Magazines

I am always intrigued by the magazine stands in Mexico. In the US, magazine covers depicting nude people are usually hidden either in a wrapper or a sort of a divider that exposes only the title of the magazine.

Here, even pornographic poses are visible to passersby. It is also interesting to see what and who makes the news.

As I was in the airport in Mexico City Monday morning, all of the ladies at the Starbucks were lining up to get photos with and autographs of some star I didn’t recognize. (At first, I thought these employees really like their customers!) It turns out he was Patricio Borghetti, an Argentinian rocker, model, and telenovela actor.

I need to read some more magazines.
