Katie Holmes thinks husband Tom Cruise is "hot" when he pilots a plane.

The former 'Dawson's Creek' actress - who married Tom in Italy in November 2006 - finds the actor's ability to fly a jumbo jet a real turn-on.

She said: "I don't give it a thought when Tom pilots a plane. He knows what he's doing. When he decides to do something he does it. It's great - it's hot!"

Although she is blissfully in love with Tom, Katie still makes time to see her girlfriends as much as she can.

The 'Batman Begins' star - who has a daughter, Suri, with Tom - thinks it is incredibly important to have strong female friendships.

She added: "I'm very aware of the pressures, especially on young women. It's so cool when you see women working together and being friends. I like having girlfriends. I went to an all-girls academy for high school and I still have friends from back then."

"There wasn't any backstabbing. The myth of mean girls is overblown. You find out your girlfriend is getting married or having a baby and you are there for her. That's powerful - that's what we as women do for the world."
