why have models been replaced by actresses on magazine covers?

Answer 1

Because we are living in a time where female actresses are more popular than models. Magazine editors aren't stupid, they know whose image will sell their magazine.

Answer 2

Because actors and actresses have found out that doing magazine covers and commercials is a way of earing easy money. Plus companies and magazines are banking on the idea that people will be more inclined to buy stuff when it is endorsed by a famous face, rather that an unknown, nameless model.

Answer 3

Probably because actresses are willing to be on covers for less money than supermodels - the publicity and and exposure of a magazine cover is worth more to the actress than the huge amounts that many supermodels charge...

Answer 4

because it's all about money. Super models want too much money and they don't bring money into any other reveune but themselves. where as you have an actor bring money to the magazine, the movie they're promoting, and whoever clothes they're wearing. More people can relate to resse witherspoon wearing a pair of chip and pepper jeans, than a size 0 model in roberto cavalli!

Answer 5

Answer 6

B/c all the models think they're actresses now.

Answer 7

Cuz the actress is more recognizable than the fashion model... There aren't many "supermodels" anymore. And most fashion mags are not about the latest fashion. They are more about what hollywood is wearing.

Answer 8

Because they are cheaper and there has been a celebrity overdose. Magazines like People are competing against Vogue and stuff like that.

Answer 9

Answer 10

I don't know, but to answer skib's question, why singers and rappers are replacing actors and actresses, Singers and rappers keep it real. Actors don't.
