Now see, I view this as a rather brilliant satire of the celebrity culture that America is so obsessed with.
That said, I wouldn't buy it.

Hmmm..... it is like satire without actually intending to be satire. It's as if the universe is poking fun at celebrities somehow.

Well since this is art,
and life imitates art and art imitates life, especially when it's trying to be funny,
then life is trying be funny.

That is creepy, disgusting, and psychologically fucked up.
What kind of parents show off literally speaking their childs shit?
foot and hand prints, or bronzed baby shoes are one thing, but the first Mr. Hanky is just screwed up.
Suri (what kind fucking name is that anyway?) is going to grow up so fucked up that it'll take an army of psychologists to just barely make her a productive member of society.
Poke fun all you want, but think of the poor kid.

And here I thought Tom Cruise couldn't get any weirder. I have been proven wrong.

It's the child of TOM CRUISE. Of course the kid is going to be fucked up in the head.

One that has met the approval of the Church of Scientology.
Yeah, serious.
And a couple of you seem to be completely oblivious to the fact that the piece is a work of satire art. Really, did you even read the whole damn article?
The artist behind the work, Daniel Edwards, previously courted controversy with a life-size nude sculpture of pop star Britney Spears giving birth on a bearskin rug. That work was shown at the same gallery in April.

Ok the question that comes to my mind, how long did the kid run around without a diaper before? They say solid stool, does that mean they were waiting for all of the running early stuff to go through, if so, was some one watching the kid 24/7 on poop alert?
This is way more then every needs to be know about anyone really. I hope to Xenu that Suri grows up to be the anti-Hubbard

"A bronzed cast of baby's first poop can be a meaningful memento for the family," gallery director David Kesting said...
Abandon hope for humanity or rofl? Maybe both?

Oh gosh that is sickening. Really, utterly sickening. Here's to hoping that Child Protective Services swoops down and retrieves that child from the claws of his insane, retarded, sick, sociopathic, coprophiliac parents.

Given some of Cruise's previous shenanigans I wouldn't have been overly surprised one way or another.

Of course it's not for real, babies don't start having solid shits for months. Not until you put them on solid food, even then they don't get a crap like that out unless their constipated.

I guess that really proves more than anything that the artist has never had kids.

Still, even though its not real, what kind of sick wacko actually has a bronze turd even as a joke?

It's satire, specifically a comment on media and public obsession with celebrity.

Wait, this was on the Oddball segment of Countdown, I thought it was made by the same guy that also made... that statue of a naked Britney Spears giving birth. [cough]
