It also features movie and music reviews, TV listings and major celebrity interviews.

A series of revamps quickly repositioned the magazine as a less serious, more gossip-oriented magazine aimed at women, and circulation quickly grew. A series of high-profile celebrity relationships, such as Jennifer Aniston and Brad Pitt provided ample material, while reality shows such as ''Big Brother (UK), Big Brother'' and ''Pop Idol'' grew popular at just the right time to help fill pages.
