British teenage magazines
About half of British young people aged 12 to 16 read teenage magazines! Two of the most popular magazines for girls are “Sugar” and “Bliss”. They have glossy, colourful covers and include beauty and fashion, celebrity gossip, real life stories, horoscopes, quizzes and problem pages.
Of course, boys don’t usually find these magazines very interesting. Instead, they buy music magazines like “NME” or magazines about sport, like “Shoot” or “Match”.
Usually, teenage magazines contain a lot of language that only teenage use! They might use ‘celeb’ instead of celebrity, for example, or ‘fave’ instead of favourite. This makes the magazines more attractive to teenagers and easier to understand.
