June’s Cover of the Month
Closer, 23-29 May 2009
Chosen by Jane Johnson, Editorial Director, Fabulous Magazine & Deputy Editor, News of the World
"This is Closer doing what it does best - taking the big celeb story of the week and stamping its mark on it.
Jordan and Pete are heartland territory for Closer and the lines - 'She saw a divorce lawyer A YEAR AGO' and 'She taunted him with other men' - hit the mark.
Their human interest gets to the heart of the big social trends. And 'Pregnant at 15 - now I've had 7 babies in 9 years' doesn't disappoint.
Good on editor Lisa Burrow for understanding her market so brilliantly and hitting them with the stories they simply have to read."
