Tomkats wedding sham

Tom and Katie married before Italian weddingThe fairytale Italian wedding of Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes has been branded a stunt after the pair admitted they got hitched days before the celebrity bash.

Critics labelled the lavish ceremony a sham intended to promote the Church of Scientology.

Bracciano Mayor Patrizia Riccioni is considering taking back the honorary citizenship she offered the couple before they wed because the small village was so offended by the behaviour of Mr and Mrs Cruise.

"It would have been nice for them to stop and wave," she said.

A Catholic priest in the village, Father Nicola Fiorentini, said the town felt insulted.

"It wasn't a wedding at all. It was just for publicity," he said.
