What do you think of fashion magazines?

Women's fashion's magazines: I like reading them on airplanes cause they don't really require a lot of concentration, and they're better on an airplane than a novel because I don't have the concentration when I'm flying for twelve hours to concentrate on a novel so women's fashions magazines are sort of chewing gum for the mind, excellent on a long, long flight.

Fashion magazines. I don't pay attention to them at all. I rarely ever read magazines of any type so fashion is maybe at the bottom of my list of magazines that I would even be interested in.

I think fashion magaizines are a bad idea. I think they show an image of women that the average woman maybe can't emulate and lead to a lot of unhappiness. I've actually appeared in Cosmopolitan, UK. I was in central London and a woman came up to me and asked me some opinions about relationships and took my photograph and a month later I was in the magazine.

Women's fashion magazines - I often buy magazines just to have a look but I find that the clothes that they wear are kind of extreme, and for example, someone like Paris Hilton who was recently in the fashion magazines a lot, that the clothes that she wears, a lot of people, a lot of teenages, 20 year-olds around my age, will not wear outside.

I like fashion magazines but I try not to put my body image into the way their body image is, and that's a little hard. I try not to pay attention too much to that. I do like looking at them just because they're fun to look at the articles are good.

I think fashion magazines are incredibly stupid. The models always just look ridiculous. They're always in some special pose in some special situation and the clothes that they wear, [bad word] on, like have you ever seen anybody wear the clothes you see in a fashion magazine, men's or women's out in public. It's pretty rare, so yeah, I think fashion magazines, for the most part, are pretty ridiculous.
