Emma Roberts reveals her White Lotus ambition
The 34-year-old actress is a huge fan of the hit HBO series, and Emma would jump at the chance to star on season four of the show.
She told PopSugar: "I'm unwell from The White Lotus. I want to be on next season, but that's such a dumb thing to say because who doesn't?"
Emma would even love to play the murder victim on the next season of the show.
She said: "I'll just be the body."
Emma is "totally addicted" to The White Lotus, even though she was "late to the party".
The actress explained: "I'm always late to the party.
"I always read and watch things after everyone's already talked about it, and then everyone's like, 'Shut up, we've already talked about it.' So I was late to The White Lotus and now I'm totally addicted."
Emma has already achieved huge success in her career, starring in movies such as Palo Alto, Valentine's Day and We're the Millers. But the actress previously claimed that the public underestimates the challenges faced by so-called nepo babies.
The Hollywood star - whose aunt is actress Julia Roberts and whose father is actor Eric Roberts - said on the Table for Two with Bruce Bozzi podcast: "People kind of only see your wins because they only see when you're on the poster of a movie. They don't see all the rejection along the way.
"That's why I'm always very open about things I've auditioned for and haven't gotten the part for.
"I think it's important to talk about - otherwise people just think everything's been so great and linear and easy, and no, it's not at all. But of course it looks like that to the outside perspective or to the naked eye."
Emma suggested that having family ties to Hollywood can be a double-edged sword.
She said: "I think there's two sides of the coin. People like to say, you know, you have a leg up because you have family in the industry.
"But then the other side to that is you have to prove yourself more.
"Also, if people don't have good experiences with other people in your family, then you'll never get a chance."

What to Watch: Dexter: Resurrection, the Tour de France, Too Much, Foundation S3
Dexter's back — again. Apparently, there's just no keeping a good vigilante serial killer down, and almost 20 years, eight seasons and two spin-offs later, Michael C. Hall's twisted anti-hero is back doing what he does best. And by that we mean killing people. Lots and LOTS of people. This revival is a continuation of the original crime drama that ran from 2006 to 2013, which saw Jeff Lindsay's serial killer novels translated to the small screen. During its initial run, the series gained widespread acclaim, scooping up Golden Globes for Hall, who played Miami-based blood spatter analyst turned serial killer Dexter Morgan. Its initial premise was genius: Dexter isn't just your run-of-the-mill killer — he only goes after people who deserve to die. Viewers connected with it, and the story kept being spun off, with 2021's Dexter: New Blood (2021-22) and the prequel series Dexter: Original Sin (2024). This latest picks up after New Blood's sensational finale, and sees Dexter miraculously recovered from his near-fatal gunshot wound. He winds up in New York in a frantic search for his son Harrison (Jack Alcott), who was the one who tried to off his dad. I can't tell you much more as there are iron-clad embargoes in place, but I will say this: if you've been a Dark Passenger on Dexter's journey so far, you won't want to miss this latest instalment, which boasts a superb guest cast including Uma Thurman, Peter Dinklage, Eric Stonestreet and the return of David Zayas as Angel Batista. Grab your lycra, we're rolling out. The world's most famous cycling race kicks off on Saturday, with the peloton starting out from Lille. The 184 riders will leg it across 3337km to end up at the Champs-Elysees in Paris on Sunday July 27. All 21 stages of this year's Tour will take place in France for the first time in five years, so get ready to armchair your way across some spectacular countryside. All hail Michael Portillo and his purple linen blazer! Eight seasons on and I'm still obsessively tuning into this show despite having zero interest in locomotives. I can't explain my fascination with this series, which sees Portillo (with his trusty 1936 Bradshaw's travel guide) criss-crossing the world. But if it's on, I'll tune in. Slow TV + a man in a fedora + some nice scenery = a night well spent. Adore this show and its purple-suited host. Lena Dunham is behind this series, which sees Hacks' Megan Stalter playing Jessica, a workaholic New Yorker who relocates to London after a difficult break-up. She meets left-of-centre musician Felix (The White Lotus' Will Sharpe) and this series, based loosely on Dunham's own experiences with husband Luis Felber (the show's co-creator), is about how their two worlds collide. Dunham fans will want to check this one out. Three seasons on, and this sci-fi series, based on Isaac Asimov's famous work, has managed to do the impossible, not only growing its (admittedly niche) audience, but also attracting the kind of universally favourable reviews most other genre TV series can only dream about. There's a big time jump, so it may take a while to wrap your head around this latest season and the new characters. Worth discovering.

Emma Roberts doesn't wash her hair on holiday
Emma Roberts doesn't wash her hair when she's on holiday. The 34-year-old star has revealed that she prefers to dip her hair into the ocean water rather washing it with shampoo and conditioner. Emma told Popsugar: "I try not to wash my hair on vacation. "I put my hair into braids and jump in the ocean. That's what I do instead of shampoo and conditioner." The actress doesn't like the idea of mixing hotel products with her dyed hair. She explained: "I've washed my hair when I've just dyed it and it's turned a crazy colour. "When I have blonde hair it's turned yellow, and when I've had red hair it washes it all out. So I get so scared to really give my hair a real wash." Emma has actually gone as long as five days without washing her hair while she's been on holiday. She said: "I try to get a blowout the day before I leave for vacation, and then I will ride that blowout into the dry-shampoo end." Emma thinks the public actually has the wrong impression of her. The actress explained: "I don't need as many glamorous things as I think people think." Meanwhile, Emma previously revealed that she loved working with Kim Kardashian on American Horror Story. The 44-year-old beauty joined the cast of the anthology horror series for season 12 of the show, and Emma relished the experience of working with her showbiz pal. Speaking on the Table for Two podcast, Emma shared: "She is one of the most prepared actors I've worked with. "I mean, I've come to work sometimes and people - that I won't name, but you know who - they don't know their lines at all, which, whatever, it's fine, we all have those days. But she knew every single line." Emma noted that Kim displayed an impressive level of self-confidence on set, despite having no significant acting experience. The actress observed that Kim was "super professional" and "confident". Emma said: "She also will just look you in the eye and do it. "To be that open and vulnerable - and I get embarrassed sometimes and I've been acting for 20 years - she's super professional, confident."
