Was Julia Roberts a Diva in Disneyland?

[Elonwy]

I read that Julia Roberts visited Disneyland recently and said that she wanted her group to have their own boat on the Jungle Cruise. She was denied and they loaded other guests on with her.

Apparently the skipper wasn't phased because he didn't recognize her anyway

Go Skipper!

I wouldn't recognize her. Or 99% of all the celebrities out there.

Is Julia Roberts a diva? No, she's a overpaid skank that can't act and has a bad Hollywood attitude.:lookaroun

I never understood why we as a culture are so obsessed with celebrities? They are overpaid, underworked and snobbbbbbbbbbby! :zipit:

I am not a Julia Roberts fan at all, in fact I think she is extremely overrated and borders on talentless...

However, she is a huge celebrity and extremely recognizable. Thus, I can understand why she would want her group to have their own boat on Jungle Cruise. It's not unreasonable to assume that there's a chance that her safety and privacy could be comprimised in a boat full of strangers.

On the other hand, the JC ride operators aren't obligated by any rules to fulfil her request of a private boat. I'm sure they could have done so out of courtesy, but there was no obligation. She should realize that by spending a day in DL, during the middle of summer no less, she is completely forfeiting her privacy.

Whether or not she was being a diva depends on whether she was polite while she made this request. I don't think the mere request was diva-ish, because it seems pretty reasonable given her fame.

It's hard to miss her huge nose :lol:.

I don't know she seems kind of real to me....I wouldn't recognise her ...but I audit dental claims and recently recognised her husbands claim !:ROFLOL:

Well I wouldn't necessarily call it being a Diva to request your own boat. I mean she probably had her kids and wanted them to be able to enjoy themselves without having people take pictures of them! It would seem to me she was just trying to protect her children....:shrug:

But... but... I wanted to sit in my ivory tower and be snarky towards her! I love when people who are better off than me don't get their way! You and your logical explanation...
