Amid a sea of beehives, bouffants and buns, it was a remarkably low-key affair.

In fact, Jennifer Aniston’s red-carpet hairstyle looks like something most of us could attempt with a decent pair of straightening irons and a bit of patience.

But astonishingly, the sleek style cost the actress almost $51,000.

The sky-high bill came because Miss Aniston, 40, insisted her hairdresser Chris McMillan accompany her on a week-long trip to Europe.

He flew with her from Los Angeles to London in first class last week, at an estimated cost of $18,300 each.

They returned to London so Miss Aniston could walk the red carpet at Leicester Square on Monday.

On top of this, Mr. McMillan was treated to an all-expenses-paid stay at several top hotels for the seven-day visit at a cost of $12,700.

It is thought that he also charged up to $1,900 a day for his tress-teasing expertise, pushing up the bill by another $13,200.

It is unclear whether Mr. McMillan, who is a close friend of Miss Aniston, was paid personally by her or by the film’s production company, Fox.

Earlier, the actress revealed that her love of the natural look is not restricted to her hair.

‘I tried Botox once and it was really not good for me,’ she told Elle magazine. ‘I felt like I had a weight on my head.’

She added: ‘I think it makes women look older. Harder. The warmth in their face goes away.

‘You see women and you know they’re not young, but you can’t tell how old they are. That’s what stopped me.’
Then he accompanied her on a private jet trip to Paris for a premiere of her latest film Marley & Me – racking up another $5,000 bill.

What can fifteen minutes of screen time in an Oscar award-winning film do for a girl?

Actually, what can it not do for a girl? After making a splash on the international circuit in Slumdog Millionaire, Freida Pinto is rumoured to be the new face of the cosmetic giant Estée Lauder. If the deal is finalized, Freida would be the first Indian to be the face of the brand, joining the ranks of Elizabeth Hurley and Gwyneth Paltrow.

Freida’s Indian spokesperson does not deny the news of Freida being the new face, saying, “Estée Lauder hasn’t commented so far, so we can’t say anything currently. Nothing is in black and white as yet.”

From walking the ramp for Dolce and Gabbana alongside Scarlet Johansson at the Milan Fashion Week in Italy to bagging a role in a Woody Allen film, with Hollwood stylist George Kotsiopoulos by her side, Freida is everywhere. She’s also been on numerous magazine covers like Entertainment Weekly, Vanity Fair, Maxim, Vogue and Cosmopolitan. It is amazing what fifteen minutes of screen time have done for this 24 year old debutante.

GET THE LOOK: “I wanted the makeup to reflect Leighton’s beautiful and effortless dress,” says makeup artist Christopher Colbeck, who created this neutral-toned look on Leighton Meester. “We decided to keep the colors very soft and subtle with notes of cooler tones.”

INSIDER TRICK: Colbeck kept to the following neutral palette of products: Lancome tinted moisturizer, Chanel bronzing powder, golden sand Dior eyeshadow and icy beige M.A.C lipstick. He finished the look “with a light dusting of pearly white shimmer powder on the cheeks, eyelids, shoulders and legs to complement the cooler tones of the look.”

I love that Dior palette! Okay, I love any Dior palette.  I wish I had money, I’d buy this right now!
