Can you get featured in US Weekly?
One of the best-known celebrity magazines in the world, with a digital audience far beyond the newsstand.
US Weekly is a household name in celebrity and lifestyle news, in print and at usmagazine.com. Editorial coverage typically requires a publicist and a story that beats the day’s celebrity headlines, with no control over when or whether it runs. A guaranteed placement removes that: the feature is arranged with the publication in advance, you approve the draft, and the article publishes on usmagazine.com inside a written window, usually one to two weeks. It is a real editorial article on the site, indexed by Google, that reaches a national and international audience and gives you a credit readers recognise instantly.
What US Weekly covers
US Weekly launched in 1977 and became one of the defining celebrity magazines of the modern era. Usmagazine.com covers celebrity news and relationships, television and reality TV, music, film, fashion and beauty, health and fitness, weddings and families, and the products and routines of famous people. Its long-running franchises, from “Stars, They’re Just Like Us” to its style and shopping coverage, give the brand a familiar, friendly authority with readers.
The editorial voice is upbeat, accessible and personal. US Weekly writes about famous people as people: what they are doing, wearing, launching and going through. Stories that work have a recognisable name or a relatable person at the centre, a moment readers can picture, and a detail worth talking about.
Who reads US Weekly
US Weekly reaches a large mainstream audience across the United States and internationally, skewing female and spanning a wide age range. Readers follow celebrity news, reality television, fashion and beauty trends and wellness, and they arrive through Google, social platforms, news apps and the magazine’s own loyal readership. The audience buys what it reads about, which is why the brand’s product and lifestyle coverage is so influential.
For an entertainer, a personality or a lifestyle brand, a US Weekly feature is mainstream recognition at scale. It is a credit fans, retailers and booking teams know on sight, and a Google result for your name that reads as entertainment coverage rather than marketing.

What makes a story pitch-ready for US Weekly
US Weekly is personal and mainstream. The story needs a person readers will root for.
US Weekly features read best when they feel like the magazine’s own coverage: a person at the centre, a moment happening now, and details that make readers feel they know you a little better. Relationships, family, transformations, comebacks and behind-the-scenes stories all work. So do launches with a real story about why the product exists.
Before drafting, we identify the strongest of the angles below. If the story needs a stronger hook, we will tell you what would create one.
What weakens a pitch
- A product without a person. US Weekly covers people, and products through the people who use them.
- Corporate or technical language. Readers came for a person’s story, not a specification sheet.
- Claims about celebrity involvement that cannot be shown. Everything we write must be true.
- Trying to cover everything at once. One moment, told warmly and specifically, is what gets read and shared.
