Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes Want Andrea Bocelli

Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes are to be serenaded at their wedding by Italian
tenor Andrea Bocelli.

The couple are reportedly tying the knot at 15th century castle Odescalchi,
near Rome, on November 18 and it is rumoured that Bocelli will perform.

The blind tenor has confirmed to Italian press that he has been invited to
the wedding, but won't yet comment on whether he will treat the happy couple
and star-studded guests to a performance.

Giorgio Armani is designing Katie's wedding dress as well as a set of
outfits for her and Tom to wear during the three-day celebrations beginning
on November 17.

It is believed the 'Top Gun' actor has agreed to a compromise to appease
Katie's Catholic parents and there will be both a Scientology and Catholic
ceremony.

The former 'Dawson's Creek' actress is to wear Clive Christian No. 1
perfume, which costs $2,350 an ounce, during the extravagant nuptials
It is also rumoured that a number of Italian socialites are so keen to be at
the wedding, they are prepared to work at the big day.

A source said: "Several of the aristocratic female friends of Princess
Odescalchi, the owner of the castle location, apparently went to her and
asked to work for free as hostesses at the wedding.

"The princess' response to her friends was, 'No thank you. I don't even know
if I'm going to be invited myself.'"

How Tom Cruise Protected Nicole Kidman

Nicole Kidman allegedly had a clause written into her prenuptial agreement with Keith Urban that he had to go to rehab if he started drinking or taking drugs again - on the insistence of ex-husband Tom Cruise.

According to reports, country music star Keith did not check himself into rehab to be treated for alcohol addition voluntarily last month, but because of a legal obligation in his prenup specified by Tom to protect his children with Nicole.

A source told Us Weekly magazine: "Nicole's lawyer put this clause in to demonstrate to Tom that Keith's past problems wouldn't affect the kids."

The 39-year-old 'Cold Mountain actress has two adopted children with Tom, Connor, 11, and Isabella, 13.

Since Nicole remarried she has not seen much of the children as they have spent most of their time with Tom and his new fiancée Katie Holmes.
Nicole has also had to put her baby plans on hold since Keith was admitted to rehab.

A source said: "Nicole will not entertain plans for kids until she is sure Keith is back on track and clean again. They are both very much in love and have often talked about starting a family but all that has been pushed aside while he deals with his problem. She already has two much-loved children and while she's mothering Keith she's hardly going to be in a good position to have more."

The couple married this summer and Nicole has made no secret that she would like to have a baby.

She said: "I'd like to give birth to a baby. I'd feel blessed if that was given to me."
