Julia Roberts is one name that I am glad isn't prominent these days because she always went overboard on various issues and make a scene out of whatever the issue may be at awards etc.
If the clip is still on YouTube these days, on one of Howard Stern's late 1990s radio show episodes, Howard was talking to his cohost Robin and appreciating the work that the director was doing in getting Howard to put some effort into trying to act when Howard's movie was being filmed. iirc Howard said he 'didn't believe there was a need to study acting, but he then realized that movie filming and acting requires a bit of a change from being a radio personality to being filmed in a movie'.
It was one of the few times where Howard respected and gave props to what it takes for actors out there to be involved in film industry. I'll have to see if I can find the clip later. Unfortunately quite a few of Howard's old stuff that was on Youtube was removed either a year or two ago.
