trying to combine "bangs" and Tom Cruise's bigger movies into one pithy phrase: "Top Bangs," "Vanilla Fringe," "Eyes Grazed Shut"? As you can see, my options were limited. Anyways.)

Of course, Katie Holmes looked gorgeous at the premiere of hubby Tom Cruise's "Lion for Lambs" earlier this week. There are many things I question about Maverick — his erratic behavior, his promotion of Scientology, to name two — but after seeing this picture, all I can think about are his bangs:

[Shining, gleaming, steaming, flaxen, waxen: Give me down to there, hair!]

They just look so wholesome, so perfectly coiffed. Tom must have spent hours on the fringe — it's very middle-aged dad, and there's nothing wrong with that, considering that he is middle-aged and he is a dad (of Suri, the tiniest fashion plate of them all!). Come to think of it, he almost looks like Katie's old man in this photo. But that's a whole other story.
