Tom Cruise, Katie Holmes Boycotting Oscars Over Anne Hathaway's 'SNL' Skit?

01/10/2011

Looks like Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes may be Debbie Downers this year.

The couple is reportedly boycotting the Oscars because of a Saturday Night Live skit that co-host Anne Hathaway performed in which she spoofed the former Dawson's Creek star, according to UK's The Daily Mail.

Holmes and Cruise allegedly felt betrayed by Hathaway, whom they considered a good friend. They helped her through her breakup with Raffaello Follieri in 2008, taking her to a Tina Turner concert. "Katie feels they were really supportive at a difficult time so she feels let down that Anne took to national TV to make fun of her," a source said.

The skit in question showed Hathaway as a complex, confused, gaspy version of Holmes' Dawson's Creek character Joey Potter. The Love and Other Drugs star later defended the spoof in an interview with Access Hollywood, saying "I was a teenager when Dawson's Creek was airing, and I was a pretty avid fan, so it just sort of came from that. It wasn't really Katie Holmes; it was more Joey Potter."

The Oscars are on February 27. Hathaway will host the ceremony with James Franco. —ISHITA SINGH
