Just like Julia: Emma Roberts resembles her more famous relative in the latest issue of Foam magazine


She may be only 19, but Emma Roberts is looking more like her famous Aunt Julia every day.

With her tousled hair, wide cheekbones and slim figure, the actress resembled a younger version of the actress in a series of stunning shots for the latest issue of Foam magazine.

But Emma is also displaying her own personal sense of style

One shot shows her looking trendy in studded boots and black patterned top, while another shows her lying down, wearing a floral dress with her crimson lips parted in a sultry pout.

Emma tells the magazine that she sometimes forgets how famous her 42-year-old aunt is.

‘You go, "Oh yeah. You’re not Aunt Julia to everyone. You’re Julia Roberts." That’s crazy,’ she says.

And despite having nearly a decade of acting experience under her belt, Emma claims her family weren't always that enthusiastic on her embarking on a showbiz career.

‘Everyone tried to steer me away from acting,’ she says. ‘Finally, my mum let me go on an audition for [the movie] Blow to shut me up, and then I got the part.

'Luckily, my family has been really supportive.’

Blow turned out to be Emma's big screen debut, where she starred alongside Johnny Depp and Penelope Cruz in the 2001 movie about a drug-smuggler.

But she may have caught the acting bug at an even younger age; recalling the time when she visited Julia on the set of 2001 romantic comedy America’s Sweethearts

‘I was seven and in the background of one of the scenes, which was so much fun. It was just my aunt and me. We hung out a lot,' she told the mag.

Emma, who starred alongside Julia in ensemble comedy Valentine's Day, is the daughter of Julia’s older brother Eric, also an actor.
