Thalía launches new magazine aimed at Latina girls
 April
19, 2004 -- Latin pop star Thalia, who already has made her mark in the music, fashion and television industries, now wants to add magazine publishing to her resume.
Thalia announced the launch of her new Spanish-language women's magazine last week during appearances at Grand Central Terminal and at
the retail store, Kmart.
"Thalia has said it's going to be a magazine especially for Latina girls,"
said Stuart Zakim, spokesman for publisher American Media. "The overall message she wants people to walk away with is a positive `you can do everything, live it well' attitude. Very upbeat."
The magazine's editorial content will include a mix of health, beauty, fashion and spiritual tips, celebrity interviews and inspirational stories.
The 120-page magazine will be distributed nationally and have an initial target circulation of about 100,000. It will be printed in Spanish, focusing on Thalia's main fan base, Hispanic women ages 18-35, who are largely
un-served by print media, Zakim said.
Thalía, whose full name is Thalía Sodi but who goes by her first name only, is editorial director of the magazine and will have full approval over content.
