Yes, it's Thursday. But the magazines came in too late yesterday for us to review them--and now some of the key ones are already gone. But here's a few worth noting, starting with the July issue of Mojo, which focuses on "Bob Marley--The Legend" and looks inside his "musical revolution" with contributions from Johnny Marr, Sly Dunbar, Jah Wobble, Lee "Scratch" Perry and Rita Marley. Rolling Stone, meanwhile, "gets baked" with cover boy Zach Galifianakis, inside features covering Keith Olbermann's "side of the story," True Blood's "secrets of the new season" and "backstage with U2."
People goes with Bachelorette Ashley "fighting back," having been "so betrayed by the men who were supposed to adore her." This story, of course, takes precedence over "President Obama--On being a good father," no doubt because he's not posing in his underpants while being one. Over at Us, Christina tells us how she "battled back" from a painful divorce, a drunken arrest, public humiliation, etc., etc., etc. Inside is Sean and Scarlett's split, and Kim's "greedy prenup," though Kim is "caught cheating!" on the "Stop the wedding!" cover of In Touch with "kinky texts and wild phone sex"--which to be honest, we've kind of had enough of at this point.
But Kim's "wedding slim-down" takes up cover margin space at Life & Style, which counters People with Ashley desperately taking heartbreaker Bentley back ("Is she crazy," the cover asks? No, we're crazy for caring). Star's got "Eating Disorder Confessions" on its cover (anorexia, bulimia and starvation diets abound) and pictures Jen and Justin on the top for moving in together--though Jen takes some flack back at In Touch for being a "homewrecker." And OK! returns us to poor Ashley, "stabbed in the heart" by Bentley.
Finally, Men's Fitness gives us muscle man Vin Diesel on the cover. But we're picking up Men's Health for a second look at the "political muscle" cover of "America's fittest congressman" Aaron Schock. Anthony Weiner looks pretty fit in his shirtless pics, too, but we're betting will never see his abs gracing the cover of Men's Health--or any other family magazine, for that matter.
