ALL ABOUT EMMA ROBERTS ஐ
/next
The star spills about her signature style, favorite jeans, and love of Carly Rae Jepsen.
My style is really laid back. I live in jeans and t-shirts but I’m trying to do dresses for the summer for something different.
I love Madewell because it’s so easy and you can just put together so many different looks with all the pieces and it’s really fun to mix and match. I have a bunch of their shirts that I wear with different skirts and different jeans–I love doing that.
I love just the regular denim look–I like the ones that are just shorter. I’m not really into bootlegger or flare; I like the skinny short ones.
My favorite karaoke song right now is “Call Me Maybe.” LOVE. And anything Spice Girls to dance and sing to.
Empire State, the drama that stars Liam Hemsworth and Dwayne Johnson, has filled out its cast with Twilight Saga‘s Nikki Reed, Michael Angarano, Emma Roberts, Entourage‘s Jerry Ferrara, Paul Ben-Victor, Shenae Grimes and Greg Vrotsos. Chris Diamantopoulos already had been added. The latter marks a convergence of Moe’s, with Ben-Victor playing Moe Howard in the ABC biopic of The Three Stooges, and Diamantopoulos just played Moe in the feature film. Empire State production kicks off Tuesday in New York City and New Orleans with Dito Montiel directing an Adam Mazer script about two friends in the ’80s who pull off a heist at an armored car company. Pic’s financed by Emmett/Furla Films with Georgia Film Fund 14, and will be distributed by Lionsgate. David Hoberman, Todd Lieberman, George Furla and Randall Emmett are producing, while Norton Herrick, Stepan Martirosyan, Bill Chase and Cheetah Vision Films are exec producing.
Julia Roberts’ niece and Clint Eastwood’s daughter have teamed up for a series of stylish photoshoots with top snapper Tyler Shields.
The lensman, who is dating his model muse Francesca Eastwood, asked actress Roberts to join the couple for an edgy photo session and she agreed.
Dressed in matching black mini-dresses and wearing bright-red lipstick, the sultry stars pose with a vintage telephone on the streets of Los Angeles for the Shields shots.
Ready for a road trip? Madewell made its way through L.A. in a silver emblazoned vintage airstream trailer to promote their summer collection and to-die-for denim bar. The mobile pop-up shop had stylists on hand to outfit summer wardrobes and get you geared up for an unforgettably stylish sunny season ahead.
I stopped by Santa Monica Place this weekend to nab some neon sunnies, get my hair braided and catch up with the lovely Emma Roberts, one little lady who’s certainly been keeping up her appearances lately—(On her Met Gala ESCADA gown, “It was a total Michelle Williams Oscar moment for me,” she gushed proudly.)
The actress, who is currently working on a film called Empire State with Liam Hemsworth and just wrapped a coming of age indie called Adult World, discreetly made it through the mall without attracting any attention, save for her adorable sunglasses-adorned sweater, a favorite item from the current collection.
“I love Madewell, I think it’s so easy for everyday and just perfect for summer. Their little dresses are probably my favorite, but they have really good staples too. A polka dot top can make all the difference in a simple little outfit. It brings everything up a notch,” she declared, while posing for photos outside of the trailer.
Eagerly climbing inside to scope out the summer duds, she immediately asked, “Do you guys have swimwear?”, while trying on various pairs of plastic shades. As for her summer plans, Roberts shared, “I just want to go somewhere tropical, rent a beach house with friends and hang out. That’s all I want to do!” And the one Eagerly climbing inside to scope out the summer duds, she immediately asked, “Do you guys have swimwear?”, while trying on various pairs of plastic shades.

And the one summer trend she can’t get enough of right now? “Neon! Ohmigod, I hated it at first, but now I love it! Hence, my Brian Atwood heels,” she said with a guilty smirk, kicking up one of her bright mega-platform color-blocked heels. “I dont normally do colors, but now I’m all about it.”
The Archie comic (and subsequently the beloved 90s TV series) has been approved for a movie makeover. According to Deadline, Sony Pictures is fast tracking the negotiations for a live-action Sabrina The Teenage Witch film, with the the bewitched heroine retooled as a superhero coming to terms with her powers.
Since the most recent Sabrina — actress Melissa Joan Hart — is now a mom of two and a little past the “teenage” phase, Hollywood execs have their work cut out for them in finding a new witch for the movie. Emma Roberts, Miley Cyrus, Selena Gomez, Emma Watson, Emma Stone, AnnaSophia Robb. are the most mentioned to play Sabrina Spellman. Who do you think should play the new Sabrina?
Behind the camera, writers Andrew Barrer and Gabriel Ferrari are set to pen the script with Real Steel producers Don Murphy and Susan Montford, Archie Comics’ Jon Goldwater and screenwriter Jeff Stockwell all involved as producers.
Although Sony has kept mum about potential cast, Deadline reports that the film itself will have an edgier tone with Sabrina’s beloved black cat, Salem, transformed into a prince that’ll play into her love story.
Our April guest editor, actress and tastemaker Emma Roberts, raids the Who What Wear closet and sits down with us for an exclusive one-on-one interview about all things fashion!
Don’t be surprised if the newly reunited Chord Overstreet and Emma Roberts are the next celeb lovebirds to take their romance across the Pacific to Hawaii.
Ms. Roberts is not only dying to visit the island paradise, but…
She admits she has yet to go on a love-filled getaway. “Sadly, I’ve never had a romantic vacation,” Roberts said at last night’s Condé Nast Traveler Hot List party at the Hotel Bel Air. “I’ll have to fix that—or someone else will have to fix that!”
She said of Hawaii, “I’d love to go there with my family or, I don’t know, maybe with a hot boy.”
Get on it, Chord!
Yes, the Glee star was with Roberts at the Wolfgang Puck-catered affair in the hotel’s legendary Presidential Suite. “They arrived together and stuck close to one another all evening,” a fellow partygoer reports. “They were holding hands and kissing. He even patted her bottom once or twice.”

Cute couple alert: Emma Roberts and Glee star Chord Overstreet are back together after breaking up two months ago.
The pair, who were first linked at the Coachella Music Festival in 2011, split in January after nine months of dating, but apparently the young stars have had a change of heart.
“They are back together,” a friend of the couple reveals exclusively to E! News. “Ultimately they enjoy spending time together and they wanted to give it another shot. They make each other laugh and they are both very supportive of one another’s successes.”
Emma, 21, and Chord, 23, reunited two weeks ago and have been inseparable ever since.
This weekend they were spotting hanging out together in Venice, Calif., and on Sunday they were side-by-side at an Easter service in Beverly Hills.
The friend adds, “They are now taking things day by day and having fun. Whether it lasts, we’ll have to wait and see. They are not putting pressure on themselves to make it work.”
Is Josh Hutcherson planning to propose?
When Emma Roberts is feeling down in the dumps, it doesn’t last for long.
“If I’m having a really bad day, I always have a girlfriend — or even a guy friend — who I can call,” the actress, 21, told Us Weekly Wednesday while promoting Seventeen’s Pretty Amazing contest in NYC. “They’ll listen to me wallow for a minute and then be like, ‘OK, let’s stop. Everything’s great. Let’s figure out how to fix whatever’s bothering you.’”
“I’ve gone through times where you’re feeling low and you don’t reach out to people and you just keep wallowing in that, and I think that’s when things turn into a bigger deal than they need to be,” she explained. “I think it’s important to have people who will pull you out of that, whether it’s family or friends.”
The Scream 4 actress teamed up with Seventeen for its second annual Pretty Amazing contest, which asks young girls to share their stories of personal achievement for the chance to appear on the cover of the magazine’s October 2012 issue. The winner will also receive a $20,000 scholarship, courtesy of Neutrogena.
“It’s a cool contest because even the girls who don’t win, the fact that they took the time to sit down and think about something that’s great about themselves, I think takes a lot,” Roberts, who will help choose the winner, told Us. “A lot of people think that comes off as bragging and they want to [downplay their story]. So I think the fact that these girls are saying, ‘I did do something cool and I am good at this’ is really admirable.” (For more details on Roberts’ involvement in Seventeen’s Pretty Amazing contest click here.)
Roberts, who recently wrapped production on the dark comedy Adult World with John Cusack, will begin filming Empire State with Liam Hemsworth, 22, “in the next month or so.”
“It’s really cool — like an ’80s heist movie,” Roberts said of her new project. “I’m really excited about that. I play his love interest.”
Who needs college when you can still have spring break, right? Just ask Emma Roberts. The busy actress, who postponed her studies at New York’s Sarah Lawrence College, may be skipping the whole dorm room and midterm thing this semester but she’s still about to jet off on vacation with a gaggle of pals like so many college co-eds do mid-March.
Wonderwall caught up with Roberts on Tuesday during a sunny, patio-set luncheon at Viceroy Hotel in Santa Monica, Calif., where she was helping designer Tracy Reese and winemaker Clos du Bois celebrate the pair’s debut of a new line of designer picnic baskets called Clos du Bois Chic Picnique by Tracy Reese. She discussed her upcoming vacation, her decision to leave college, and why she’s so obsessed with fashion.
Roberts: It’s so nice! I’ve been wanting to come down by the beach this whole week, and I just haven’t had time, so I was like ‘Oh, an excuse to go? Yes, I’m there!’
ER: I’m really happy. I loved being in school and I hope that I can take classes continue [someday], but it was really hard being there all the time. I was living in a dorm, and I just missed working, so I needed more time to focus on it.
ER: Oh, that was from a movie! Everyone took it really seriously and I was like, ‘Obviously that’s not real!’
ER: No, actually! (laughs) It was for a role opposite John Cusack in a movie called “Adult World” and it was literally a one-second scene where I had that outfit on and I thought it would be funny to take a picture.
ER: It was so fun. It’s this really cool indie comedy about a girl who wants to be a poet, and she’s obsessed with this old washed-up poet played by John Cusack, and she kind of wants him to take her under his wing and mentor her. In the meantime, she works in a porn shop, so it’s a very quirky movie.
ER: I’m signed on to “Empire State” which I just attached to, which is a really cool heist movie set in the ’80s with Liam Hemsworth, so I’m excited about that. I start shooting in May.
ER: Yeah, I’ve been traveling. I’m going on vacation tomorrow. I haven’t been on vacation in forever! So that will be fun, and then I’m going to New York and then I’m coming back here. So I am going to be traveling and having some fun time, as well as work!
ER: I haven’t been on a vacation in years — I can’t remember the last time I was on vacation!
WW: Where are you going?
ER: Oh, I don’t know where I’m going! I’m just getting on a plane with my friends.
ER: We’re just gonna… (pauses) I can’t tell you where I am going because I genuinely don’t know.
ER: I am obsessed with fashion. It’s just so fun to get dressed up and do your hair and makeup and go out and feel confident and fun. It’s a way to express your personality. I love reading all the fashion magazines. My favorite thing to do at the airport is to get all the magazines, European and American, and sit on the plane and read all of them.
ER: I just want to make more movies to be honest, and then spend some time with my family and my friends. And hopefully spend some time at the beach! I really need a tan.

Emma Roberts Buys $1.4 Million Hollywood Hills Estate
While it doesn’t have a pool it does boast its own gym and media room as well as a big secluded garden.
But the Valentine’s Day star’s newfound independence doesn’t mean she’ll be throwing any wild parties there any time soon.
she told Jay Leno in a recent interview. ‘I didn’t realize how much work goes into having a house.’
‘I thought when I got my house I would have friends over all the time, but I’m so crazy about anything getting scratched or spilled, I’ve turned into a 40-year-old woman stopping people and asking them to use a coaster.
‘It’s embarrassing as my friends come round and put their feet up on the coach and I get all anxious about it.’
