Yeah, Julia's brother is in a very cool new video, "Mr. Brightside," by the Killers. The actor looks a little like Dean Martin in this one.
As I watched the video for the first time on launch.com, I thought, that dude looks familiar - is that Lance Henrikson? Willem Dafoe? But, no, it turns out to be Eric "the brother of" Roberts.
He plays a Hugh Hefner type who sits around in a bordello and watches people get it on! I read that the set has been used in many porno flicks throughout the years. But, don't let that discourage you from watching this excellent video by one of my favorite new bands.
Eric was also in Ja Rule's "Down A** Chick" video a while back, playing the role of a detective. Betcha he stars in a country video next.
