Actress Julia Roberts says she once used to believe she is prettier than Halle Berry, but now thinks it's a "godsend" that she is on the "more boyish spectrum of girls".
The "August: Osage County" star says she used to be very competitive with other actresses, but believes it was a "godsend" that she was never won accolades or titles for her appearance because it helped her to stay grounded.
"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!' But it is, you know," contactmusic.com quoted Roberts as saying.
The Oscar-winning actress, who has nine-year-old twins, Hazel and Phinneaus, and seven-year-old son Henry with husband Danny Moder, insists that her life isn't glamorous away from the spotlight and she still struggles to juggle everything.
