Anne Hathaway chopped off her locks into an extremely short hairdo for her ‘Les Miserables’ role and now she admits that the dramatic cut makes her look similar to her gay brother Michael. Anne, who is one of the frontrunners for an Oscar at the upcoming awards event due to her performance in the film, says that when she cut off her locks and looked in the mirror she was shocked by how much she looked like her brother – she felt it was uncanny:
“When I eventually looked in the mirror I just thought I looked like my gay brother.”
Anne has previously spoken openly about her older brother, who came out and was thankfully accepted happily by the whole family, but they all decided to change religion to a faith more accepting of homosexuality because they didn’t want to support the Catholic Church if they weren’t going to accept one of their family members. Anne previously explained:
“The whole family converted to Episcopalianism after my elder brother came out. Why should I support an organization that has a limited view of my beloved brother?”
