Katie Holmes cancels red carpet appearance

Actress Katie Holmes was set to make her first planned public appearance since filing divorce from Tom Cruise, but she cancelled it.

She was to walk the red carpet at an event for her Dizzy Feet Foundation in Los Angeles on Saturday. But her plan got cancelled, her representative was quoted as saying by femalefirst.co.uk.

Holmes had set up the organisation in 2009 with choreographer Carrie Ann Inaba and So You Think You Can Dance judges Nigel Lythgoe and Adam Shankman, following her appearance on the show in 2009.

She returned as a guest judge in 2011.

The charity raises money for youth dance education in the US.

Holmes has chosen to remain out of spotlight since she filed for divorce on June 27 from Cruise, the father of her six-year-old daughter, Suri.
