JULIA ROBERTS poked fun at her pal PAUL RUDD’s lack of Irish ancestry on Thursday (24Feb11) as she presented the actor with an award from the U.S.-Irish Alliance.<\/p>\n

\nThe I Love You, Man star was named as the recipient of the organisation’s 2011 Honorary Irishman title and he was feted at the Oscar Wilde: Honoring the Irish in Film event in Los Angeles.\n<\/p>\n

\n Roberts made a surprise appearance at the prizegiving to pay tribute to Rudd, her co-star in a 2006 Broadway production of Three Days of Rain, and she made the audience chuckle by joking about the actor’s heritage.\n<\/p>\n

\n Pointing out that Rudd was actually born to Jewish immigrants from England, she told the crowd, “This is so crazy, really, Paul Rudd – Paul MCRudd – is Jewish, not Irish!\n<\/p>\n

\n “Maybe I can become Irish. My middle name is Fiona, which is a step closer to being Irish than Paul Rudd was five minutes ago.”<\/p>\n
