Sky (disambiguation)
SKY Magazine was a British magazine that was published between 1987 and 2001. It was an entertainment magazine dealing mainly in celebrities featured in film, television and music.
Originally produced by News International's magazine division as a fortnightly, the title struggled and was sold to EMAP, who relaunched it as a monthly.
The magazine was aimed at young people of both sexes, a fairly unusual stance by the mid-1990s. Cover stars were both male and female and were photographed and commented from a sexually interested viewpoint regardless of their sex. Famous, often nude or scantily clad, cover stars included Madonna (most frequently featured), Louise Nurding, Anna Friel, Kylie Minogue, Mark Wahlberg, Brad Pitt, Nick Kamen and Ewan McGregor. In the later years there also featured a number of 'Sex Issues', asking for responses from hetero and gay people of both sexes.
Another frequent feature for a number of years was the back page advice column from Karen Krizanovich, an American journalist who would generally belittle advice seekers, helping them to solve their own problems.
From the mid-1990s, cover stars were in the great majority female, and of a more scantily clad appearance than previously. In later years, the magazine was frequently found alongside lad mags like Loaded, FHM and Maxim on newsagents' shelves.
The magazine was closed in 2001 following a 35% year-on-year fall in circulation to just 65,000 per month, despite a revamp the previous year intended to stem a longer term circulation decline.

Sky Magazine (or 'Sky Mag') was a magazine distributed to subscribers of the BSkyB satellite service Sky Digital.
Availability
The magazine was available to subscribers of the Variety Pack or all packs of entertainment.
Content
The magazines content varied from edition to edition, but tended to will include:
Interviews with celebrities.
Television listings and guides for Sky Movies and Sports channels.
Programme reviews and recommended viewing guides.
Sky services, Adult channels and premium services advertising.
Information regarding updates, price changes, etc..
A newsletter called Sky Month to give tips on how to use Sky.
In its final years, popular consensus was that the quality of the content decreased. What was once a quality magazine had lost channel guides, detailed channel listings and more quality interviews and programme-related articles.
End of magazine
The magazine ceased publication in October 2011. The October/November edition was the final one. The publication was replaced by a weekly customer email newsletter with programming highlights.
