In a recent appearance on the iconic show, 'Watch What Happens Live', Julia Roberts opened up about the wildest rumors she's encountered during her long career in the spotlight.But here's where it gets controversial...
Roberts, a seasoned actress and tabloid veteran, revealed that being accused of being late to work hit a raw nerve. She explained, "Maybe being a drug addict or maybe being late to work, which I have never been. That was more upsetting than being accused of being a drug addict, honestly, because it goes against my moral compass."And this is the part most people miss...
While drug addiction is a serious issue, Roberts felt the late-to-work rumor was more damaging to her character. She emphasized her punctuality and how it aligns with her values. So, which is worse: being labeled a drug addict or being known for tardiness?
During the interview, Roberts also addressed her relationship with cannabis, clarifying that she's not a regular user. She shared a funny story about trying it once with a friend who was an expert smoker, but the experience left her feeling confused and uncomfortable. Roberts prefers her cocktails, often opting for a glass of red wine or a vodka soda.
The actress appeared on the show to promote her new movie, 'After the Hunt', which also stars the talented Ayo Edebiri. But the conversation soon turned to Roberts' beloved 'Real Housewives' franchise. Here's a thought-provoking question for you: Is Roberts' take on the Housewives accurate, or does she miss the mark?
Roberts weighed in on Lisa Barlow's attempt to clear her name regarding past legal issues, saying, "If you gotta ring the bell that hard, you’re guilty." She also believed Julia Lemigova's claim about her relationship with Adriana de Moura, stating, "One million percent, yes."
