Is Emma Roberts trying to steal Liam Hemsworth from Miley Cyrus?

Emma Roberts

Sometimes I wonder if Emma Roberts really is a mini-me of Julia Roberts, for they do seem to share the same entitled attitude. At least Julia made it on her own as an actress though, and now Emma has come in to ride on her Oscar-winning aunt’s coattails, make a handful of mediocre films herself, and still have the audacity to claim that nepotism simply doesn’t exist in Hollywood.

Well now it seems that Emma might be taking a page from Julia’s man-stealing book as well. Allegedly, Emma is trying to put the moves on Liam Hemsworth while they film Empire State together, and Miley Cyrus isn’t happy about it, according to this week’s Enquirer. Look, I believed for awhile that Liam would “outgrow” Miley at a certain point, but given that he recently put a ring on it, I think they’re a solid couple. Do I still believe that Emma would go there? Yep. Here’s the story:

Miley Cyrus Liam Hemsworth

Miley Cyrus has issued a stern warning to fiance Liam Hemsworth’s wild-child co-star Emma Roberts: “Hands off my man!”

Her Australian fiance has been filming Empire State on location in new Orleans and New York with Emma, who plays his love interest. Now Miley is terrified that the hard-partying niece of Oscar winner Julia Roberts is tyring to steal her sweetheart!

“Miley’s become super protective since she and Liam got engaged,” said an insdier. “She’s worried that while he’s off making movies with hot women, he’ll be tempted to cheat. And it didn’t help that Emma showed up on set declaring that she is single and ready to mingle.”

Miley, 19, and liam, 22, announced their engagement in late May after three years of dating. And while Miley ahs visiited Liam on-set in New Orleans and he’s traveled back to Los Angeles recently to see her, insiders say that she blew up after learning that the Hunger Games hunk had been hanging out with Emma, 21, and another co-star, actress Nikki Reed, during off-worl hours.

“Miley doesn’t want Liam socializing with a loose cannon like Emma,” the insider divulged. “She thinks the girl is bad news. Not only did she tell Liam it had to stop, she even confronted Emma, reminding her that Liam is off the market.

But Emma apparently isn’t concerned. “She couldn’t care less what Miley thinks,” added the source. “She makes fun of Miley behind her back, saying she’s just a washed-up tween star. Emma feels she has nothing to lose, so she’s pushing it as far as she can with Liam. And he’s definitely enjoying the attention.”

[From Enquirer, print edition, July 30, 2012]

Meanwhile, this week’s In Touch and Star also have Miley stories, both of which center upon the scars revealed when the paps focused on her new and bizarre Teddy Roosevelt forearm tattoo. Here’s a sort-of closeup view of what the tabloids are talking about — which is that Miley is a cutter — but everyone seems to be thinking these are new marks. If anything, these scars don’t look fresh at all, and I’m not sure whether there’s ever been a definitive answer to whether Miley cut herself in the past, but these scars look at least a year old to me. Thoughts?

    Sounds just like aunt Julia. A low vera 2.0. But I wouldn’t mess with Miley.

    • Cherry says:

      Why, because Emma ‘showed up on set declaring that she is single and ready to mingle’? And because Liam has been hanging out with her ‘during off-work hours’ (with someone present, mind you)? Why does that automatically mean that she wants to STEAL someone else’s financé? This whole story is very anti-Emma, IMO. All of these ‘sources’ basically calling her a total bitch? Ouch.

      • gigi says:

        Yeah, it’s a hatchet job on Emma, or she’s just a casualty in the campaign to create buzz about Miley.

      • Amelia says:

        I thought the same. It’s probably been puffed up our of proportion. Emma probably was flirting, and I wouldn’t put it past her to do a Julia, but Miley isn’t known for being the most secure person in the world – the first photo says it all. If there’s one thing the media loves more than a relationship, it’s a love triangle. And if there’s one thing they love more than a triangle, it’s a feud.

      • Raven says:

        ITA, Cherry. I like Emma and am not a big fan of Miley. But then I’d take Emma’s dad over Miley’s any day.

    • beyonce's bump says:

      hahaha ya it does.

  2. cr says:

    Sadly my first thought was how long did it take Emma to ‘coordinated’ the POC shorts outfit in the top photo.

  3. serena says:

    I just see one scar. And seriously it can be anything. Given the fact that she has a lot of dogs, maybe it’s that.

    • Suzen says:

      Yeah, plus it could simply be a mark from the bracelet. I get red marks when my arm is resting on something.

    • MerryHappy says:

      It’s a cut. Look at the picture under the closeup. I have a friend who was a cutter. Unfortunately, i can spot that from a mile away. Inner arm, near wrist, but not on it entirely, also very faint faded scars higher up on the other side of her arm; under the closeup you can see it pucker up like a healing wound. Imho, it’s a cut, not bracelet mark. Hopefully not self induced, but most likely…. Remember Demi and her jelly bracelet marks?

    • embertine says:

      Yep, I saw a few that looked like claw scratches. I’m lucky, my cats don’t scratch, but I’ve seen very similar marks from people who have dog or cat scratches.

      Plus, very few cutters go out in short-sleeved shirts showing off their marks. As an ex-cutter who also had a few friends who did it, I know I was torn between desperately wanting someone to realise I was hurting, and obsessively covering it up. No-one I knew who cut would show it off so casually.

      • deehunny says:

        Really? One of my good friends from University of Florida when we were in college would casually show her cuts to pretty much anyone that would look.

        When my husband first met her I went to the bathroom and she showed him in a very conspicuous way by holding up her forearms while talking. She is the type of woman that enjoys the attention it brings.

      • MerryHappy says:

        @deehunny
        Same. My friend never hid hers. She never even thought to, when she was in that state of mind. She also was around animals a lot, so people would try to make her excuses. Some cutters WANT people to see.

    • Rachel says:

      Exactly!!! And at least one of them is still a puppy. Puppies nip and leave little marks all over your arms.

    • wtffff says:

      i’ll say it again, “google miley cyrus cutter.” tons of fresh, linear cuts in the same arm/wrist area. animals don’t scratch you in EXCLUSIVELY ONE SPOT ON YOUR WRIST. use your deduction skills, peeps.

  4. JudyK says:

    Miley is so much more attractive than Emma…and, wow, Emma has manfeet.

    • thyphoid mary says:

      NOPE, Emma is prettier by a long shot. At least she is not bloated and starving herself for a man. Miley is the fype of chipmunk that thinks a man will stay with you if you’re very skinny like Leann Rimes, instead of really being herself.
      Emma seems more authentic, even though i can’ t stand her auntie.

  5. Birdie says:

    Emma Roberts is very annoying and not as talented as she likes to think. I mean, she thought she had an actual chance to get the Katniss role. And her trying to steal Liam: LOL! She realizes that she is not a beauty? (in my book).

    • Tillie says:

      I feel the same Birdie. I don’t think Emma is ugly or anything (not at all), but she’s just not my cup of tea and I really don’t like her ‘acting skills’

  6. beyonce's bump says:

    Liam is not going to leave Miley for Emma. What incentive will he have for doing it? I mean looks aside, miley just seems cooler and “more chill” and it is debatable that he is with miley to further he’s career. It would be career suicide for him to leave MC for ER. Nope not happening.

    • Rhea says:

      I’m not a fan with the three of them, but I would also choose Miley over Emma just because Miley seems more down to earth. Don’t think Liam would trade Miley either for Emma.

    • Minty says:

      Having seen both of them interviewed on TV, Miley has a lot more personality than Emma. Emma is bland-acting and bland-looking.

      If this story is true, and there’s not enough evidence to prove it is, leaving Miley for Emma probably wouldn’t ruin his career. People cheat all the time in Hollywood with no lasting repercussions. All they care about in that town is that you’re a moneymaker. Besides, Liam and Miley aren’t even married.

      Regarding the post, I disagree that Julia made it on her own. She certainly sucked up to the right people at the beginning and took advantage of the fact that her brother Eric was an established (and Oscar-nominated) actor since the 1980s.

    • Bread and Circuses says:

      Not to mention Miley has enough money for them both to retire very comfortably on right now.

      What has Emma got to offer that would be an improvement over Miley? Nothing.

  7. Lol says:

    I don’t think they’re cutting scars. Miley has LOADS of dogs. I have one dog and 3 cats and i’m always covered in scratches. Maybe its from the dogs jumping up on her.

    • Eleonor says:

      Not only she has a lot of dogs, but some of them are puppies, who eat everything, especially when they change theets.

  8. Aria says:

    Emma is fugly. I don’t get her hype. She was good for Disney franchise but that’s pretty much it.

  9. wtffff says:

    I like Miley, and I agree that Liam is unlikely to downgrade from his fiancée to Emma or another wannabe starlet. However, that picture doesn’t do her obvious cutting scars justice. If you google ‘Miley Cyrus cutter,’ the proof is right there for anyone with a pair of functioning eyeballs. There’s recent pictures of fresh looking cuts. And as an adoptive mommy of abused cats that like to scratch the shit out of me, I never have perfect parallel lines like she does. Animal cuts don’t generally look like that; they are haphazard and random, rather than linear and exclusively in one location.

  10. marie says:

    If Miley and Liam are as solid as everyone thinks then he won’t cheat, if he cheats then he did it cause he wanted too..You can only “steal” people who are willing to be stolen..On a purely superficial note, Miley is prettier than Emma..

    And what, because Demi is a cutter then obviously Miley must be one since they’re both former Disney stars?

  11. srm says:

    I’m just jealous of that enormous Coach bag! I want whatever is inside.

    • Samigirl says:

      ME TOO! I have the large Poppy loves Coach bag that looks like the bag she is carrying, but, much like Veruca Salt, I WANT MORE! 🙂

  12. I.want.shoes says:

    LOL @ Emma calling Miley a washed up tween star. It’s not like she is particularly successful herself.

  13. H says:

    Meh… If Liam is ever cheats it’s going to be with Jennifer Lawrence before Emma. I mean the tabloids would have field day. Or i would at least respect him a bit with Jennifer.

    • someone says:

      so you would respect him if he was cheating as long as it was with jennifer lawrence? :S

    • stellalovejoydiver says:

      That would be a downgrade for Jennifer though, Nicolas Hoult is a lot more talented than this beefcake and sexy in a unconventional way.

  14. Black Pearl says:

    Am I the only one who thinks this story is BS? I dont like either of these 2 girls but I dont hate them either…

  15. Chattycat says:

    I am not a big Miley fan, and to be honest what does she expect being engaged at 19 to a 21 y/o during the prowl years? Very very difficult, add in their Hollyweird and celeb status and you might as well just forget it. Sorry Miley and Liam (who btw happen to be here in Philly for awhile hoping you have fun in our town and area).

    But this Emma chick, who I don’t recall seeing in anything, is a typical looking 21 y/o that is only something BECAUSE OF NEPOTISM in Hollywood. Nothing worst then some smug, no talent 21 y/o who could out bitch Julia and this little twit seems to have accomplished that…and that’s doing something!

  16. Talie says:

    The story has some truth. Miley is kind of washed up and this marriage will be good for her PR-wise…he, on the other hand, may be rushing in. This will not end well and sadly, there will probably be a baby involved.

  17. ernie says:

    I like Emma as bratty as she is, there’s a spark there. I like the sense of trouble and drama she seems to carry everywhere she goes. We need some of that in gossip. And in terms of Hollywood pedigree, Emma is royalty to Miley’s peasant, talent or not.

    Frankly, I don’t see the problem. Emma can try any move she wants, but if Liam is as serious about Miley as everyone says he is, then there should be nothing to worry about. I mean seriously, I hate when women battle it out among themselves while the males are innocent bystanders. Poor schmucks who couldn’t help it.
    Insecurity is a bitch.

  18. MK yarwood says:

    Every story about Emma Roberts sounds like this. She doesn’t seem to care, either. She always has a smug look on her face and it is realistic to believe she would say something catty about a peer. She already is part of a generation where most young women are brought up in a culture of competition. Combine that with some Hollyweird bloodlines and poof! This brat.

  19. Natalina says:

    I find Emma Roberts disgusting and obnoxious

  20. The Original Mia says:

    Liam & Miley are solid. See Emma is still planting stories to make her seem in demand both romantically and professionally. Snooze. Entitled brat.

  21. TXCinderella says:

    Looks like Emma is a fan of 80’s clothing.

  22. Jess says:

    Team Miley. Get your own man, Emma. Also, Miley may be washed up NOW, but she did have a really hot career once. Emma has never done anything of note… ever. She’s just Eric Roberts daughter, and Julia Roberts niece.

  23. cupidityrox! says:

    Julia had help from her brother. It wasn’t all her. He landed her her first job

  24. lauraM says:

    Emma’s hair in that last pic! Yikes.

  25. Carolina says:

    Don’t they have a puppy? We just got a puppy a coupla weeks ago. I have all kinds of marks on my hands and arms.

  26. Jenna says:

    Meh; Emma’s dating Evan Peters from AHS. So while she may have tried, and failed, to bag Liam before, I’m calling B.S. on this one now.

    P.S. I like her outfit though; and that huge COACH bag. Envy! 🙂

  27. hoya_chick says:

    Why do ppl think her and Liam are so ‘solid’ if anything there were off and on before they got engage and she seems like she is way more into him than he is into her. I think he proposed to shut her up and its highly unlikely they’ll even make it to the alter much less be married a few years. I think she realizes that her career isn’t going anywhere and Liam’s is so why not get engaged and hitch on for the ride? She has enough money so it’s not like she has to work. She can go to Pilates. Not wear underwear and smoke weed all day long! I don’t like any of these ppl. Lol none of them can act. I thought Liam was awful as Gale and I’m not looking forward to his increased presence in the franchise. Emma is dating that kid from American Horror Story. There was a pic of them and a story on people or us mag’s site about it. I don’t like Emma but this story is probably not true and isnt Nikki is married too?So I think if anything they were just all hanging out after a day on set and Miley freaked out. She seems super needy and insecure. I noticed that she is following him every movie set he’s on now a days and I don’t recall him ever going to her sets as frequently (when was the last time she was even on a set?)…..we’ll see but I just don’t think they’ ll last and it won’t be because of Emma.

  28. G says:

    They are both ‘blah’…RUN LIAM!!

  29. Lani says:

    I think Emma is ugly and plain and she comes across as narcissistic and fame-whorey. Miley is at least gorgeous and there is something much classier about her. I don’t think she has anything to worry about!

  30. Crystalline says:

    The “fresh” mark on her wrist could be from her puppy. My own scratches and bites like crazy since she is hyper and teething up a storm, even on me. Usually on the other dog though.

    I do think the older healed marks on her arm could be old cutting scars and it makes sense with the tattoo placement. Its not all that uncommon for ex-cutters to tattoo over their old scars as a means of covering up, but also a reminder of what they have overcome. It certainly gives some better context to that quote.

  31. I despise Emma Roberts and I acn’t even explain why. She just annoys me SO MUCH.

    • Deryn says:

      Ermmm … because she’s all that’s bad about the Robertses (entitled, ungrateful questionably moral, and snotty) without the charm (Julia) or the talent (Eric)?

  32. Dee Cee says:

    Oh poor Miley in a tizzy and forced into drastic makeover beauty revival by a sneaky Roberts/Leann Man-stealing type A+++ vamp? HEH

  33. Dani says:

    Instead of Emma trying to steal Liam, how about someone steal those shorts and pants from Emma!? That shit is fug.

  34. dj says:

    Stop trying to make Emma Roberts happen! I have seen no indication of talent from her but somehow she keeps getting acting gigs. Hmmm. I wonder how that happens? LOL. I was not a Miley fan at all until Liam. Somehow these two seem to work.

  35. Nikki Girl says:

    Miley and Liam, a solid relationship? She’s 19 years old. 19. There’s no way, no how this relationship is going to last. I would literally bet my life on it. Sorry, they’re just way too young and they’re going to be doing a lot of changing as they grow up. Not to mention Liam’s star is quickly rising and Miley’s is falling. I think she probably pressured him into proposing because even she can see that his star power is growing beyond her own and that he may lose interest.

  36. tru tru says:

    I keep telling you guys this will not last w/Liam until the holidays…

    unless Miley stops being so obessed with the tween stars that have made it and stop being such a stalker.

    she is horrible to live with, because she has nothing going right now and she compares herself and makes stupid media attention moves that irks Liam.

    Liam wants to make movies and enjoy his youth..I will say no more.

    ps. Miley is a cutter, this is not assumed knowledge..

    I noticed that everyone always blames it on a puppy or a cat, okaaaaay.

  37. Deryn says:

    They shouldn’t be engaged at 19 and 22 anyway. Gah.

  38. skuddles says:

    Emma always looks like an unmade bed…

  39. erika says:

    ahhh…I remember 7th grade! those were the fun years.

    Welcome to marriage at 22 Liam! in 2 yrs you’ll be hunkering for a jail cell not a wife.

  40. Black Pearl says:

    I’m not a fan of all three of them but I dont get why people keep saying Emma is ugly, she’s not the most talented but she’s definitely NOT UGLY. But neither of them is gonna win Miss World any time soon..

  41. Zooyork says:

    Miley is wayyyyy prettier than Emma, and Emma is a nobody anyways. Miley at least has presence and personality as well.

  42. celebubs says:

    So funny that no one seems to remember that Miley most likely wouldn’t be where she is without her family ties. Give Emma a break!

  43. lizzi says:

    I was a cutter for years. Mine looked exactly like that. After about a year, they turn white. That looks to be about a week old. I feel bad for her; I used to cut because I felt ugly, self conscious and unloved. Maybe she cuts because she’s deep down worried she’s going to lose Liam or he will cheat. Those would be some classic reasons to do it.

    Just my opinion.

  44. eljeran says:

    any man that can be so easily “stolen” isnt worth having in the first place. That goes for Brad Pitt. I think that everyone is going to take their loathe of Julia Roberts out on Emma, which is fine by me. We dont want another Julia Roberts!!!! Julia never deserved the fame, fortune, hype, attention she ever got, ever, ever, ever, but for some reason Hollywood is just totally blind to her. No matter how many times she tanks a movie and no matter how disgustingly she treats “real people”.
