Julia Roberts was born in Atlanta, Georgia to Walter and Betty Roberts. Her father was a vacuum cleaner salesman, actor, and writer, and her mother was a church secretary and actress. Her parents divorced when she was five, and her mother remarried Michael Motes. Roberts wanted to be a veterinarian as a child, but soon after graduating from Campbell High School she headed to New York to join her sister and pursue a career in acting. Once there she signed with Click modeling agency and enrolled in acting classes

Her break into show business is due in large part to the efforts of her brother, Eric, who was cast in the movie BLOOD RED. He convinced the director to let his sister join the cast. A year later her role in STEEL MAGNOLIAS made her a star. She won a Golden Globe for Best Supporting Actress for her role in the movie. Her fame was solidified the next year with the hit PRETTY WOMAN in which she portrayed a prostitute with whom the wealthy Richard Gere falls in love. She won another Golden Globe for Best Actress in a Motion Picture for that role. Since then Roberts has had a string of starring roles and recently received another Golden Globe nomination for MY BEST FRIEND'S WEDDING. She was also nominated for an Emmy Award for her guest appearance on an episode of the television show LAW & ORDER. She has a production company called Shoelace Productions and splits her time between her homes in New York, the Hollywood Hills, and a fifty acre retreat in Taos, New Mexico.

Yulia Volkova

Yulia Olegovna Volkova (born 20 February 1985) is a member of the two-girl group t.A.T.u., usually known as Julia Volkova. They are notorious for shocking the public and trying to break taboos by performing on stage in only their underwear. Volkova is known for being the "bad girl" of the group.

Yulia likes to play tennis and she can play piano and guitar. She is also a classically trained musician.

In May 2004, Volkova announced that she was pregnant with long-time boyfriend Pavel (Pasha) Sidorov's child. She gave birth to her first child, Viktoria, on September 23, 2004. Volkova split up with Sidorov in spring 2005, but didn't stay single for long - while recording a new album for t.A.T.u., she started dating Tigran - a Russian-American businessman.

The Rachel Zoe Baby Project!

I blogged about Rachel Zoe's pregnancy before it was officially announced. I know. I know. That's bad journalism--if you can ever call what I do journalism. But I was too excited at the prospect of a baby Zoe. Anyway, now I don't have to use the words "allegedly" when I'm talking about it. Here's a look at the clothes a baby girl Zoe would inherit. Lucky.

Rachel shimmers in this marvelous Marc Jacobs number. Zoe went to support her good friend in his own design. Long sleeves on a gown can easily look matronly but with the low cut top and the high middle slit keeps the dress look young and fresh. No jewelry, a black clutch, and a heels keep the look stylish.

Chanel is effortless, classic, and iconic. And Rachel is all of those things in this black garmet. Her signature blonde waves are the only bit of color in this monochormatic look. But what it lacks in color it makes up for in beautiful construction.

Emilio Pucci is known for his brilliant uses of prints. And this look on Rachel is no expcetion. The floorsweeping length is so glamorous and elgant. A clutch and bold bangle is all she needs to complete the look.

Calvin Kelin is effortless, simple, and clean lines. This jumper is exactly that. The olive green color is a nice unexpected neutral. Throw on a jacket and Rachel would look amazing in the cold winter weather and yet she reminds everyone of spring on the inside. Lovely.

I hope that Rodger and Rachel have a beautiful baby. I'm a huge fan of their show and they've been talking about having one for a long time now. Does anyone know when the next season of The Rachel Zoe Project set to premiere on Bravo? Comment below!
