OK! MAGAZINE’S COVER SAYS JEN ANISTON & ORLANDO BLOOM ARE “MORE THAN JUST FRIENDS”

It’s time for an exciting episode of inside OK Magazine’s cover meeting!
EIC: What should we do this week OK gang?
Junior Editor: How bout Britney and Kevin getting back together?
EIC: Hmmm. We caught a lot of slack for using that old Britney picture last week. I think we better stay away from Britney for at least a week. Any other ideas?

Senior Editor: What about Jen. I’ve been wondering why she hasn’t found a man.
EIC: Me too! You know Jen and Orlando have had some “flirty nights.” A few weeks ago they were at some benefit. Let’s dig up those pictures and go for a cover. America loves Jen and would love to see her with a hottie like Orlando bloom.
OK Team: Hooray!
EIC: Now what should be our cover line?
Creative Director: What do you think of “Looking for Love in All the Wrong Places.”
EIC: No, no, no! It needs to be tighter and it needs to have the word friend in it. Afterall, Americans see Jen as their favorite “friend.” Get it!
OK Team: Yes! (Followed by loud applause!)
EIC: What about “MORE THAN JUST FRIENDS!”
OK Team: Everyone gets up and screams at the top of their lungs. “Yes!” (It’s almost like a scene from that hair commercial.)
Is this how OK came up with this horrific cover? I can’t be certain but this cover is TERRIBLE.
The main line “MORE THAN JUST FRIENDS” is cheezy and made me partially puke in my mouth. Any reference to Jen Aniston and ‘Friends’ AT THIS POINT IN TIME is way too dated.
Plus, I don’t believe that Jen and Orlando are a couple or will ever be a couple. Is it just me or does Jen look like his older sister or dare I say his mother?
Let’s move to Jamie Lynn’s pregnant prom night. Who selected this photo of Jamie Lynn? It’s way off the mark. At least show the poor girl in a dress.
Bottom Line: Another issue for OK that will miss its rate base! Mark Pasetsky’s Cover Awards » OK! MAGAZINE’S COVER SAYS JEN ANISTON & ORLANDO BLOOM ARE “MORE THAN JUST FRIENDS”
NATIONAL ENQUIRER COVER SAYS “DR PHIL’S WIFE WALKS OUT”

I say what took you so long Robin?
Dr. Phil seems to be one of those big hypocrites. He acts like he’s the perfect husband — we’ve all seen him gratuitiously walk Robin off the show! But he seems like could be be a total pain in the ass to live with. Don’t you think?
Do I believe this cover to be 100 percent true? Not really. But it is entertaining.
Why you ask?
It’s the famous “WALK OUT” line. This could be one of a hundred different things. Robin could have left for work, went to the gym or simply left to get some fresh air. It doesn’t mean she’s walked out for good.
In other news that pregnant man can’t get a main cover story and I don’t understand why??? This week the National Enquirer is reporting that he tried to jumped off a building! Why isn’t this the cover?
And you have to hand it to the National Enquirer to have the last pictures of Charlton Heston. I have to admit that I immediately turned to that story to see what they looked like.
Bottom Line: Not a bad week for the National Enquirer Mark Pasetsky’s Cover Awards » NATIONAL ENQUIRER COVER SAYS “DR PHIL’S WIFE WALKS OUT”
