The niece of veteran actress Julia Roberts admits that she doesn't like it when some people make comments accusing her of taking advantage from her famous kin.Emma Roberts doesn't like it when people think she is taking advantage of her famous kin. The 20-year-old actress recently shared that she found out about some chatters on the blogs suggesting that she has benefited from being the daughter of actor Eric Roberts and the niece of veteran actress Julia Roberts, and was quick to slam the comments.

The "Valentine's Day" star told Pop Eater, "A lot of people think that and they talk about nepotism which I think is so ridiculous considering it's obviously not true, because I've auditioned for so many things and never gotten the part." She added, "Also it's like, you know, maybe someone can get you one part but they can't really get you ten parts."

The New York-born starlet further admitted she often felt annoyed by bloggers who were picking on the issue. "Oh well, if someone wants to say that to my face. If someone blogs about it I'll be annoyed," she said. "I would actually have more respect for them if they said it to my face, then I would probably not say anything back."

Asked if she is now immune to those nasty comments on the internet, the actress who plays Sally in "The Art of Getting By" admitted, "I don't read them anymore but obviously you know that they're there." She claimed, "For me I can't let it bother me because for me anyone hiding behind a computer is kind of irrelevant."

The "nepotism" issue aside, Emma talked about her favorite guilty pleasure. "I eat so much junk food. What I eat most is chocolate croissants," she revealed during the interview. "I'm eating one right now. I probably eat them more than I eat anything else. I'm obsessed and I love a midnight Milky Way." She also revealed that she love to read and go to the movies when she's not working.
