Can We Talk About Julia Roberts' Tom Hanks Speech? W-O-W
Wow! I just read Julia Roberts' entire speech honoring Tom Hanks all thanks to 'The Sun'. What can I say? I mean - what can I say?! Why don't you read it for yourself and tell me what you think. The opening alone will blow your mind.
----
"All right, it's late and I'm paying my babysitter overtime and I have to pee, so... everybody f***ing likes you. All my bits are gone.
"Listen, I had lunch today with Rita, and her t*ts were here and her waist was here and her a** was all that. So, what can I tell you that's new?
"Tom Hanks - what the f***? Listen... Bosom Buddies, people. Me: a fan. Bosom Buddies. I saw Turner & Hooch, The Money Pit; I missed That Thing (You Do!). I love the COEN BROTHERS, but the hair, Tom - I don't even know what the f*** that movie was about.
"You in the airport with the accent; it was a pass for me. Do you love airports, or were you dissing immigrant laws? I didn't know. I love you and I didn't know what to do. Silly. God, I'm wearing the same f***ing dress tonight as your publicist.
"Listen, I've got to get home. But I must say this - Tom Hanks, I love you. You do something that two other people on the planet do - and this is true, people.
"It's so dark out there (in the auditorium), I feel like I'm in space. Thank you, whoever made it light - JJ ABRAMS, are you here?
There is more!

"But truly, people who Tom and I don't know, I was going to tell you something that is really profound and comes from the heart that I do have.
"Which is this: Tom can walk into any room and make you feel like you're in your living room, truly. Make you feel comfortable, make you feel like you have something interesting to contribute, make you feel like there's a reason you're on the planet.
"And that's a true gift. That isn't acting, and isn't, you know, dinner-party games; it's heart and it's compassion and it's soul. And he has that and only a couple of other people - that I gave birth to - have that. And also, SALLY FIELD played my mum once!
"Tom, I love you, I love you so much. I love Rita. And it's also - this is my big moment, because now I get to say, ladies and gentlemen, one of really my favourite people on planet Earth - and now I'm going to leave and go home - Mr Fabulous, MIKE NICHOLS."
Wow, she's nuts!!! I saw a clip of her on some show yelling at the paps and every other word was f*** this or that. Julia Roberts used to be my favorite actress but now I can't stand her. Get a bar of soap for that mouth!
haaaaaaaaaaaahaahaaaaaaaaaaha! bleeping hilarious. yes, I agree!!!!!
haaaaaaaaaaaahaahaaaaaaaaaaha! bleeping hilarious. yes, I agree!!!!!
The older she gets, the more I like her. So what if she swears? If it were a guy saying all this we wouldn't even bat an eyelash. Go Julia!!
Attitudes like yours are one of the reasons men don't respect women as much as they use to.......
WHAT?!

Pay no attention to the random nutjob who doesn't back up any statements.

Yes, Go Julia! She was being funny. This wasn't a TV appearance. Lighten up people! It is sexist to criticize her for something men do all the time.

You guys HAVE to watch the video of her speech on D-Listed. It was posted this morning. There's something about Julia that usually turns me off, but she was SOOO funny during this speech. Just reading excerpts of it does not give you the full effect - she actually had great comedic timing. I was shocked, in a good way - it was like she was doing a Kathy Griffin stand-up routine.
I agree. I read it on dlisted and thought, "This is awful, and she's drunk." But seeing the video instead makes her seem like she's got a wicked (and kind of fantastic) sense of humor. Kind of a great speech.

no class

classless pig. next time she has a hissy fit because the paps are invading her space with her children, someone should remind her that good parenting starts with her potty mouth.
she is being funny, if it were Sarah Silverman no one would care...she had great comedic timing and still shared her heart about Tom, what was she suppose to say " Tom I love you, bend over so I can kiss you rear" please Go Julia
yes, that's what Julia is. Typical typical Scorpio woman. When it suited her she allowed herself to be America's sweetheart. Then, she realised that she's getting old and more importantly, America's sweetheart doesn't go around sleeping with married men and then paying their wives off for a quickie divorce. So now it's all unravelling. She looks weird and spaced out and not hot anymore and like a typical narcissist, she has to unleash on someone, by G-d it can't be her fault. Oy ve!
GOOD ONE! I AGREE, AS WELL.

You have to watch it to appreciate it. When I read it, I thought; wow that sounds awful...that doesn't sound like her at all. But after watching it, it wasn't that bad...it was funny and endearing. Oh and she is still VERY HOT!
I think it was funny. :D I like her. She seems real.
For years she has gotten more and more full of herself ~ and this cinches it. She clearly has no class whatsoever. If I were Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson, I would have been hiding under the table during her rant! Get over yourself, Julia ... you're not that great.

The cussing didn't bother me as much as the fact that it was totally incoherent, just a bunch of random fragments. I was laughing but I was also shaking my head thinking, "WTH, Julia?!" Obviously she was completely pissed, which does make for great entertainment.
