Does anyone else read Love It!? It's fab for crap tips and interviews with Z-list celebs who mostly talk about when they're going to get their next boob job. Plus, the editor is eight months pregnant, so I keep having to buy it every week in case she has it.

I love the demented tips woman! Not to mention the brilliant true life stories like "My husband raped my dog, but I still love him"

Love It is my FAVOURITE magazine, and I am a bit obsessed with the editor, Karen Pasquali-Jones. I saw her at a magazine awards bash last year and demanded to be introduced, before drunkenly telling her of my love for Love It! She looked me up and down and said "Yeah, I bet I know what your favourite feature was this week. THE ONE ABOUT DOGGING! NAAA-AAAAAA-AAAAA!". And then she ran off, cackling like a witch.

When I get my musical (about the tabloid obsession with celebrity) written, there will be a featured publication (along the lines of Love It!) called ZOMG Magazine. The prologue of the musical is full of the people you find in these magazines - I will probably have to start buying Love It! for research purposes.

Karen Pasquali-Jones is old friends with my journalism lecturer. For the past two years she's come in to do a special talk about Love It! and for the past two years I've overslept and missed it. Devasting isn't the word.

I went to a rather posh, very middle class spa with my sister who completely shamed me by reading 'Love It!' in the jacuzzi. She spent about twenty minutes reading 'Pregnant with my rapist's baby - at 12!'.

I too enjoy her editor letters, although I got a bit fed up of her going on about her "gay hubby" a while back. I like to pretend that June Sheppard from Pick Me Up is her big sister or something.

And just in case you were wondering who wrote the fab star letter in last weeks issue, look no further. I still haven't got my phone though.

Congratulations! What was the letter on? Did it have a hilarious photo of a baby in sunglasses with sticky-up hair attached?

I wish! No, it was about the article they had about Sinitta adopting children, and she said something like "couples who aren't conceiving should think about adopting" and I wrote in saying why should you wait til then? They altered it a bit though, I don't sound so whiny.
Thank you for your congratulations. I was quite excited when I saw it in there...all the businessmen standing on the platform looked rather bemused when I started dancing around.

Having bought it three isues of Love It! in a row now I can;t really add anything other than to share in the love.
We buy it and Pick Me Up on a Tuesday and read the stories out to each other. Seriously.

(Just to clarify, that is gay husband in addition to main husband).

He was.
Current favourite is actually not in Love It - it might be Pick Me Up instead. It's about a man who has only eaten beans for over a year (except when he didn't) and has lost ten stone. It's a pun-a-licious article ('beans were his real trump card', etc) and the headline bore some relation to the story too. This is better than 'I was so thin my body snapped in half!', where she just fell on a tradmill and broke her hip.

I got Full House! last night which was surprisingly not utter shit, despite having paper which you could see through and no naked puzzle man. A boy was in trouble at school for excessive flatulance. Apparently the mother thought getting his medical problem published in a national magazine would help solve his problem...

If he's bullied enough and can manage to play a tune, he's got a good chance of the finals of next year's 'Britain's Got Talent'.
