The title of the magazine is top of the pops. I think they have chosen this title because of the various associations it brings, the obvious one being with the television programme of the same name. This lets the audience know what the magazine is about, popular music, straight away and gives them an immediate idea of the magazine from just the title. The main flash and main sells are all written in bold fairly common fonts and are all easy to read.
The title is written in the same style as the television programme which again sparks the assosciation between the programme and the magazine.
The title is written in pink and is glittery which would appeal to the readership , mainly girls aged 11-15, and would also give an impression of glamour. The colour scheme is mainly purple pink and yellow which are all quite feminine colours which woudl again appeal to the young female readership. There is also black and white text which is used to contrast against the different backgrounds and catch the buyers attention.
There is a number (56) written on the front cover in large bold letters, this draws the attention of the buyer and makes them want to know more. It also uses personal language to adress the reader "you're a star". It also uses language and phrases to draw the reader in and make them interested "love secrets exposed!"
The image on the front is very bright and all the people in it look happy and attractive. They are all smiling and looking at the camera. It is a posed shot with two boys and two girls from high school musical. These stars are very well known all over the world.
It has a main flash which directly addresses the readers "you're a star!" which would capture the attention of potential buyers.
It has a barcode and a date that it was released on the cover.
