Teen Vogue barely gained, posting a 0.9% increase from last year. Come on, Lauren and Heidi of The Hills, one of you clearly needs to get a D.U.I to give Teen Vogue a boost. Take one for the team!

Elle readers seeking pages of fashion and style advice might be turned off by another Lohan arrest and pending court date, which will take place just days after the magazine hits newsstands... sources said Elle's interview and photo shoot took place prior to Lohan's stint in rehab, so it's likely the story doesn't include any discussion of her most recent run-in with the law.

'We think [Blige] is just gorgeous  tattoos or no tattoos," said Redbook editor in chief Stacy Morrison. 'We were just disappointed that her management requested that we airbrush them from her photos because they are so much a part of who she is. But the ink doesn't make the woman."

No, but caving into the demands of a woman who doesn't even represent your target demo does make you sort of a pussy!

No More Ink[WWD]

But we were wrong! Or so says Sarah Jessica, who says she finds all the SATC-derived offers that come her way just so, so distasteful:

"There have been so many opportunities to trade on Carrie Bradshaw, and I decline those so much because they really feel vulgar to me," she said. "The difference between this and taking advantage of an audience that way is that we're not ending with this romance; we're not telling a story. We're not throwing a man in there. We're making this about your own, individual sort of unleashed act."

Get that? Think of Sarah Jessica's latest performance as a stylish, adorable klutz not as Carrie Bradshaw, fashion-obsessive but as Carrie Bradshaw: Deranged but well-dressed spinster!
