How, how, how did this headline make it to the printer?!
A local newspaper in Jamestown, NY has become the center of conversation, and the victim of a slew of puns and memes, after running a headline about actress Julia Roberts with a typo that raised a lot of eyebrows.

Twitter user @NeilMcMahon posted an image of the Post-Journal‘s newspaper article whose headline read:
“Julia Roberts Finds Life and Her Holes Get Better With Age.”
Yeah, you read that correctly. LOLz…

The article goes on to discuss the Academy Award winner’s latest role playing “Holly Burbs” in the recently released film Ben Is Back, as well as the real-life relationship she’s formed with her costar, Lucas Hedges.
But who could get to the meat of the article when the headline has us doing a double, triple take?
It turns out the headline was in fact a typo, and a correction was tweeted out explaining that the original title was supposed to read “Julia Roberts Finds Love and Her Roles Get Better With Age.”
Ahh, that makes way more sense. But leave it to Twitter to do what it does best, and have way too much fun roasting the misprint. A few replies read:
This is why she's a movie star. My holes have only gotten worse with age.????♀️ pic.twitter.com/h3jiuEqF6P

The 51-year-old has yet to respond but honestly, we think the Internet and the correction pretty much said it all!
