Katie Holmes is “Manhattan’s Most Valued Shopper” after spending more than $14 million during her 6 months in New York, the Post estimates. Dining at hot spots like Nobu accounts for more than $7,000, while dressing herself and Suri racked up at least $17,000. But the bulk of the tally comes from the Cruises’ rumored acquisition of three more lofts during Holmes’ Broadway run.
“Union Square is getting increasingly hip,” says a real-estate maven of the lofts’ location, but notes that having Tom around (though the Cruise camp denies the purchases) probably won’t help the building: “There’s that sense that he’s a bit odd. I don’t think you’re going to see a ton of people clamoring to move next door.”
