"There are people who think Julia Roberts is hot!?" Roberts reads from @kemotherapy7. "Her gigantic mouth looks like it will devour an elephant in one bite."

"Ethan Hawke seems like a guy who wasn't supposed to be a movie star," Hawke adds from @julienaxelrod. "But he slipped through the cracks and everyone was just like 'Ok.'"

Some celebrities could not help but laugh at the mean tweets directed at them. English actor Gary Oldman burst into laughter as he read, "Gary Oldman sucks and his accents are [expletive]ing annoying as [expletive]" from @hoveybenjamin.
