IN the battle over which magazine will be the first to feature the newest additions to the Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt brood, the celebrity glossies are double-teaming the stars.

People, the most profitable magazine in the Time Inc. empire, has teamed up with overseas celebrity magazine Hello! to win the deal for the photos of the twin babies. People will get the North American rights to the photos.

The photo shoot took place last weekend with the proud parents and their son, Knox, and daughter Vivienne. Hello! gets all the other rights worldwide.

Could Vanity Fair be planning a look into the life of U.K. business tycoon Richard Caring? According to a report in London’s Independent earlier this week, the title has sent a journalist to London to delve into Caring’s history.

ring, who is pals with Topshop’s owner Sir Philip Green, made a splash in the U.K. press last year when he bought the late Mark Birley’s private club empire, which includes the Mayfair clubs Annabel’s, Mark’s Club, George, Harry’s Bar and the Bath & Racquets Club.

At the time, sources said Caring, who built his business as a clothing supplier, paid upward of $180 million for the clubs. Caring also owns a string of famed London restaurants including The Ivy, Le Caprice and Scott’s through his company Caprice Holdings, and earlier this year he bought a majority stake in the Soho House group.

Esquire Cover: Let’s Not All Get Crazy at the Same Time
By Dylan Stableford

Lots of observers weighing in on Esquire's electronic cover. Many, like Hammock Publishing head and noted blogger Rex Hammock, have been critical. (Of Esquire editor David Granger, Rex wrote: "For the editor of Esquire to admit—in public, no less—that his solution for thinking his magazine is 'only a magazine' is adding blinking words to the cover should be grounds for his transfer to another position at Hearst where he can get over his, er, boredom.")

Consultant and newsletter producer Bob Sacks, though, is giving Granger props: Please, let's not all get crazy at the same time. So many people are over-reacting to the announcement that Esquire is using e-ink on their cover that I almost don't know where to begin. But almost isn't don't know.

First and foremost, this is a clever magazine cover gimmick for a 75th anniversary cover. Period, end of story, except for all the brouhaha. They deserve to do something special. And e-ink is going to be something special. In this case it is underutilizing the power and the possibilities of e-ink, but what the heck?
