Tom Cruise wants American Idol runner-up to sing at wedding

New daddy Tom Cruise, wearing a New York Yankees cap, took fiancée Katie Holmes to fellow actor Jim Carrey's house for a Memorial Day party sans baby Suri Cruise (almost two months). On Saturday, Golden Globe-winning actor Jim Carrey, 44, will receive the MTV Generation Award for his memorable movie performances -- The Mask, The Truman Show and Ace Ventura: Pet Detective, to name a few. Tom Cruise, 43, was the first recipient of the MTV Generation Award during last year's Movie Awards show. The 2006 MTV Movie Awards will air next Thursday, June 8 on MTV.

Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes have secretly asked American Idol runner-up Katharine McPhee to sing at their upcoming wedding.

Actress Holmes reportedly met McPhee at Los Angeles' Church of Scientology, where the singer allegedly attended courses with her boyfriend, and has since become a huge fan of the pretty brunette.

And, after McPhee lost out to Taylor Hicks in the Idol finale last week, the celebrity couple got in touch with the California girl and asked her to perform at their wedding ceremony.

A source close to the couple says, "Tom and Katie have become Katharine's biggest fans. They think she's destined to become a singing legend."

And Cruise's War of the Worlds director Steven Spielberg is also a big McPhee fan--he has set up a meeting with the Idol star to discuss a possible future in films.
