Julianne Moore Laughs Off Hilarious Flip-Flops Featuring Her Famous Crying Face

Julianne Moore has received one of the most unusual gifts of her career—and she is taking it with a sense of humor.

The Oscar-winning actress, 65, shared an Instagram post on Thursday showing off a custom pair of flip-flops decorated with her now-famous crying expressions from the 2014 film Maps to the Stars. Alongside the photo, Moore joked, "I don't know what I did to deserve this."

The flip-flops feature two different close-up images of Moore's emotional performance. One sandal shows her well-known crying face, while the other displays an even more dramatic expression. Both images come from David Cronenberg's psychological drama Maps to the Stars, in which Moore played Havana Segrand, a struggling actress trying to escape the shadow of her famous mother.

The custom footwear was a gift from Moore's friend, artist Alana O'Herlihy. Moore thanked her publicly, writing that she was "happy and grateful" for the unique present. O'Herlihy also shared the flip-flops on her Instagram Story and jokingly nicknamed them "Summa Slippas."

Moore's expressive acting has long been praised by critics and loved by fans. Over the years, many of her emotional scenes have become popular memes online, with her memorable crying face becoming one of the internet's favorite reaction images.

Despite the lighthearted attention, Moore's career is defined by acclaimed performances across film and television. After years of critical praise, she won the Academy Award for Best Actress for her performance in Still Alice (2014).

Her impressive filmography includes celebrated movies such as Safe, Boogie Nights, Magnolia, and Far From Heaven. She has also starred in blockbuster hits including The Lost World: Jurassic Park and two Hunger Games films alongside Jennifer Lawrence.

More recently, Moore has appeared in television series including Apple TV+'s Lisey's Story, Starz's Mary & George, and Netflix's hit limited series Sirens.

Fans won't have to wait long to see her on screen again. Moore is set to appear later this year in Jesse Eisenberg's upcoming film The Debut.

While custom sandals featuring a famous crying face may not be an everyday gift, Moore's playful reaction shows she is more than happy to embrace the internet's affection for one of her most unforgettable performances.
