Article/Double page spread analysis

The choice of celebrity which featured suggests that the target audience for the article is older teenagers going on to young adults. The target audience seem to be people who are interested in the celebrity’s life, and who want to know more about them. The language used is quite formal but it can still be read and still keeps the teenagers engaged and interested. This quote will show the style of the magazine. ‘Unflappable professionalism perhaps explain the misapprehension that Diane is almost remotely, clinically beautiful’. The background colour is whitish, creamish. This does not take attention off the model in fact it brings more attention to her. The style of text is standard and is written in black. Seven and a halve of the double page spread layout is filled with the celebrities pictures. There is three and a half of text in the double page spread layout. The tone of the magazine is quite friendly. It seems as if the celebrity is comfortable in telling her audience about the life. She tells some personal things to her audience. It seems as if the reader is a friend of the celebrity, and is actually talking to her. The celebrity seems relaxed and has a gentle approach in answering the questions. The celebrity is presented as an independent woman who likes to pose and is definitely not camera shy. She has clearly got experience in modelling. She is a model and an actress. The style of the article of the celebrity does match the style of the front cover because on the front cover there is a model and she is posing with fashionable clothes she is a fashionista. Also in the article the celebrity is posing in fashionable clothes. The article does demand a little prior knowledge to read the article because you need to know about the celebrity to want to read the article and understand it. However the celebrity does say things about herself which educates the readers and some people will be able to read the article and understand it fully.
