PEOPLE talk?


The entertainment industry is one of the biggest because it has so many different layers (kind of like an onion). It can include movies; fashion, beauty, sports, concerts, TV but one of the most profitable industries include all the tabloids. There are so many different magazines, which is probably why they are such a competitive industry. They are always trying to one up each other by containing “exclusive” stories; and don’t you love how these magazines are strategically placed at every checkout so that you begin to read the stories. (By reading the titles on the front page you are following with their call to action, they want you to read it so you will buy it, this strategy is not only effective but it actually works!) The most popular and reputable magazine is “PEOPLE”; this magazine is not just a gossip magazine they have issues directed towards specific issues and a special one for fashion. They carry the same strategy from the books to the Internet which makes provides consistency for their target market. They are heavily involved in the online world by creating many different social media pages and chat rooms to increase communication and buzz.

WEBSITE
PEOPLE has a very interactive website making it very easy for viewers to comment on every hot story, they also feature ‘tweets’ by celebrities and links to other blogs.

Legally they (Selena and the 20 year mother) are rapists, if they are having sex with a minor (Bieber--Not 18) and are considered pediohiles, it would be safer for Selena to not admit to having a love life with a minor...

It is interesting to see that on all their social media accounts they have the small post but they all link back to their main website. They want to entice people to come to their home page, which has all the information; it even includes current celebrity “tweets”. They do optimize on their social media however you are able to see a call to action. In this industry you want to use social media as a teaser, you want to get your viewers intrigued enough to get an online copy of the magazine or to buy it in store (even a subscription).

HALLOWEEEN!

Hey everyone!

Happy (early) Halloween!!! So I know that Halloween is tomorrow and many people (like myself) wait until last minute to come up with a costume, so to help you last minute people I am going to give you some ideas on what to dress up as!!

Celebrities love this time of year because they love being creative with their costume however you need to make sure that when you put your costume together you are being appropriate. When planning a costume you need to think of where you are going, your age (what is appropriate and what is not) and your morals. Costumes honestly do not have to cost an arm and a leg, you can make one with items you already own in your closet (At the end of the post I will give you a perfect costume idea)

This past week I was looking at past celebrity costumes and it was quite shocking to see what some people will wear! Here are some cool costumes and some real question marks.



Honestly I love Heidi Klum and her personality, she does not have to dress sexy to feel good about herself, and her Halloween costume speaks to that statement. Although I personally wear that costume I love how it shows here creative personality and she is a mother so she does need to watch out for what she wears because of the press and media. However this costume is a for sure thumbs up!!! GOOD JOB HEIDI!




SUPERHERO's in DA building!!!! @kimkardashian
When I saw this costume that Kim K. wore yesterday for her Halloween party I was so jealous I have never thought about it! Kim and Jonathan Cheban really showed their 'comic' side and its both sexy and festive. L-O-V-E it!!


Assholes in vegas at their finest
WOWW...so this takes horrible to a new level! So I understand how made costumes...however I am pretty sure that is not what a cat wears! Does Snookie and her friend know that you actually have to dress up for Halloween? Thumbs DOWN!!!


Now that you saw some good and some bad Halloween costume here is a short video on how to make your own quick Halloween costume so you can save a few bucks this Halloween and look like this!!


RISKY BUSINESS!!





Post your comments and what costumes you like as well as tips to your Halloween costume for tomorrow!! Hope everyone has a safe and Happy Halloween!! Eat LOTS of chocolate!!

10 things you HAVE to know before you go out


Hello Everyone,
With all the Lindsay Lohans, Brittney Spears, and Miley Cyrus’s in the news I would like to discuss the “To Do List” for when you are going out for a night on the town. Now I chose this because I am studying Public Relations and I hope to be involved with the communication side of a company. After hearing over and over again about celebrities and their extravagant nights on the town I think it is time to discuss what is “really” appropriate so you don’t accidently replicate any of their actions, because in reality we are not on the Jersey Shore!
1. Underwear is IMPORTANT! There is no way that someone can forget to put one the most important items of clothing on, unless you are 2 years old you have no excuse.
2. If you just broke up DO NOT bring your cell phone! Everyone likes to say they are over the other person until you get a couple tequila shots in you and then everything spills and you make a complete idiot of yourself which then hits every TV station and news stand. Or in your case the dreaded…FACEBOOK!
3. Know your limit! Do not drink everything that is given to you at a bar, because that will then equal really unflattering pictures and poor decisions, try and drink water every so often.
4. Shoes shouldn’t kill you! Yes, I know that those new Jimmy Choo shoes are amazing, but you have to walk in them all night to, and after a few drinks that walking will turn into stumbling which will then turn into a face plant.

5. What happens in Vegas does NOT stay in Vegas! For people to think that if you are going to a different country or city different rules apply, you are just living in a dream! Unfortunately pictures do surface as well as one-night stands and Vegas marriages. When you go out act like people are watching so you do not make any regrettable mistakes.

6. Dress Sexy but Classy! When you go out you want to look like yourself but a better more polished version of yourself so make sure that your outfit is appropriate. Most importantly make sure you outfits stays in the right places and you don’t have any “slips” (See rule #1)

7. Leave with who you came with! This is very important, you want to wake up and think about the great night you just had not the ‘mistake’ you just made. Make a pact with your friends that no matter how persuasive or intoxicated you may be, you will all go home together.

8. Floors are for dancing on, not tables! I know that it is more exciting to dance on a surface that is different from everyone else however not only do you look crazy but if the table breaks you will hurt yourself which could lead you to the hospital.

9. Fight free Night! It is so common for celebrities to get into fight at clubs and bars, everyone has been involved either directly or indirectly with this drama. When people drink excessively they become more vulnerable, in this state you become threatened really easily. If someone says something you don’t like or looks at you weird leave it alone, you will be causing unnecessary drama for yourself and the people you are with and you will save your night and possibly your face.

10.Have FUN! Last but certainly not least the most important rule is have fun, you only live once so live your life to the fullest and dance like no one else is watching ( but not to crazy or inappropriate, people do have cameras) Socializing is a great way to let loose and be yourself so just have fun!

“The way I see it, you should live everyday like it's your birthday” – Paris Hilton (Spoken like a true scholar)

I hope everyone enjoys my rules/ tips to have a safe and amazing night, what are your tips or rules!

Talk to you soon!!
