NW (magazine)
NW (New Weekly) magazine is a weekly magazine (typically 110 pages) published in Australia that offers articles about media celebrities, Hollywood gossip, clothing, makeup, dieting, entertainment, and people in crime. It has an irreverent tongue-in-cheek tone. The current editor is Zoë Barnes (Amy Sinclair is on maternity leave).
Typical articles include:
- Who may or not be pregnant based on 'baby bumps' or photographs of people holding their stomachs in a certain way
- Celebrities diets, who is losing weight and who is gaining
- Stars without makeup, Stars with too much makeup
- Stars with cellulite
- Who is planning 'secret' weddings, or secret divorce agreements
- Who is dating who (or maybe that should be whom, or dating both who and whom)
- Which stars are currently suffering from anorexia
- Bikini Bodies
Current stars and celebrites in the magazine frequently include:
- Britney Spears
- Paris Hilton and her latest
- Nick Lachey
- Jessica Simpson
- Jennifer Aniston
- Brad Pitt
- Angelina Jolie
- Nicole Richie
- Mischa Barton
- Nicole Kidman
- Courtney Love
- Cameron Diaz
NW magazine can be used to track the lifestyles of famous celebrites, it is often humorous to read old copies from a few years previous, and see who is "in", who is "out", and which "healthy" relationship is doomed to failure 2 months later.
The magazine also includes a gloriously large crossword puzzle ("Crozzle") that takes many hours to complete (if at all), with a $1000 price draw.
