<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The 56-year-old actress told the outlet that things she chooses &#8220;</span><span style="font-weight: 400;">not to do&#8221; in her professional life are what represent her, noting never doing nudity in movies.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">&#8220;Not to be criticizing others&#8217; choices, but for me to not take off my clothes in a movie or be vulnerable in physical ways is a choice that I guess I make for myself,&#8221; Roberts said. &#8220;But in effect, I&#8217;m choosing not to do something as opposed to choosing to do something.&#8221;</span></p>

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The &#8220;Pretty Woman&#8221; star also talked about how much the movie industry has changed since she started out in Hollywood.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">&#8220;Oh, it&#8217;s completely different from my time,&#8221; Roberts said. &#8220;I mean, that&#8217;s when I really feel like a dinosaur, when you just look at the structure of the business. It&#8217;s completely different.&#8221;</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">&#8220;I don&#8217;t know if it&#8217;s better, because it&#8217;s not my experience, but it just seems very different,&#8221; she added. &#8220;And in a way, it seems so cluttered.&#8221;</span></p>

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">&#8220;There are so many elements to being famous now, it just seems exhausting,&#8221; Roberts continued. &#8220;</span><span style="font-weight: 400;">It kind of just made this sort of structural sense, and now it just seems more chaotic. There&#8217;s more elements, there&#8217;s more noise, there&#8217;s more outlets, there&#8217;s more stuff.&#8221;</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">In 2007, Roberts talked about not doing &#8220;nudity in films&#8221; and told <a href="https://www.digitalspy.com/showbiz/a81987/roberts-refuses-to-go-nude-in-movies/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">OK!

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Roberts who married cinematographer Daniel Moder in 2002, became a mom in 2004 when the couple welcomed twins, Phinnaeus and Hazel, and again in 2007 with a son named Henry.</span></p>

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">&#8220;You know it&#8217;s not really what I do, so if you are going to ask me to do it, you have to expect it to be toned down,&#8221; the actress said. &#8220;You know, as a mom of three, I feel like that.&#8221;</span></p>

<p>During the 56-year-old actress&#8217; interview on SiriusXM&#8217;s &#8220;<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6IIbNvhY1ao" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Jess Cagle Show</a>,&#8221; Roberts discussed her newfound &#8220;respect&#8221; for Mahomes after watching the Netflix docuseries &#8220;Quarterback.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m watching a lot of documentary things,&#8221; Roberts said. &#8220;I mean, I love documentaries, but I watched this documentary series, &#8216;Quarterback.&#8217; It has changed my life, I think. Because I&#8217;m a big football fan.&#8221;</p>

<p>&#8220;But this has given me an insight, like I have so much respect right now for Patrick Mahomes, I don&#8217;t know what to do with it,&#8221; she added. &#8220;There&#8217;s really not a place for me to put it on a daily basis.&#8221;</p>

<p>&#8220;The quarterback, you think like, &#8216;Oh, he shows up and throws the ball around.&#8217; I mean, that&#8217;s what I thought. That&#8217;s wrong,&#8221; Roberts continued. &#8220;I felt a kinship because I feel like my homework when I&#8217;m working it never ends. There&#8217;s always some other elements, some other thing to learn, to figure out, to get ready for to, you know, whatever it is, and so I kind of felt like I understand you, Patrick Mahomes.&#8221;</p>
<p>The &#8220;Pretty Woman&#8221; star admitted she&#8217;s first and foremost a San Francisco 49ers fan, but said the Chiefs are right behind them.</p>
<p>The eight-episode docuseries from NFL Films highlights what went on behind the scenes during the 2022 season for three NFL quarterbacks: Mahomes, Minnesota Vikings&#8217; Kirk Cousins, and the then-Atlanta Falcons QB Marcus Mariota.</p>
<p>&#8220;Look — we&#8217;ve seen quarterbacks mic&#8217;d up for a game. We&#8217;ve certainly seen training camp,&#8221; Hall of Fame quarterback and &#8216;Quarterback&#8217; Executive Producer Peyton Manning told Netflix. &#8220;But we’ve never followed a quarterback throughout the entire season to see what he does Sunday night after a big win, after a brutal loss on a last-second field goal — what they do on Mondays and Tuesdays on their off days.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Are they hanging out? Are they playing golf? Are they in the weight room and watching film and grinding for that next game?&#8221; he added. &#8220;Which is the answer, by the way, not to give it away. There is no golf in the season.&#8221;</p>

<p>Hollywood star Molly Ringwald explained recently why she turned down the lead role of the 1990s hit &#8220;Pretty Woman&#8221; that ultimately went to superstar Julia Roberts and said there was &#8220;something icky about it.&#8221;</p>
<p>During an interview with <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2023/apr/24/i-was-projected-as-the-sweet-american-girl-next-door-it-wasnt-me-molly-ringwald-bites-back">The Guardian</a>, the 55-year-old actress talked about the early days of her career in the 80s — marked by appearances in such coming-of-age movies like &#8220;Sixteen Candles,&#8221; &#8220;Pretty In Pink,&#8221; and &#8220;The Breakfast Club.&#8221; Ringwald said she had wanted to take on &#8220;darker roles&#8221; but found it challenging.</p>
<p>&#8220;I didn&#8217;t really feel like darker roles were available to me,&#8221; the actress said. &#8220;The ones that I wanted to do, I didn&#8217;t get. I was too young for certain roles. I was at this weird in-between stage.&#8221;</p>

<p><script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p>
<p>The &#8220;Pick Up Artist&#8221; star said one such role she turned down was that of Vivian Ward in the movie starring Roberts and Richard Gere.</p>
<p>&#8220;Julia Roberts was wonderful in it, but I didn&#8217;t really like the story,&#8221; Ringwald explained. &#8220;Even then, I felt like there was something icky about it.&#8221;</p>
<p>Another movie she said she got turned down for was the lead role in Mike Nichols&#8217; &#8220;Working Girl&#8221; which ended up going to Melanie Griffith, who was about ten years older.  The movie is about a young girl trying to get out of the secretary ring and climb the corporate ladder.</p>
<p>&#8220;&#8216;She really needs to be at that moment where you feel the pain,'&#8221; Ringwald recalled the director telling her. &#8216;&#8221;You have your whole life ahead of you – nobody&#8217;s going to believe that of you.'&#8221;</p>
<p>At one point, the actress admitted she was just never really comfortable with the fame she found early in her career and admitted others are better at dealing with living in the spotlight.</p>
<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s hard to grow up under that,&#8221; Ringwald said. &#8220;I don&#8217;t want to overdo this – and boohoo, I fully recognize my privilege – but I needed to get out from under all that scrutiny. I just wasn&#8217;t cut out for it in a way that certain other people are. Some people are really good at it. Taylor Swift is amazing! But I didn&#8217;t feel comfortable with that level of stardom.&#8221;</p>

<p>&#8220;America&#8217;s Sweetheart&#8221; actress <a href="https://dailywire.com/news/hollywood-a-lister-says-mlk-actually-paid-her-moms-hospital-bill-when-she-was-born/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Julia Roberts</a> learned she might not actually be a Roberts during a wild revelation on Ancestry&#8217;s &#8220;Finding Your Roots.&#8221;</p>
<p>According to a DNA test and extensive research into <a href="http://www.dailywire.com/topic/julia-roberts/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Roberts&#8217;</a> family tree, historian Dr. Henry Louis Gates Jr. explained to Roberts that the man she had always believed to be her great-great-grandfather — Willis Roberts — had actually passed away more than ten years before her great-great-grandmother Rhoda Suttle Roberts gave birth to the son who would become her great grandfather.</p>

<p><iframe loading="lazy" title="Julia Roberts Isn’t ACTUALLY Julia “Roberts”?? | Finding Your Roots | Ancestry®" width="500" height="281" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/8sXCRjTtHNU?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen></iframe></p>
<p>&#8220;Digging into Georgia’s County archives, we discovered that sometime in the 1850s, Rhoda married a man named Willis Roberts,&#8221; Gates explained. &#8220;Julia carries Willis’ last name, but Willis passed away in 1864, over a decade before Rhoda gave birth to Julia’s great-grandfather, John, leading to an inescapable conclusion.&#8221;</p>
<p>Gates added that while Rhoda kept her married name and gave it to her son — John Pendleton Roberts — Willis Roberts could not have been the father. &#8220;Julia, Willis Roberts could not possibly be your great-great-grandfather, he was dead.&#8221;</p>
<p>The &#8220;Pretty Woman&#8221; star was visibly taken aback by the revelation, responding, &#8220;But — wait — but am I not a Roberts?&#8221;</p>
<p>Gates went on to say that there were no records anywhere that shed light on who might actually have been John&#8217;s father, leaving them no recourse but DNA to trace her family history further.</p>
<p>A search cross-referencing Roberts&#8217; DNA and the DNA of one of her father&#8217;s first cousins against a publicly available database was what finally gave them a clue: they found &#8220;a cluster of matches&#8221; that ultimately linked Roberts and her father&#8217;s cousin through just one man: Henry McDonald Mitchell Jr.</p>
<p>&#8220;So we&#8217;re Mitchells?&#8221; Roberts asked, laughing.</p>
<p>&#8220;You&#8217;re Julia Mitchell,&#8221; Gates nodded. &#8220;You are not a Roberts biologically.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;I bet nobody knew,&#8221; Roberts replied.</p>
<p>&#8220;Well, everybody near that farm knew,&#8221; Gates pressed, adding, &#8220;Because her husband wasn&#8217;t there and she was still having babies.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Wow,&#8221; from Roberts. &#8220;Is my head on straight still? Am I facing you?&#8221;</p>
<p>Gates went on to explain why Roberts&#8217; great-great-grandmother might have chosen not to tell anyone who John&#8217;s birth father was, noting that historian records indicated that Mitchell was married — with children of his own — when John was born.</p>
<p>&#8220;Truly my mind is blown,&#8221; Roberts responded. &#8220;It is fascinating and, on the other hand, there’s, you know, part of me that, you know, that when I’m calmer, you know, can still wrap my arms around the idea that my family is my family.&#8221;</p>

‘Am I Not A Roberts?’: Actress Julia Roberts Blind-Sided By Wild DNA Reveal

Actress Julia Roberts Blind-Sided By Wild DNA Reveal

History

<p>Actress <a href="http://www.dailywire.com/topic/julia-roberts/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Julia Roberts</a> revealed in a recent interview that Civil Rights icon Martin Luther King Jr. had paid her mother&#8217;s hospital bill after she was born.</p>
<p><a href="https://dailywire.com/news/i-was-broken-matthew-perry-reveals-the-reason-he-dumped-julia-roberts/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Roberts</a> sat down with &#8220;CBS Mornings&#8221; host <a href="http://www.dailywire.com/topic/gayle-king/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Gayle King</a> in late September, and during the wide-ranging conversation, the &#8220;Erin Brockovich&#8221; actress explained the connection between her parents — who ran a theater school in Atlanta — and MLK and his wife, Coretta Scott King.</p>

<p><script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p>
<p>&#8220;Let&#8217;s start with the day you were born,&#8221; King said, asking, &#8220;Who paid for the hospital bill?&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Okay, her research is very good,&#8221; Roberts said, flashing a smile and prompting King to interrupt: &#8220;We&#8217;re professionals.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;This is &#8230; ah, the King family paid for my hospital bill,&#8221; Roberts continued.</p>
<p>&#8220;Not my family,&#8221; King laughed.</p>
<p>&#8220;Not your family —&#8221; Roberts agreed.</p>
<p>&#8220;Martin Luther King Jr. —&#8221; King prompted.</p>
<p>&#8220;And Coretta,&#8221; Roberts said.</p>
<p>&#8220;How did that come about?&#8221; King asked, turning to the audience and adding, &#8220;Did you guys know that about Julia Roberts? &#8230; That&#8217;s what I said! Martin Luther King Jr. and Coretta Scott King &#8230; why did they do that?&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Obviously because my parents couldn&#8217;t pay for the hospital bill,&#8221; Roberts began, adding, &#8220;My parents had a theater school in Atlanta called The Actors and Writers Workshop.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;One day Coretta Scott King called my mother and asked if her kids could be part of the school because they were having a hard time finding a place that would accept her kids,&#8221; Roberts said, noting that at the time, segregation made it difficult for black students to find theater schools that would accept them — especially if there were also white students at the same school.</p>
<p>&#8220;My mom was like, &#8216;Sure, come on over,'&#8221; Roberts continued. &#8220;And so they just all became friends, and they helped us out of a jam.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Yeah, because in the 60s you didn&#8217;t have little black children interacting with little white kids in acting school and your parents were like, &#8216;Come on in,'&#8221; King replied. &#8220;I think that&#8217;s extraordinary.&#8221;</p>
<p>Roberts, who just celebrated her 55th birthday on Friday, has recently been out promoting her latest film alongside actor <a href="http://www.dailywire.com/topic/george-clooney/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">George Clooney</a>: &#8220;Ticket to Paradise.&#8221;</p>

Hollywood A-Lister Says MLK Actually Paid Her Mom’s Hospital Bill When She Was Born

Actress Julia Roberts Says MLK Actually Paid Her Mom's Hospital Bill When She Was Born

Martin Luther King Jr.

<p>Over 20 years after their relationship ended, &#8220;Friends&#8221; star <a href="https://dailywire.com/news/there-is-a-hell-matthew-perry-says-hes-been-there-admits-he-spent-nearly-10-million-to-get-sober/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Matthew Perry</a> revealed why he broke it off with &#8220;Pretty Woman&#8221; star <a href="https://dailywire.com/news/julia-roberts-reveals-the-key-to-a-long-happy-marriage/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Julia Roberts</a> — after just two months — all those years earlier.</p>
<p>Perry, 53, <a href="https://pagesix.com/2022/10/24/matthew-perry-reveals-why-he-broke-up-with-julia-roberts/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">addressed the topic</a> in his soon-to-be-released memoir titled &#8220;Friends, Lovers, and the Big Terrible Thing&#8221; — which hits shelves on November 1 — and revealed that his own insecurities had been the driving force that caused him to put an end to the relationship.</p>
<p>The &#8220;Whole Nine Yards&#8221; star said that despite the fact that he was starring in a hugely popular sitcom at the time, he still felt like Roberts was &#8220;slumming&#8221; when she chose to go out with him. &#8220;Dating Julia Roberts had been too much for me. I had been constantly certain that she was going to break up with me,&#8221; he said.</p>
<p>&#8220;Why would she not? I was not enough; I could never be enough; I was broken, bent, unlovable. So instead of facing the inevitable agony of losing her, I broke up with the beautiful and brilliant Julia Roberts,&#8221; Perry continued, adding that he couldn&#8217;t &#8220;begin to describe the look of confusion on her face&#8221; when he called it quits.</p>
<p>The actor, who struggled for decades with the substance abuse problems that almost killed him, said that he was always afraid when he was in relationships — he never knew who really valued him and who might only be dating him because of his money and fame.</p>
<p>&#8220;That was me afraid,&#8221; Perry told <a href="https://people.com/tv/matthew-perry-looks-forward-to-being-a-husband-and-father/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">PEOPLE Magazine</a>, explaining that he was almost always the one to end relationships. &#8220;That is what I manifest, something that&#8217;s wrong with them. And then I break up with them &#8230; But there can&#8217;t be something wrong with everyone. I&#8217;m the common denominator. I left first because I thought they were going to annihilate me.&#8221;</p>
<p>The &#8220;Friends&#8221; star, now 18-months sober, said that he has overcome the fear and is looking forward to possibly having a family.</p>
<p>&#8220;I’m not afraid of love anymore, so the next girl I go out with better watch out,&#8221; adding that he&#8217;s confident he could be a good father. &#8220;I grew up with a lot of little kids around me, and that’s probably why, but I can’t wait.&#8221;</p>

News</a>, she talked about her secret to a happy marriage to Moder, with whom she shares three children.</p>
<p>&#8220;I always say that same thing and I&#8217;m sticking with it,&#8221; Roberts shared while promoting the film. &#8220;It&#8217;s making out. Lots of making out.&#8221;</p>

<p>Roberts recently celebrated being a homemaker with the black dress she wore at her first romantic comedy premiere in 20 years in London. The actress hit the premiere of her and Clooney&#8217;s new film wearing a black tuxedo jacket with a floor-length black dress that contained embroidered graffiti messages of &#8220;hope,&#8221; &#8220;love,&#8221; and &#8220;darling&#8221; all over it.</p>
<p>In addition, her dress had the initials of her children&#8217;s names, Hazel, Phinnaeus, and Henry, along with their birth years embroidered throughout.

<p>&#8220;Here&#8217;s the thing: If I&#8217;d thought something was good enough, I would have done it,&#8221; Roberts shared. &#8220;But I also had three kids in the last 18 years. That raises the bar even more because then it&#8217;s not only, &#8216;Is this material good?’”</p>
<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s also the math equation of my husband&#8217;s work schedule and the kids&#8217; school schedule and summer vacation,&#8221; she aded. &#8220;It&#8217;s not just, &#8216;Oh, I think I want to do this.&#8217; I have a sense of great pride in being home with my family and considering myself a homemaker.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;As they get older, and particularly with my daughter, I do have a sense of responsibility for showing my children that I can be creative and that it&#8217;s meaningful to me — so meaningful that for periods of time I will choose to focus on that almost more than my family, which has been hard for me to come to terms with,&#8221; Roberts continued.</p>
