I would not call you sad treacle, you seem very happy but you must live a sad life to be interested in all that celeb drivel.
As a bbc commentater said during the commonwealth games..........The Australians love their sports people, the English seem to love their b list celebrities, now that is sad!
Hi.
There does seem to be hundreds of these magazines. I kind of flick through now and again but most of it is so so boring. I don't care how many bags Posh Spice has got ???? why would anyone care. Thats the bit I don't get about them. Who really honestly cares about how many handbags Posh has got. I guess its kind of harmless but when you read things like 'SPOTTED Richard Madley spotted filling his car with petrol at the Shell filling station in Essex' well that beggers belief about who would really care about that. Come on is anyone reading this that would be bothered even looking at RM filling his car up with petrol. ???
If your wanting a phschological slant on this the reason for celeb magazines are simple. People resent the fact that they have such an easy life and so take great enjoyment when they find out that they are not the perfect gods/goddess' that they portray them to be. I would have to agree with tourman and others like him. If you have so little in your life that reading about celebs is your only form of escapism then i advise that when you feel the urge to read heat etc pick up the phone an give a friend/parent or even grand parent ring. those people are far more important then seeing victoria bloody beckham with a slightly diffrent hat!
I'd say you were wrong Toureman. I'm not sure what you class as a sad life as I don't just spend all my time reading these mags. As I said they are my form of escapism from when I am having a breather from my degree. I am genreally interested in other people's lives and I'm also doing a course in counselling. Something I wouldn't really class as sad.
I understand we've all got a point of view but don't lable people just because you don't do it yourself. We've all got different ways of relaxing and mine's getting stuck into a good mag :-)
Hallo everyone, in response to what has gone before, I say "to each his own," meaning everyone has different tastes and interests, which can only be a good thing.
It's possible that when I buy 'Web User', 'Computer active' and 'Country Walking', people might well think "How boring", but to me they're interesting reading-matter.
Come on, tell us, what mags. are the rest of you buying regularly? We promise we won't laugh!

Hi.
Well I buy all sorts of mags. Essentials, SHE, New Woman, Red... to name but a few. I have been known to buy OK if there is something of interest in there. BUT I mostly flick through it in W H Smith, read the bits I am interested in and then walk away. I can't be doing with the constant rubbish about Jordan and that flamin Kerry Katonia and who she is marrying now. Grrrrr now that really gets on my nerves. What I hate is the pointless stuff about spotting someone eating a burger outside a shop ??? who cares.... but I do like to read interviews with certain people I take a slight interest in.
