Three Magazines!

My proof of life magazines

Magazines + Descriptions

1. Life magazine – “The King Lives On: Remembering Elvis Presley”
This issue focuses on Elvis Presley and his legacy. It’s very visual and photo-heavy, with a lot of archival images and storytelling about his life, influence, and cultural impact. LIFE is known for photojournalism, so the storytelling is done a lot through images rather than just text.

2. National Enquirer – “Hilary’s Dirty Dossier”
This is a tabloid-style magazine that focuses on celebrity gossip, scandals, and dramatic headlines. It’s very sensationalized and designed to grab attention quickly, with short articles and bold claims.

3. Woman’s World – January 19, 2026 issue
This magazine targets a female audience and includes lifestyle content like health tips, recipes, human-interest stories, and shopping ideas. It feels very practical and easy to read.

It was interesting to see how different each magazine was — LIFE felt more serious and historical, National Enquirer was super dramatic, and Woman’s World was more practical and everyday-focused.
