On Monday, Julia Roberts attended the Kennedy Centre Honours event in a black taffeta silk gown that gave a tongue-in-cheek tribute to her close friend George Clooney. Julia walked the red carpet in the ensemble covered in a vibrant collage of George Clooney. The photos documented his life and career, each surrounded by a gold frame - from his role as Doug Ross on ER to a famous polka-dot photoshoot for W magazine.
