Kids do the darnedest things!

Katie Holmes stopped by The Ellen DeGeneres Show (to air Friday, April 1st) and cleared up those recent controversial photos of Suri holding a box of X-rated candy. We wondered how she got those!

Mrs. Tom Cruise explains to Ellen:

Katie: Recently, I took her to get ice cream in New York at this place called Serendipity that we go to all the time. It's for kids. The clientele is children. We go in and we are waiting for a table and she grabs some gummies that are boy part gummies. I was horrified.
Ellen: Boy part?
Katie: P-e-n-*-s (Katie spells it out) gummies. I said, oh wow those aren't Swedish fish. They are called p-e-n-*-s gummies and they look like it. She was holding the box and I was like ok, wow we don't need that right now.

Suri will definitely get a kick out of the "adult" gummy photos when she's older!
