Julia Roberts Was A Stutterer?

January 21, 2008

Julia Roberts

I never would have thought that such an eloquent actress of our time once had trouble speaking.

Julia Roberts has been asked by the Stuttering Foundation of America to help promote its cause because she suffered from the affliction as a child. She overcame her problem before reaching Hollywood, and the charity wants her to help others.

No word on whether Julia will team up with them, but it would be a great charity for her to get involved in.

It's funny that you claim to be a faithful reader Stephanie224 and this is the first time I've ever seen your name popped up on this site. Besides that I did not say anything negative with my comment on this. Every actress and actor at some point in their career had to practice on their speaking, dialotic and proper way to use their instrument(body/diaphrame/lungs) It is a part of their career choice. You can not go into something like that as a career and not speak properly, because you will not be taken seriously and you will not get work. Weither it be a stutter, accent, or what-ever they need to work on. So before you get all judgemental you should seriously check yourself.

So many people in that profession have to over come speech issues like accents and things so I don't see what the big deal is.
