The reason TomKat snubbed Oprah!

An insider reveals to Life and Style magazine the story behind Oprah’s lack of an invitation to Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes’ celebration parties.

“Tom’s always been angry that Oprah gave so many outlets permission to air and re-air his couch-jumping stunt, because it got blown out of proportion. He wouldn’t have minded if the moments preceding and following the jump got the same play as the actual act. The funny thing about Tom is that he still insists he didn’t do anything wrong on that show and that it was all innocent fun.”

Tom’s wedding… a Scientology recruitment?

A lot of people were scratching their heads when they saw Jennifer Lopez and Jim Carrey among the guests at Tom Cruise’s wedding to Katie Holmes last month in Italy, wondering what the possible connection could be. Some assumed it was the super-agency CAA, which reps both Cruise and Carrey and used to handle J.Lo.

But insiders say the mystery link among the superstars is actually the Church of Scientology. "Jim is taking the introductory and beginner’s courses right now."

Another source notes that Lopez, a close friend of Scientologist Leah Remini, "has started using Scientology phrases and explains the church to people. Leah and Jennifer have been friends for years, and Leah has always talked to her about the church without pressuring her. We can see Scientology appealing to Jennifer because, in the early stages, it is a lot of self-help."

However, Lopez’s husband, Marc Anthony, is a devout Catholic and is probably resistant to Scientology, which believes in space aliens but not a God. Some observers speculate that Lopez, who has had trouble conceiving in the past, could be leaning to the Scientologists for help in having a baby. Reps for Lopez said, "I have no knowledge of this, but I probably wouldn’t have a comment on it if I did."

A mouthpiece for Carrey insisted, "He is not taking classes."

Meanwhile, Hollywood bigwigs were awed at a display of "sheer rudeness" by Cruise at the premiere of "The Pursuit of Happyness" in Hollywood the other night. Sony chief Amy Pascal "was introducing the movie, and during her speech Tom gets up, goes over to Will [Smith] and starts talking to him - and then says, ‘Hey, Katie! Come over here and say hi to Will!’ during Amy’s speech. It was in bad taste." A rep for Cruise declined comment.

Oprah snubbed again by TomKat?

It’s been a rough couple of weeks for Oprah.

First, in the wake of the Kramer racial slur incident her best friend Gayle announced on her XM radio show that she and her good friends –one of whom everyone assumed to be Oprah, of course… I mean, does she have any other friends?– used the n-word. The reaction to that little slip-up was intense, leading to Gayle’s second announcement that she had decided to "rethink" the use of the word.

Next, Fifty Cent called Oprah an "Oreo" and said she caters to middle-aged white women more than to black women.

And now, the biggest insult of all… snubbed not once, but TWICE by that wacky pair of scientologists the TomKats.

It was bad enough that the couple failed to ask her to their Italian marriage. I mean, Cruise and Winfrey have been friends for many years and he made his infamous couch-jumping "I’m in love" speech regarding Holmes on Oprah’s show!

Yet Winfrey was noticeably left off the list to the ceremony in Bracciano, Italy - even though celebrities such as J-Lo, and Jim Carrey, who are not known to be friends of Cruise, were invited.

Now this saturday, a chance to make amends is lost… Oprah hasn’t been invited to the party the newleyweds are throwing for those who didn’t make the trip to Italy. Don’t feel bad Oprah! You and Gayle can have fun by yourselves with a girls night, a pillow fight, and naughty words!
