asley anne and kaya….

Trust me if u ask ur kids if they have chance to be born again and whom do they choose ..they will go for celebrity parents over u guys..No offense jus common sense.. so jus give it a rest…

when somebody tries to make most of the bad situation ..its not like they are pshycos who like but called positive frame of people …Food for thought

She definitely is cute.

I personally doubt that Suri is afraid of the paps. In most pics she looks extremely happy, and usually appears to “ham it up” for them. I would imagine she probably can’t remember life without them.

Someone commented about photos of her crying. How do we know she was crying because of the paps? She’s a toddler, she could have been crying for a variety of reasons.

Tom is criticized no matter what he says. If he slammed the paparazzi, some people would be up in arms and say it’s the price of fame and that he should quite complaining.

In my opinion, he seems to be trying to deal with a situation that will always be around his family, and is doing so in the most positive way he can.

I find it interesting that people act so offended by the paps. Yes, they often go too far, and I certainly don’t agree with that, but hello, where do you think most of the photos on this site come from? I for one enjoy looking at them, and I’m guessing most folks that visit this site do too, or we wouldn’t be here, right?

Stacy- I’ve seen more pictures of Suri happy than of Suri uspet (but then again, CBB and PEOPLE magazine are usually the only two places I go to look at celebrity baby photos, and both of them refuse to post pictures of upset children).

Of the ones I have seen of Suri upset, I’ve always been perplexed as to why people are making such a big fuss about it. For example, in one set of pictures, people claimed that Suri was covering her ears and trying to hide her face and was also “clearly upset”.

When I took a look at those pictures, Suri wasn’t trying to hide her face, nor did she look all that upset. She WAS, however, covering her ears, but I suspected (and still do) that that was because she maybe doesn’t like a lot of noise, no matter where or who it comes from.

In another set of pictures, she looked sleepy rather than tired to me. In still another, I thought she just looked like any normal, cranky toddler.

Since we aren’t there and thus don’t know the story behind those pictures/videos, I always choose to assume that perhaps something was already upsetting Suri before the paps showed up. and the paps just made it worst. Or maybe Suri was just having a bad day that day. I mean, come on, we all have bad days, and on our bad days, we probably look worse in photos than we do on our good days!

Anyway, obviously you and I have different opinions about this, so let’s just agree to disagree.

“I don’t think it’s the paps that make Suri uncomfortable, since Tom pretty much made it clear in this interview that Suri isn’t afraid of the paps. Suri is usually smiley and happy in paparazzi photos!”

Actually, that’s not really true. Yes, there have been pictures of her smiling and happy, but there have also been many, many instances in which she was clearly upset by all of the attention (squeezing her eyes shut, covering her face and/or ears, even crying). It’s not just the flashes, either. She’s done this in broad daylight, and it hasn’t been just a “few” times. I don’t know why Tom said that the attention doesn’t bother her; he’s observed this himself. I even saw a video on TMZ of Suri crying as Tom, Katie, Ben Stiller and his family were all leaving a restaurant after dinner. The paparazzi were relentless, and Suri was obviously very frightened and upset. I agree with Mandy, Ashley Anne, and kayla. Tom’s comments on this matter are very troubling.

ashley anne, I completely agree! It’s disturbing to me.

Mandy- I don’t think it’s the paps that make Suri uncomfortable, since Tom pretty much made it clear in this interview that Suri isn’t afraid of the paps.

In fact, Suri is usually smiley and happy in paparazzi photos! As for the few times we’ve seen her looking uncomfortable, I’m guessing it was something other than the paps making her that way (maybe she was just having a bad day? Maybe she was just having a typical two-year-old meltdown about something? Maybe she was blinking because of the camera flashes, but wasn’t actually bothered by the paps?).

And I have seen other celeb kids looking uncomfortable in pap photos, Zahara Jolie-Pitt for one (that poor little girl IS afraid of the paps. Brad has said so mutiple times).

I think tom is a nice guy and a good dad. Great attotude towards the paparazzi too, and suri is a beautiful child.

i find these statements to be quite disturbing. sure they’re a very high profile couple who no doubt have a beautiful daughter, but how can you be supportive of a group of men who crowd your two year in order to make money off of a picture of her? i’ve even seen videos where he waits for them to get enough pictures of her before he leaves and she seems more than over it by then. i just don’t get how this is being very protective of her? there are plenty of celebrities that try to avoid their child from being too exposed. suri didn’t choose to be born into this life. i find it very exploitative.

I don’t think he is thankful for the paps, does he say that anywhere? He just acknowledges that they have taken some great photos of his daughters. It’s probably the inly upside of being followed around by them!

I like that his attitude though, the paps are part of the package that come with a multi million dollar paycheck.
