Julia Roberts has an impressive, varied resume.
Roberts' parents were both actors and they owned an acting school in Georgia.
Like her two older siblings, Roberts decided to pursue acting after she graduated high school.
“There was a woman in the bathroom who said, ‘Hey girl in stall No.
1, were you in Mystic Pizza?'”
Roberts recalled in 2018 onThe Hollywood Reporter’s “Awards Chatter” podcast.
When Roberts affirmed that she acted in the film, the surprising encounter got even weirder.
Rather than wait until Roberts was finished, the fan wanted the autograph immediately.
“She put something under the stall,” Roberts said on the podcast.
“I said, ‘um, not right now,'” Roberts concluded, laughing at the memory.
Since she became famous before the internet, Roberts noticed her career achievements in small moments.
However, by 1990, separate instances combined to boost Roberts’ career in a big way.
That year Roberts earned a Golden Globe and an Oscar nomination for her work in “Steel Magnolias.”
Then,“Pretty Woman"entered theaters and was a resounding success.
Roberts learned this news while she was onstage at the event.
She immediately met up with Santana offstage, hugged him, and invited him to accompany her back onstage.
For Roberts it took a little luck to get her acting career started after she moved to New York.
McGowan specialized in helping aspiring actors launch their careers.
The actor made the most of the opportunity.
While she was purportedly one of the lower-paid stars in the film, her earning power escalated afterward.
To break the salary barrier for female actors, Roberts candidly negotiated her “Erin Brockovich” contract.
I’m on time.
So, show me the money.
It’s OK to be authoritative about a situation.”
