If Angie's Face Is On It, It Will Be Purchased

Forbes Magazine just came out with an interesting list. What celebs sell the most mags? Turns out that the top five is a bit surprising. No Britney Spears... but her sister Jamie Lynn came in at fourth place! Can you believe it?

Angelina Jolie takes the number one spot while Jennifer Aniston trails in second place. Heath Ledger snags third leaving Nicole Richie to round out the top five.

I have no problem with shopping and buying things. I have just never felt the need to buy gossip mags. I read an actual book on planes and get my gossip fill on the internet. There have only been a handful of times I did buy People. One was after 911 and the other was their big celebrity wedding issue. My daughter was planning her wedding at the time and we were looking at dress styles. Have NEVER bought it for any certain celebrity.

None of the celebs mentioned spur me on to buy a magazine (or anything for that matter). I'm so tired of Angelina trotting out her brood for a little publicity. It's one thing if you want to whore yourself out to the media, but your kids? Wait til they're older.

The paps are difficult to avoid so it's impossible to control images of your kids being taken *that* way -- but doing articles about how wonderful you are and showcasing the kids in staged photoshoots (even if it is for charity), it's tacky. losethatgirl blog

There she goes again, she's such a narcissist. Me, me, me. You know the reason she does all those humanitarian deeds across the world is so that the spotlight shines on her. She can do plenty behind the scenes but that doesn't interest her. Further, whenever there is some gossip rag talking about how her marriage is on the rocks, there she comes out with a cover and with her robotic husband Brad talking about how great everything is. Her manic sense of urgency, manic need to adopt and have children speaks to some dark truths that she is getting away from. Finally her anorexia fits perfectly into the profile as well. We'll see what happens 20 years from now.

I feel sorry for your patients if infact you are a psyco. Oh and they are NOT married...DUH! How is she being narcissist? because Forbes rated her the #1 selling celeb.? hu? Oh let me guess she must've paid them under the table, riiiiiiiight!

looks like you need some counceling of your own lady.

I really like this pic of her, it's very sweet. That said, I don't ever buy these magazines, and even in a waiting room or something, I wouldn't pick one up to read. I find the Jolie-Pitt family very strange, but I do wish the best for them. I think they have tried to help a lot of people who need it, and although I don't agree with some past morals of theirs, I think they've redeemed themselves and everyone has moved on.

Hentai Lover, I'll respond to your comments when you learn to spell.

Yeah, whatever my spelling is just fine oh is it psycHo that got you so upset? I guess that's all you have, just proves that you need counseling. It's a beautiful sunny day here so I'm going out to enjoy it. You can baste in your ugly world....

It seems to me the "public" has little choice as most of the mags ASSUME that everyone is very interested in certain celebrities, therefore they stick their faces on the covers. Frankly....I doubt they(the public) are. In this time of critical financial interests, it seems sadly irresponsible of most mags to devote their covers to those previledged few that get enormous amounts of money for PLAY ACTING!!

I feel bad for Angelina. Brad Pitt is using her and her children to sell this idea of him being a photographer. He is sick!

Brad Pitt went to college to be a photographer; I think he was one class short of graduating when he got the chance to be in a film and picked that over finishing college.

I'm not a fan of his, and I don't like Angie, but this is a beautiful picture. It isn't staged or airbrushed.

Forbes magazine is a joke. Well, ever since they touted Merrill Lynch right before it's meltdown. They now have zero credibility. As for Jolie, I find it strange that she likes talking about their private life; doesn't she know that her celebrity makes it hard for the public to see her as a serious actress. She has talent and she has all the precursor last year for Oscar and yet, she was snubbed. As for Aniston, I wish she could get her act together and focus on her career. I really wanted a Kidman-like movie career for her and then, she will fall in love and have a baby (Im weird, lol).

Well IMO, if Angelinas name is on it, magazine or movie, I deliberately won't see it or read it...she seems to hate America, she doesn't want to live here, or have her bio kids here, or adopt from here, so shes not getting one penny of my money, that includes Brad Pitt, because he has turned into her clone.

If I had time, I'd totally buy it and sit down to read it! W magazine is great. She looks amazing...wish I could look so great nursing my little one! Why is thier movement (granted its frequent) from place to place considered to be a publicity stunt? I mean, they have to leave the house at some point and the paps are camped out waiting for them 'cause its a livelihood. Just wondering...

When I was making more money and had less bills to pay I used to buy People Magazine and US on a fairly regular basis. I have never purchased one copy of National Enquirer or Star, although if they were free I would read them-- and I was never really into any of the other many magazines that are on display at the checkout counters. I don't even buy a TV guide anymore. I get my daily fix of gossip from blogs. I like to think I am saving a tree by not purchasing paper that is going to end up in the recycling bin anyway.

Anonymus Oct 12, 2008 @ 04:25 am - Why do you comment on a post with Angelina's face on it then if you deliberately don't buy anything with her face on it? LOL

Katerina Katerina said:

OMG ! Why do celebrities make a big deal on keeping their private lives private AND then you have people like the jolie-pitts showing off their private collection of photos...what a contradication ! The photos might be nice BUT they should be for the family & NOT the public...gee, I think celebrities are alittle whacky !!!

Maybe this is another way Brad Pitt keeps rubbing Jennifer Aniston's face in his happiness...maybe Jennifer was right, Brad must be missing a sensivity gene because he & Angie sure like talking & showing everyone their "happiness"...

If they did it based on existing data, then Britney's selling value got diluted as her situation got sadder and sadder, certainly. If they want to do a proper analysis, it'd probably help to compare sales and their connection to certain stories. Google has a great function--you can see the frequency of certain searches over time.
