An 18 year-old virgin with aspirations of stardom has borrowed Katie Holmes name for her debut. She has plans to use the name 'Katee Holmes' as her screen name despite the angry reaction of Katie Holmes and Tom Cruise. Her dream is to lose her virginity on the big screen.
Implications - At the end of the day, there is really nothing either celebrity can do about her decision, and it's fairly likely that the intentionally similar screen name will garner the aspiring actress a considerable mount of attention. With that being said, however, Katie and Tom's outrage will likely only further increase that benefit. A little infamy can go a long way, especially when it comes to an industry like Katee's.
