What the ! I liked that magazine. I still had some issues coming too. BLAH!
JANE fun??????
HELLOOOOOOOOOOOOO…. anyone remember SASSY? NOw that shit was funner than getting head at the park. SASSY went under and JANE took its place in the 90's….most of the writers sold out, SASSY went from something like BUST to SEVENTEEN quicker then LILO hitting a free 8 BALL of your boyfriends ass cheeks.
It was my favorite I am so sad!
makes sense since Jane hasn't worked there for years. oh Jane Pratt…you start wonderful magazines and leave them to die sad sad deaths
Next it's Bazaar
I love the new layout for the comments. It doesn't slow the computer down.
I Love Jane .. and Sassy.. why is it only crap magazines that tell you how to lose weight in 8 days that get to keep a shelf life.. How shallow is modern society set to become.
I loved SASSY. I still have all the old issues. I say bring back SASSY!!!! I was never much a fan of JANE after Ms. Pratt left but SASSY molded my teenage fashion years…
i love jane!!! so sad : (
it's about time. since they replaced jane pratt it all went down the ol' toilet.
Noooo! I just subscribed….good think I didn't pay yet. Thanks Perez!
JANE was just an excuse for the writers and editor to suck up to celebs and pretend they were their friends. It turned my stomach. I cancelled my subscription when I realised it was just funding their attempt to cling onto the coattails of people who genuinely famous. Ugh. So much name-dropping. They totally deserved to fail.
Jane Pratt's original magazine was truly groundbreaking as a publication for young women that recognized they were cogent beings instead of boy-crazy fashionistas.
It was RIP once she left…
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
*weeping*
Oh well. The shit they had in there was way too expensive anyway. And the fashions were ugly.
What a media death. That sucks.
Jane magazine was a piece of shit from the beginning. It was never edgy or smart-assed or intelligent, and the people who think it was are completely vacant. If you want a good independent women's mag that isn't all about how to give your man the best beej ever, try Bust.
I thought that they went bankrupt years ago.
Ah, Sassy…I remember a LOOOONG time ago when I was 13/14ish and had a subscription to Sassy…sigh.
I'm OOOOLLLLLDDDD! LOL
no fucking way!!!!!!!!! i used to loveee that mag
so sad!!!! great magazine
Thank-God. That mag sucked!
I have to agree, it sucked more and more as time went on, but it REALLY went downhill after Jane Pratt left. I used to like it because it really *was* different. Not any more. I stopped reading after the first few issues with Brandon. It turned into the same shit you can find in any other women's magazine.
Also, whoever recommended Bust… it's not as different from the rest of the mainstream crap on the newsstand as you'd like to think. If you really want something different, read Bitch mag.
org! i just got done reading the June/July issue, it was literally the last thing I did before Perezing! im upset.
what is wrong with people? i love that heaping piles of shit like cosmo make it for ages and jane is out…just like sassy (i love jane pratt forever and i know that she left jane but still) …apparently people prefer "how to make a guy cum on your face faster" articles as opposed to something with a little sass writen by intelligent women.
boo!
No! I have a subscription!
That was the only thing even close to decent journalism for a magazine. The article in the last issue on the Children of God was amazing. Ugh, now it's back to Cosmo regurgitating the same crap on how to give the "perfect blowjob."
What a bummer.
Will they be refunding me the $10 I just paid to renew my subscription? Golly, now what will I read?
Too bad, so sad. After the original editor Jane Pratt left, that ish went down. It was gdod back in the day tho!!!
I sad I just renewed my subscription!!!
it was waaaay past time for this.
i, for one, am glad.
self-indulgent wanna be's will have to look elsewhere for work–boo effin hoo.
A great quote paraphrased from the graphic novel Ghost World:
"Sassy is for cunts who think they're edgy just because they know who Sonic Youth is."
Finally…nothing was more annoying than that damn editor thinking we gave a crap about her every breath and life stage. I dance on the grave of all exercises in narcissistic futility.
my WHORE-o-scop in jane mag told me i would get an STD if i didnt "keep my legs closed" untill the fourth. what kind of bull shit is that!!!!
aww. oh well.. NYLON all the way baby!!!!
:-)
aww. oh well.. NYLON all the way baby!!!!
Sad! I loved Jane. Even after it went a little downhill with the new editor it was always really fresh and interesting. Dammit!
I miss Jane Pratt. What the hell happened to her? Did they can her or did she leave of her own accord. I just renewed my subscription for two years a couple weeks ago. Grrrr
oh no!! i loved jane it was my favorite!! what will happen to my subscription. i'm bummed but goldies comment "of course it’s dead…once jane pratt left it was total shit… they tried to turn it into cosmo which is a fatal error… i’m sorry it lost it’s original point of view with the new editor." is totally true, as soon as jane pratt left the magazine did start to slide
This is horrible news! Jane was the only intelligent magazine for women in their 20s!
Brandon Holley totally killed it. The last issue of my subscription was her first as Editor In Chief. I did NOT renew. Where is Jane Pratt?!?
dammit. i loved jane, but thanks for telling me. i was just about to pay for my new subscription and i'd only recieved one mag!
WTF is Jane magazine? I take it it's not an American magazine.
The new editor killed a great mag. I was a huge Jane/Sassy fan but I admit that it has lost its edge.
Thank you, that is a gift! That bitch Jane Pratt sucks so bad!!!!!!!!!!!! Even though she'd been gone for a few years, her stench was still there!!!!!!!
BUST Magizine is a lot like (and better) then old Jane was - check that one out.
It's about GD time! It was always a "daddy's little girl's" rag!
wtf?? the only normal magazine out there too. *sheds tear* back to reading the bible I guess. Cuz you'll never catch me reading any Glamour or Cosmo garbage EVAR!!
It was better when it was SASSY magazine. JANE SUCKED ASS!!!! Sooooo boring!
Fuck, I'm moving out of this Western world. I have lost all will to read at the coming of this news. I need to lay down, and then get up and start packing. I lost hope in this strange land (North America) long ago. Everyone is so uptight yet we go crazy for some fucking super-tanned pair of tits with hair and dare call it a woman. No, no more of this shit.
Uh… am I going to get my money back for the subscription I JUST bought two weeks ago… or what?
That magazine sucked ASS, anyway. HARD!
=P
She never had the stature to carry a magazine on her name anyway. Blabbing about bumping clams with Drew Barrymore was low class. Good riddance to this annoying 90's relic and her lame mag.
OMG!!! Whatever. That rag has been crappy and juvenille since 'Jane' herself left and was replaced with some 'I was popular in 1985 during my senior year so this qualifies me to be editor of Jane' has-been straight from a Fountains of Wayne song. Yeah, I had a subscription-if only for the car accident factor-c'mon, I just couldn't look away. I hope I get a reimbursement check for the rest of the issues I won't be getting. I'll save it in anticipation of 'Perez Monthly'. Kisses!
wtf?? NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This makes me sad. I really love Jane mag.
After the new editor took over, you knew it was just a matter of time
Even with it's flaws, it's sad to see it go. It's the only mag that acknowledges the fact that most people don't have megabucks to spend on fashion, etc. While I was urked by the detox article and their preference for waifs, at least it promoted an idea of womanhood that was comparatively complex — where compassion, activisim, and awareness were as important and desireable as physical beauty. Hopefully Jane Pratt (or someone!) will bring us something new and even better…
it sucked ever since jane left it for her baby. it stopped being feminist and edgy and became just another glamour or cosmopolitan but not as good as those.
Damn! I had a free subscription to that magazine! What am I gonna read when I'm stuck in traffic now?
Damn
No! I loved that magazine! Shit
I'm hurt. I love that mag
