How much is a video of the fabulous Katie Holmes' and Tom Cruise's Baby Suri worth? Earlier reports gathered say that posed pictures similar to the ones that Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt scheduled of their daughter could fetch over $4 million according to source inside the celerity magazines.

| Tom Cruise & Katie Holmes Beware, Now Amateurs May Be Looking for Suri |
But now a web site is offering $100,000 for a "clear" video of the baby. Is this taking the issue too far? Probably - as to me it seems a bit over the top. Certainly the celeb couple and especially a three month old infant do not need to be stalked by amateurs toting video cameras.
***
Here's how the offer is presented by Break.Com.
We are giving away $100,000 to anyone who can prove, once and for all, the existence of Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes’ child, Suri. There’s a lot of hype around this M.I.A. celebrity baby, including the just-released birth certificate, but no one has laid eyes on her yet!
So, we are giving $100,000 to anyone who can give us the first, exclusive, original, clear video of baby Suri with her mom or dad! Professional papparazzis (paparazzo), photojournalists and YOU now have the same chance of making the big bucks (and getting massive exposure) through Break.com.
So grab your camera and start shooting. But, do it legally and safely. We at break.com do not solicit nor do we condone illegal or dangerous acts under any circumstances. We urge all participants in this contest to obey all laws and to avoid harm to anyone, whether to themselves, Mr. Cruise, Ms. Holmes, their child, or anyone around them.

Legally and safely seem to be the operative terms.
The contest will terminate on July 28, 2006, or may be terminated earlier by Break.com in its sole discretion, the italicized print reads from the web site.
But let's face it - if someone had that video, they would likely take it to a mainstream source and allow them to sell it to the highest bidder.

But Break.Com certainly seems to have taken the initiative, and will get some decent publicity in the process.
But really fans should remember - this is but a three month old infant.
