My first reaction.

Great cover.  And, that’s the most important reaction — especially when you’re selling on the newsstand.

It’s a nice surprise to see Nicole Richie and pregnant again no less.  Plus, Harlow is absolutely adorable. 

Moving to Katie Holmes.  Another strong story.   Tomkat is back in the news and everybody is talking about them so this makes sense as a large inset.  I can’t wait to see the photos.

But, here’s my issue with the cover.

Look at the last line of the Nicole Richie story – boy…girl…or both (twins run in the family).  As a reader, I’m totally thrown off by this and I’m not totally believing the story.

Bottom Line: The good news is that many readers don’t read the last line in the dek.
