Those seem to be the reasons you think someone would be in a serious relationship with Tom. You are only reinforcing my feelings.
I guess I can see someone dating him for professional gain -- using him for his contacts. That seems sleazy, too.
ETA I think Katie Holmes is probably over being star struck. If she isn't, there's another reason not to really think she's great.

1. Don't be intentionally stupid. I do not know Tom Cruise or Katie Holmes. Neither do you. If they like each other, all of the things I mentioned are on top of whatever personal chemistry they are supposed to have.
2. Even if they don't have personal chemistry, people are stupid and neither one of them gets an exemption because they are rich, famous or powerful. Therefore, it shouldn't be news that Katie Holmes could be in love with the idea of being with Tom Cruise. That is a level of "star struck" beyond the initial, "Hey, that's Tom Cruise!" level you seem to be recognizing.
3. You can see someone dating for their own gain? I bet that never happens with people who aren't stars.
