The main photograph is of two celebrities (Gwen Stefani and her husband Gavin) holding their new baby son. They are posing for the photograph as Gwen is holding the baby and looking straight at the camera and her husband is kissing the baby’s forehead. Gwen’s skin is airbrushed and she is wearing thick makeup which shows that the photograph has been deliberately taken at a photoshoot. Gwen and Gavin are wearing dark colours which go with the background which is also dark. The colours give off a classy, homely feel. The baby is wrapped in a blue blanket which is stereotypical for a baby boy. The logo of the magazine is placed to the far left above Gwen’s head so it is noticeable. The logo is white and blue which are linked with the baby’s blanket. The borders and backgrounds on the other smaller images are also a baby blue which link with the baby’s blanket. This is emphasising that the main story is about a new born baby boy. The only font colours used on the cover are yellow, white and baby blue which all stand out. The yellow is used to emphasis names and statements e.g. ‘Nick’ and ‘The coolest kid on the planet’ The yellow is also used as a background of other bits of text to emphasise them e.g. ‘Exclusive in their Hollywood home!’ The main story is made clear as it is written in large white font across the main image so you notice it straight away.
