Richie beats Aguilera in magazine sales

By Alexandra Heilbron on March 4, 2008 | 9 Comments


Nicole Richie People coverBoth Nicole Richie and Christina Aguilera appeared on separate covers of People magazine with their new babies, but while Richie’s edition is estimated to sell more than 1.8 million copies, the issue featuring Aguilera and son Max looks as if it will fall far short of that mark. An industry insider suggested there was more interest in Richie’s daughter Harlow because Richie has a bigger fan base, telling MSNBC: “There’s a greater element of curiosity with Nicole. She’s gone public about being a heroin addict. Her boyfriend is covered in tattoos. By default, she’s got the more interesting baby. People want to see how she settles down. They want to see what kind of baby someone with her background has.” The source added: “Christina historically doesn’t do that well on covers,” noting the unimpressive sales of her wedding photo edition of OK! and her naked photo shoot in Marie Claire.

    I guess this is the newest form of in-your-face with shit that we don’t need to know about. People that buy into this crap are responsible for the rest of us having to put up with it…. If you see someone buying this at the supermarket, hit them with the heaviest article in your shopping cart…..

    Only problem with hitting them with the heaviest item is in most cases it will be the holliday edition of the Enquirer.

    But yes this is as informative as mud.

    Aguilera’s fifteen minutes are just about up; Nicole is a true superstar.

    Yeah, I was asleep at 1:30am on the 7th. So, as I’m sure everyone has already figured out, that was double again. Time to go sleepy-bye double.
