WHO IS THE QUEEN OF THE TABLOIDS?

tabloid-wars.jpg

This one might surprise you.

The people over at Forbes set out on a mission to find the top-selling celeb face. They evaluated the sales of the six leading celebrity weeklies– People, Star, US Weekly, In Touch Weekly, Life & Style and OK!–over a six-month period ending June 30.

And who came out on top as the top seller was? None other than Jennifer Aniston, of course. Appearing on every title except for Brangelina-obsessed In Touch at least once during the time period, her face collectively sold more than 5 million copies.

What’s more? The biggest disappointment at the newsstand turned out to be Britney Spears. While she was the most popular cover choice - with 18 in six months - Brit’s issues sold well below average.

How fitting.

    i love JA. i’ve bought exactly 5 magazines in the past 3 years. 2 of them were because JA was on the cover and giving an interview. (one was the suri edition of VF and the other 2 were yoga magazines, in case you were wondering ;O)

    This shows how Britney doesn’t sell anymore.

    I’m surprised! I really would have thought it would have been Britney, Lindsay, Paris or one of the girls that gets into trouble or something scandalous every week! It’s good to see a ‘nice’ girl got most of the attention. I love Jen!

    I love Jennifer Aniston and it is sad that she is the “queen” because she has done nothing to deserve it (for lack of a better word). She is not out whoring or clubbing so they should just leave her alone.

    That’s fine, but the king of the tabloids will always be Batboy.
