Katie Holmes is queen of lean as she wears toga to unveil her toned new look
Updated 13:51pm on 10 Jan 2008Actress Katie Holmes could give notorious exercise addict Madonna a run for her money.
The wife of Tom Cruise who famously ran the New York marathon sans bra, appears to have stepped up her fitness regime judging by the muscular look she unveiled at an awards ceremony on Monday.
Wearing a cream one-shouldered toga-style gown covered in sequins, Katie's upper body appeared extremely toned, and devoid of a spare ounce of fat as she carried out presenting duties at the Critics' Choice Awards.

Muscle mama: Katie Holmes has undergone somewhat of a transformation but her new muscular look unveiled at last night's Critic's Choice Awards could give Madonna a run for her money
The mother-of-one continued her transformation from frumpy to fabulous which saw her back to her svelte pre-pregnancy weight just five months after the birth of her daughter Suri, 20 months.
With the help of a gruelling physical regime devised by husband Tom, the combination of Katie's marathon training, and gym workouts with a personal trainer helped the star regain her leading lady figure.

There's just one word for Katie Holmes' new look - lollipop!

It's hard to tell what shape her body is in under that towel she's wearing. From the look of her shoulders and arms though she looks decidedly too thin for me and as for giving Madonna a run for her money, she has thankfully escaped the half man-half women look favoured by Madonna with her bulging muscles and veiny arms and hands. That looks bad enough on a man but on a woman it looks horrendous.

Not surprised she wanted to cover up - she was probably worried about the press covering her inevitable cellulite/pregnancy/rolls of fat, which is all that ever seems to grace the pages these days. Boring.

She looks like every other woman on the streets of Manhattan. She looks fine to me, however what is the big deal about it?

To be honest I think this dress does nothing for Katie whatsoever.

She looks exactly the same as she always does.

Not sure about the dress! But of a sack in my opinion but she is pretty enough to get away with it.

Apparantly in order to look 'fabulous' all you need to do is go out in your bed sheet!
I don't see why she had to wear a spangly bed-sheet to "show off" her body. Surely a dress would have sufficed?

It definitely looks as if she has been listening to her new best friend Posh Spice too much. It is a sad reflection on society that the media only gives column inches to people who have become stick thin.

With all the work she's obviously put in it's a shame Tom couldn't sort someone out to look at her hair...

Stunning but looks very skinny to me - why do we celebrate weight loss so much?
