Emma Roberts is only 18, but she’s really feeling important these days. The “Nancy Drew” actress, who happens to be Julia Roberts’ niece, recently moved into a condo in West Hollywood. She told everyone there that her name is “Sophie Wisdom” and that’s the name she has on her mailbox. She insists that everyone in the building address her as “Sophie” and when her dates arrive, the doorman calls up for “Sophie.” Neighbors are perplexed by the alias because they know who she is. Above, “Sophie” is carrying out food from Urth Caffe.

James Franco and Julia Roberts both look rather miserable in this scene they’re filming for “Eat, Pray, Love.” It looks like Julia’s character is leaving town and Franco’s character is unhappy for some reason. Her eventual love interest in the movie is Javier Bardem, and Julia says she’s looking forward to seeing him without “the Beatle haircut” he had as the deranged villain in “No Country for Old Men.”

It looks like Julia Roberts is already having fun on the set of her new movie “Eat, Pray, Love” filming in New York. Brad Pitt is producer, and the movie is about a happily married woman trying to get pregnant, who suddenly decides to take her life in another direction. She gets a divorce and embarks on an adventurous trip around the the world. Javier Bardem is costarring, NOT as her husband, so he must be part of the adventure. Sounds enticing.

Seven years and three kids later, Julia Roberts and Danny Moder still have a sense of humor. Here they are in Hawaii comparing stomachs with an inhale and an exhale. Who do you think has the best one?

JULIA ROBERTS CAN DO IT HERSELF

There’s an awful lot of Julia Roberts bashing going on, but we still like her. She and Danny are vacationing in Hawaii and in these photos, she kissed him before he went surfing on his own. Julia stayed on the beach and kept an eye on their three kids. There were no nannies in sight – we’re betting she’s a very involved mom.

WERE YOU DUPED BY DUPLICITY?

Filed Under: Clive Owen > Duplicity > Julia Roberts > Plot

We think “Duplicity” ia another example of “the emperors new clothes.” (No one wants to admit they don’t understand it.) There are may reviews praising Julia Roberts and Clive Owen and their spicy dialog, but few reviewers seem to bring up the fact that the PLOT is a convoluted mess, almost impossible to understand. It seems most reviewers are afraid to confess they couldn’t figure out what the heck is going on in this story. It’s exhausting trying to keep the flashbacks and flashforwards straight. The movie has some very appealing scenes and characters, but is it really out of line to expect a plot that a person with normal observational powers can follow? Did any readers out there really understand this film?

Julia Roberts is still holding on tight to her husband Danny Moder in spite of all those dire predictions from gossip magazines. Both are wearing sensible shoes like an old married couple as they meander to the Apple store in Santa Monica.

It’s Julia Roberts, organizing an outing in New York with some friends and her twins. It’s cute how colorful the twins are – Phinnaeus “Finn” is a vivid redhead and Hazel is platinum blonde. Did you know Julia executive produced four American Girl movies? The movies teach pre-teen girls what it was like to live in various periods of American history.

AGAINST ALL ODDS: JULIA ROBERTS AND DANNY MODER ARE STILL GOING STRONG!

Filed Under: Danny Moder > Julia Roberts > Married...With Children

Julia Roberts and Danny Moder have survived endless tabloid cover stories claiming their marriage was over. Before Brad and Angelina hooked up, Julia and Danny were the closely watched Hollywood couple who were “splitting” every few weeks. All those dire predictions were dead wrong. Julia and Danny are in Rome where she’s filming “Duplicity” and when they had a break they grabbed a scooter and gleefully toured the city.

OUR HERO JULIA ROBERTS PARKS IN A HANDICAPPED SPACE

Filed Under: Handicapped Parking > Julia Roberts

We APPLAUD Julia Roberts for parking in a handicapped space and here’s why: every fourth person in Beverly Hills seems to have a “handicapped” card in their car. Rich lazy people have bribed their doctors to give them handicapped cards so they won’t have to hunt for parking spaces or PAY for parking. (Yes, they park free everywhere.) It’s a huge SCAM – rarely do we see a genuinely needy person with crutches or a wheelchair use a handicapped space. And because there are now SO many “handicapped” people faking it – MORE and MORE spaces are set aside for them! It’s NOT fair to us, and it’s not fair to the truly disabled. Julia is disgusted with this situation so she shows her resentment by parking in the forbidden space. We’d do the same, but we can’t afford the ticket.

YOU DON'T EXPECT PROFANITIES FROM NATALIE PORTMAN

Filed Under: Cinematheque > Julia Roberts > Natalie Portman

There’s one incident from the Cinematheque tribute to Julia Roberts that you WON’T see when the show airs on AMC in December. Julia became quite friendly with Natalie Portman when they filmed Closer in 2004 and Natalie was one of the people to pay homage to her. Onstage, Natalie recalled that after their movie wrapped, she sent Julia a necklace that spelled out the word C–T. Only she USED The C Word. (The charity gala audience was thoroughly shocked.) With a chuckle, Natalie went on to say that Julia, in turn, sent HER a necklace that said ‘LITTLE C–T.” Again the crowd was aghast at the language. Natalie finished up with “By the way, since I’ll surely be bleeped – I was referring to an intimate part of the female anatomy.” We’re guessing Natalie’s whole appearance might be edited out. Our question is: Where do these women WEAR these necklaces?
