Katie Holmes celebrated her 30th birthday on Thursday, December 18 and husband Tom Cruise said he had something special planned. What did he surprise her with?
Pics after the jump!
Katie first went to The Baryshnikov Arts Center by herself, then was picked up by her bodyguard and daughter Suri. The mother-daughter duo then went to an Upper East Side bakery and returned home to their Soho apartment after running a few errands.
Later, Holmes performed her Broadway show All My Sons and that's where Cruise surprised his wife with a specially-made birthday cake. As the curtain fell, the cast and crew presented her with the five-tiered, white-frosted, circular cake. The crowed applauded.
Co-star John Lithgow announced, "Tom Cruise, our good friend, devoted fan to the show, doting husband of Katie, could not be here tonight. He's heartsick that he couldn't be here... but he wanted to make his presence felt. So, he's joining us, inviting all of you, to celebrate Katie's birthday."
Tom told PEOPLE, "I planned it so that when she comes out for the standing ovation, John [would] get the whole audience to wish her a happy birthday." He said that they celebrated privately the night before and "that was the big one." Uh, ya, I hope so - because if I was married to Tom Cruise, he'd better get me more than a freakin' cake!
Katie was reportedly surprised and she brought out 2-year-old Suri to help her blow out the birthday candles on the cake. The birthday girl said to the audience, "Thank you for coming out to the show tonight. It was a real pleasure."
Maybe the night before, she and Tom were working on adding to their family?
