Janice Min Quotations

Why does Vanity Fair put Paris Hilton topless on its cover? ... Is that different from Newsweek or Time, which puts Jesus on the cover like he's Jennifer Aniston ?

She can guarantee to move a million copies on the newsstand. Though Aniston is still huge, I'd say Angelina managed to one-up her again by getting pregnant. Now, she's got a more interesting plot line, and readers are going to keep watching that for a long, long time.

My great hope is that a really great news story develops over the weekend,

Our readers love celebrities, ... We cover the aspects of celebrity that our readers can most relate to -- romance, engagement, marriage, babies, shopping. It makes celebrities much more accessible to our reader, which is what she wants.

She will have to find a way to reinvent herself, and the public is ready for that. People are fascinated still, and there is a way for her to capitalize on that.

She made this connection with her reality show back in 2002; people just sat back and took her in, so the real strength of her celebrity is her personality,

It's a great issue, ... Whenever we break a big news story, that's great. It's a really good mix of entertainment and fashion and news. It has all the elements that you hope come together every week.

Being a celebrity is addictive. Britney would like to go back to being Britney one day.
