Roberts' first major film appearance was a memorable role as a small town waitress in Mystic Pizza in 1989, quickly followed by her Oscar-nominated performance in Steel Magnolias that same year. Roberts' breakthrough role came in 1990, with her acclaimed prostitute-with-a-heart-of-gold performance in Pretty Woman opposite Richard Gere. In the mid-90's, the actress also showed her dramatic acting chops alongside Denzel Washington in the Pelican Brief and in an equally-tense thriller, Conspiracy Theory, co-starring Mel Gibson. Offscreen, Roberts wed and divorced singer Lyle Lovett in a short-lived marriage that ended in divorce in 1995.
She later closed out the decade starring in huge box office successes - including Runaway Bride, Notting Hill (with Hugh Grant) and most notably in My Best Friend's Wedding featuring a young fledgling actress, Cameron Diaz. In 2000, Roberts followed up with a powerhouse performance in Erin Brockovich for which she was paid an astronomical $20 million and walked off with the Best Actress Oscar, and the title of Highest Paid Actress in Hollywood. Other notable appearances include co-starring alongside good friend George Clooney in Ocean's Eleven and with Julia Stiles and Kirsten Dunst in Mona Lisa Smile. In 2004, the actress appeared with Jude Law in Closer and re-teamed with the Ocean's Eleven crew in the sequel, Ocean's Twelve. Offscreen, Roberts gave birth to twins, a boy and a girl named Phinnaeus and Hazel in Los Angeles on November 28, 2004 with current husband, Danny Moder, at her side. The infants' television premiere occured when the actress shared pictures of the twins with Oprah Winfrey (screen shot, upper right) in February 2005. In 2006, Julia
Roberts turned her considerable talents to stage acting, in what
was predicted to be a ticket sell-out on Broadway with a limited
run appearance in Three
Days of Rain. Roberts was most recently heard in voiceover in two animated features, Ant Bully and Charlotte's Web and made tabloid headlines on June 18 when she gave birth to her third child - a son named Henry Daniel weighing in at 8 lbs. 8 ounces. Offscreen, Roberts is also joining the fight against AIDS in 2007 by designing for her favorite designer, Giorgio Armani, a commemorative bracelet for World AIDS Day planned as "a visible reminder of the part that we can all play in fighting AIDS in Africa." The actress, and mother of three, was also recently in the news for lecturing photographers who were apparently chasing her by car on a road near a school zone in LA. Julia Roberts co-starred with Tom Hanks in the Mike Nichol's directed political drama Charlie Wilson's War which opened in late 2007. She next stars in the drama Fireflies in the Garden with actor Willem Dafoe opening in September 2008.
