The Actor Did Not Win Her

Academy Award By Being Graceful.


Before firmly affixing herself as Hollywood royalty with her "Best Actress" Academy Award win for her performance in 2000's "Erin Brockovich", Julia Roberts was a rom-com queen, with her megawatt smile sparkling in 90s hits such as “Pretty Woman” and “Runaway Bride.”


...and the 1997 flick “My Best Friend’s Wedding”. In the film, Roberts played Jules, a prominent Chicago restaurant reviewer whose best friend (and lover?) from college is marrying his seemingly perfect fiancé Kimberly, played by Cameron Diaz, just months short of the deadline of their pact to marry each other if they were both still single when they turned 28.


In the film, upon meeting Jules, Kimberly asks her to be her Maid Of Honor. The very next scene has Jules in a fitting for her Maid Of Honor dress. We have an exclusive out-take from the scene- something that was filmed but did not make the final cut. And for good reason- Roberts stumbled, ripped her dress, and took a hard tumble! Check out the video:
