Julia Roberts: I Don't Wear Deodorant

Julia Roberts celebrated Earth Day with her pal Oprah on Tuesday. Appearing in a segment about green alternatives to incorporate into you life, along with her friend Sophie Uliano, author of Gorgeously Green, Julia told how she feeds her kids organic foods and composts. Then the subject of skincare, lotion and deodorant came up. But does Julia wear the organic kind? Nope! She wears none at all. "I don't actually use deodorant. I don't like to share that with a lot of people. It's just never been my thing.In a joint interview with Vanity Fair features editor Jane Sarkin and V.F. West Coast editor Krista Smith, Julia Roberts says that, at age 40, her dream is to be "a highly fulfilled and productive stay-at-home mom and wife. The highest high would be growing our food that I then make, and then composting and growing more--that kind of circle."Roberts says having her own creative outlet is important, "even if it's just silly needlework and stuff like that. To have that high-functioning fulfillment, and to have that radiate into my children so that I'm there with them, I'm connected with them, and I'm with Danny [Moder, her husband] and we're all together, and yet my motor is revving."Being a mother has made her more aware of her family's environmental impact, says Roberts, explaining that "making less garbage in every way possible" is something she's determined to accomplish. "[As a family of five,] we make a lot of garbage. This is our plight."Roberts says she isn't sure if she will publicly back a candidate in the 2008 presidential election, but admits that she is "really digging Obama. For anybody good to want this job, they must be so good. I think it just draws extremes now. It's either the so good or the so evil."
