London, Feb 28 : Hollywood actress Julia Roberts snubbed an invitation to the Oscars so that she could spend the night with her children.

The stunner was offered a place at the glitzy Los Angeles event on 22 February (09), but she decided not to attend, reports The Daily Express.

Roberts has confessed that she no longer finds happiness in attending star-studded awards ceremonies, and is much happier spending a cosy evening in with her husband, Danny Moder, and their three kids: four year old twins Hazel and Phinnaeus, and Henry, 20 months.

She says, "My husband had been away and just returned home so I felt it best to stay home and be with my family.

"That was my priority so we watched the show on television. My life at home gives me absolute joy." (ANI)
