Katie Holmes Loads Up On Lindt

Katie Holmes picks some goodies from the Lindt Chocolate store on Friday (October 23) in Boston, Mass.

The 30-year-old actress recently admitted who her favorite actress is. Katie told Elle, “Cyd Charisse. I’ve seen Singing in the Rain probably 100 times. She’s so elegant and strong, but there’s an effortlessness to her performance that is just jaw-dropping.”

As for her own acting process, Katie shared, “I’m always writing things down about why the person is doing this. I write on my script, on loose paper, on a newspaper in the car, with a crayon on a coloring book. A character’s clothing is important to me. I want to know why she chose that jacket. Has she had it forever? What does that say about her? When I’m wearing it, I feel like I know this person and I understand where she is at that moment.”

FYI: Katie‘s scarf and boots are by Madewell.
