Katie has been listed among those chosen to be featured in People’s annual Most Beautiful People Issue.

Her good looks and fashion sense made Holmes a natural choice to play Jackie O. in the TV biopic The Kennedys. But the 32-year-old star mom felt a connection to the former First Lady that was more than skin deep. “She had so much strength. … I loved her love of family, how important it was for her to be a good mother,” Holmes told Elle.

A few days ago Katie did an appearance on Ellen. I personally always love her interviews. Here are two clips from the show!

‘The Kennedys” has given ReelzChannel a landslide victory.

The controversial $25 million miniseries starring Greg Kinnear as JFK and Katie Holmes as Jackie averaged 1.9 million viewers Sunday night on Reelz, according to Nielsen.

Those are huge numbers for Reelz, a regional cable network that screens movies 24/7 — and usually averages only around 3 million viewers a week.

“They actually accomplished their goal, which was to put them on the map and create appointment viewing,” says industry analyst Brad Adgate of Horizon Media.

The network, which is owned by Minnesota-based Hubbard Broadcasting, reportedly coughed up $7 million for “The Kennedys” after it was dropped by History — reportedly under pressure from members of the Kennedy family including Caroline Kennedy and JFK niece Maria Shriver.

Reelz spent another $10 million to advertise the eight-part miniseries, and even launched on Time Warner Cable (Ch. 131) just last month in a bid to lure New York viewers to “The Kennedys.”

“They needed to rise above the clutter and get people to watch — and they used a very sharp plan and strategy,” Adgate says.

New episodes of “The Kennedys” air tonight through Friday at 8 p.m. — with the two-hour finale airing Sunday night.

Jess and I apologize for having disappeared the past little while … but we are going to get the site caught back up. So for today I have updated the gallery with the last few events that Kate has attended.
