The 36th annual Film Society of Lincoln Center Gala Tribute was held this Saturday. It was meant to be a big night for Tom Hanks. Instead, Julia Roberts walked away with the honor of making the night delectably memorable.
The Philadelphia and Forrest Gump double Oscar winner, Hanks, was presented with the new Chaplin Award. Julia Roberts was to pay a tribute to Hanks and his illustrious career. Instead, she let her potty mouth away asunder.
“It’s late, and I’m paying my babysitter overtime, and I have to pee,” a harried Roberts announced. Keeping her tribute as brief as possible, Roberts told Hanks, “So, everybody f—ing likes you.”
As she was assessing his 2004 movie The Terminal, in which he played an Eastern European trapped in Immigration at J.F.K., Roberts said, “That movie about you and the airport and the accent was a pass for me. Airport? Were you just an immigrant lost? I didn’t know. I love you, but I didn’t know … . After a brief pause, she exclaimed “and I’m wearing the same f—ing dress tonight as your publicist.”
What Roberts was wearing was a cream dress from Dolce and Gabbana.
When Hanks came to the podium, he was his ever gracious self as he addressed the black-tie crowd at the event. Hr joked that Roberts has so much clout that the big story of the evening would be: “Julia Roberts wears same dress as publicist.” He also said the Erin Brockovich Oscar winner has “the biggest potty mouth you have ever heard.”
