Julia Roberts Reveals She Was Jealous Of Halle Berry For Being Prettier

Julia Roberts has revealed in the September issue of InStyle magazine that she’s been jealous of Halle Berry, who always seemed to win ‘the hottest’ or ‘prettiest’ polls in Hollywood.

The Oscar-winning actress admitted that she wanted to top the charts for having the sexiest bikini body.

But now, the 46-year-old says she’s come to terms with it. Julia says,

“I think I’ve always sort of been on the more boyish spectrum of girls. For example, I’ve never been chosen as ‘one of the top-five hottest actresses in a bikini.’ And honestly, it’s a godsend. When I was younger, I’d think, “Oh, I’m the prettiest one. It’s not  Halle Berry . It’s not!”

Pastor Adeboye Narrates How He Was Almost Seduced By A Female Stalker

The General Overseer of Redeemed Christian Church of God Pastor Enoch Adejare Adeboye has narrated how a high profile woman who was an executive of the West African Examinations Council, WAEC, did everything to seduce him.

He told the story during his sermon at the ongoing 62nd annual convention of the Redeemed Christian Church of God in order to encourage attendees to always depend on God.

Pastor Adeboye said that the woman came to him and announced to him that God had told her that he would be her husband, and immediately he rebuked her, saying, “you know that I am happily married and have children.”

That didn’t deter the woman who continued to pester him, and even came to the camp to threaten him, saying “if you stand on my way to marrying this man, I will kill you.”
