the comedy,'Love Story'.
Vickers is featuring as the main artist in my magazine because she’s a
young and successfulartist in the pop genre, and the young audience
can aspire to be like her. She has also taken part in charity work, so she
is a positive role modelfor her fans.
Other artists that will feature in my magazine are The Nymphs; a British
band from Wales who are upcoming in the pop music genre. Taylor Swift
also appears on the front cover of ‘OMGPOP’, and there are exclusive
images from her concert in this issue.
