Magazine Watch

Most days I’m too lazy to keep up with what everyone’s posting online, so I grab magazines from the newsstand instead. These are the ones that stuck.

Megan Fox gave Esquire an interview that Vice called their worst ever, shot by Sante D’Orazio. She was once the hottest thing alive—everyone’s moved on to Taylor Swift by now, different era entirely. But she still looks incredible. The interview apparently was a disaster, which somehow matters more than another perfect celebrity profile.

Bitch is a feminist pop culture magazine I found in New York and immediately kept a copy. This issue has cartoonist Gabrielle Bell, something on abuse in the gaming industry, American hipster culture. What’s good is they actually think about these topics instead of what German feminists do—screaming with a sledgehammer, destroying anything that even hints at sex or men.

Claudelle Deckert is everywhere if you watch German TV. Soaps, reality shows, crawling around in the jungle. Now she’s in Playboy with her tanned breasts. Whether you think they’re worth looking at is your call. I’ve seen better.

Fashion websites finally decided they need print magazines to be taken seriously, so High Snobiety is out with issue six. Larry Clark, Boys Noize, lots of photos and reportage. Fashion industry stuff mostly.

Forbes this month is depressing. All these people who became millionaires while you were still figuring out masturbation. David Karp, 26, invented Tumblr. Rachel Hoat loves the internet. Jennifer Fan does stocks. It’s a good way to feel completely useless.
