Renowned actress Julia Roberts has shed light on her steadfast stance against doing n^de scenes in movies, regardless of how fitting the storyline may seem.
At 56 years old, Roberts boasts a highly successful career, having starred in popular films such as Notting Hill, My Best Friend’s Wedding, and more recently, Leave The World Behind.
While it was her role in the 1990 film Pretty Woman that catapulted her to fame, a movie where she portrayed a s** worker, Roberts has notably refrained from baring it all on screen, despite the steamy scenes featured in romantic comedies like Pretty Woman.
In a candid interview with British Vogue’s screenwriter Richard Curtis, Roberts was questioned about whether she felt a ‘responsibility to other women’ given her influential status in the industry.
In response, she articulated that her decisions not to partake in certain acts are a reflection of her values and identity.
Roberts elucidated this point by referencing her career path characterized by family-friendly content, stating that her choice to abstain from n^dty or physical vulnerability in films is a personal decision she makes for herself, rather than a critique of others’ choices.
Reflecting on a deeper aspect of her persona, Roberts shared an anecdote about discovering her familial connections through the show Finding Your Roots with Dr. Henry Louis Gates.
She humorously mentioned being DNA cousins with iconic feminist Gloria Steinem, shedding light on potential influences shaping her beliefs.
Looking ahead at her professional trajectory, Roberts confessed to not being a meticulous planner, focusing instead on relishing the present moment and finding fulfillment in her work.
She expressed excitement about the ongoing journey of self-discovery and growth in her career and personal life.
As the versatile actress continues to captivate audiences with her performances, her deliberate choices in roles and on-screen portrayals underscore her commitment to authenticity and integrity in an industry often fraught with pressures and expectations.
