Aimee’s post comes after Julia was accused of body shaming another star at the glitzy event.
Teyana Taylor said fans took a Golden Globes exchange with Julia the wrong way as she addressed backlash over the viral moment.
The singer-actress was celebrating her first-ever Golden Globe nomination Sunday night when she met Roberts – one of her longtime heroes – for the first time.
The emotional encounter went viral after Julia hugged Teyana and could be heard telling her she was ‘teeny tiny’ before joking, ‘You need to eat a sandwich.’
Addressing the moment on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon on Wednesday, Taylor explained, ‘I’ve seen people trying to get on her about that, and I was like, ‘Hold on.”
‘She told me I needed a sandwich because she couldn’t find my waist… she was like, ‘Girl, you need a sandwich.’ It was so cute,’ Teyana added.
The star made it clear Julia’s comment didn’t offend her and said the red carpet exchange was a moment she genuinely cherished.
‘It was so amazing,’ she added. ‘I just remember her parting the sea for me. She came through like Moses.’

‘She was floating. It was so scary how perfectly she was floating,’ she continued. ‘I just dived into her arms. It was just the cutest moment and I started crying.’
Julia, 58, didn’t win her category, but she still owned the room by getting lots of attention from the adoring crowd.
She was nominated for Best Actress in a Motion Picture for her role in After the Hunt on Sunday, but lost out to Hamnet star Jessie Buckley.
While presenting the award for Best Motion Picture – Musical or Comedy, Julia took to the stage and got her a standing ovation.
