 Nobody claimes this is rocket science... September 9, 2004

... but it sure is fun to read. US magazine is by far the best of its genre; I consider PEOPLE, STAR, and IN TOUCH vastly inferior. US is unique; my favorite section, one that another Amazon reviewer happened to mention they hated, is called "Stars: They're Just Like US". Yes, we know that the rich and famous eat, drink, shop and get toilet paper stuck on their shoes-- like the average person. But how much more fun is it to see Cameron Diaz with food in her teeth, Jessica Simpson lunching with a girlfriend, or Keaneau Reeves using a payphone (and, gasp!, not a cell).
US was the orginal magazine to bring us the stars in a new light -- now, IN TOUCH and STAR are rushing to do the same. But the first is always the best -- US weekly makes reading their magazine a guilty pleasure!

I have been subscribing to US Weekly for about a year and a half. In that time, I have never seen an issue without several pages of Jessica Simpson. I have to wonder; does Jessica donate money to this magazine? She seems to dominate the whole magazine, each and every week.
I won't be renewing my subscription. I'm tired of Jessica and the untruths that US Weekly supplies.

When gossip and fluff is your bread and butter, you should stick to knitting and not attempt political advocacy. The hits on Sarah Palin were a pathetic attempt to harm the McCain campaign.

US Magazine is a cross between People, Entertainment Weekly, and any of the tabloids, like the Enquirer. The photos are wonderful and vivid. Some of the articles are to be taken with a grain of salt, like a tabloid, but many of them are the same sort of true stories you would find in a "respectable" magazine such as Entertainment Weekly or People. It has some of the very latest gossip in Hollywood, and it's just a really fun, lighthearted read!

This is great to read at any time. You know life gets hard sometimes and its good to point and laugh about those rich and snobby folks and celebrities you love to hate. I know you'll feel bad about being all up in others business but its ok really, you paid for it so in this case its allowed. You know you love to hear all the gossip about the rich and famous. So pick this magazine up and have a good time.In my family we actually fight over who can open it up first and read all the gossip.
