Articles in double page spreads

Recently I have been looking at the types of articles published on double page spreads in music magazines. They're either interviews with an artist or an article that is about the artist.

This article is about how Alexandra Burke and her career in the music industry. The article represents Alexandra in a positive way and that she is represented as a strong and powerful woman.

This is an article on Katy Perry about her unhappy childhood and now her successful breakthrough in the music industry. This article also shows Katy as strong and fierce. Not only do we get this impression from the text but also the picture of her with her fists up.

This double page spread of Rita Ora is an interview, which asks her questions about her new album, it's success and how successful she has been herself as an artist. We see Rita Ora being portrayed in a positive light here as they talk about her success and how great her life is at the moment.

Here is another interview, but this is with Lady Gaga, and they're talking about her past and how she has learnt from it. This article portrays Lady Gaga as both positive and negative as she talks about her bad past but then how she's learnt from her mistakes and how she is now living a better life and what she wants to achieve. 

This article of Taylor is about her past, her mistakes and her bad behaviour. This portrays Taylor in a negative light as she is young, wild, crazy, rebellious and badly behaved. 

In the double page spread of my magazine, I am hoping to do an article and an interview, which enables me to develop my own conventions.
