Tom: Katie Due 'Any Minute'
Katie Holmes and Tom Cruise
With fiancée Katie Holmes close to giving birth, expectant dad Tom Cruise still found time on Saturday to sit for a brief interview on German TV to promote his movie Mission: Impossible 3, set for worldwide release next month.
Speaking on the program Wetten, dass ..? (loosely translated: "Wanna Bet?"), Cruise said he arrived directly from the airport but worried he would have to head right back again "because Katie could be having our baby at any minute."
In fact, he said that two pilots were at the ready to fly him home should Holmes go into labor. "If Katie calls, I'm gone." He also assured his interviewer that Katie was feeling good. As for marriage, he said they would tie the knot over the summer.
"First the baby, then the film," he was quoted as saying by the Associated Press. "Then, in summer, we want to get married. I won't let this woman get away."
Mostly Cruise discussed M:I3 and how arduous the stunts were, though as he was saying goodbye, his hosts managed to sneak in one last question about the impending arrival. Have the parents-to-be picked out a name? Yes, Tom answered, though he wouldn't reveal it.

Schoolgirls Outrun Matthew McConaughey
Matthew McConaughey
For PEOPLE's Sexiest Man Alive Matthew McConaughey, this past week has offered some cases of win some, lose some. First, the lose some. On location in Huntington, W.Va., where he is filming We Are Marshall, a drama about a 1970 plane crash that claimed the lives of nearly an entire college football team, McConaughey was jogging around the Marshall University track when two middle-school girls challenged him to a 400-meter race. Never one to resist a contest, McConaughey accepted – and was beaten by a nose.
Asked at a press conference on Saturday about the incident, McConaughey laughed: "Those little girls had very, very long legs." Now, the win some. McConaughey is better looking that the real-life character he is portraying onscreen, former Marshall football coach Jack Lengyel, according to Lengyel himself who told the Associated Press: "I've never looked like Matthew McConaughey – before or after."
To prove his argument, Lengyel admitted that he won first place in an "ugliest man on campus" contest while attending Akron University in the 1950s. As for why he would make such an admission, the retired coach said: "I've been taking so much heat on Matthew, I decided to come out with that story to counterbalance it."
Though McConaughey doesn't look the part, Lengyel said he's spoken with actor about the story behind the film, and is sure he'll do it justice.
"He has recognized that this story is symbolic of faith, commitment and determination," said Lengyel, who was hired by Marshall in March 1971, four months after the team's chartered jet crashed into a hill short of Tri-State Airport, killing 75 people, including 36 football players.
As for how he feels about the role, "It's a great honor to be stepping into the shoes of someone like Jack Lengyel," said McConaughey. "It is very inspiring."
