Brangelina Twins Sell Big!

Brangelina Twins Sell Big!

This just in from Women’s Wear Daily! Not surprisingly, the exclusive photos of Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie’s newborn twins, Knox Leon and Vivienne Marcheline, sold big. How big? 2.6 million copies big!

According to the trade journal, “The issue is the biggest seller in seven years, and is the fourth highest newsstand seller in the magazine’s 35-year history, behind the Sept. 11 issue (4.1 million single copies), the issue covering Princess Diana’s death (3 million) and the one covering the death of John F. Kennedy Jr. (2.8 million). The June 19, 2006 issue with the exclusive baby pictures of Brad and Angelina’s first daughter, Shiloh, moved 2.2 million newsstand copies (perhaps the extra Pitt-Jolie baby provided a bigger draw this time).”

What will happen if Brad & Angie have triplets? To read the full report, visit WWD.com.

By the way, does anyone have the link to that photo where Brad and Jen are smoking at an outdoor table looking bored as all get out? I’d like to share that witha friend and I can’t find it with a Google search.

Thanks!

Wow. Jared, that was fast! Thanks for the quick response to the e-mail! Thank you for the new positive thread.

Good morning, JP fans! Well, what happened to that article about the twins’ People mag not doing well? Ha ha ha! Such liars, who would write anything, even if it was untrue, just to put the JPs down. Jealousy is such a beeyotch, ain’t it?

A total of 2.6 million copies. That’s how many newsstand issues of People with the exclusive photos of Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie’s newborn twins, Knox Leon and Vivienne Marcheline, have sold, according to sources close to the magazine, citing early sales estimates for the issue. People and Hello reportedly snatched up the exclusive baby photos for a wallet-busting $14 million, the cost split between the two in some manner. People scored the domestic rights for the images; Hello bought the international ones.

The issue is the biggest seller in seven years, and is the fourth highest newsstand seller in the magazine’s 35-year history, behind the Sept. 11 issue (4.1 million single copies), the issue covering Princess Diana’s death (3 million) and the one covering the death of John F. Kennedy Jr. (2.8 million). The June 19, 2006 issue with the exclusive baby pictures of Brad and Angelina’s first daughter, Shiloh, moved 2.2 million newsstand copies (perhaps the extra Pitt-Jolie baby provided a bigger draw this time).]

The baby photos also helped People extend its online reach to record levels. People.com recorded a record 6 million unique visitors for the first 24 hours the cover went online. Comparatively, people.com usually averages around 8.8 million uniques a month, according to figures from Comscore Media Metrix. What will happen if Pitt and Jolie have triplets?

People clearly wanted to see the offspring of two gorgeous people knowing that Brad and Ange’s hotness is electrifying.

Actually Helena, that is good. The most well known and wealthiest magazine like Vogue, average about 1 million a year. People has doubled that even more so and you better believe their advertisers paid probably double just to get into that issue. The online viewership doesn’t hurt either.

It did sell, but People did not get the return on their investment, they did not recoup the 14 million dollars paid, this magazine was on the shelf two days early and stayed on the shelf for three weeks, so actually this was not as much of a success as the folks at People were hoping for.

I looked at the pictures and then I put it right back on the shelf. I would never spend my money on such useless crap.
