Most popular celebrity magazines in Australia
If you were to conduct a random survey today of the most popular top magazines by number of sales, whether in Australia or around the world, it should come as no surprise that a large proportion of the magazines at the top of your survey are the ones that cover celebrities or news relevant to celebrities. Let’s face it: celebrities, members of high society, and even overrated groupies make for a juicy read, especially when the news is outrageous (unfortunately). Everyone wants to know what Kylie Minogue has been up to, when the next season of the Neighbors series will premiere, and which potential blockbuster movie Russell Crowe will be featured in. Bottom line: celebrity news is big business and magazine editors know it. In Australia, various magazines have firmly established a place for themselves in the hearts and minds of the magazine-reading public.
OK magazine
OK is an international magazine, but it has a weekly release focused on Australia. Apart from Australia, the magazine has readers in 19 countries comprising more than 30 million readers. First launched in Australia in September 2004 as a monthly magazine, its rapid growth precipitated a shift to weekly. OK specializes in celebrity news and in particular has chosen to take a positive angle when it comes to celebrity news. For example, OK is famous for its celebrity wedding coverage and extensively covered the weddings of actors Michael Douglas and Catherine Zeta-Jones, musician Britney Spears and Kevin Federline, among many others. Your international profile is an advantage for someone looking for a mix of both Australian and international news.
