Katie Holmes is the new Audrey Hepburn: Diane Keaton

In a recent interview, the ‘Annie Hall’ star insisted that the 29-year-old Holmes has the grace and charisma to become the world's next great humanitarian icon.

"It's just so beautiful to watch a girl become a young woman. I tell you, I think it's a miracle,” Contactmusic quoted Keaton, as telling Parade.com.

“I remember how I was at that age and how my obsession was to be Audrey Hepburn, my idol.

"Now Katie has the candle. She's more adventurous than I am. Being the wife of Tom Cruise, she's been thrown into a world you can't really be prepared for, yet Katie handles it with grace.

 "Like Audrey Hepburn, she's like celebrity royalty. She has a calm centre in the storm of whatever is going on around her,” she added. (ANI)
