I like this cover because it's quite controversial, i don't think I will be able to have a picture like this on my front cover but i like the idea of the bubbles on her and as many in the promoting/advertising industry know, sex sells. I like how nearly in every different issue of 'Rolling Stone' magazine the mast head is a different colour to match with their cover this means they are not held back by their own creation in a way. 'The Hot List' is a good way to show what bands are in the magazine and makes it clear of what to look for in the contents page i think ill use this idea in my magazine. The 'Rolling Stone' overlaps the name of the artist onto the picture of the person itself this helps indicate that, that is indeed the person they mean which will be much more helpful when coming to my front cover because the person ill be using will defiantly not be as famous as Lady Gaga!
