The Fame Game

Hello magazine is synonymous with gossip and the latest celebrity news.  It is a magazine that allows you into the homes of certain celebrities, dishes the dirt on their relationships, and apparently gives out free bars of chocolate.
  On this edition the fact that they have placed Kate Moss in the middle of royalty suggests that the editors don't really have a hierarchal system of celebrity, they are as important or unimportant as each other depending on how you look at it.
  The photographs themselves are nothing special, glossy and in Zara Phillips case unflattering.  To me Hello magazine appeals to housewives, or ladies on their lunchbreaks at work needing a quick fix of something not important.  I do not know of any young people wanting to read about Kate Middleton or Zara Phillips, but the free chocolate bar would be an attraction.
