Taylor Swift blamed for poor sales
Taylor Swift
Taylor Swift’s appearance on magazine covers in the US has been blamed for poor sales, a new report claims. Research from America’s Audit Bureau of Circulations show Swift was on the cover of Elle magazine’s worst selling issue of the year, which sold 60,000 copies less than their average issue. While her appearances on Glamour and Marie Claire fared little better as her covers were those magazines’ second and third worst selling issues of the year, respectively.
“Taylor Swift doesn’t create the same kind of narrative that people love to follow, like say, Kim Kardashian,” a US pop culture expert told Showbiz Spy. “The days of being a nice person and just looking pretty on cover are behind us.”
While the news was bad for Swift, figures showed there was no doubt 2010 was Lady Gaga’s year. She featured on Rolling Stone’s best selling issue of the year, selling three times better than average. And was also on the cover of Cosmopolitan’s best-selling issue of the year, and sold exceptionally well for Vanity Fair and for Elle.
