Gay Guys In Chelsea Aren't the Only Things That Look Alike

200607-knoxvillegenreout.jpg

Our media wagging brah Jossip brings some interesting news about September's issue of Out magazine, the first issue helmed entirely by new editor Aaron Hicklin (who came over from BlackBook magazine). Turns out Hicklin's debut effort takes a remarkably similar approach to Genre's July 2005 cover — when it was Genre undergoing to the revamp with new editor Chris Ciompi.

Perhaps our problem isn't with the lack of creativity, but with Johnny Knoxville commanding so many covers. Gay covers, even.

Update: Turns out it's not just Out and Genre who fell in love with Knoxville. The Advocate professed its warm fuzzies first. [Jossip]

Nice catch. Perhaps it's just a dream of all gay magazine editors to splash a little pink in their debut issue. I know it's been one of mine for years.

Don't gay mags put gay people on their magazine covers anymore? Another few months and all those mags will just be copies of "Details".

Actually, they never did. At least not in Europe, also because you tend to run out of decent looking out celebrities pretty fast.
Yet another dissing attempt at Out Magazine from the Queerty boys. You do this almost at every new issue they publish, and the same could be said for Details. I smell an unburied axe around here. Or two.
