Katie Holmes: “My Whole World Really Revolves Around Family"

Who knew Joey Potter was such a homemaker?!

A stunning Katie Holmes graces the November issue of Elle Magazine, and we're not sure if it's the sexy orange dress or the playful smirk on her face, but Mrs. Tom Cruise is looking better than ever!

We haven't seen Katie on the big screen in a while (we'll have to wait until next year to see her in The Extra Man), but it looks like the actress has really taken to the role of dedicated mom and wife.

On family life:

“In my own life, my whole world really revolves around family. I do what I need to do, but it’s like, ‘How is everybody else doing?’ And it’s wonderful for me as an actress to put some of that into a character.”

On life as a working mom on the Broadway set of All My Sons:

“Suri would sit in my lap in the makeup chair. She’d hand the wig lady the bobby pins.“

On fashion:

"I love Alaia, for sure. Stella McCartney. I like Ralph Lauren because I feel like it’s very American, and I’m pretty all-American, from Ohio. Isabel Marant and a new designer, Sari Gueron."

On the genre of film she loves most:

"It can be any genre. I even like vampire movies – they just have to be well done. I want to believe in the characters. The minute it starts to feel not real, I’m not interested.”
