Julia Roberts reportedly refused to speak to a red carpet journalist whom she accused of writing negative stories about her.

The Duplicity actress snubbed Fox News reporter Roger Friedman at the premiere to her new film in New York.

"Roberts didn't hesitate to cut me dead. She was rude, downright nasty, and dismissive," he told Metro.

The star's publicist reportedly told him: "She knows you broke the embargo on her play and wrote bad things about her.

"Julia said, 'that's the man who writes bad things about me."

Roberts recently admitted that she was terrified about the prospect of returning to the red carpet.
