After weeks of questions about how strong her interest is in her boyfriend Tom Cruise's controversial Church of Scientology, Katie Holmes admitted to Access Hollywood at the premiere of her movie Batman Begins that she has indeed looked into Scientology, "and I really like it. ... I feel like I'm bettering myself."

Pressed about her and Tom possibly getting married, Holmes told show host Billy Bush: "You'll be the first to know." As for Cruise, on Wednesday night's Tonight Show, he again declared his love of Holmes, haltingly telling host Jay Leno, "She's ... it's great. She's lovely." He then turned and examined the couch on the set and slowly crept over to it as the audience squealed. Reprising his routine on Oprah, Cruise pounced on the furniture and struck a Rocky pose.

BUT...we can all band together to try to help the poor girl...

FreeKatie.net, a Website that proclaims itself dedicated to "the movement to liberate Katie, a young, gifted actress held captive by forces we may never understand. Even one summer of captivity is too long for one so bright!"

In an effort to perpetuate the tongue-in-cheek movement, the site is selling T-shirts, trucker hats, stickers and coffee mugs bearing the message "Free Katie."

Sheila Cameron, creator of FreeKatie.net, said she originally put up the site after watching Cruise's now infamous appearance on The Oprah Winfrey Show last month. She said she was surprised by the amount of attention it has since attracted. "We just thought it would be funny to make a few shirts and send the link around to friends. I never thought it would get the response it has," Cameron told E! Online via email.

--I just might have to get the pink tee...
