8、 are instead awarded after a poll of the American public.女星朱莉娅罗伯茨第9次获得“最受欢迎女演员奖”，可见美国大众对这位艾琳布劳克维奇扮演者的热爱非凡而又执着。朱莉娅罗伯茨曾获得过奥斯卡奖、英国电影电视艺术学院奖，并三度获得金球奖，但是没有一个奖能像这9次“最受欢迎女演员奖”一样令人难忘。十多年来，罗伯茨证明了她是美国最受欢迎的“甜心”。她在过去的四年中蝉联“最受欢迎女演员奖”。她打败了包括桑德拉布洛克、卡梅隆迪亚兹、哈利贝瑞、珍妮佛洛佩兹在内的同期著名影星。而对于克尔斯滕邓斯特等新星来说，她们只能在想象中体验一下如此受宠的感觉了。罗
