Pasetsky's Prediction
As you can see, multiple outlets reported that Angelina Jolie is pregnant but Jolie has not confirmed her pregnancy. I predict People Magazine will have her official confirmation in the new issue. Stay tuned!
Star Magazine Says "Yes It's True"
And Confirms Angies Pregnant with Twins!
Star Magazine broke the twins story on January 24, click here, and adds some new details, including Angie’s in-vitro ordeal. Plus, they add a nice emotional touch with the line “the night she told Brad: WE DID IT!” While I love the hot kiss photo as a main image, I believe the cover could have easily inset Angie looking pregnant (which is the full cover of OK! and Life & Style).
“What Mary-Kate’s Hiding” is a strong line and is exactly what the readers are asking! (Editor’s Note: This type of line is particularly tough to develop for celebrity weekly editors because it has to feel like a NEW story for at least a week after the magazine hits newsstands. I believe this line will hold up and is compelling at the same time! Good choice to use a photo of Mary-Kate in sunglasses!)
Life & Style Reports on Angelina's Dangerous Pregnancy…
And Wins “Most Emotional Celebrity Weekly Cover” of the Week!
Life & Style adds a dramatic twist to the Angie pregnancy story. You’ve probably noticed that OK! Magazine has the same side view photo of Angie. But what is different here is the placement of the headline “Dangerous Pregnancy.” While OK! covered up Angelina’s bump, Life & Style strategically placed the line above it. Life & Style also delivers a NEW detail on the story – cuz at this point I already know she’s pregnant!
What an emotional inset on Heath Ledger: “The Baby He Left Behind!” This could have been the full cover story! The picture of Matilda grabbing Heath’s leg is incredibly moving!
OK! Magazine says YES, ANGIE'S PREGNANT
I’m looking forward to seeing the inside story on why Mary-Kate’s still partying! It’s something that the reader must be thinking about — especially since Heath Ledger tragically passed away in her apartment!
Pasetsky's Predictions
On Monday, I introduced my new column “Pasetsky’s Predictions” where I attempt to call the covers of the major celebrity glossies. To see if the magazine’s editors took my advice, check out the bolded comments after the jump.
