Julia Roberts showcased her deep bond with longtime friend George Clooney at the Kennedy Center Honors event in Washington, DC, on Sunday.
Wearing a custom-designed gown by Moschino’s creative director, Jeremy Scott, the dress featured various images of Clooney throughout his career, elegantly framed in gold. The snapshots ranged from his iconic role in “ER” to the polka-dot cover for W Magazine’s December 2013 art issue.
To complete the red-carpet look, Roberts paired the dress with a cropped black blazer and silver jewelry. Earlier in the evening, at a reception hosted by President Joe Biden for the Kennedy Center honorees, Roberts appeared in a sleek black outfit with shiny lapels.
George Clooney was honored at the event for his remarkable acting career and philanthropic contributions. The two friends, Roberts and Clooney, first met on the set of the 2001 film “Ocean’s Eleven” and have maintained a close friendship since.
They recently co-starred in the 2022 romantic comedy “Ticket to Paradise,” where they play a divorced couple teaming up to disrupt their daughter’s wedding.
Known for their playful dynamic, the friends often engage in on-set banter and pranks. Clooney once revealed that Roberts saved his contact as “Batman” in her phone.
Despite their teasing, Clooney has consistently praised Roberts, describing her as an incredible mother, wife, and a great friend at the 2013 BAFTA Britannia Awards.
