Cosmo is supposedly for the 18-34 age group... however, when I was in high school, it was "cool" to read Cosmo. So, you get a lot of 14, 15, 16 year old girls reading Cosmo because they think it'll make them more mature. Now that I'm an adult (scary thought), I read Cosmo maybe once every two or three years. I don't know any other adult women who read it regularly, either. So my thought is, it may be marketed for the young adult female, but it's actually being bought more by the teenage female, which would explain the N'Sync thing... maybe?

Subject: Creed mention in Cosmo

I'm not sure if this has been posted or not yet. I apologize if it has already. I was reading the latest edition of Cosmopolitan, the one with Kirsten Dunst on the cover, and they had an online Reader's Choice awards thing and Creed was listed in the top 3 in 3 different categories. They are as follows:

Best Band: 1- 'NSync (why, I do not know!)

                  2- Creed

                  3- Dave Matthews Band

Best Album: 1- 'NSync, "No Stings Attached" (Ugh again..lol)

                   2- Creed, "Human Clay"

                   3- The Beatles, "1"

Best Music Video: 1- Destiny's Child, "Independant Woman"

                            2- 'NSync, "Bye, Bye, Bye"

                            3- Creed, "Higher"

I wish I'd have known about this poll earlier so I could've posted it here and we could've gotten Creed to number one on all three groups. Unfortunately they had to play second fiddle to 'NSync, which is odd since I thought Cosmo was a mag for ladies in the 18-34 age group.
