"I was more nervous talking to Suri than I was talking to Katie!" Moore admits to Us Weekly in an exclusive interview. "She's so infamous! She's perfect!"

But the meeting didn't go as well as Moore had hoped. After shaking Suri's manicured hand and exclaiming "I wanna be your friend!" Tom Cruise's youngest got "terrified," Moore confides.

Too bad, Melanie is a doll. Maybe the words, "I wanna be your friend", scared Suri. Melanie is a doll.

Why the hell is this little girl treated like royalty? She's five! One thing I have never respected about Tom and Kate is allowing this little girl to act like a child and be raised as normal as possible. Melanie is a sweetheart and who wouldn't love her
