What tough economic times? One celebrity mom laid down a lot of moola in the past six months - approximately $14 million! Who is it and what did she spend the money on?
Find out after the jump!
Katie Holmes, who has been in NYC since last July so she could appear in the Broadway show, All My Sons, has been spending a few bucks.
Holmes and daughter Suri, 2 1/2, frequent the city's best restaurants, and both love to shop at the finest stores.
From Page Six:
"While ordinary city dwellers are cutting back, Mrs Cruise has been valiantly doing her bit to boost our economy.
"We tally up a conservative estimate of her 24-week NYC spending spree, and crown her Manhattan's Most Valued Shopper."
It's believed Katie spent almost $14,000 on child care for Suri. And to be fair, the $14 million most likely includes their three new apartments, which would take up a good chunk of that change (Katie and Suri are living in one of them).
A Cruise rep denies the real estate purchases but Barbara Corcoran, areal estate exec, says that the couple did indeed by a trio of lofts in 2008.
Besides the apartments and child care, it's estimated that the couple spend over $7,000 on a private gym, including space for Suri. Another $7,300 was spent at fancy restaurants and $17,000 laid out for clothes for Katie and Suri.
Um, do they want to adopt me? I'm house-broken and mind my manners.
