Throwing Shade
Filed under: Julia Roberts > Exclusives!
Sources tell us that Julia Roberts was nothing less than a "Major Bitch" on the red carpet during the premier of Kit Kittredge: An American Girl, Thursday in NYC.
Julia is an executive producer on the film.
It seems though that the former Pretty Woman had a major 'tude with the photographers.
She wouldn't remove her sunglasses, despite numerous request, and she wouldn't even pose by herself!
She kept posing with producer Lisa Gillian or with someone else by her side.
And, when asked for some solo shots, Roberts just walked away.
WTF?
Why camera shy all of a sudden, Julia?
Could you be hiding something????

1st!
what a snot
Maybe she didn't want to be considered the "star" and instead wanted to include everyone else and NOT make it about her.
AND 2ND MAREK!
all celebs become bitches..first? prob not
1st
I agree with jm, #4 . Doesn't mean she is being a bitch, just humble.
who cares?!!!
Re: jm – I agree. I was just about to say the same thing!
first
LEAVE HER ALONE! i dont understand why she cant have the choice to keep her sunglasses on. She doesnt owe the photogs anything , really. If she wants to wear em, let her wear em! shit!
Mean
COOOOOOOOOOOOOOCAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINNNNE
like what???
Once a bitch always a bitch
Makes it harder for photoshopping douchebags to put someone next to her that she wasn't with!
Maybe it's not really her. Maybe it's a stand-in that almost looks like her.
i kno preg rumors are ridiculous in hollywood now-a-days but check out her shirt in this pick right by her jeans…that looks like a bump…
Maybe she is sick to death of the photographers - they take pictures whenever they want and invade privacy - why should she show them respect when they (and you "Mr Celebrity") show absolutely no respect to anyone.
You get what you deserve.
maybe b/c she is a PRODUCER of the movie, NOT the star?
it wasn't about her..maybe she was trying to give other people the spot light. geez, can't someone not love the cameras and not get bitched at for it. if she showed off you would say how she was overpowering everything. i love you perez but come on…
she looks pregnant in that pic.
4th
Good for her! She doesn't owe them a thing.
first? her niece suxxxxx
sounds like the PHOTOGS were the ones being MAJOR DICKHEADS
RUDE to Jada…
ANNOYING JULIA!!!
she was prolly pissed off with them for THEIR behavior
hmmm interesting
Dont you think celebs are getting irritated with the way the paps are becoming completely invasive? I mean- when you can't get into your own car or you're followed, it's too much! Good for her for blowing you off.
Re: jm – I was thinking the same thing. She probably feels that since she's a producer she should share the limelight with other producers. Good for her.
Maybe she is fucking sick of it, Perez. STFU, you're so annoying.
Maybe what she WANTS, guys, is to be behind the scenes.
maybe she had pink eye
Man perez,celebs are people too.
Everyone has theis bad days…
FIRST!!! ok so i absolutely LOVE HER!!! Who cares if she doesnt pose for photogs?! maybe she didnt want to steal the spotlight and was being considerate! ever think of that?!
I think that is GREAT! She didn't want to steal the spotlight from those who, most likely, put more effort into the film. She wanted them to get recognition, too. She wasn't an attention hog like "The Hills" bitches. GOOD FOR HER!!!
I think you got it wrong. she's being a gentleman, stepping aside so the spotlight can shine on the others… she knows what the coverage would be if she did the solo show pony… smart producer, generous person, totally correct
eye job touch up. she had one a few years ago, and now it's time for a little more work. But why would she pick right NOW to do it?
ok so i absolutely LOVE HER!!! Who cares if she doesnt pose for photogs?! maybe she didnt want to steal the spotlight and was being considerate! ever think of that?!
Having fun always bashing real women Perez?
You're DISGUSTING!
she's one smart cookie. Knows how to piss off the paps- right perez?! WTF? You suck ass.
Perez, WTF does she have to do what the photogs say? stand alone…take off your glasses…bark like a dog…?
Get over yourselves.
Maybe because she was only a producer and it wasn't about her
O didnt know she was obligated to do whatever photogs want her too. Thanks for the useless infor Perez!
to be honest, I'm not too surprised. She kind of seems like someone who be moody and pose when they want.
Does anyone else think she had a little bit of a baby bump?? Maybe I am just imagining this?
It's called being nice. She wanted to give others some limelight and if she posed alone they would never publish the 2 shots. Duh.
I agree with JM…..perhaps she didn't want it all about her for a change. Afterall…she isn't starring in the movie. I think it was very big of her to share the spotlight!
The same s#$% was just said about Jada at the same event, correct? Maybe it was really the photogs being the asses. Hmmmm.
umm Gillian (producer) is Julia's sister…
this remind's me of the time it was raining like the dickin's and my rain gutter's were plugged up so I went out on the roof to stick a broom handle or what not down to clear them and to my surprise i stumbled upon a squirell nest full of egg's. not wanting to harm them,I took them inside and called my neighbor so he could loan me his pet anaconda to incubate them and in about six week's we had the cutest clutch of baby squirell's runnning around the house and the snake was a great mother to those squirell's. she let them nurse all the time, she would just lay there and let them suckle and she would groom them and lick them. It was the cutest thing you would ever see. well, gotta go. I have a rally to attend at the intersection of florence and normandie in los angeles because I think rodney king is about to get into some kind of trouble and I want to be there when it start's and then we will go over to my friend's house to feed his roller pidgeon's

i'm thinking she didn't want to make the walking of the red carpet about HER since she was only a producer and not in the movie. she probably wanted the best shots to be of the actual actors, which is selfless of her, i give her props:)
I think she was probable being gracious, without saying anything ('cuz you know how shoe would have burnnned up if she spoke).
She isn;t the star of the show, and I think she was doing her best to ensure they didn't focus on her. KUDOS, Julia!
I live in Taos (where she lives), and she is a major bitch! Always see her at the grocery store, and she doesn't give anyone a second of her time.
Re: kiki – i was gunna say the same thing she REALLY looks PREGO!!!!
Perhaps since she is not starring in this film, and is an executive producer, she wants to shine the light on someone else and show what a collaborative effort she felt the film was. I don't think she was being a beeotch. Maybe she was trying to be a little humble. I think it was nice.
uh, maybe she's not totally self-obsessed and wanted to share the spotlight with the other people who worked on the film as well?! Damned if you do, damned if you don't. What a stupid thing to criticize her for.
Looking at the direction she is facing, it does look like a baby bump. But looks can be deceiving. All in all, Julia has been known for not liking media attention. Who knows…maybe being photographed by herself makes her feel vain? Some celebs don't like media attention, and I think she is one of them.
I see a baby bump too.
People that were sunglasses at night and insist on being photograph with there sunglasses on are pretentious. If she didn't want to be "seen" she should of skipped the red carpet. Just say NO Julia…it's that simple. That couldn't of been the only way into the theater?
Is it just me, or do I see a little bump in her tummy - maybe she is pregnant?!
Perhaps she didn't want to pose alone because she realized this film was not about HER.
But God forbid she doesn't follow the instructions of the paparazzi, what a total bitch. I'm sure they're gonna make her life a living hell now and harass her kids and follow her around everywhere because she didn't take off her sunglasses. Oh wait, they do that anyway….
She is the producer not the star of this movie so she did not want to make it about her, Good for her for not wanting to be like Heidi or Britney or all those other stars who want it to all be about them even thou they are on the m list
maybe shes hiding another baby bump!
*Maybe she was just having a bad day. That isn't her normal demeanor, give her a break.*
The night wasn't about her…
When do you care about getting pics of other producers.
She use to be so sweet and humble. But now she is just one of those nasty stars who thinks she is above everyone. Sad, I use to be a BIG fan. Just like Russel Crowe great actor bad human being.
Uhhm…. What's wrong with that?
she is just another homewrecker.
how many kids do these stupid celebrities need…
also, she could use some botox
Who cares? I love her with or w/o her glasses.
That's her older sister, Lisa. She must also "work" for her……
She probably didn't want all the attention to be about her and wanted to share the limelight with those who worked hard to put the film together, but would otherwise be ignored.
Kudos! To Julia!
And who cares if she didn't take her sunglasses off, the paparazzi doesn't really have any authority to demand a person to do something they don't want to do. All those flashing lights… I would keep my sunglasses on too.
Sometimes Perez… you bitch about stupid shit that the old Perez would not bitch about. You getting slimy and mainstream!!! Uggh!
Julia is UGLY…I'm sure she's surrounded by BROWN NOSES who tell her she's beautiful
probably ebcause she only exec produced it and didn't want to take away from the stars of the movie
It's well known that Julia Roberts is one of the biggest bitches in H-wood. Not surprised here. Too bad for her, very few people give a shit about her anymore.
Perez, not everyone is a camera whore. Ya douche.
umm maybe she didnt wanna take attention off the other people involved in the movie.
she is obviously the biggest celeb associated with the movie and obviously all the paps will give her all the attention.
from what i heard, julia roberts is the one of the nicest actors (my bf works on the movie sets and has met her) so im sure there was some reason for her being so standoffish.
I believe that's her sis. She was in Somethin to Talk About- maybe others
That's her sister Lisa standing next to her in the pic. Maybe she didn't want to overshadow her since she, too, was a producer of the film… wild guess.
