My boyfriend's Pop subscribes to a lot of magazines. He saves some issues of some magazines because they may be worth something someday. Other issues, he comes home only only to ask, "Is this all I got in the mail today?" Those magazines end up in the trash heap.
Unfortunately, the "Interview" magazines I've read in the months I've lived here have seen their noble deaths in the garbage pile. Every month is the same old thing. Models and some celebrities interview other celebrities and take pictures of them. But who are these celebrities, really? I mean, besides the 20 famous people who happen to have a movie coming out, or soon to be coming out.
Posterity Factor:
Once, there was an episode worth keeping, though. Celebrities and their pets. However, I found it a spacesaver to just cut out the pictures of the animals with a boxcutter, and toss the other 130 pages of stuff which would only be dignified if no one else read it. I wanted to save it in its entirety, but why should I feel that celebrities deserve to keep monkeys when the average citizen doesn't? Does this make them seem any more normal than the average person?
Quality of Information in Comparison:
These are the same old stories, opinions, and pictures of the same old people I don't really care to know about. I give it credit for being a bit newer in information than Entertainment Weekly which stretches one story over a period of two years, and always arrives right after I heard of something in the news. At least it does not have corrections in every issue like EW, which seems like bad journalism.
Types of Magazines You Can Turn To & Overall:
If you'd like to know the truth, I commend Andy Warhol for his good premise/idea. However, in this age, "Interview" seems like a mixture of ROLLING STONE and VANITY FAIR. Placing the camera and pen in the hands of the modern corporate world whose [probably] main motivation is to get you to think, "Gee, Jennifer Love Hewitt is so down to earth! I want to see her next movie!" is just too palpable for me. It seems like Interview's stones are just bouncing along the road, and a rating of 2 stars is hardly a "FAIR" grade in my opinion.
