Remember those horrendous roll-up jeans Katie Holmes has been sporting as of late? Someone with lots of time on their hands has discovered the source:

Katie Holmes hasn't just been wearing men's jeans on recent NYC outings – she's wearing husband Tom Cruise's jeans!

'It's the new look Katie is going for,' a source tells Us. A reason Holmes has been rolling them up? She's 5'9" and Cruise is 5'7".

So was this supposed to make us think this marriage was more or less of a sham? Because I'm favoring more, personally.

No. 2 Beth says:

The height explanation doesn't work. If he were taller, she would need to roll the jeans up, not vice versa.

No. 3 Addicted to Addiction says:

Unless they would look like highwaters so she rolls them up to avoid that.

No. 4 ilnazhad says:

What? Wouldn't he need to roll the jeans up?

Anywho… enough about her JEANS already, mass media.

No. 5 Lisa (#1) says:

How much you want to bet Tom is wearing her jeans in return. "But hun, I let you wear mine."

Seriously, send that source back to elementary math class, those numbers are ca-rayzay! Oh! Unless, those are the jeans he wears with his shoes with the 3" lifts?

No. 6 yourmom says:

That explanation doesn't make it ok. She still looks silly. Why is she wearing her husbands pants? Can't afford to get any of her own?? Or because Tom is known for his fashion sense? Because her husband is such a queen that she has to be more masculine to balance him out? Because wearing his short pants makes her feel less like a giant next to him? It doesn't make any sense!! I don't wear my boyfriends jeans. Ya know why? Because he's 6'4 and I'm 5'6. And his jeans are nice!

Come back to earth Katie! We have jeans that fit you here!!

No. 7 vagarious says:

Um…wouldn't Tom's jeans look like capris on her if she wore them and rolled them up?

No. 8 Kate says:

this looks absofreakinlutely retarded. I do like her haircut, but seriously. Don't hurt your jeans like that!

I love that the explanation is totally ass-backwards. Thanks, US!

No. 10 B says:

more spin from the scientology front…the look is stupid, and no one really believes that those are toms jeans and that the taller katie must roll them up. These two live in their own fatasy land…with the kid that is too old for bottles (and please note that the bottle are the INFANT kind with the little baggie thing on the inside - not the kind of bottle you'd give juice to an older baby)

No. 12 Ruby Jackson says:

The point about his jeans being too short on her is valid, but maybe that's why she's wearing them with the waist down around her hips.

No. 13 Ruby Jackson says:

btw, I guess she's not hanging around with Victoria Beckham anymore, because she went from being a fashion plate (remember the rediculously fancy clothes she was wearing) to a slob.

No. 14 queencrone says:

I think the real story here is that Tom's been wearing HER jeans.

Initially, that's why she bought them extra long.
It was a passive-agressive attempt to stop him.

Let's not even talk about what has happened to her bras.

I like to put a nice poached salmon on my fashion plate.

Nope. I dont like it.

No. 19 Keeblerkahn says:

Katie wears the jeans in the family and Tom wears the skirt. That sounds about right.

No. 20 payter says:

I don't buy it. Hasn't Tom gotten a little … um… Chunky? Wouldn't those jeans be even more baggy than they are on stick thin (not to mention tall) Katie?
Her hair is VERY cute, but I am still refusing to tight roll my pants.

No. 21 payter says:

if they are Tommy's jeans - could it be that she is preggers? Just a thought…

Why does everyone think they just know Whitney so well?

I did dream last night that Cord was the tanning guy from Project Runway and Whitney was the frumpy one (SPOILER) that went home this week. But Whitney's friends were nicer to me and made me forget that I was living in New Jersey making no money.

Ahhh… consciousness.

No. 24 surlygirl says:

Tom Cruise wishes he was 5ft 7". I attended a private college in New England where Nicole Kidman filmed the movie, Malice, with Alec Baldwin (and a then unknown Gwyneth Paltrow whose character was killed off early in the movie). Tom visited her on set and was seen around our little college town. He's 5ft 6" at the most.
