Julia Roberts has once again teamed up with Bono in his charity campaign to fight the AIDS epidemic in Africa.
Roberts has been called upon by the U2 star and Italian fashion designer Giorgio Armani for the second time, designing a T-shirt to be sold under the pair’s Red label project.
The team partnered up for the design, featuring the words “revolution.evolution.devotion” over the treetop of a symbolic drawing by the actress – an acronym for Red, which aims to raise money for the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria.
Money raised from events and product sales tied to the label have raised more than $110 million since it began in 2006, according to a statement from Armani.
Roberts’ T-shirt design – featuring her signature inside – is scheduled to go on sale later this month.

Tuesday evening was a night on the town for Julia Roberts – that town being Venice, Calif., near her home.
The star, 40 and fabulous-looking, caught up with some girlfriends for a dinner at Hal’s Bar & Grill, in the trendy canal section of the beach city.
Roberts was all smiles as she arrived – relatively unnoticed – and settled into a front corner table that ended up accommodating five other women.
In all, the dinner party lasted two hours. Roberts appeared eager to catch up with everyone there and her distinctive laugh could be frequently heard.
And, ever the gracious star, she even let the paparazzi take a few shots of her before she hopped into her hybrid car, waved goodbye to her friends and drove away.

Brad Pitt has turned to his The Mexican co-star Julia Roberts for advice on raising twins.
The movie hunk is set to become a father again when partner Angelina Jolie delivers twins in France, and reports suggest he has reached out to the Pretty Woman star for some expert advice.
A source tells America’s the Globe, “Brad was all frantic about knowing if the rules for twins are different than raising or taking care of single babies. But Julia told him it’s the same – only twice as hard.”
Jolie checked into a Nice, France hospital on Monday where she will remain until she gives birth. Roberts gave birth to her twins, Phinnaeus and Hazel, three years ago.

Julia Roberts may be a global superstar but last night Abigail Breslin was the focus of screaming fans – hordes of little girls, that is – at the premiere of Kit Kittredge: An American Girl.
Roberts, who is one of the film’s executive producers, made an appearance on the red carpet at Manhattan’s Ziegfield Theatre, along with Julianne Moore and her kids, and Jada Pinkett Smith and daughter Willow, who appears in the movie. But it was 12-year-old Breslin, who is the lead in the film inspired by the American Girl doll phenomenon, that drew the star worship, with packs of girls – many of them carrying their American Girl dolls – swarming, screaming and trying to track her with their cell phones.

Breslin said she also relates to the Girl craze. “I grew up with all the dolls,” Breslin told PEOPLE. “I collected all the dolls since I was eight or so. I’ve just always liked the dolls and Kit was always my favorite.”
The swarm continued at the film’s afterparty, held – where else? – at the American Girl store in Manhattan. As Breslin sat with her family around a long table overflowing with pink cupcakes, feathers, flowers and cotton candy, girls were clamoring to get their photo taken with the young star.
Chris O’Donnell, who plays Breslin’s dad, was struck by his little costar’s composure through it all. “Seeing Abigail walk in and hearing the crowd cheer for her, I feel like we’ve got a little Shirley Temple on our hands,” O’Donnell told PEOPLE. “It’s so sweet. She handles it so well. When we were with her in Chicago, I’m telling you there was a line 100 girls long. It was like they were waiting for Santa Claus.”
