The main audience of this issue of the
magazine is aimed at Nicole Scherzingers
fan, especially the big text actually
referring to her fans as ‘Dolls’. Its mainly for
teenagers aged 17+ because inside this
magazine there is information about the
latest trends and tips on fashion.
The pride title looks very mesmerising as it
covertly mixed with Nicole’s makeup. The
magazine is a mixture of different colours
that draws you in straight away, its also
very bright so its very eye catching. Her
facial beauty is highlighted which contrasts
with the magazines scheme colour which is
very effective as her picture is what
catches the attention of readers and its
what they mesmerise.
Analysis of contents page
Main image – The
attractive image is of
Nicole with her legs up
high wearing heels. Her
clothes are very
fashionable which links
to the heading
‘Fashion’. The picture
doesn’t look too
demanding which is
important to remember
as there not a lot of
writing on this page.

Masthead – the title is split up
into 3 lines which makes it very
different and bold compared
to other contents pages. It
makes it stand out.

Coverlines – The title for the
coverlines is very classy and
stands out as its black with a
light background. The font is
very fancy and unique. The
stories are numbered to show
what page they can be found
on.
