Textual Analysis

 With this magazine the logo is very simple but because of the size and the colour being red (in contrast to the other colours being black and white), it is eye catching and easily recognised. It doesn't have a masthead at the top of the front cover instead the largest print is the name of the celebrity on the cover running through the middle of the page. This shows there is a large article on Lily Allen and because of the bold, red lettering underneath repeating 'wicked, wicked' will draw people in to read her story. The image of Lily being half nude and hiding part of her face shows secrets are to be revealed, she is making eye contact with the camera and therefore the audience will feel they will find out gossip so are then attracted to buy the magazine. Also working with this idea, the use of the panther's create a dangerous atmosphere maybe showing dirty secrets will be told in this edition. The cover isn't overly busy but more classy and expensive. There are only four colours used keeping it neat and simply sophisticated. There are a few different fonts used in the headlines with different sizes and bold being used throughout. The colours are unisex as well as the image appealing to both sexes as women may be a fan and want to read about the girls life or men who are attracted by the image being slightly raunchy as well as the big cats being there to attract males also.
