Does anyone remember when Rolling Stone was actually a music publication? Hell, I didn’t even mind the political covers, as they’d been an ‘edgy’ music’n'politics magazine since 1967, but this is a whole other matter. The only music-related coverlines are to the right, superimposed over some mindless MTV star, and probably only have a page or less dedicated to each of them in the magazine. What gets me is the heading though, ‘The Hills: OMG! Do They Totally Hate Each Other?’ - OMG I didn’t know I was picking up a copy of Seventeen or US Weekly! Is this is any way music related, besides the fact this ‘reality show’ airs on MTV? Is it even important in ANY WAY AT ALL?!
Maybe I’m just bitter because I can’t stand this show at all, but don’t the tabloids feature enough of these talentless twentysomethings?
(PS: The same could be said for Blender’s Tila Tequila cover, but I digress)

I love how you mentioned this today…because just this morning I went to grab something out of my sister’s room and lo and behold I caught this issue of Rolling Stone on her dresser.
My first thought (before even realizing who was on the cover) was somewhere between “Um, way to snag my copy of Rolling Stone before I even got a chance to see it!” and “Uh, why is my sister reading Rolling Stone?” But then when I did indeed realize who was on the cover I was like “Oh. OK, well uh…I’ll just leave this here, then” and I backed slowly out of her room, haha.
I don’t know WHY I get Rolling Stone anymore. It just magically appeared one day and keeps coming…but I’ll be damned if I throw any of them away. Someday when I go on a crafty rampage, I’ll have plenty of collaging material!
