Julia Roberts opened up about how being famous in the present time is much more ‘cluttered’ than what it was when she was new to the industry. ‘Pretty Women’ Julia Roberts has starred in several memorable films including Runaway Bride, Pretty Woman, Notting Hill, and My Best Friend’s Wedding among others.

In a recent interview for British Vogue with her Noting Hill director Richard Curtis, the actor revealed that her decision to not do nude scenes is ‘conscious’.

Julia on representation in her career

Talking with Richard Curtis for British Vogue, Julia was questioned whether she ever thought of representation in her career. She responded that the things she choose not to do are representative of her.

“You know, not to be criticising others’ choices, but for me to not take off my clothes in a movie or be vulnerable in physical ways is a choice that I guess I make for myself. But in effect, I’m choosing not to do something as opposed to choosing to do something”, she answered.

More on acting

Julia Roberts also talked about how it is more difficult for a young actor to begin their acting journey in showbiz. She highlighted the fact that nowadays there are so many elements to being famous. This makes popularity so ‘cultured’.

“This is just my perception because I don’t know – I’m not a young person starting in show business in the 21st century – but it seems to me that it was: you meet people, you read for parts, you try to get jobs, you get a job, you try to do a good job, and from that job, you might meet some new people who might suggest you to some other people and then you might get another job and you might get paid a little bit more for that job, and it might be a little bit of a better job. It kind of just made this sort of structural sense, and now it just seems more chaotic. There’s more elements, there’s more noise, there’s more outlets, there’s more stuff,” she added.
