these people magasines at the check out counter are basically try to seriously pervert a persons sexuality (not that sexual perversion is a bad thing [I've done perverted stuff myself] but they are trying to make you a real pathetic sort of pervert) they seem to be asking the shopper to establish a relation with these "Stars" that is a bit too much like a child's curiosity about their parents bedroom activities and this childlike curiosity is directed toward some super freaky specimens, Cruise, Jackson etc.
