Top of the Pops (magazine)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Top of the Pops magazine is a monthly glossy publication published by the BBC. It features chart information, star gossip, fashion and beauty advice, quizzes, song lyrics and posters. It is a supplementary magazine for the TV show Top of the Pops.
The magazine was launched in February 1995, alongside a revamp of the TV show. It was originally marketed as the missing link between Smash Hits and NME, but its format was gradually changed, with less music content and a demographic shift to young girls. It is still in publication despite the cancellation of the TV show.
