Hollywood star Julia Roberts plans to update her rider in 2026, inspired by George Clooney’s latest movie “Jay Kelly.” In the film, Clooney portrays an actor who unexpectedly receives cheesecake in his rider, a situation Roberts relates to as she is constantly surrounded by almonds at events, despite not being a huge fan of them. Roberts has decided to remove almonds from her rider after watching the movie, expressing her intention to review and reset all rider requests concerning her.
Roberts shared her amusement at the abundance of raw almonds present everywhere she goes, prompting her to take action. She humorously mentioned that she enjoys almonds but not in large quantities, leading her to request their removal from her rider. Clooney, who also had a similar experience with apples, recounted a funny incident where he unknowingly ended up with Fuji apples in his rider, causing inconvenience and leading him to remove the item.
Clooney highlighted the unintentional nature of such rider requests, mentioning how preferences can end up in riders without actors’ explicit knowledge. He emphasized the absurdity of extreme demands, contrasting it with his humble upbringing in Kentucky. The actors’ experiences shed light on the quirky world of rider requests in the entertainment industry, prompting them to reevaluate and adjust their preferences for a more practical approach.
