Julia Roberts Finally Addresses That Hairy Armpit Moment

2018-11-06 9

In 1999 Julia Roberts attended the premiere of her new film Notting Hill dressed in a sparkling red Vivienne Tam sheath and her armpits completely unshaven. This wasn't the first time anyone saw an A-list celebrity with body hair, but it certainly did trigger a vocal response.

While some reports claimed Roberts' hairy underarms were because then-boyfriend Benjamin Bratt preferred the actress au naturel, most regarded her body-hair reveal as a feminist statement.
