BEIJING, Aug. 28
(Xinhuanet) -- Hollywood star Tom Cruise has been voted the world's sexist
celebrity at 14th Annual Ernie Awards in Sydney for
his derogatory and sexist public statements.
Cruise won for a comment he made about his pregnant
partner Katie Holmes: "I've got Katie tucked away so no one will get to us until
my child is born."
According to contactmusic.com, Holmes has put her career
on hold since she started dating Cruise and is currently raising their baby Suri
at home.
Cruise's ex-wife Nicole Kidman had admitted earlier
that she placed her career in second place to support his films and caring for
the couple's adopted children Connor and Isabella.
About 400 of Australia's most powerful women gathered in
the New South Wales state parliament late Thursday to decide on the winners of
the 14th annual "Ernie Awards" which are handed out for the worst derogatory
public remarks.
The Ernie Awards are named after a former trade union
leader that also represented sheep shearers for his comment that women were not
welcome in shearing sheds because they were only after sex. Enditem
