AIBU or just getting old?

I don't remember Top of the Pops magazine looking anything like this when I used to buy it

Lol bonkers

YANBU. This is the usual trash aimed at pre teen girls masquerading as TOTP magazine. They are obviously trying to justify it by having one of the identikit saccharine (yet still somehow too overtly sexual) pop stars on the front. I can't believe the BBC is responsible for it!

I probably last bought it around 2000-2002 so over two decades ago - I don't remember it being overtly girly (never mind babyish ) either, I knew boys who used to read it as well. Can't imagine that they'd have bought anything that had a cover like that.

Also - £4.99!!!!

@AspireMe Totally agree. It used to be about music! It's so disappointing to see what it has now just become! Also I agree £4.99 is outrageous - but unfortunately about the going rate for these kind of magazines. I imagine it's because of all the "free gifts".

Here’s what I used to read growing up. Great value at 7p!
