Hello! Reviews

I love all kinds of trashy magazines, from Love It! to Glamour, whether that's for the comedy value alone or interesting stories and discussion. However, a few weeks ago I noticed that Hello was on sale for just £1. I never normally buy it as I think it's too expensive, so I picked it up thinking it would make a nice change. A couple of ...  Read the complete review

One day I'll understand the appeal of Hello, its basically a magazine ofr people window shopping on the rich and famous' private lives and for me is totally pointless. Hello has been around for about 10 years or so and is genuinely a market leader, indeed its more a market definer spawning a huge range of imitators like Ok and the ...  Read the complete review

Hello magazine is a weekly mag that focuses on celebrity news and gossip. It's a mag my mum often buys, and when I am at her house and there's nothing else around I will pick it up. The magazine is very visual, and focuses mostly on pictures rather than text. It's big and glossy, and is just like a photo album. Even the regular sections ...  Read the complete review

If you are in a dentist surgery or waiting at the opticians or dentists, pick this up - it's a very light read, in fact there is,compared to most magazines, very little to read- it is mainly pictures- and I have to say top quality photography. Now to the confession, I am not into celebrity gossip and news. I love reading, but with all the books ...  Read the complete review

I can remember the first ever `Hello` magazine that I ever bought as if it were yesterday, my GP was getting remarried to an actress and they had sold their story and photographs to the glossy magazine. The local newsagents cant have known what had hit them that week. The GP was a well respected member of the community and everyone wanted to see ...  Read the complete review

'Welcome to my gracious home' hmmmm....do you actually live there Mr/Mrs Celebrity? Large format weekly glossy magazine intended to make you jealous and/or let you in to the celeb private world you only get to see when they get a big cheque. Hello is pretty much beyond parody, various celebrities drape themselves across ...  Read the complete review

As I have stated in my other reviews, I am a bit of a nosy parker and I love looking at what is going on in other peoples lives. Why? No other reason then because I love people watching. Looking at what others are doing, how others live their life. Everyone is different. This also includes celebrities. I am not a huge fan of the news, but, ...  Read the complete review

I've never bought a copy of HELLO! magazine before, merely flicked through it at the hospital but I was one of the suckers who wanted to see the pics of Bradgelinas new babies which HELLO! had spent millions of pounds to publish. HELLO! amazingly has a readership of almost 400 000 copies per week of their glossy magazine which normally ...  Read the complete review

There is one phenomenon which grew in enormous leaps in the 1990s. It is the cult of celebrity. We have, so we are led to believe, developed such an insatiable appetite for news of celebrity lifestyles and royal minutiae that an entire industry has been built. Journalists, photographers and publishers compete to find stories about these ...  Read the complete review

when younger HELLOused to glisten on the newsaagents shelf like baby oil on a chippendale. Withit's glossy thick paper it held so much appeal to ten year old me. I viewed it as a glamourous grown up magazine, i thought is bound to be amazing after seeing the champagne luch lifestyles eddie and pats dah-ling indulged in on a day to day basis as ...  Read the complete review

Hello has long been an institution in publishing providing a ready source of money for celebrities wanting to cash on on their wedding / birthday/ birth of children/ barmithza (excuse spelling, divorces and probably funerals if the purse strings will stretch that far. For me it is one of those magazines that you pick up in the doctors ...  Read the complete review

Hello! Magazine - Who on earth buys this dross? "Leading sportsmen and women rubbed shoulders with a host of glamorous celebrities at this year's Laureus World Sports Awards in Monte Carlo, but it was Catherine Zeta Jones who undeniably stole the show. Looking every inch the Hollywood superstar, she set flashbulbs popping as she ...  Read the complete review

****Update at the bottom of this op!**** It's a rainy Saturday afternoon - the rugby has finished, the pub has quietened down and in my post alcoholic haze I bought a copy of Hello on the way home as it has vouchers for a free newspaper every day for the next week and two bars of chocolate stuck on the front. Baragain I thought!! ...  Read the complete review

I’m against these new women’s magazines. This is because of three reasons, the first being their pointless names. I think the people who came up the names for these magazines, didn’t really come up with them at all. How I see it is they recorded or wrote down a conversation, randomly picked a word and BOOM! Now you’ve got ...  Read the complete review

How do I describe Hello! magazine? It is a celebrity magazine, which gives us an insight into the lives, loves and homes and the rich, and famous, but what I have noticed is that it is more of the rich and less of the famous. The current issue has a picture of Michael Jackson at Uri Geller's wedding blessing on the front, and Mr ...  Read the complete review

Are you one of those people who sit by their window twitching their curtains to see what your neighbours are doing? Do you love to gossip over the fence about other people's lives and spread malicious rumours? Do you really need to get a life? If the answer is yes to any or all of the above then you will love Hello magazine. ...  Read the complete review

Being a guy, I don't buy women's mags but a friends' wife does and I do have some journalistic background. this magazine is absolute trash (or some other term which is a lot stronger, which is not for publication!). It's contents and features are mindless pap and they seem hell bent on sinking to new lows, signing exclusive deals ...  Read the complete review

couple of months ago i purchased this magazine and was amazed at the amount of lies that was in one particular artical, regarding Celine Dions pregnancy. For starters they got her age completely wrong! and then contradicted themselves by putting a wrong date of birth! which didnt add up!! Then they gave quotations from "family friends" ...  Read the complete review

Sorry another one I dont like that much - falls pretty much into the same catagory as OK which fell into the catagory of 'takes slightly longer to read than Bella and Take a Break - but then again so does a packet of crisps!' Why are we so interested in anyone famous? Hello is just full of saddos which makes those who read it - ...  Read the complete review

Magazines would blame it on the paparizzi when things are put in the spotlight about their lack of respect for the privacy and freedom of others. Yet, they are the ones willing to publish something that may incriminate or embarrass another member of the public. It is their responsibility also. I don't understand why people are ...  Read the complete review
