Chasing Stars

TELLURIDE, Colo. _ A couple months ago I was playing with tigers in Thailand, and now I'm on the hunt for a TomKat.

As in Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes.

The mega stars are at their Telluride home with their famous toddler, and I've been sent here by celeb glossy Us Weekly to cover their every move.

I haven't actually seen either of them yet. Only heard stories from the locals. Apparently I just missed Katie in town. In the window of her favorite coffee shop a local artist had posted a photo of Tom behind a Scientology pulpit with the word "BELIEVE" written on it. Katie popped in to ask what that was all about (this according to the lovely and chatty Steaming Bean employees). By the end of the weekend Tom's people had it taken down. Guess he isn't a believer.

For all those celeb news lovers here's the rundown:

Oprah was in town to film a special with Tom celebrating his 25 years in film. She had a personal chef go to the local grocer before every meal to pick up whatever it was she craved.

TomKat rented out the local BBQ joint one night and brought 30 people with them to dine. Apparently Suri's tush has never touched a high chair. Sources say she was held the entire time. At another restaurant, the waiter emphatically shook his head "no" when asked if Suri had sat anywhere other than her mother's lap at lunch.

Katie is thought as kind of a snob in town. She isn't unpleasant but she doesn't really acknowledge anyone else but her entourage.

I'm hoping I'll cash in big and get a photo of little Suri. Then I can retire at 26, a millionaire.
