Who's Suri Cruise's real daddy?

"Yes, Suri, She's Our Baby." That's the Vanity Fair headline making news today. Yes, Suri Cruise exists. Upon that we can agree. But as my perceptive colleague Lauren Beckham Falcone points out, something about this photo looks awfully familiar.

Kate Katie Holmes told VF about her daughter, Suri: "She has Tom's eyes. I think she looks like Tom." Um. She also looks more than a bit like every other celebrity Scientology baby daughter. Is this the start of Clone Wars: Battlefield Earth??? What does a baby picture of L. Ron Hubbard turned female look like? They need to take this to Maury Povich and settle it once and for all. That'd really make Tom Cruise jump up and down on a sofa, wouldn't it?
