Tom Cruise took Katie and Suri down to Rio de Janeiro for a little family vacation constitutional this weekend. Oh, I'm sorry, did I say family vacation? Because what I meant was elaborate image-repairing PR photoshoot stunt. Considering that no matter where the three went, they just seemed to have photographers following them that they were all too happy to smile and wave at. "Oh hey, look at me, Mr. Joe Normal who doesn't manhandle my wife like a sack of potatoes! In fact, I can even use this free hand that I'm not using to forcibly drag her around to wave at you good people!" I'm just amazed that Suri was able to restrain herself from rolling her eyes in each photo.
