Saturday Night Live alum Molly Shannon knows Julia Roberts now but said she learned a lesson from the Hollywood icon before they even met. (Watch the video below.)
On Mondays episode of Watch What Happens Live , Shannon told Host Andy Cohen that she was once a host at a restaurant that Roberts frequented. One day, the Notting Hill actor came in for breakfast.
Shannon said she took notes on how to be an actress and observed that Roberts ordered sausage.
And I was like: Interesting. Superstars eat sausage, Shannon recalled.
For what its worth, a person who prefers sausage for breakfast is a breakfast champion, BuzzFeed once declared .
Its hard to blame Shannon for drawing goofy ideas about showbiz success from a superstar and breakfast champion like Roberts.
