I think the Death Grip is Tom's way of saying 'Tell anyone, I mean anyone, about my status in the upper echelons of my faux religion, and I will...well, I'll...I dunno...send you to psychiatrist and have them say you're crazy! Yes, crazy! I will, I promise!"
And somehow I hear all that in a weird, not-of-this-world alien accent. But maybe that's all just me...

Rumor has it that the baby is depressed that Tom Cruise is his father, and it's going to have to be a Scientologist. I'd be bummed in the burner, too, baby.

Oh, and why does Tommy have to keep up with the "hey look, I'm normal TOO!" thingy in the media? It's like everything he does with her, romantic/relationship-wise, is a caricature of itself - hollow, empty, and completely made-for-hollywood.
Reminds me of a guy I knew once, whose demeanor post-divorce (after messy affair) was a miserable attempt at trying to convince himself, and everyone around him, that he was "happy". It looked more like the guy couldn't shake his guilt over his role in the breakup and had to keep justifying his "good" emotional mindset to the world, because otherwise, "they" wouldn't understand - but instead, it looked like the only person he was really trying to convince was his own conscience.
Someone want to pay the delivering hospital staff money to collect hair samples from Tom, Katie, and baby, to determine paternity? Oh, don't forget Kevin (Federline) too...just in case he was pinch hitting...er, spurting.

Let's all hope that Katie doesn't suffer from Post-Partum depression, or she's toast.
She may have to be "entertained" by the entire history of psychology as told by Maverick. If it were me, I'd be slitting my wrists.

Ian Fleming, in one of the Bond novels, asserted that this sort of death grip was exciting to women.

But Mary, careful analysis of their gender reveals that Britney Spears is a lot different than Tom Cruise. She is a bimbo trashy babe with no talent. He, on the other hand, is merely a guy. Of course everyone wants to see her and the countless others like her that Kevin is kind enough to post. But Tom Cruise? Please, give your attentive readers Paris or Kate Moss. :)

Boagart photos, IIRC, oft featured a very similar throat grip motif. I googled Bogart in images and found several such with Bergman and Bacall.
Speaking personally, I'd not have wanted either of those two ladies getting away from me either, but I'll leave it to others as to whether either of them measure up to Bogart/Bacall/Bergman. ;-)

I'm happy these days to read about two MARRIED (or soon to be, in this case) people who want a family, actually having that family. I hope that Tom Cruise and his wife, Katie (soon to be) have a happy child and more to come.
That's the extent of my emotion about this but I do find the neck grabbing an ugly pose. It might have a lot to do with their height issues, and what the camera captures, as to why Cruise resorts to the effort when the cameras are near. He DOES make his living in front of cameras, to state the obvious; however, the body language involved is troubling.
