The third cover of my extra research is an issue of 'Rolling Stones' featuring the 90s power group the 'Spice Girls'.
What is great about this cover is the transformation of the 'Spice Girls' from the bubble gum pop to a rock n roll image, making them look more powerful as a girl group that is regularly meant to look sweet but look badass.
I love how they placed all the names of the other artists on the cover pushed to the back and to the side so the spice girls can stand out more from their iconic era of fame and domination in the music industry.
Along with the using of the colour pink typically labelled a girl colour and with the 'Spice Girls' fame they brought the 90s 'Girl Power' so the use of pink makes it look like they are taking over the magazine completely.
So what I'm going to take from this cover is the dominance of the band pushing all the artists name out of the way. To make them the whole reason to buy the magazine and that reason alone as the other artists are just extras to the magazine.
