Roberts' love affair with the public
朱莉婭·羅伯茨第9次喜獲“最受歡迎女演員獎”
Actress Julia Roberts' win of her ninth People's Choice Award is a sign of the American public's remarkable and enduring love affair with the Erin Brockovich actress.

She may have an Oscar, a Bafta and three Golden Globes but nothing on Julia Roberts' mantelpiece can be as impressive as her now nine People's Choice awards.

For more than a decade Roberts has proved herself America's favourite sweetheart, winning the award for the past four consecutive years.

She has seen off competition from the likes of Sandra Bullock, Cameron Diaz, Halle Berry and Jennifer Lopez and upcoming stars like Kirsten Dunst can only imagine what such popular appeal is like.

"I am proof positive that anything is possible in your life. I am just a girl from Smyrna, Georgia who wanted to be in movies," Roberts once said and it is a sentiment that clearly touches American audiences.

But she has not been lighting up cinemas in the last 12 months, taking a series of supporting roles and cameo performances.

Roles in Confessions of a Dangerous Mind and Full Frontal have been low key but Roberts' appeal has never been tied to her box office success.

In 1991 she won the award for the first time, even though her only film of the year was the poorly-received Hook, in which she appeared as a six-inch Tinkerbell.

A year later and she repeated the success, despite not appearing in a single film during the preceding 12 months.

She has an appeal which transcends the harsh eye of the box office, achieving a level of popularity unequalled since the days of Hollywood stars of the 1940s and 1950s.

Garry Marshall, who directed Roberts in Pretty Woman and The Runaway Bride, described the actress as a blend of Audrey Hepburn, Lucille Ball and Bambi.

Perhaps it is that mix of the vulnerable, the stylish and the homespun which makes her such a fans' favourite.

The reason for her success in remaining close to the affections of the American public may lie in the very spirit of the awards themselves.

The Peoples' Choice awards do not recognise performances in individual films or productions but are instead awarded after a poll of the American public.

女星朱莉婭·羅伯茨第9次獲得“最受歡迎女演員獎”,可見美國大眾對這位艾琳·布勞克維奇扮演者的熱愛非凡而又執(zhí)著。

朱莉婭·羅伯茨曾獲得過奧斯卡獎、英國電影電視藝術(shù)學(xué)院獎,并三度獲得金球獎,但是沒有一個獎能像這9次“最受歡迎女演員獎”一樣令人難忘。

十多年來,羅伯茨證明了她是美國最受歡迎的“甜心”。她在過去的四年中蟬聯(lián)“最受歡迎女演員獎”。

她打敗了包括桑德拉·布洛克、卡梅隆·迪亞茲、哈利·貝瑞、珍妮佛·洛佩茲在內(nèi)的同期著名影星。而對于克爾斯滕·鄧斯特等新星來說,她們只能在想象中體驗一下如此受寵的感覺了。

羅伯茨曾經(jīng)說:“人的一生中什么都可能發(fā)生,我就是個鐵證。我不過是個來自喬治亞州士麥那城的普通女孩,想要拍電影而已?!睙o疑正是這種情感打動了美國觀眾。

然而在過去的一年里,她并沒有驚人之作,只是出演了一系列配角和小品。

她在《危險思想的自白》和《正面全裸》中扮演的角色很低調(diào),然而羅伯茨的吸引力從來都不取決于她的票房成績。

1991年,她第一次獲得“最受歡迎女演員獎”,盡管那年她拍的唯一一部電影《霍克船長》反響一般。她在片中飾演六英寸高的小叮當(dāng)。

一年后,她再次成功。盡管之前的12個月中她一部電影都沒有拍。

羅伯茨的魅力超越了無情的票房所具有的觀察力。20世紀(jì)四五十年代的好萊塢明星時代以來,無人能夠與她媲美。

羅伯茨出演了加里·馬歇爾執(zhí)導(dǎo)的電影《漂亮女人》和《逃跑新娘》,他說羅伯茨身上聚集了奧黛麗·赫本、露西爾·鮑爾和小鹿斑比的特點。

也許正是這種敏感、時尚和樸實的交融使她成為如此受影迷歡迎的女演員。

她之所以能夠成功地保持和美國公眾親密的感情,原因可能在于該獎項本身所提倡的精神。

“最受歡迎女演員獎”不是通過在一部電影或作品中的表演來評價一位演員的,而是由美國大眾投票決定的。
