On a more worldly plane, Out is out with "Red Hot and Blue--Summer of Adele"--though a ticket scalper I ran into Sunday night outside the Beacon for the first of three incredible Elvis Costello shows was blown away that kids were spending $500 for tickets for her recent New York show (he didn't like the show even though she has a great voice, he said; we'd love to have seen it anyway).
Rolling Stone's getting a lot of predictable play on its "Monster Goddess--A wild week with Lady Gaga" feature, though we find the cover unattractive, if relatively toned-down. Of more interest here might be Tim Dickinson's special report, "Inside the Fox News Fear Factory." Inside, too, are "American Idol vs. The Voice--TV's biggest battle" and "The return of The Cars."
Spin goes with a Summer Live Guide, but the cover focuses on "The New Americana Revolution," picturing England's Mumford & Sons and showing "how a band of Brits are leading the charge." The ish also features The Felice Brothers, The Low Anthem and The Head and The Heart. And by the way, Mumford & Sons were just nominated for New/Emerging Artist and Duo/Group of the Year by the Americana Music Association, which announced the nominees for its 2011 Honors & Awards Show Monday in New York.

The cover of Health shows True Blood's Anna Paquin, and promises to reveal the fun way she stays so sleek (we gave in and peeked: It's boxing). Bazaar has a pretty pic to go with its "Britney's back" cover proclamation, though the issue's big theme is the new fashion season, for which it features a preview and unwary report.
People's got exclusive photos to go with its "Kim's Engaged!" thriller, with "all the details of the incredible proposal." Also new details of "Maria's torment"--Shriver, that is. But it's rather jarring to see a small "Heartbreak and Hope" rescue picture form Joplin, Mo., beneath a "Blake & Leo heating up!" pic.
Us give us its timely "Hot Bodies" special issue, with Kourtney Kardashian (thanks, Ali, for the ID!) and Carrie Underwood showing off their bikini bods on the cover. Sister Khloe's readily identified in a small pic on OK! USA's cover, with Biggest Loser winner Olivia's before-and-after photos documenting her shrinkage from 261 lbs to 132 accompanying the major feature. Star's got the inside scoop on Maria and "you're a pig!" Arnold's "final showdown." In Touch goes with New Jersey Housewives Teresa's shocking split and admission that "fame destroyed my family," though her cover pic with the kids shows them looking anything but destroyed. And just when you thought there could possibly be a week with no Jen, she shares the cover with Leo's latest, Blake Lively, and looks to be basking in the warmth of her "gushing" new man.
