Biography
|
Julia was born in
Smyrna, Georgia on October 28, 1967. This sultry, well
accomplished actress is a lean 5'9" with a profound body. Skinny
like a cane, with long legs and rich curly hair, she is more
awkward than elegant. Her big gray eyes and mouth can express
the finest emotions on the screen.
Julia's mother,
Betty-Lou, is an actress and a church secretary, and her father
Walter worked as a vacuum cleaner salesman, writer and an actor.
She has a older brother Eric, and an older sister Lisa. When
Julia was four years old, her parents divorced because of
financial difficulties. Her mother Betty-Lou stayed in Smyrna
with her two daughters, while Walter moved to Atlanta and took
the older brother Eric with him. When Julia was ten years old,
her father passed away |
 |
Julia's early ambitions were
becoming a veterinarian and she had little interest in acting. After
graduating from Campbell High School in Smyrna, Julia joined her sister
Lisa and brother Eric in New York to go to theater school.

Julia manages to
catch headings of most printed publications all over the world
and photographers fervently document all the smallest details of
her private life. The size of her bust was printed all over the
world and publishers made much money on her figure. She set a
world payment record at $10 million in 1996 for the film Mary
Reilly. She is arrogant to the point that she turned down the
lead in "Shakespeare in Love", and to think that she was once
rejected for a part on All My Children.
In 1988, Julia played a pizza waitress in
"Mystic Pizza" and then she co-starred with Liam Neeson in
"Satisfaction". Things started to get hot behind the camera as
well between Julia and Liam. One year later she starred in
"Steel Magnolias" opposite her fianc└ at that time, Dylan
McDermott. In 1990, when the film "Pretty Woman" came to the
screen, it turned a talented beginner actress into superstar.
Suddenly, everybody wanted Julia, papers wrote about her every
day, the box office profits sky rocketed, and the whole world
talked about Julia. |
The last few years have been
very profitable for Julia, both in career movement and monetarily. On
Christmas Day '98, "Stepmom" was released. And, in the summer of '99,
she had two big blockbusters out in the theaters, "Notting Hill" and
"Runaway Bride" which re-united Richard Gere and Julia for the first
time since "Pretty Woman". Julia then received her first Oscar for her
part in "Erin Brockovich", a movie based on true story. "The Mexican"
with Brad Pitt opened in cinemas in March. "America's Sweethearts" just
came out in June, and just in time for Christmas, the remake of "Ocean's
Eleven" starring, amongst others, Brad Pitt & George Clooney has hit the
theaters. Its going to be a big year for Julia
Julia might hide away sometimes
to get away from the spotlight, but she always comes back, stronger and
better than ever. And, we have not seen the last of Julia Roberts yet. I
smell Academy Awards. |
