On Wednesday, People magazine announced its pick for “World’s Most Beautiful Woman” of 2017 and ― drumroll please ― it’s Julia Roberts, who’s now earned the title a record five times.
That’s right, Roberts has been named “Most Beautiful” more times than anyone else, surpassing Jennifer Aniston and Michelle Pfeiffer. She first appeared on the issue in 1991 at the age of 23, fresh from her role in “Pretty Woman.”
“I am very flattered,” the Oscar-winning actress said of the recent accolade, later adding, “I think I’m currently peaking.”
Now, yes, Roberts is beautiful, but if we’re being honest, so is everyone else in Hollywood. We can’t help but think of a slew of other stars who could have earned the title for the first time, let alone a fifth. (Taraji P. Henson, anyone?)
People’s Editorial Director Jess Cagle explained the magazine’s choice in his editor’s letter:
"When it came time to choose a cover for the 2017 World’s Most Beautiful issue, it seemed that the time was right for Julia Roberts. At 49, Julia has never looked better. Her beauty also lies in her self-assurance and smarts and good humor. It lies in her ability to evolve while retaining the best parts of herself. It lies in her talent for creating characters and telling stories that take us to new places. And it lies in her family-first ethos: Despite all the delights, distractions and temptations of an impossibly privileged existence, nothing ignites her famous smile more than game nights with her kids."

I understand her personal hygiene leaves a *lot* to be desired.
Typical lib.
She wasn’t really beautiful when she first hit the big screen. The woman who was her body double in “Pretty Woman” was better looking. Watch her walk sometime, nothing remotely feminine about it.
She looks pretty good in that picture but she often does not photograph well.
Just about every American high school will have a couple of girls just as pretty or maybe more so.
Sounds like they didn’t even consider the hands-down favorite-—Melania Trump./s
Talk about helping her with the Airbrush!!!!

YEPpers !
For her appeal to liberals, a quote from Ben Affleck: “Or like Julia Roberts, who said, “Republican comes in the dictionary just after ‘reptile’ and just above ‘repugnant.’”
Five times no.
She looks like the Nutcracker.
GMTA. See post 20.
Sorry, I had #29 ready to post when one of my daughters came in the door, and I left it hanging while you posted first.
yep, jules doesn’t believe in deodarant. (at least when she was filming in Chicago)
Why does she have a baboon’s ass on her face?
Horse face, like JFKerry.
ugh. My MIL actually bought my kids that movie. They were in 7th and 9th grade, I think. “what? It’s a NICE STORY” she said. Stupid twit. I was so mad.
Since when are boobs more private than vaginas?
