Julia Roberts’s Hairstylist Wants to Answer Your Questions

Julia Roberts Hair
Jackson Lee/Splash News Online

Julia Roberts and Serge Normant have been an awesome twosome for more than 18 years — but despite his skills, the mega-watt stylist isn’t taking credit for her locks. “People got to know her with that big head of hair and beautiful curls. I don’t think I taught her. I think it’s a pretty easy process with her,” a modest Normant told PEOPLE. Creating a similar look, however, is surprisingly simple. “It’s best to wrap one piece one way [around a curling iron] and the next [in the opposite direction]. Mix it up.” To read more styling tips from Julia’s lock star, pick up the current issue of PEOPLE. Have your own hair question for Normant? Send it to reader_questions@peoplemag.com (be sure to include your name and hometown, too) and you could see it featured in an upcoming issue of PEOPLE! –Jackie Fields, with reporting by Pamela Edwards Christiani

Jennifer Aniston’s New Signature Scent Now Available to Buy!

It’s been a long time coming, but Jennifer Aniston‘s first signature scent is finally making its American debut. “I wanted this fragrance to be a personal library of scent memories,” Aniston says in a release for the eponymous juice, which was originally called Lolavie. “For example, my love of night blooming jasmine has lasted a lifetime. Growing up in California, I distinctly remember the scent of the Jasmine on summer evenings.” The fragrance also takes inspiration from the sea, which is evident in the campaign shot for the scent (below). “I consider the scent of the ocean to be one of life’s most uplifting sensual experiences,” she comments. “The combination of the salty air and tropical oils reminds me of long sunny days on the beach–pure happiness.” Jennifer Aniston goes on sale today, exclusively at Sephora.com, with prices starting at $39 for a 1-oz. bottle. It will begin rolling into Sephora stores nationwide at the end of March. Tell us: Are you excited to give Jennifer Aniston’s scent a try?–Katherine Kluznik Rentmeester

Looks like Leighton Meester is kicking off her February with a bang! The star was spotted all around the Big Apple Tuesday promoting her new movie, The Roommate, at three separate events –- in three different stylish outfits! The 24-year-old started the day off coming up roses in a floral sequined Emanuel Ungaro long-sleeve mini dress, which she paired with Pierre Hardy ankle-strap heels, for her Late Night with Jimmy Fallon appearance. Her toned legs were on display again at a “Meet the Actors” Apple Store event in Soho, where Meester looked chic in a black-and-olive Giambattista Valli dress and sexy Brian Atwood leopard-print heels with elasticized straps. For her final look, the February NYLON cover girl stepped out for the magazine’s dinner party downtown in a layered orange-and-black Proenza Schouler dress, this time keeping her shoes simple with black Brian Atwood pumps. We have to hand it to the brunette beauty for showing up in three very different looks, but we want to know what you think. Tells us: Which of Leighton’s three dresses is your favorite? – Hana Choi

Jennifer Lopez Flaunts Her Goddess Gams as Venus Global Ambassador

Jennifer Lopez‘s smoking-hot campaign shot leaves little question about why she was chosen as the new ambassador for Venus Pro Skin. “My legs have taken me many places in my life,” she tells PEOPLE of what drew her to the brand, which she credits with keeping them flawless. “Their message is all about feeling like a goddess. I thought that was beautiful and it’s very empowering.” And while you might expect that being in front of the cameras would be when Jennifer feels most divine, “For me, these moments range from the red carpet–when it’s easy to feel like a goddess–to the times I walk in the door and my kids hug me by throwing their arms around my legs,” she says. Your own goddess moments can be equally powerful: for each one shared on the Venus website, $1 will be donated to the Venus Goddess Fund for Education, which funds organizations such as CARE International, the Step Up Women’s Network and Lopez’s own Maribel Foundation. –Katherine Kluznik Rentmeester
