“By her remarkable personality and career, Julia Roberts is an emblematic woman of her time,” said Youcef Nabi, the president of Lancôme International. “Her exceptional talent, her radiance and her strong commitments perfectly echo Lancôme’s values. We are convinced she will embody the brand in the most sublime way possible.”

Generally speaking, Youcef Nabi is counting very much that the fee that is paid to Julia Roberts will compensate with the rise of sales as it happened when advertisers from Lancôme had Clive Owen and Kate Winslet as the representatives.

The earlier representatives of the brand were Drew Barrymore, Kate Winslet, Juliette Binoche and Anne Hathaway. The executive authority of Lancôme refused to give further information about the relationship of their brand and Julia Roberts including the length of her contract, the sum of money that the actress is going to be paid for selling the products, and other specific duties that are laid on Julia Roberts.

What concerns the film career of Julia, the 41-year-old Hollywood star is going to be seen in the movie ‘Eat, Prey, Love’ that is based on the bestselling memoir written by Elizabeth Gilbert. The film director is Ryan Murphy, the other main parts take such actors as Javier Bardem, Richard Jenkins and Billy Crudup. Now the second part of the film is shooting in India.
