This is an article on “N-Dubz” from the Top of the Pops magazine. The main colours used on the page are red and pink wich appeal to the target audience of young girls. The launguage used is very informal and slang is used; “just leave her alone, init”. The format is very blatant; questions are highlighted with bold red writing and awnsers from each of the band members are listed below, this simplicity appeals to the young audience. Additonally there are quite a lot of pictures on the pages which has a simmilar appeal. There are several puffs on the page with lures for example: “Dappy has the most bizzare crushes” and “There are ways you can avoid drama”. These quotes tie in with the gossipy, chatty brand identity of the magazine, and attmept to hook readers in to reading the article. Questions are asked that refrence other media that the audience are familiar with; “Are you team Edward or team Jacob?”, “Is Lady Gaga really a man?” Tese references to popular culture appeal to the audience as they are probably fans of; in this example “Lady Gaga” or “Twilight” and want to hear other celebrities insights.
