Julia Roberts is one of the most famous Hollywood actresses of all time. But few fans actually know what her middle name is.

On Tuesday, which was the Pretty Woman star's 58th birthday, followers took to social media to wish the Scorpio a good one.

And then the discussion started about how well people know the star, and what her full name is.

One person mentioned that it's 'unusual' her middle name is Fiona, which means 'white' in Scottish.

It was popularized by James Macpherson's 18th-century Ossian poems and the 19th-century Scottish writer William Sharp, who used it as a pseudonym. The name is often associated with qualities of beauty and purity due to its meaning.

Fiona is also the name of the cute female ogre from Shrek who was voiced by Cameron Diaz.

Diaz costarred with Roberts in My Best Friend's Wedding.

There is another famous Fiona out there: singer Fiona Apple, an American singer-songwriter who rose to fame in the 1990s with her deeply personal lyrics and alt-rock style.

Her debut album, Tidal, was released in 1996 and featured the Grammy Award-winning song Criminal. Apple has released four more studio albums, all of which have reached the Billboard 200's top 20. As of 2021, she has sold more than 15 million records worldwide.

Then there is also Fiona Horne, an Australian singer who is the former lead singer of electro-rock band, Def FX. She has also written several best-selling books on Modern Witchcraft.

It's hard to believe Roberts is 58 as she just looked very young in her new Lancôme holiday campaign.

The actress was wrinkle free as she wore dewy plum makeup with her highlighted hair down in soft waves.

The Oscar-winner was in a red turtleneck with slacks and a matching coat as well as long diamond chandelier earrings as she took a pink train through the snow in a clip shared on Wednesday.

This comes after the star said she would 'never' get a face lift even though she knows letting her wrinkles develop is a 'great risk' when working in Hollywood.

Still, Roberts wants to keep her face natural-looking as she feels she earned her marks from 'living and kissing.'

Lancôme marked a major milestone in 2025: nine decades of creating happiness through beauty.

'More than just a Holiday campaign, Lancôme unveils a true celebration of the brand. Prepare to immerse yourself in Lancôme's uplifting Holiday universe,' a press release read.
'The journey begins at the stroke of midnight, in Paris' historic Gare d'Orsay. Step onto the magical Lancôme Express, departing from the City of Light, where it all began in 1935, and head toward the brand's ultimate destination: happiness.'

In honor of its 90th anniversary, Lancôme unveiled a 'cinematic Holiday campaign,' bringing together the brand's radiant Global Ambassadresses: Roberts, Aya Nakamura, Ni Ni, and Isabella Rossellini.

Directed by Oscar-winner Damien Chazelle, the visionary behind the brand's latest La vie est belle films, the campaign is a 'joyful ode to wonder and togetherness,' the company shared.

Lancôme reunited with French illustrator and artist Safia Ouares. Known for her whimsical style, Ouares creates a 'dreamlike world' rendered in Lancôme's signature pink, deep black, and shimmering champagne gold.

Inspired by the golden age of travel, Lancôme introduced a limited-edition Holiday collection that 'evokes the romance of vintage journeys.'

Next year Roberts will be filming Ocean's 14.

George Clooney has confirmed that he's set to reunite with Roberts as well as Brad Pitt, Matt Damon and Don Cheadle.

Speaking to E! News, George shared: 'We just got the budget approved at Warner Bros. and we're trying to set up. It's just scheduling, so it's just setting a start date for us. Probably start in about nine or ten months, shooting.'

George, 64, can't wait to reunite with her former co-stars, revealing that they've maintained a close friendship over the years. The Hollywood veteran also revealed that he recently went for dinner with Julia and he's looking forward to working with his big-name co-stars once again.

Asked if he is excited to reunite with Brad Pitt again on the big screen, George replied: 'Yeah, Brad, Matt and Don and Julia. I had dinner last night with Julia. They're all still really dear friends. And so, the chance to work together would be fun.'
