Rumor: Julia Roberts Cannot Stand Amal Clooney

Julia apparently hates it when Amal visits the set of George’s newest movie.

Just last week it looked like everything was absolutely perfect in Hollywood when huge movie stars George Clooney and his wife Amal went out to dinner with longtime friend Julia Roberts.

George and Julia, both of whom are A+ list actors, have been working together in NYC as the leads on Jodie Foster’s newest film, Money Monster.

Julia then commented that she really liked Amal, though there have been some reports that she might not have actually passed the test. Julia, who isn’t known for faking friendships, apparently has some gripes about the relationship, though they aren’t really about Amal herself.

Star Magazine is reporting in their print edition from an insider on the set:

“George Clooney is desperately trying to act as peacemaker between Julia Roberts and his wife, Amal! Julia is fuming that Amal keeps showing up on the NYC set of ‘Money Monster’, even bringing her parents and sister, Tala, to meet the cast.

“Julia tolerated it the first time,” dishes an insider. “But Amal keeps dropping by and interrupting filming. Everything grinds to a halt and it’s driving Julia crazy!”

George heard Julia’s gripes and took the two women out to a swanky dinner to smooth over tensions. While he claims that the pair have “become good friends,” insiders say Julia is just playing nice… for now.”

Is this a case of Amal overstepping, or is Julia feeling threatened that she isn’t the center of attention? Surely there haven’t been too many sightings of Amal on the set, but maybe the constantly photographed star has been escaping the paparazzi?
