A high five for Attitude

By Press Gazette

Gay men’s lifestyle glossy Attitude has unveiled a five-cover exclusive this month, in what it claimed is a first for a magazine in the gay sector.

The covers will feature all five members of multi-million selling band Scissor Sisters – Jake Shears, Babydaddy, Ana Matronic, Paddy Boom and Del Marquis – as an international press first for the band’s return with their new single I Don’t Feel Like Dancin’.

Attitude editor and BSME Men’s Magazine Editor 2005, Adam Mattera, said: “We wanted to create an event cover to celebrate the return of a band whose appeal and personality totally taps into the key values of the title: stylish colourful, completely original, sometimes outrageous and above all great fun.

“We have a great relationship with the band already – we were the first title to put the band on the cover in June 2004 and they performed at our 10th anniversary party that year. To mark the excitement of their return we wanted to do something unique – they are such strong distinct individuals separate covers made sense and no one else would have the balls to do it.”
