They put a twenty-dollar bill in an envelope with text and wrote: “We heard that now they pay you twenty for a movie.” To which Julia Roberts replied: "Don't tell my agent, but I would agree to work with Soderbergh for twenty dollars."

Twenty dollars is too much, but in George Clooney's Confessions dangerous person She played Sam Rockwell for a rather modest fee by Hollywood standards - $ 250 thousand, like Drew Barrymore.

The highlight was the scene in Rome where I order lunch for my friends - it was incredibly nice to sit and just look at all these people who go out of their way to make a good movie. In India, I was impressed by one village in the province of Rajasthan. There, the women wear brightly colored clothes and elaborate twisted jewelry. They are so elegant and stunning in their outfits. The place I liked the most in Bali? Yes, all places in Bali are good! And by the way, I still remember how I ate fresh mangoes in the evenings. It was so great!”

Julia Roberts personal life

In the 90s, Julia Roberts became famous not only for her acting skills. Her love affairs were the object of close attention of the tabloids, and the paparazzi considered it an incredible success to watch for her in the company of a new contender for the hand and heart.

Julia Roberts now lives with her family in her own penthouse in Manhattan, New York. She does a lot of charity work, raises children and runs her own film studio, Red Om Films.

Julia Roberts is one of the brightest Hollywood actresses, was born on 10/28/1967 in Atlanta (USA).

Childhood

Julia's parents were madly in love with the theater. Actually, they met on the stage during a rehearsal of an amateur performance in the army theater. spun whirlwind romance, and since then the lovers have not parted. Soon they got married, and in total three children were born in the family, the youngest of whom was Julia.

Parents did not abandon the theater even after the birth of the kids. Although the increased costs demanded to find more stable earnings. Mom worked as a secretary from a local church, and her father worked as a salesman. AT free time he was still writing.

In childhood

A few years later they organized a small theater studio which was enjoyed by teenagers. It is noteworthy that among their students were the children of Martin Luther King. And it was he who paid the bill for medical service at the birth of Julia - the parents then had a very difficult financial situation.

Due to constant problems or for another reason, the girl's parents divorced when she was only four years old. But just a year later, the family appeared new husband mother, also directly related to the theater - critic Michael Moses. This marriage lasted almost ten years, but they can hardly be called prosperous.

During the divorce, the mother complained that Michael was constantly engaged in assault, and not only she got it, but also the children. Julia herself does not like to talk about family secrets, but her brother in an interview confirmed that his stepfather liked to drink and did not always behave adequately.

It's hard to believe, but at school, Julia not only did not consider herself a beauty, but she was also very insecure. Tall stature, a huge mouth, thin elongated limbs really made the girl an ugly duckling. But by the time she graduated from school, she had already managed to turn into a beautiful swan.

Way to the stage

Julia started working at the age of 13 to help her mother somehow make ends meet. The girl managed to get a job as a waitress at a local pizzeria, and with the money she earned, she began to buy new outfits. Then for her it was real happiness - after all, before she had to wear a lot for older sister.

When she entered college, she was surprised to notice that boys began to pay attention to her, who had not been interested in her at all before. And there she first appeared on stage to participate in a student production. The girl liked the audience's attention, and the roles worked out well for her. Therefore, after graduation, she decided to try herself in this field.

With only a couple of hundred dollars in her pocket, and in her soul the confidence that her dream would come true, Julia went to New York. There she easily passed the casting in modeling agency, and she was often engaged in shows, which allowed not only to lead a tolerable life, but also to attend paid acting classes.

The bright provincial was quickly noticed, and in 1987 she first appeared on the screen in the film Fire Brigade. The girl looked great in the frame and managed to make even a very small role noticeable. Invitations began to arrive regularly, and in a couple of years she managed to star in several more films.

Fame and fame

In 1990, she was lucky enough to get into the cast of the film "Steel Magnolias" - touching story about difficult life six women. The brilliant directorial work of Herbert Ross received several prestigious awards, and Julia herself brought fame and her first Oscar (for a supporting role).

But a year later she becomes real star. In 1991, the film "Pretty Woman" was released - almost fabulous and very beautiful story about the love of a millionaire and a street prostitute. Perhaps Julia was able to play the love for her handsome partner on the set so believably because she was actually very passionate about him.

But he had an affair with another actress, and all attempts by Julia to attract his attention outside the site ended in failure.

However, after the premiere of the film, the name Julia Roberts learned not only in the United States. The film received several Oscars at once, and the actress herself received the second prestigious award for the main role. Immediately she gets on the covers of the most prestigious glossy magazines, and at the same time in the list of the 50 most beautiful people peace.

From that moment on, she was invited to play only the main roles, with which she coped brilliantly. The dramatic film "Die Young" about the fate of a young guy with cancer, for whom Julia became the first real feeling, consolidated the success. And then another melodrama "Notting Hill" brought the girl another Oscar.

Currently, Julia Roberts remains one of the most sought-after and highly paid Hollywood actresses. Her fees reach 25 million dollars per film. In total, the filmography of the actress has more than 30 main roles, each of which is very bright and memorable. Julia is one of the few actresses in whose career there were no failed films.

Personal life

Becoming famous early, the beauty Roberts began to enjoy her fame and male attention with might and main. In the early 90s, she had a whole series of passionate romances with eminent actors, who were followed by the paparazzi with pleasure.

Until in 1993, Lyle Lovett took his beloved down the aisle, hoping that she would settle down. But it was not there, the marriage did not last even two years. Apparently, Roberts was not yet ready for a long relationship.

With Lyle Lovett

Her story was completely different with another chosen one - the famous operator Daniel Moder. Their relationship developed gradually and imperceptibly grew from friendly into a strong family.

With Daniel Moder

The divorce epidemic continues in Hollywood. In July, Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck announced their separation after ten years of marriage. Three children, friends of the couple and even a nanny, with whom the actor allegedly cheated on his wife, were involved in the scandal. Now the American magazine is OK! reports that the marriage of 47-year-old Julia Roberts, who lived with 46-year-old cameraman Danny Moder for 13 years, collapsed.

The publication claims that it was Moder who initiated this issue. It's no secret that the star of the film "Pretty Woman" has a pretty bad character, whose negative features were aggravated after Roberts lost her mother. Betty Lou Motes, 80, has died after a difficult battle with lung cancer. And a year before, the younger sister of the actress died of a drug overdose. Perhaps the reason was that Moder did not support his wife at this difficult moment, he did not even appear at his mother-in-law's funeral.

After that, according to the magazine insider, the relationship between Julia and Danny began to deteriorate rapidly, they began to move away from each other. "Danny feels that their relationship has ceased to be honest and partnership," - explains the source. In addition, Roberts tormented her husband with emotional outbursts. “Moder was terribly tired of all this and decided that he had had enough,” summed up the insider.

It cannot be said that the couple did not make attempts to save the marriage, yet they are raising three children and they have something to try for. Roberts and Moder visited a family psychologist. However, instead of constructive work, Julia preferred to throw tantrums during the sessions. "She used therapy to express her anger and frustration, and that approach can't be good for a marriage," the source said.

So far, Julia Roberts and Danny Moder have not officially announced their divorce. They say that children keep them from this - because then they will have to decide on their guardianship. In addition, the dissolution of the marriage will cost a pretty penny for the actress herself: Roberts could lose a significant part of her fortune, which is estimated at $ 225 million. In favor of the fact that the couple is now going through difficult times, is evidenced by the announcement of the sale of houses in Hawaii and Manhattan.

Also note that in the spring of this year, the Star tabloid reported that Julia Roberts was getting a divorce. True, the constant betrayal of her husband was indicated as the reason for such a serious decision. The actress, tormented by constant suspicions, checked mobile phone spouse, looking for messages and letters addressed to other women.

Julia Roberts and Danny Moder got married in 2002. Two years later, the couple had twins - daughter Hazel Patricia and son Finneas Walter. In 2007, Julia once again became a mother, giving birth to a son, Henry Daniel Moder.

2 times a day, by her own admission, Julia looks in the mirror. “In the morning and in the evening, while brushing your teeth,” the actress clarifies. - I'm not one of those who looks for new wrinkles on my face and in a panic thinks: "We should put on a mask or do something more serious." I think any mother will understand here. When children grow up, there is not much time to admire yourself, because you are plagued all the way with questions and demands: “Mom, where are my shoes?”, “Mom, help me zip up my jacket!”, “Mom, I can’t find a book!” - and stuff like that. And you need to respond immediately. In my face, children should clearly see when I am happy, when I am sad, embarrassed or in doubt. And then, after all, the face tells the story of the experience, the story of the experience. I would like the story of my physiognomy to be about this, and not about the skill of a doctor.

8 years Julia and Danny's children wear double names. True, unofficially. 12-year-old twins Hazel and Finneus are called Lakshmi and Ganesh in narrow circles, and 10-year-old Henry is called Krishna Balram. So they were called by the mentor of the ashram Hari Mandir in the Indian city of Pataudi, where in 2009 some scenes of the film "Eat, Pray, Love" were filmed. Since that time, the actress has been practicing Hinduism and regularly visits Hindu temples with her family.

1.11 m- such is the length of Julia Roberts' luxurious legs, thanks to which the actress has been fulfilling the duties of an international brand ambassador for the popular hosiery brand for the fourth year in a row. Julia wears size 41 shoes, although it would be more correct to say that she practically does not wear them: at the first opportunity she takes off her shoes, because she loves to walk barefoot. At one time, Julia stomped barefoot to the makeshift altar where Daniel was waiting for her. And last year she threw her shoes off without a second thought. high heels at the foot of the Cannes stairs. Her act then hastened to declare a silent protest against the strict dress code of the film festival. But most likely, it was just a terribly uncomfortable shoe and the decisive character of Roberts.

$12 million amounted to Julia's earnings in the period from June 1, 2016 to June 1, 2017. This allowed her to take the eighth line in the top ten highest paid actresses in the world, according to the annually published Forbes list.

$3000 cost the most cheap ticket to the American Foundation for AIDS Research (amfAR) Charity Gala held in Los Angeles on October 13th. The richer guests were happy to post even more, because this time it was Julia Roberts who was the heroine of the event, and nothing is a pity for taking a selfie in her company. The founders of the foundation presented the actress with an award for her contribution to the fight against the plague of the 20th and, alas, 21st centuries.

2 years back family life Julia had to collapse. At least, this was predicted by the media, with links to unnamed sources from the environment of the actress and her husband, cameraman Daniel Moder. The reason for everything was called the unbearable character of Roberts, who completely terrorized poor Danny. Perhaps there were some reasons for concern, but the ringing did not come from the matrimonial bedroom.

2014 and 2015years turned out to be difficult for Julia. She buried her half-sister Nancy, who, according to the official version, died from an overdose of prescription drugs (read - drugs). A year later, her 80-year-old mother died of lung cancer. To recover from losses and cope with emotions, Julia visited a psychotherapist. Perhaps it was this fact that gave reason to believe that not everything was fine in the actress's family and that she would soon cease to be called "Mrs. Moder." Nevertheless, on July 4, Julia and Danny celebrated their 15th anniversary married life. And, judging by the romantic pictures of the couple, which the paparazzi found on the coast of Croatia just a month ago, they are not going to leave.

Julia Roberts is famous not only for her bright roles in films, but also for contracts with the highest fees. For many, it remains a mystery how a girl from a simple low-income family managed to build such a dizzying career. She quickly surpassed the achievements of her older brother Eric and still remains one of the main stars of Hollywood.

Perhaps the secret lies in her explosive temperament, which has become a byword among the figures of the film industry. Julia often went ahead in business matters and in her personal life. Her heroines also differ in character with a core and the ability to withstand turmoil. Only after stepping over the forty-year milestone, the American "beauty" calmed down a bit and found harmony and family happiness. She became softer and more friendly, which only added to her charm.

prosperous the Roberts family Julie Fiona is a stretch to call. Her parents were provincial actors, but the profession did not give them a livelihood, and they made a living selling household goods.

Julia's mother, Betty Lou, was also a church secretary. When Julie was born on October 28, 1967, the family already had two children: Eric and Lisa. The girl spent all her childhood in the suburbs of Atlanta, Georgia. Financial position parents was deplorable, and she wore out clothes for her older sister and endured the ridicule of the neighboring children.

In 1971, Betty Lou and Walter divorced and started new families a couple of years later. Julie, like her brother and sister, did not find with her stepfather common language, and Eric soon left the house, deciding to become an actor. Occasionally, news came from him, and then relatives saw him in small roles in television films.

A big shock for her was the death of her father in 1977 from cancer. A few months earlier, his second wife, with whom Julie had good relations. In the early 80s, her mother divorced again, left with a small child in her arms - the girl Nancy. In an interview, the actress talks little about her childhood, mentioning only that it was not happy.

The beginning of an acting career

After receiving a high school diploma, Julie entered the University of Georgia and moved to the city of Athens. Her studies there were short-lived, as her older brother and sister convinced her that she was wasting her time. Eric and Lisa got roles in movies and TV shows and strongly suggested that Julie also become an actress.

The girl succumbed to persuasion and, leaving the university, settled with her sister in New York. She worked hard to get rid of her southern accent and took acting classes. Together with her sister, they attended auditions endlessly, but the only role Julie received was a 15-second appearance on the screen in the second-rate comedy Fire Brigade.

She was also paid small fees for shooting for clothing catalogs as a model. Being tall, for which she was teased at school, served her well.

Development assistance acting career Julia (she changed her name to add a letter at the end) was provided by her brother Eric. He already had some weight with the representatives of the film industry and persuaded the director of his film to give the role to his sister.

At the time, Julia idolized Eric, who was educated in London, at the Royal Dramatic School. His father, who believed in his son's acting future, paid for his education. One word from her older brother was enough for her to play a minor but prominent heroine in the film Red as Blood. The plot worried her a little, the main task was to start filming.

In 1987, Julia was offered the lead role in the low-budget film Mystic Pizza. The story of young girlfriends who fell in love and parted with their boyfriends was liked by the audience and earned three times more filming costs at the box office.

After completing work on the painting, Roberts retained the image of a red-haired beast for several years. The image was an actress to face and made her appearance spectacular. After contracting meningitis, she moved to Los Angeles to be treated at a clinic.

The desire to succeed forced Julia to look through information from her agent, even suffering from a severe headache. In Hollywood, she auditioned for a role in Steel Magnolias and received a promise to consider her candidacy for a role in $3,000. It was the working title of the future "Pretty Woman".

Participation in the film "Steel Magnolias" changed the attitude of the producers towards the aspiring actress. Her game was recognized as brilliant, Roberts received a nomination for the prestigious Oscar and the Golden Globe award. To yesterday's debutante, who had been vainly knocking around the thresholds of studios for several years, what was happening seemed like a miracle.

Julia was used to overcoming endless difficulties, and the sudden love of those around her plunged her into shock. However, it is easier to get used to happy twists of fate than to problems, and the actress continued to move on.

The film "Pretty Woman", released in 1990, turned her into an idol in the United States and around the world. Her partner, a well-known Hollywood intellectual, tried to characterize her role as shallow and stereotyped, but fans of the picture did not agree with him. Both actors have long been associated with the audience with their favorite tape.

After the triumph of "Pretty Woman" Roberts starred in 2-3 films annually, and her fees grew significantly with each new picture. She was constantly invited to festivals and presentations, and her photographs graced the covers of glossy magazines.

The actress miraculously united inner strength and, therefore, Julia always looks special on the screen. Spectators and critics are primarily attracted by her personality. She also makes us look forward to the release of paintings with the participation of the star.

In the future, she will be offered mainly romantic comedies and family dramas. The first serious heroine in "Steel Magnolias" - the resilient Shelby - she succeeded and reflected the essence of the actress herself.

"Steel Magnolias"

Her Shelby is diabetic, but continues to lead a full life and prepares for the wedding. The actress performed well bright role and became recognizable and in demand after her.

"Beautiful girl"

The notorious "chemistry" between Richard Gere and Julia Roberts was important factor success. Having finished shooting, the actress tried to transfer it to real life, but Gere became interested in model Cindy Crawford and married her.

Each actor involved in the film performed his role remarkably, thanks to which the romantic love story looks in one breath. The film grossed half a billion dollars worldwide, and Roberts was hailed as the premier commercial actress of the 1990s.

"Runaway Bride"

One way or another, the producers tried to repeat the success of "Pretty Woman". Many scripts were rejected, but in Runaway Bride, both Gere and Roberts agreed to participate.

The comedy about a girl who repeatedly ran away from the crown did not have the same success as their first film together. And yet, loyal fans of the on-screen couple watched it with pleasure.

"Erin Brockovich"

The role of an impulsive human rights activist without legal education interested in Julia Roberts. She saw many of her own traits in her character. It is possible that if the career of an actress in Hollywood did not work out, she would also become an activist.

Roberts' acting was so good that it earned her many awards, including an Oscar. Julia prefers to hide information about the difficulties of working on the role, but after "Erin Brockovich" she noted that emotions overwhelmed her during the filming and did not allow her to relax for a minute.

Notes about their relationship appeared in the press regularly and made the star very angry. The harassment of reporters ended after her second marriage to cameraman Danny Moder in 2002.
