Brooke Shields Distracted on TomKitten Birth Day

Brooke Shields is amused that she and Tom Cruise’s wife, Katie Holmes, delivered babies in the same hospital on the same day.

Brooke Shields says “the irony is perfect” that her daughter, Grier, and Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes’ daughter, Suri, were born on the same day.

Shields and Cruise had a public beef last year after the “Mission: Impossible III” star criticized the actress for taking antidepressants after the birth of daughter Rowan, who turns 3 this month, her first child with TV producer-husband Chris Henchy. “You know, the irony is perfect,” Shields tells newsmagazine “Access Hollywood” in an interview that was to air Monday night. “The world works in an interesting way, but we (were) both pretty busy that day.” Both children were born April 18, reportedly in the same Los Angeles hospital. “Yeah, rumor has it,” Shields, 40, says. “Again, I was pretty distracted.”

When asked if she had any run-ins with Cruise at the hospital, she replied: “No. God, no, and it’s a gift having kids, you know, so it’s a beautiful thing rather than anything else.”

Was Brooke trying to outdo TomKat by naming her child something even worse than “Suri”? I mean, Suri sounds pleasantly-exotic. Grier sounds like a last name and looks like someone misspelled “crier”.

(No offense to Pam Grier or David Allen Grier.)
