Katie Holmes put her daughter Suri, 3, in a pair of red ballet-style flats to run around a race track in Boston.

Holmes, who ran the New York marathon last year, appeared to be in training as she hit the track in her jogging gear. The actress has been spotted countless times running with her husband Tom Cruise in Melbourne and Boston of late. Cruise’s teenage son, Connor, accompanied the pair on one of the health-conscious outings.

Cruise, meanwhile, is working on his brand new movie, Wichita, which co-stars Cameron Diaz.

Suri is said to be enrolled at a Catholic pre-school in Boston in what was reported as a victory for her mother over Cruise’s ardent Scientology beliefs.

The tiny girl was typically irresistible as she tried to ape her mother, running in a dress in the track’s red lanes.

In an interview this week, Katie revealed Suri is so comfortable being in the limelight that she almost crawled on stage during a performance of her Broadway show.

The cheeky youngster made her daring move last year while Katie starred in the Arthur Miller play, All My Sons.

Holmes says her daughter was always with her backstage at the theatre.

She told the U.S. edition of Elle magazine: ‘Suri would sit in my lap in the make-up chair. She’d hand the wig lady the bobby pins.’

She also admits that she loves being a mother saying: ‘In my own life, my whole world really revolves around family.

‘I do what I need to do, but it’s like: “How is everybody else doing?”‘

Katie Holmes is about to head back to the US after completing her latest film in Australia.

Katie’s superstar husband Tom Cruise will fly into Melbourne by private jet this week after she completes work on Don’t Be Afraid Of The Dark.

They will then fly out with daughter Suri, 3, and head back to Los Angeles.

A special party is expected to be held for Katie to be attended by co-stars Guy Pearce and nine-year-old Bailee Madison.

A spokesman for the horror movie said: “Katie’s role is coming to an end. All the principal photography has been done. There are one or two loose ends to tie up and then the movie will be in post production for a year.

“The crew are planning to have several wrap parties and Katie is likely to attend at least one with her co stars.”

Katie has been staying in the luxurious penthouse suite at the city’s Crown Towers hotel during her stay. Tom has also been to Melbourne several times. The couple have explored the city with Suri, including going to the zoo and various theatre shows.

Divas Friends

Cameron Diaz pitched in for a 9/11 commemorative event with the Boston Celtics.

Diaz, and JR Giddens and Bill Walker of the Celtics, along with some 125 volunteers, planted flower beds around a Boston elementary school on September 11.

Volunteers built a basketball court, an outdoor classroom and a garden at the Young Achievers Science and Mathematics Pilot School in the Mattapan neighbourhood.

“She literally dug in and helped build some walled gardens at the school,” said Wyc Grousbeck of the Celtics. He had met Diaz in Las Vegas at the NBA All-Star Game in 2007.

He added: “She was hauling lumber, digging holes and hammering nails. She’s a really good person – not one of the phoneys.”

Diaz will start filming Wichita next week in Worcester with Tom Cruise. She brought along her assistants and personal trainer in a Prius to the event, which was sponsored by the Celtics, Harvard Pilgrim Health Care and City Year.

Diaz is a volunteer with a City Year-like organisation in Los Angeles, which is how she became involved.

Spanish beauty Penelope Cruz has revealed she is such a perfectionist professionally that it sometimes spills over into all areas of her life, including the personal side.

The actress confessed: "Every time I make a film, I feel like it’s my first time … I always think they could fire me.

"I’ve ruined my own happiness and created problems with my friends because of this tendency. It takes discipline for me to stop worrying.

"I have a tendency to become a mother to everyone around me. My brother and sister are always complaining that I’m too protective."

Cruz, who was formerly a girlfriend of Tom Cruise, is now dating Javier Bardem.

Of the fellow Spanish actor, she said: "He’s a wonderful man, a great actor."

Cruz said she could see children in her horizon – even though she doesn’t believe in marriage.

She added: "I want to have babies one day but not right now. When I do it, I want to do it really well. I want it to be my best project in life.

"I don’t know if I believe in marriage. I believe in family, love and children."

Cruz’s latest films include Nine, Vicky Cristina Barcelona and G-Force, for which she provided the voice of Juarez.

Melbourne is already preparing for the onslaught of TomKat.

The film studio where Katie Holmes is scheduled to film Don’t Be Afraid of the Dark is already hunkering into security lockdown, it was reported.

The movie’s producers, Miramax Films, have reportedly confirmed the Docklands film set will spare nothing in the way of security. "Please keep in mind as of now it’s going to be a closed set," said Lawrence Angrisani, Miramax’s senior vice-president of international publicity.

Whether or not Holmes will be accompanied by husband Tom Cruise for her stay – said to be three months – is yet to be confirmed. But the rumours of a Cruise sojourn have gathered steam this week.

A Melbourne tabloid has reported the pair will be installed at the newly refurbished luxury top floor of Crown Towers. The suite, which costs $A27,500 a night and takes up the entire 39th floor, is being refurbished as part of the $50 million refit of the casino complex, which is owned by entertainment mogul James Packer.

Room 3918 has been occupied by some of the world’s greatest high-rollers and not even a visiting US president, Bill Clinton, could dislodge guest George Lu in 2001.

Holmes, it was noted, has not been in Australia since the memorial service for Packer’s father, Kerry, in 2006. The couple attended the wedding of Packer and Erica Baxter in the south of France the following year.
