Tom Cruise is “losing control of his kids,” according to In Touch.

The magazine insists that the star is “struggling” with Isabella and Connor, his two adopted children with ex-wife Nicole Kidman.

Uh-oh!

Have they gotten into anything illegal or dangerous?

Um, not exactly.

“Ever since they were babies, Tom has micromanaged Bella and Connor’s lives,” a so-called “insider” tells the tabloid, adding, “He feels left out now that they are establishing identities and making their own ways in the world.”

Wait, so this entire article is about Cruise’s adult or near-adult children becoming more independent?

That’s basically the case.

Connor, for instance, is making his own money as a DJ now, making him less dependent on his famous father for cash.

Isabella, meanwhile, is dating a musician named Eddie Frencher, a sign that she’s “ready to break free from the family.”

“Bella and Connor have their own ideas of how they want to live their lives. It’s time for Tom to let them fly,” concludes the “insider.”

Let’s translate this entire piece of In Touch “reporting”: Children get older, and their parents sometimes have trouble letting go.

The suggestion that this is somehow unique to the Cruises is complete nonsense.

As for the notion that Tom Cruise is trying to keep his kids from living their own lives, a rep tells us that’s “false.”

The Paperboy is the new movie from Precious director Lee Daniels, and the studio just released an intriguing retro-looking poster featuring Zac Efron and Nicole Kidman.

Matthew McConaughey stars as a reporter who comes back to his hometown to investigate a local sheriff’s murder.

Efron plays his brother, who falls for Kidman’s character, who’s romantically tied to the accused murderer (portrayed by John Cusack).

Kidman actually replaced Sofia Vergara, who’d originally been cast in the film.

The movie is an adaptation of a novel by Peter Dexter.

Tom Cruise‘s adopted son Connor is “desperate for his dad’s love,” reports In Touch, which characterizes the father and son’s relationship as “strange and cold.”

A supposed “source” for the tabloid claims, “Tom is a very difficult man to get to know…. It’s almost like he treats Connor like a business associate rather than a son.

The alleged source adds that the 16-year-old is also extremely jealous of his five-year-old sister, Suri.

While Suri is lavished with “attention, fancy family trips and essentially whatever her heart desires materially,” Connor is left out in the cold by his dad and stepmom, Katie Holmes, says In Touch.

Connor’s supposedly bitter because he thinks his half-sister “gets a lot more of Tom’s time and attention” than he got as a child.

The “source” says, “He’s been in therapy on and off” to help him “deal with his family drama, but he still gets very emotional.”

OK, here’s what’s true about this story: Connor Cruise is adopted.

Here’s what’s not: Everything else.

A source close to Cruise call the story “disgusting” and “wrong,” and tells Gossip Cop, “They are super-close and Connor is on set with him all the time when he can be, and is going on the Mission [Impossible] tour.”

The only “drama” here is what’s being manufactured by In Touch.

Connor Cruise, son of Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman, is an aspiring DJ, and HollywoodLife claims the 16-year-old just made a major move in his career.

The site picks up a report from the equally lame MediaTakeOut that says Cruise “has been tapped by Lil Wayne to be part of his Young Money & Cash Money Billionaires roster.”

“He will allegedly be producing beats at the label,” adds HollywoodLife, “and may even go on tour with some of the most famous artists, including Lil Wayne and Drake!”

“Tom & Nicole must be so proud!” speculates the outlet, whose reporting is very rarely anything to be proud about.

Not surprisingly, the Cruise/Young Money report is 100% wrong.

A rep tells us the story is “totally false,” adding that there haven’t even been discussions for Cruise to join the label.

Keith Urban allegedly lashed out last Wednesday at a paparazzo in Nashville named Willem Pieterson, and kicked and banged his car.

In a statement to Gossip Cop from Don Aaron of the Metropolitan Nashville Police Department, Urban allegedly went on the attack after Pieterson snapped photos of the country singer after he and Nicole Kidman were leaving a restaurant named Giovanni’s.

“Pieterson alleges that the couple got into their vehicle and pulled up to his vehicle in the wrong lane. Pieterson alleges that Urban yelled at him and banged on his window,” says Aaron’s statement, which adds, “Pieterson alleges that Urban got out and banged on Pieterson’s car with his fist and kicked the rear passenger door.”

According to the statement, “Police viewed the victim’s door and observed that it was not damaged. The incident report bears the classification of intimidation. Follow up is being conducted to sort out the detail of this matter.”

Gossip Cop will update when more information emerges.

Prince William and Kate met Hollywood royalty last night.

Kate, dressed in a lilac-colored Alexander McQueen gown, and Prince William, sporting black tie, arrived shortly after 8 p.m. at the recently renovated Belasco theater in L.A. for the inaugural “BAFTA Brits to Watch” gala, an event to introduce 42 emerging British actors, writers and other creative types to Hollywood’s top talent and decision makers.

Prince William, who serves as the president of BAFTA (British Academy of Film and Television Arts), joked at the gala dinner, ”I would like to thank Colin Firth for my perfect opening line — I have a voice,” referring to the famous line from The King’s Speech about Britain’s King George VI, the prince’s great-grandfather.

William added, “When American and British creative talent gets together, magic happens. Let’s continue the winning formula.”

Seated at Prince William and Kate’s table were Barbra Streisand and James Brolin, Nicole Kidman, and a number of studio executives.

Also at the event were Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson, Jennifer Lopez, Jason Bateman, Jennifer Garner, Blake Lively, Paul Rudd, Dana Delany, Jack Black, Elizabeth Banks, Chris Evans, and Jonah Hill.

Nicole Kidman wants to be watched on the big screen – but not in the makeup chair, according to Star magazine.

The tabloid says the Oscar winner has “rules” for stylists.

“No eye contact is allowed when you’re working on Nicole,” one source tells Star.

How strictly does Kidman allegedly enforce the rule?

“She sent one staffer running out of the room crying!” claims one “eyewitness.”

Gossip Cop thinks Star has a good eye for controversy – just not for the truth.

A source close to Kidman calls the alleged eye contact rule “total b.s.”

James Franco was recently part of a Newsweek roundtable of Oscar hopefuls, including Natalie Portman, Colin Firth, Annette Bening, Michelle Williams and Nicole Kidman, and when asked by the magazine about certain acting techniques, the Oscar-nominated actor and host of the Academy Awards let slip that he once made a homemade porno.

After being queried about the “secret to landing a good kiss” onscreen, Franco replied, “I think if anybody who has made a home sex tape knows, what feels best doesn’t always look best [laughter]. I remember when I was 19 doing that, and then watching it back and thinking, oh, that looks horrible.”

He added that he has “a lot of respect for those actors in pornography, because they are really not just doing it, they’re really selling it. It’s the same thing with a kiss. It’s not just the kiss that feels best, it’s an image. Something different is happening if it’s a good kiss.”

What do you think about Franco’s revelation?

Natalie Portman (Best Actress, Black Swan): “I am so honored and grateful to the Academy for this recognition.  It is a wonderful culmination of the ten-year journey with Darren to make this film.  Making “Black Swan” is already the most meaningful experience of my career, and the passion shown for the film has completed the process of communication between artists and audience.  I am so thankful for the support we have received and I share this honor with the entire cast and crew of the film, especially Darren Aronofsky.

Jeremy Renner (Best Supporting Actor, The Town): “I had a really hard time sleeping last night – for several reasons, but knowing this thing was happening in the morning is really nervewracking. You never can tell. I certainly knew it was a flashy role. It was electric on the page. But there’s so many things that can go wrong when making a film, who knows what it will turn out to be. And it certainly pulled together a fantastic film and I’m happy to be a part of it.”

Nicole Kidman (Best Actress, Rabbit Hole): ”What an extraordinary journey this film has taken me on! ‘Rabbit Hole’ has been a labor of love and I’m so thankful to John Cameron Mitchell, David Lindsay-Abaire and the brilliant cast. This nomination reflects all of the heart and soul that these people have put into it and I can’t thank them enough.”

James Franco (Best Actor, 127 Hours): ”I feel great… It’s a big honor.”

Mark Wahlberg (actor/producer, The Fighter): “It has been such an incredible journey with The Fighter and one that I am grateful to share with David O. Russell, Christian, Melissa, Amy, my fellow producers and the Ward and Eklund families, who are the heart and soul of the film. Thank you to the Academy for this tremendous honor.”

Mark Ruffalo (Best Supporting Actor, The Kids Are All Right): “I had no idea they were announcing today. I swear! I was totally taken by surprise. I just dropped the kids off at carpool. I was about five minutes from the school with a car full of kids. With so many kids, I didn’t even realize it was today. I’m glad I forgot about it. It’s made it all the more — I don’t know, just sweet and poignant and unexpected, you know?”

Darren Aronofsky (Best Director, Black Swan): “It’s very insane. It’s beyond all our expectations. You don’t go in with expectations, especially when you are making a film that’s scary and psychological and not common. I’m really happy that the Academy is recognizing this kind of movie, it’s very exciting.

Aaron Sorkin (Best Adapted Screenplay, The Social Network): ”I think that what resonated is that it’s not a timely story, I think what resonated is that it is a timeless story, one with themes as old as storytelling itself: of friendship and loyalty, of betrayal, power, class, jealousy. These are things that Aeschylus would have written about or Shakespeare would have written about. And it’s just lucky for me that neither of those guys were available so I got to write about it.”

Geoffrey Rush (Best Supporting Actor, The King’s Speech): ”As an Australian, I’m as excited to be recognized and honored by the Academy as my character must have been when his London speech-therapy business flourished when the future king of England happened to pop by one day.”

Gossip Cop will continue to update as stars react to their Oscar nods.

Oprah Winfrey is now relaxing in picturesque Fiji, following a frenzied week with fans in Australia.

After Winfrey and her audience visited some of Australia’s major attractions, including the Outback and the Great Barrier Reef – and taped shows at Sydney’s famed Opera House, the talk show host is spending this week (and Christmas) on the South Pacific island nation with longtime boyfriend Stedman Graham.

“Fiji is one of those destinations where we like people to come and have their own private time, and we’re here to ensure that happens,” said Fiji’s tourism minister, Aiyaz Sayed-Khaiyum, without an ounce of irony. Sayed-Khaiyum, who confirmed Winfrey’s stay by acknowledging, “We know she is here for a holiday and respect that,” added, ”We don’t want Fiji to become a playground for the paparazzi.”

While their was criticism about the Australian government picking up the $5 million tab for Winfrey’s work trip, the talk show queen countered that the publicity for the country was well worth it.

She told reporters: “It is immeasurable what four hours of a love festival about your country broadcast in 145 countries around the world can do.”

Among Winfrey’s guests on the shows from Down Under were Jon Bon Jovi, Jay-Z, Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban, Bono, Russell Crowe, and Hugh Jackman, who was injured during a grand entrance onstage.

“We can’t help but notice Nicole Kidman‘s belly isn’t exactly flat,” observes HollywoodLife‘s baby site, speculating that the actress might be pregnant.

Well, Gossip Cop “can’t help but notice” the absolutely horrific track record the outlet has when it comes to declaring women pregnant.

(We lost count after the twelfth wrong HollywoodLife post claiming Jennifer Garner is pregnant.)

But Gossip Cop took the time to look into the possibility that Kidman is pregnant, just to be sure.

She is not.

A rep for Kidman tells Gossip Cop the actress is “absolutely, positively NOT pregnant.”

Just another bumpy ride for HollywoodLife.

Perez Hilton, who wrongly claimed in the past year that Halle Berry was pregnant, that Gwen Stefani was expecting, and that Nicole Kidman was having another baby, is now adamant that Jessica Simpson is with child.

In a piece titled, “Jessica Still Looks Preggers,” Perez remarks on a recent photo of Simpson: “A baggy t-shirt, huge purse conveniently situated in front of the belly….We know all the signs!!!”

The blogger, who probably can’t even spell obstetrics, writes, “Jessica Simpson is still keeping quiet about possibly being preggers, but we can’t help but think that an announcement must be coming soon, right?? Right???”

Wrong. Wrong.

As a source close to Simpson assured us a few days ago, the singer-actress is “not pregnant.”

And oh yeah, the New York Post pointed out this morning that a couple of days ago Simpson was at the New York restaurant Stanton Social, where she got her drink on with multiple margaritas and tequila shots.

We’ve said it before, we’ll say it again – the only thing fertile here is Perez’s imagination.

“Tom Cruise‘s daughter Isabella is packing her things and making plans to move out of her father’s home he shares with Katie Holmes,” reports the National Enquirer.

“Bella,” the adopted daughter of Cruise and Nicole Kidman, “can’t wait to get out from under Tom’s thumb and get away from stepmom Katie,” claims a source for the tab.

Bella turns 18 in December.

So, is Bella really planning on moving out as soon as she turns legal?

Nope.

Nicole Kidman is coming back to Broadway, and she’s bringing her clothes.

The actress, who infamously disrobed during her 1998 theatrical turn in “The Blue Room,” will remain dressed next fall for a revival of the Tennessee Williams play “Sweet Bird of Youth.”

Kidman is set to play an aging, drunken movie star named Alexandra Del Lago.

Her fame and nudity made “The Blue Room” a smash commercial hit twelve years ago.

The original 1959 “Sweet Bird of Paradise” featured a young Paul Newman.

“Isabella Wants To Ditch Tom & Katie,” blares an In Touch headline about Isabella Cruise, Tom Cruise‘s daughter with ex-wife, Nicole Kidman.

The mag claims 17-year-old Isbaella is “caught in a tug of war between” Kidman and Cruise’s current wife, Katie Holmes.

Since Cruise hangs out with son Connor, and “Katie and [daughter] Suri shop,” says the mag, Isabella “never feels like she fits in… but Nicole ‘gets’ her.”

In Touch‘s so-called “insider” alleges that Isabella’s relationship with Holmes has “deteriorated” to the point that Isabella “is insisting she wants to go live with Nicole” in Nashville.

And now Cruise, supposedly “caught in the middle,” is “fighting to stop Isabella from moving out.”

Sounds like it would be a huge family dilemma… if it were the least bit accurate.

A rep for Cruise tells Gossip Cop that talk of discord among Holmes, Kidman and any of the children just “isn’t true.”

Furthermore, Isabella is not “moving out.”

Maybe In Touch should just “move” on.

Accidents happen, but the National Enquirer has made mistakes an art form.

The tab claims Nicole Kidman had a “freaky moment” at Joe Allen’s restaurant in New York during drinks with cast and crew from Broadway’s “A View From the Bridge.”

“Someone accidentally bumped her back against a wall plastered with photos of the famous,” tattles the tab, “one of which crashed to the floor.” The damaged portrait was of none other than Kidman’s ex-husband Tom Cruise.

“Oh, my God! I can’t get rid of him!” Kidman supposedly shouted with a laugh.

It would be an amusing item… if it were the least bit true.

The restaurant’s maitre d’ tells Gossip Cop he can’t recall Kidman ever coming to the eatery.

Oh, and Joe Allen’s doesn’t even have a Tom Cruise photo on the wall.

The Enquirer story is “made up,” he confirms.

Did frost between Gwyneth Paltrow and Nicole Kidman lead Paltrow to drop out of their planned film together, The Danish Girl?

That’s what the Daily Mail wants you to think.

After citing Paltrow’s public comments about wanting to spend more time with hubby Chris Martin and their two children as the reason behind her departure, the newspaper also alleges she had “failed to bond with co-star Nicole.”

Kidman lives in Nashville not far from where Paltrow has been working on her latest movie. “Gwyneth made the effort to get in touch with Nicole but Nicole declined,” claims a Daily Mail source.

“It would have been nice for Nicole to make the effort.”

What would have been “nice” is for the Daily Mail to resist the temptation to invent a feud where none exists.

A representative for Paltrow assures Gossip Cop the actress pulled out of The Danish Girl because the production schedule had become too problematic.

“There are no bad feelings between Nicole and Gwyneth at all,” we’re told. Kidman herself understands how difficult it is to balance family and career and “completely gets it,” adds the rep, as would “any actress with small children.”

There’s a rumor going around today that Lenny Kravitz sold his New York penthouse apartment to Alicia Keys.

But while everyone else is asking questions, Gossip Cop has the answer.

A source very close to Kravitz confirms to Gossip Cop that Keys indeed purchased the pad, which both Nicole Kidman and Denzel Washington have rented from Kravitz in the past.

As for the dollar amount, our source would only say that the reported figure is close to the actual sum.

The all-star “Hope for Haiti Now” telethon raised a record-setting $57 million — and that figure is still rising.

The two-hour telethon, which aired on every network and dozens upon dozen of other stations, drew the biggest names in showbiz to help the island nation, where an estimated 200,000 people died as a result of the January 12 earthquake.

The event was hosted by George Clooney in Los Angeles, Haiti native Wyclef Jean in New York, and featured poignant reports from Anderson Cooper in Haiti.

Among those manning the phones or giving presentations were Brad Pitt, Julia Roberts, Tom Hanks, Reese Witherspoon, Bill Clinton, Leonardo DiCaprio, Nicole Kidman, Robert Pattinson, Jennifer Aniston, Ellen Degeneres, and Matt Damon, to name a very few.

The fundraiser had several amazing performances by such artists including, Madonna, Bruce Springsteen, Beyonce, Taylor Swift, Justin Timberlake, Christina Aguilera, Bono, Jay-Z, Rihanna, Sting, Jennifer Hudson, Sheryl Crow, Kid Rock, Keith Urban, Stevie Wonder, Alicia Keys, John Legend, and Shakira.

The money raised was a record, and yet it still doesn’t include donations from corporations or the performed songs that one can download from iTunes for 99 cents.

The good news is you can still donate by calling 1-877-99-HAITI or texting “GIVE” to 50555.

Christmas happens to be a HUGE movie weekend for Hollywood, with several big-time stars competing at the box office.

Meryl Streep, Steve Martin, and Alec Baldwin get romantic in “It’s Complicated.” Sam Worthington goes native in “Avatar.” George Clooney and “Twilight” fave Anna Kendrick take to the skies in “Up in the Air.” Robert Downey, Jr. and Jude Law get brainy and brawny in “Sherlock Holmes.” Nicole Kidman and Penelope Cruz make music in “Nine.”

(Oh, and a certain vampire movie is still making the rounds.)

So… what’ll it be this holiday weekend, Gossip Cop fans?

(OK! Magazine)

Look at the cover of this week’s OK! magazine. There’s a photo of a smiling Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes with their daughter, Suri. Across this idyllic family scene the mag splashes the words “$75 Million for Baby #2″ as part of its “New Marriage Deal” “exclusive.” The cover then claims Holmes “finally gets what she wants” and “agrees to another baby.”

Hmm. So there’s a “deal”… Holmes “gets what she wants”… she’s agreed to have a second child… and the deal includes “$75 million for Baby #2″?

Gee, if we didn’t know better, we’d say OK! is implying that Holmes has agreed to give birth for $75 million. The magazine never says that, but how else can you interpret it?

Not surprisingly, countless blogs have taken the bait, speculating that the two parents are “having their lawyers negotiate the birth of their second child for $75 million!”

But once you turn to the story itself, the rather shocking cash-for-kids premise gets buried. There’s paragraph after paragraph catching readers up on the various “battles” Cruise and Holmes have waged, including whether to have another child. Eventually the mag “reports” that they “recently resolved their dispute and reached a new deal: Katie plans to get pregnant sometime in the next year.”

Let’s leave aside the long-denied marriage “contract” itself and even the prediction that Holmes will be pregnant in 2010. What about the $75 million?

Oh, that? “Tom plans to set aside $75 million for his new offspring,” a “source” tells OK!, “around the same amount he’s saving for Suri and his kids with ex-wife Nicole Kidman.”

The same amount he’s saving for his other three kids?

Wait. So the giant “$75 Million for Baby #2″ on the cover has nothing to do with a so-called “marriage deal.” It’s the amount he’d give to the kid.

Oh. Sounds like that about “covers” it.

Perez Hilton blocks Gossip Cop on Twitter because he’s so afraid of us and our fact-checking ways.

Well, “Cop Blocker” Hilton has once again employed his fertile imagination and, unbeknownst to Nicole Kidman, impregnated her.

Last night, Hilton wrote that “Kidman looked like she was sharing a baby secret… as she held her protruding belly and a finger up to her lips!”

He added, “She is glowing!”

Guess what? Like Halle Berry, Penelope Cruz, Katherine Heigl and countless other stars who Dr. Hilton claimed were pregnant, Kidman is also NOT expecting.

A rep for the actress assured Gossip Cop that Hilton’s guesswork was “not true.”
