L- NME is well known for pushing limits on what is exceptable in society. They have used the red black and orange/yellow to create a eye catching rebelious cover which draws attention to the image as well as the fonts and colours. The fonts are different but the artists name and the text suggesting what her purpose is are different and stand out against the small texts and sub texts. The text ‘Kiss My Arse’ is very suggestive this could draw the audiences attention away from the naked image and towards why she wants people to kiss her arse. The image is a medium shot to show the artists pose which is turned from the camera this could be to tease the audience. The image isnt what the media would class as apporciate as the female artists isnt the typical skinny blonde you’d usually see she’s of bigger size and her tattoo and black hair show she doesn’t want to be like all the other girls. NME have used this image to show that they arent going to use the stereotype. The text is relevant to the image as she has lip marks on her bum cheek and the text sits just above her bum. The magazine also features a flash to indicate the free poster this could draw in a wider audience.
I-The publisher of this magazine is IPC Media. They also publish for TV Times, Pick Me Up, Marie Claire and a lot more. They publish different types of genres of magazine. They publish for a wide audience. From parents to gardeners and teenagers.
I-The genre of this magazine would fit with the target audience. Every issue is changed so whatever the artist is will depend on what type of audience will buy the magazine. So for this particular cover you’ll get fans of Beth Ditto or maybe ladies of a bigger nature who may think she’s an inspiration for getting her clothes off for the size she is and not caring that she isnt the stereotype.
A-The target audience for this magazine would be fans of Beth Ditto, women who are inspired by her for been a larger lady and not going with the stereotype. Other readers could include weekly reader of the magazine. Having a huge artist on the cover will be a selling point for the magazine as they will have a huge fan base making it a seller.
R-This cover would gain a lot of respect off larger women or may go the opposite way and get a lot of bad press for having this image.
