Influenced by the 00s nostalgia thread and also the likes of Lucy Meck and co who still get OK magazine deals to announce names of new baby.
I used to love magazines like Closer, New, OK etc but I think the last time I bought one and read one just have been about 8-10 years ago now. I don’t know why but they just don’t seem… relevant? asI’ve got older. I don’t really know anybody who buys them these days.
I do think they are perhaps not as popular anymore. The general aim of these magazines was to slam ‘celebs’ in their bikinis for gaining a few pounds (thankfully body shaming isn’t really the done things anymore). Also I guess with the rise of social media and news sites it’s easy to get updates without paying.
But, I still see them on the shelves so, tell me, are you a magazine fan? Have you noticed a shift in their content as opposed to times gone by? Also which ones did you used to read? Share some funny articles and reminisce here
