Julia Roberts Scores “Snow White” Evil Queen Role

Julia Roberts Scores “Snow White” Evil Queen Role

She’s very selective with her movie roles these days, and Julia Roberts has signed on to star as the Queen in the upcoming “Snow White” film.

The “Pretty Woman” babe will begin shooting the flick, based on the Brothers Grimm fable, this coming April.

Unlike the classic tale, this incarnation of “Snow White” is a more modern-edged take, with Snow White looking for a payback along with the help of her seven dwarves.


Relativity Media, the production company behind the film, has announce they’re shooting for a June 29th, 2012 release date.

Julia Roberts Really Wants Javier Bardem To Get An Oscar Nomination

 Julia Roberts Really Wants Javier Bardem To Get An Oscar Nomination

Julia Roberts thinks that her Eat, Pray, Love co-star, Javier Bardem is so deserving of an Oscar nomination for his role in Biutiful that she even hosted a special screening of the movie for a select industry crowd, according to EW.com. Roberts spoke to EW and said of the reason why she thinks that Bardem has been mostly overlooked so far this awards season;

I think the movie hasn’t gotten the exposure. You don’t know where it is. It’s like this hidden little jewel. Especially in this particular season, people don’t hunt for things. They just take what you throw in their face.

Well I think that can be said about most seasons to be honest, it’s normally the movies with the biggest ‘campaign’s’ that tend to be the ones with the most nominations. When asked if she though Bardem will be able to score a best actor nod, she said;

If there’s not hope for talent, then we’re f—ed.

I haven’t seen Biutiful, so I can’t comment on whether he’s deserving or not of a nomination. Have you seen it, what do you think?

Julia Roberts on Her Good Figure: ‘It is 97 percent genetics’

 Julia Roberts on Her Good Figure: ‘It is 97 percent genetics’

42 year-old actress Julia Roberts brings the quotes of the day:

On her constant slim figure:

“It is 97 percent genetics. Don’t let anybody tell you any crap about anything else, because that’s what it is — 97 percent genetics and three percent just get your ass moving. I should know because I’ve never met a cookie I didn’t like!”

On weight-obsessed Hollywood:

“I’m too old for that crap. It’s so silly, so pointless, and it’s motivated by a culture that for some reason finds it entertaining to perpetuate the glorification of our youth. It’s really sad and disinteresting. I mean, I know people really suffer and I just think, ‘How can they perpetuate that? It’s silly to consider it a personal triumph for myself that in almost 24 years in showbusiness — except for being pregnant — I’ve weighed within about a five to 10lb range. That seems unusual, but I’m lucky I haven’t suffered those things. I think it’s important for us to start perpetuating the healthy, happy way of looking at it as opposed to supporting the negative ideal of what a girl should ideally look like.”

… says Julia.

Do you guys agree with her thoughts?

Googling these celebs can land you in trouble!

Actress Cameron Diaz has topped software security firm McAfee's Most Dangerous Celebrity poll, which is about the most likely search terms to generate malware-ridden results, reports CBS News.

The chance of encountering an infected website or file is higher when searching for actors like Julia Roberts, and models than for politicians.

This reflects the calculation by virus writers that people are more likely to search for videos and pictures of entertainment celebrities like Jessica Biel on the Internet than their favorite Harry Reid YouTube appearance.

This year, the search results for celebrities are safer than they've been in previous years, but there are still dangers when searching online," Dave Marcus, security researcher for McAfee Labs said.
So if you want to Google the name of this Brazilian model, you should be prepared for the consequences

He also said that while consumers are getting smarter about searching online, 'cybercriminals are getting sneakier in their techniques. Now they're hiding malicious content in 'tiny' places like shortened URLs that can spread virally in social networking sites and Twitter, instead of on websites and downloads.'
So searching for Jolie's partner may land you in a whole lot of trouble.

The other celebrities who managed to be among the top ten are:
Adriana Lima (6), Jennifer Love Hewitt/Nicole Kidman (7), Tom Cruise (8), Heidi Klum/Penelope Cruz (9) and Anna Paquin (10).
