The Magazine<br />
of Celebrities<br />
& Shopping<br />
Hi, reader:<br />
VR: THE MAGAZINE OF CELEBRITIES & SHOPPING<br />
is the interactive, multimedia, computer-generated<br />
magazine that brings you a new celebrity every<br />
week—plus shopping!<br />
WORLD WITHOUT WALLS<br />
Haven't you always wanted to know what goes<br />
on behind the gates of Bel Air—where your favorite<br />
celebrities do the same funny, touching, human<br />
things the rest of us do when we think no one's<br />
watching? Now, thanks to the Military Conversion<br />
Program that will keep America solvent, all of us<br />
can take advantage of the sophisticated technology—satellite<br />
signals that pierce ceilings, longdistance<br />
bugs, remote wire taps—that have kept<br />
America safe. The happy result: Anyone can be<br />
monitored. Without knowing it. Even celebrities!<br />
In each issue VR spends a week with a different glamorous celebrity. All week—<br />
every day and every minute. Wherever they go, we go. Undetected.<br />
THE MODERN WAY TO READ<br />
VR is modern: it comes to you through your computer. Turn VR on, and at first it looks<br />
like a traditional magazine. Text and photographs. We call this section "The Week<br />
in Review' —a day-by-day synopsis of the celebrity's week. But that's only the beginning.<br />
VR is a multimedia magazine!<br />
DON'T MISS A MOMENT<br />
Intrigued by an item in "The Week in Review"? Want to know more about "Thursday,<br />
4:00-5:03 p.m.: Nicholson has coronary. Bumps into Cesar Romero in Cedars-Sinai<br />
emergency room"? Then tell VR to turn print into film—and call up documentaryquality<br />
coverage.<br />
If you have the time, watch—and hear—your favorite celebrity live out the entire<br />
week. Nothing is missed—not a meal, bath or seizure. (Fast-forward through the dull<br />
spots.) So real it will seem to be happening in front of you!<br />
LIVE LIKE A CELEBRITY — REALLY!<br />
Through the technological marvel of Virtual Reality, you can actually enter the world<br />
of your favorite celebrities. If Charles Durning wins an Oscar, you can be up on the<br />
podium with him. And if he loses, you can still be with him when he 'suddenly turns<br />
20<br />
foul and curses out the men's room attendant<br />
at Spago.<br />
NEVER BE LONELY AGAIN<br />
Holographic imaging turns celebrities into what<br />
they were always meant to be—your personal<br />
playthings. From every issue you can retrieve<br />
vivid, lifelike, 3-D facsimiles of that week's<br />
celebrity. In any position you want—or, at least,<br />
any position they appeared in during the week.<br />
Take one with you wherever you go. Need a<br />
date? Why hunt around for a last-minute, lastditch<br />
kind of gal when you could be out with<br />
the spitting image of—Juliet Prowse!<br />
SOCIAL SIGNIFICANCE<br />
But VR is about more than celebrities and shopping.<br />
It's about the fast-paced, ever-changing<br />
world we live in today. To make sense of that<br />
world, you can call up color commentary from<br />
our award-winning analysts. Like Leon Edel<br />
on Marky Mark ("I mean, I do not think Henry<br />
James would have simply left his towel on the<br />
bathroom floor") and William F. Buckley on the<br />
Queen Mother ("This is an attractive enough<br />
woman, so why, by God, is she sitting home on<br />
a Saturday night eating a quart of rum raisin<br />
ice cream out of the container?"). Thought-provoking<br />
insights from the world's finest minds.<br />
SHOP TILL YOU DROP — AT HOME!<br />
Do you sweat easily in crowds? Do salesclerks make you nervous? Do you have an<br />
eating disorder? Then VR is the magazine for you. Never again risk the humiliation<br />
of going out to a store. VR brings the store to you. In other magazines you only see<br />
the ads. In VR you can experience them. Using Virtual Reality, you can browse through<br />
drawers of jewelry, sample perfume (without having the whole magazine reek of<br />
it), go for a test drive—and never leave home.<br />
And with holographic imaging, you can actually try on clothes without ever<br />
leaving your chair!<br />
But words aren't enough. You have to try VR to believe it. Sign up now for a free<br />
sample. No obligations. We'll even throw in our commemorative pamphlet, "Three<br />
Days in the Life of Angel Cordero7 How can you lose?<br />
