Suri Cruise Puts on Her Dancing Shoes

Sounds like Suri Cruise might be ready to be a star already. Tom and Katie brought their fashionable 2-year-old to tap class in LA yesterday. Look at those tap shoes — so adorable and the perfect addition to her growing collection. After a week of visiting Connor on set — not to mention her, uh, parents in the business — little Suri's already honing her own talent. While a tap class full of 2-year-olds sounds pretty precious all around, I bet little Suri stole the show.

    hmmm... why can't they let her just grow up to be a normal kid? Why are they already turning her into a performing monkey at the age of 2? I just think its kinda sad...its nice when kids have activities like this, but age 2??? Not cool.

    Tap dancing at 2? Not necessary. Nor is drinking from a bottle and being carried everywhere. But she's still a cutie.

    I agree. 2 is really young for that kind of lesson- her feet aren't even really developed yet! I hope it's the kind of class where the kids are all just sort of playing around and not taking it too seriously. I wonder whose idea this was- mama or papas? Maybe Katie Holms took tap as a kid and loved it or something.

    Thank you Little K! I thought I was the only one here...a BOTTLE at 2? And a pacifier all the time?? It's terrible!

    And I started ballet and tap dancing at 3, and I was the youngest in my class and most people when they hear about it today or see a picture of me back then, they don't believe that i was only 3 b/c that young is very uncommon. But 2? Wow! You're still learning walking techniques, but to be able to tap dance? It means even more so why she shouldn't be sporting a bottle still!

    Dear God, thankfully Katie has been photographed with a sippy cup and people on blogs all over the world and chill! I bet a dance class with 2 year olds is adorable and probably lots of fun for them.

    I don't think they accomplish much at this age. The shows are just for show and to get her hyped up about going perhaps. I agree about the bottle, but it looks like they are trying to transition her to the sippy cup.

    I think 2 year olds should just be allowed to be ...well...2 year olds ...but that's my opinion....to each her own

    Hmmmm....my cousin is a dance teacher, I think her classes are the younger kids. I'll have to ask her one of these days what the youngest age group is. (I have the age of 4 in my head...I don't know why, she might have been gushing about one of her classes at the last family gathering)

    Brangelina's girls are normal cute and not always dressed up in party dresses. Suri's creepy cute in the chucky way and is NEVER in regular kid clothes. I bet they are grooming her to be the next Shirley Temple.

    I mean how much tapping do some of you think Suri is actually doing? shes 2! shes probably just running around most of the time, its just something to do to keep a toddler up and going.

    its cute! - IMO

    Suri's always up and going. According to mommy, kid doesn't go to bed until 11:00 or until her and Tommy Girl go to bed.

    I was reading an article this morning about Leah Remini (who is also a Scientologist), and she said she is still trying to get her daughter off of the bottle. So what's the deal?? Do they think it will hurt the child's feelings to take the bottle away?? I don't get it.

    Leah Remini is an idiot. Her daughter also still sleeps with her parents and throws tantrums if she doesn't get popsicles for breakfast.

    JenFan1, why does tap class make her into a performing monkey? i took dance that early, as does my nieces, are we looking to cash that in? Kids take dance to improve motor functions, learn socially, exercise.....

    i don't hate Suri, but she does creep me out. i wouldn't want her looking at me too long. do we EVER see this kid with her hair messed up or her clothes a little dirty or crying or eating an ice cream cone? it's not normal.

    I don't think the bottle is the culprit, I think it's the sugar barley crap they give their kids that is hard to ween them off. Maybe it tastes better or is less grainy or something through a nipple? Who knows? All I know is that she's not my kid, so she could be drinking it from a toilet and it wouldn't make any difference to me.

    We only see Suri out with her parents. I imagine she plays and gets dirty and eats ice cream cones when the paps aren't around.

    TAP DANCING is turning her into a performing monkey? Could she not just be having fun? My 18 month old goes to a (okay, slightly more free form) dance class, but I haven't contacted any agents yet. Should I worry I'm throwing away her childhood, all the same?

    When I was in high school, I taught ballet to 3 year olds and it was more of a creative movement type of thing. We would put on some kid music and hold hands in a circle and point our toes among other things. Dance classes for young children are not structured like they are for adults. The kids in my class had a lot of fun and really enjoyed it. At this age it is just basic movement.

    Dance classes burn up some of that energy 3 year olds are known for. I think that 2 or 3 years old is not too young for dance class, think about it, there are mommy and me yoga classes. Teaching our children to be active at a young age is a great thing considering most children in America are obese.

    Maybe Suri just wanted tap shoes cause they click on floors.
    Didn't YOU want clicky shoes when you were a kid? I totally did. and my mom didn't even wear heals! imagine having to witness Katie clicking all over the place.

    Hey Sarah22 ~ did you wear diapers at age 4? 'Cause Leah Remini's kid does.

    Suri looks cute, but I agree, she probably won't be learning too much right now. But hey, she is The Chosen One, so let's not under-estimate her!
