Julia Roberts: not pretty enough
Julia Roberts has revealed she won't work on a Pretty Woman sequel because she doesn't think she would look good as an "old hooker".
She said: "Nobody wants to see an old hooker."
Disney has spent years trying to persuade Julia and her hunky co-star Richard Gere to revisit their old characters, without success.
Despite her lack of enthusiasm for the project, Julia is adamant she hasn't gone off romantic-comedy movies for good.
She added: "It's not that I'm anti romantic-comedy, which, for some reason, is always the favoured interpretation. I like being funny, I like being romantic ... but it's challenging trying to find a script which is original or interesting".
Meanwhile, Julia Roberts has advised women to strip off on Valentine's Day.
The 42-year-old actress - who has three children with her cameraman husband Daniel Moder - thinks the most romantic way to celebrate the occasion is to go out for dinner, have a drink and then "take your top off".
Julia became a relationship adviser when a woman asked for tips on how to make sure her boyfriend spoilt her on the romantic holiday.
In response, Julia quipped: "Wow. Can we at least dim the lights?
"Okay, wait a minute. How long have you been with your boyfriend? Do you have sex with him?
"You're the one that brought it up. You opened Pandora's box! Where's the problem? We can fix this!"
The woman replied: "He keeps saying I'm a bad planner."
However, Julia was convinced she had found a solution to suit both sexes perfectly.
She said: "Make a nice dinner reservation now, because that's the biggest night out of the year. Have a nice glass of wine, and take your top off! I think it's a recipe for success."

Rozlyn Papa Alleged Sex Tape -- Grand Opening
A sex tape starring "Bachelor" reject Rozlyn Papa -- allegedly -- has made it's way onto the Internet -- and it happens to end just like the "Bachelor" finale ... with someone on their knees.
The short tape -- which features a woman certainly resembling Rozlyn performing a sexual act on a sizable gentleman -- just popped up on the website Pornhub.com.
Rozlyn's rep has previously told us she has "no knowledge of any tape."
MJ Tribute Band -- The Battle Over Neverland
The Michael Jackson estate just laid the smack down on a bunch of Michael Jackson wannabes -- all over access to Neverland.
The wannabes are actually in a Michael Jackson tribute band named "Neverland" -- a name the MJ estate feels is a violation of its trademark.
Long story short -- the MJ estate wrote a scary legal letter demanding the band change its name ... and it did ... to Foreverland.
Here's the catch -- "Foreverland" still owns the rights to the domain name neverlandsf.com -- and its willing to give it back to Camp Jacko ... for a cool $30,000.
In short, the Jackson estate told the band to "beat it" -- and gave them until February 2011 to begin forwarding all web traffic to the new foreverlandsf.com ... or else.
The band tells us they're currently going over their options.
Tiger's Alleged Mistresses -- Who's on Top?
Tiger Woods may have been an equal opportunity employer -- but an online bookmaker wasn't so kind in doling out odds for the winner of Howard Stern's Golf Mistress Beauty Pageant.
Even though Stern hasn't released the list of actual competitors yet, Sportsbook.com has already listed mistress #1 Rachel Uchitel among the least likely to take home Stern's prize ... but we're guessing it's because her cardboard cutout will be participating in her place.
Meanwhile, Cori Rist and Loredana Jolie are tied as favorites to club the competition. Some other notables include Holly Sampson -- a close 3rd -- followed by Jaimee Grubbs, Joslyn James, and Jamie Jungers in 4th, 5th, and 6th.
The pageant is scheduled to go full steam ahead on March 10th -- with the contestants clawing for a $100,000 prize.

James Cameron: Sacha Baron Cohen’s Avatar Skit Sounded “Fun"
James Cameron claims he wouldn’t have been offended if Sacha Baron Cohen had poked fun at Avatar at the Oscars.
The controversial Bruno star, 38, was slated to be a presenter on the show, but was dropped because he planned to appear onstage in a blue bodysuit impersonating a female Na’vi character from Cameron’s blockbuster film.
According to reports, Cohen was going to say he was pregnant with the Best Director nominee’s love child. But producers worried the skit would upset Cameron, so a solo Ben Stiller ended up appearing on stage instead.
Asked about Cohen’s skit, Cameron, 55, told UsMagazine.com on the red carpet: “Well I heard about that. But, you know, it’s all part of the fun, isn’t it?”
Even though he lost out to his ex, Hurt Locker director Kathryn Bigelow, in the Best Director and Best Picture categories, Cameron told Us it felt “amazing” to be at the show.
“It’s just such a great celebration of movies in general and I feel like there’s a real celebration here,” he told Us. “We’re just here to have fun.”
John Travolta: I’ll Spend Rest of My Life Healing Over Son’s Death John Travolta put on a brave face when he appeared at the Academy Awards on Sunday – but the star says he’s still in mourning over the death of his son Jett last year. “We are working hard on healing, still,” Travolta, 56, told People at the Governor’s Ball after the Oscars Sunday night. “It’s going to be a lifelong project. Everybody has been so enormously supportive and I really appreciate it.” Jett was 16 when he died of a seizure at the family’s home in the Bahamas in January of 2009. Travolta’s Wild Hogs costar Tim Allen says his pal is coping well. “He is doing really well, I mean, healing as best he can,” Allen told People at the Elton John AIDS Foundation Academy Award Viewing Party. “He is pushing through a very tough situation.” On a lighter note, Travolta said his wife Kelly Preston, who stayed home and watched the show, was the one who suggested he dress in denim for the Academy Awards. “I didn’t like how my tux pants were fitting, and my wife said to me, ‘Why don’t you wear jeans?’ ” he told People. “She said, ‘You’ll be comfortable, they look good on you.’ ” Private Funeral for Marie Osmond’s Son Held in Utah Approximately 450 people attended Michael’s services. Marie, brother Donny Osmond and five of their siblings sang a hymn as part of the funeral ceremony. Michael, the fourth of Marie’s eight children, died Feb. 26 after jumping from the eighth floor of his L.A. apartment building. Michael was one of five children adopted by Marie. He previously went by his adoptive father’s last name, Blosil. Days before his death, Michael legally changed his last name to Bryan. The reason for the name change remains unknown, and there are still many unanswered questions. Autopsy results remain inconclusive as well. Michael left a suicide note for a female friend who lived in his apartment building , shortly before he jumped to his death. In the note, he admitted that the woman was his only good friend in L.A. and he was very unhappy.
The private funeral service for Marie Osmond’s 18-year-old son was held in Provo, Utah — about 35 miles south of Salt Lake City. Michael Bryan was remembered by his family and close friends as funny person who taught those around him about the importance of giving back, the Associated Press reports.
