Mirror Mirror actress Julia Roberts is the fairest of them all on the new cover of Vanity Fair. In the issue, Julia reflects on how fame has changed for young actors and shares that her own children have no clue that she is, in fact, famous.

Julia is the mother of three children, twins Hazel and Finn, 7, and Henry, 4. The busy mom makes time to spend with her family, but can't always avoid the spotlight when she's with them. Still, her children have no concept of who Julia Roberts is.
Julia recalls a time to Vanity Fair of being “on a crowded street, and somebody noticed me, and then another person noticed. Somebody said as we were walking past, ‘Oh, that’s Julia Roberts.’ We all just kind of kept going, and then Finn said, ‘Yeah, my mom’s Julia Robinson.’"
So cute!
"That’s what gives you perspective," she explains. "It could be Robinson, it could be Johnson, because it has nothing to do with me as a person.”

While her children still haven't caught on to the idea of fame, it doesn't sound like Julia will be encouraging them to get into the business.
“The business is so different; you can never be that new girl that has that moment of ‘Where’d she come from?’” she says. “There’s the express elevator and there’s rehab."
"It’s so awful; nobody gets a fair trial-and-error period that everybody deserves and everybody needs.”
