Kardashian Covers Sell Big in 2010


If the Kardashian sisters seemed to be everywhere in 2010, it's probably because they were. This year, both weekly and monthly magazine titles have gotten a boost with a Kardashian cover.


Celebrity weeklies, like Us Weekly, Life & Style, and OK!, have covered the sisters fairly consistently all year, which isn't surprising considering their exposure. In addition to "Keeping up With the Kardashians" and after the success of "Kourtney and Khloé Take Miami," "Kourtney and Kim Take New York" will premiere in January. The girls' love lives have also been media fodder, with OK! magazine reportedly paying $300,000 for the rights to Khloé's wedding to Lamar Odom in September 2009.

The surprising figure is the girls' success with monthly titles. According to Rapid Report (through November), Shape Magazine had it's best-selling issue of the year in June, with Kim Kardashian on the cover. W Magazine also saw big numbers, when it featured Kim naked on the cover for its second highest-seller of the year.

The success of these covers can only mean that we'll being seeing a lot more of the Kardashians in 2011.

What about you? Do you pick up magazines with a Kardashian on the front?
