  4. 4

  5. 5

    Okay Ladies let's take a vote…

    For the straight guys out there, how much of their self esteem is based on the size of their pecker?

    Most guys i've been with, if they were bigger, then they had more self esteem/ego. The smaller ones: controlling, abusive and insecure…

    But hey I"ve only been with 8 so what's the word?

  6. 6

    Geez… Poor president Bush gets blamed for everything. How about the fact that the magazine just SUCKED! My daughter who is 13 doesn't like it - TOOO MANY ADDS! Teens want to read about the Jonas brothers not read silly adds.

  7. 7

  17. 17

    Yeah, it's TOTALLY Bush's fault that the magazine sucks and teens are going to the net for their magazines. This just shows how stupid you really are Perez.

  18. 18

    Don't be a Dumb Ass. You can't balme Bush. The Internet is the true reason mgazines and news papers are going under. I guess you should blame Perez.

  19. 19

    whatevs cosmo is way better, fck cosmo girl.

  20. 20

    personally i think that sucks, Cosmogirl was like the magazine that pulled me through high school, i always bought a Cosmogirl every single month and always looked forward to reading it, and now i read Cosmopolitan, i can't believe the magazine that speaks for a generation of young girls and some boys is gone… =(

  21. 21

    Oh Pleeeeeeeeze…………yah blame Bush because he single handly is responsible for it all…ah huh….the fact that it is mostly a "democratic" congress has oh nothing to do with any this…..great so if and when Obama gets it, we can blame him for everything…..gotcha ok.

  22. 22

    Blame Bush? Really? Be more ignorant.

  23. 23

    yeah….Bush is the scapegoat for ignorant people that don't want to find out the REAL reasons why things are going down the toilet.

  24. 24

    American's wanted “CHANGE”! So, in 2006 they voted in a Democratic Congress and yes–we got “CHANGE” all right… In the PAST YEAR:

    1) Consumer confidence has plummeted;
    2) Gasoline is now over $4 a gallon & climbing!;
    3) Unemployment is up to 5.5% (a 10% increase);
    4) Americans have seen their home equity drop by $12 TRILLION DOLLARS and prices still dropping;
    5) 1% of American homes are in foreclosure.
    6) As I write, THE DOW is probing another low~~
    $2.5 TRILLION DOLLARS HAS EVAPORATED (or Vanished entirely) FROM THEIR STOCKS, BONDS & MUTUAL FUNDS INVESTMENT PORTFOLIOS!

    YES, IN 2006 AMERICA VOTED FOR CHANGE…AND WE SURE GOT IT!

    REMEMBER, THE PRESIDENT HAS NO CONTROL OVER ANY OF THESE ISSUES - ONLY CONGRESS !!!

    Crap. I just subscribed to it for my daughter.

  26. 26

    Yes, let us blame everything on Bush. Americans have an unhealthy diet, because of Bush. People can't go and buy shit they don't need, because of Bush. You know, I grew up with barely anything and I still survived. I remember hearing stories about the Great Depression from my grandparents they still survived. God forbid that we learn how to survive without the luxuries of life. Here's a straw for all my fellow Americans who feel they need to whine about the economy: suck it up you pansies!!!

    Re: bamafan12 – You dumbass this isn't done in two years. This is from years before where the Repubs fucked it up.

    STFU Perez. I'm sick of you left wing loons blaming Bush for everything.

  29. 29

    You are blaming only one of the IDIOTS in office of fucked this country up.

    TRY CONGRESS, HOUSE OF REPS, and our FUTURE PRESIDENT OBAMA OR MCCAIN.

    BOTH voted for this fucking bailout!! BUSH is a puppet, and so will be the next fucking president…unless you vote 3rd party.

  30. 30

    Re: Sampson – REALLY!!!

    Well Democrats said VOTE US INTO CONGRESS AND WE'LL GET OUR TROOPS OUT OF IRAQ!!! Guess what, they're still in IRAQ. and Obama AND McCain will leave 60,000 troops in Iraq and redeploy the rest to Afghanistan and Pakistan.

    DEMOCRATS fucking LIED like everybody else. WAKE THE FUCK UP!!

  31. 31

    Why blame Bush?????

  32. 32

    Cosmo girl and Seventeen magazine are the best magazines for teenagers to read. I'm so dissapointed it's going down o well. Prepare for NEW WORLD ORDER and MARTIAL LAW america. soon we will be slaves

  33. 33

    You're an idiot. The ecomony is not solely responsible for print media struggling.

  34. 34

    Re: waterstar – Me wake the fuck up….get your head out of your ass. We wouldn't be there if it wasn't for Bush and his family's personal vendetta. You act like they could have really pulled the troops out since they have been in…do you really think that would've happened with Bush still in office.

  35. 35

    Re: waterstar – So who will you be voting for….Ron Paul? While I haven't nothing against him and I don't think he would do a bad job…lets be for real. There is no damn way a 3rd party will win.

  36. 36

    Re: her_own_wings – HAHAHAHHAHAHAH that comments great. cracked me up

  37. 37

    I actually just bought a subscription to this magazine becuase my niece was selling them for a school fundraiser.WTF do I do now?..lol

  38. 38

    Actually blame the internet.

  39. 39

    blame bush?
    fuck you perez you liberal dumbass

  40. 40

    I blame Dick Cheney's weather machine, which is operated by Karl Rove in the basement of Wal-Mart headquarters.

  41. 41

    Perez-Hilton's staff are a bunch of politically opinionated nim-rodded numb-nuts.

  42. 42

    Do you blame Bush that your dick is an inch long? Magazines in general are all going away. Blame the fucking internet.

  43. 43

    That is so sad! I actually kinda liked that magazine.
    And yes, the failing economy is Bush's fault, which is probably why the magazine is going under….

    Blame Bush? What an ignorant thing to say. You're an idiot who doesn't know shit about economics and it shows in everything you say!!!!!

  45. 45

    Blame Bush? Huh? These dumb teen mags fold all the time. If anything, blame the internet.

  46. 46

    Re: JenBunny711 – Cosmo girl subscribers will automatically be sent Seventeen magazines starting in December or January =) I googled it :)

  47. 47

    well that sucks…

    The magazine is folding because of poor ad revenue sales. Partially because of our shiteous economy and partially because people are reading everything online. Thats why the cosmogirl.com website will still be running.

    But CosmoGirl has NEVER included the sexual content of Cosmopolitan - its about real girls and leadership. When I was a teen, everyone read it. Now that 12 year olds are having sex because of poor parenting and poor celebrity role models, they don't care about whats in magazines like CG.

    And there goes the industry. Careful Teen Vogue and Seventeen - you're next.

  49. 49

    Makes sense as the Cosmo gal is no longer going to have money from their momma & daddy as they lost their shirt/home/life savings/retirments saving on mutual funds and credit maxed to the limit…..shame shame shame…..on BUSH.

  50. 50

    Forget Heidi!
    They we're trying to get me to pay for 2 more years. Those a**es!!! Trying to rip me off!
    But I did love CosmoGirl. :-(
    They had James Marsden once. I mean they should have given him a cover, but eh . . .

    Blame Bush??? Wow Perez, you are even dumber than I thought!!!

  52. 52

    Ugh i love this magazine!!!!!!!!!
    i grew up reading this and J-14
    ;[

    no fair.

  53. 53

    How on earth are you going to put the blame of a crappy magazine going under to the President. The President is a figure-head. No matter who he/she is, they really do not have power. The power lies with Congress. If anyone is to blame it is them. Somehow, it still doesn't make sense to blame the loss of circulation of a teen-magazine on Politicians. Ever think parents don't want their children looking at that crap? Don't you think the Management could have made poor business decisions that brought them to this point?
