Smiles, purpose and ‘pickling:’ Julia Roberts talks timeless beauty in British Vogue
CNN
In the fashion magazine’s February issue, Roberts talks about feminist choices she’s made in her career and how it feels to be one of Hollywood’s most famous faces.
With her signature megawatt smile and timeless style, Julia Roberts might be a beauty icon, but she doesn’t take herself too seriously. When asked in a new interview with British Vogue what keeps her looking youthful at 56, the actor responded with a wry wit. “Pickling. I put my head in the jar every other Saturday for 18 hours. It does wonders,” she joked. “The smell is awful.” Roberts is on the cover of British Vogue’s February issue. In a corresponding interview for the magazine with “Notting Hill” screenwriter Richard Curtis, she talks about ageless beauty, the “feminist” choices she’s made in her career and how it feels to be one of the most famous faces in Hollywood. Jokes aside, Roberts says the key to youthfulness is in the people and experiences that make up her life. Of course, genetics helps too. “Good genes, leading a life that is fulfilling, and I have said this — and I say it usually as kind of a joke — but I do believe in the love of a good man,” she told the publication. “I believe that my husband loves me and cares for me in a way that makes me feel deeply, deeply happy. And anytime you see someone who’s happy, it doesn’t matter how old they are.”
Anesthesiologists are raising alarm about an insurance company’s plan to limit the amount time they cover for anesthesia used in surgeries and procedures. One major professional group of anesthesiologists is calling for immediate reversal of the “unprecedented move,” saying it’s egregious and uninformed.
