You can study journalism in the university. They will teach you all you need to know to be a journalist. You will also get a chance to do your own reporting in the field because most universities require their students to work as an intern in a media company. You will taste what it's like gathering information and composing it. Then you can try applying to People Magazine.

I guess studying very hard would be the first thing. If you have a grasp of language etc you will do well to start with.
Then I guess it's understanding about the publication you want to write for. What is it that People report on.
Then I guess you can start your studies and aim them in the direction of what People write on. Make sure you have plenty of related articles in your portfolio.
