Glam Africa: The Revolutionary Edition (2019)

TEAMLETTER
2019 has been a special year for so many reasons,
and Glam Africa is bringing the year - and the decade
- to a close with our most ambitious edition ever: The
Revolutionary Edition. Where should we begin? If you've
been a long-term reader of Glam Africa magazine,
you'll know how much we love our reality shows. In this
edition, the reality TV phenomenon is front-and-centre,
with Love Island star Ovie Soko joining us for his first
ever cover shoot, as well as an up-close and personal
cover story that you won't want to miss. For our fashion
cover, athletes-turned-reality stars Mike and Perri Edwards
also sat down with us to tell all about life post-Big Brother
Naija and their exciting plans for the future.
To pull off this one-of-a-kind issue, we said sayonara to
our in-house editorial team (temporarily) and enlisted
a diverse group of talented, young content creators
for our first ever ‘digital takeover’, which sees online
personalities including bloggers, presenters and
YouTubers adapting their digital expertise for print media.
The results are phenomenal, from Lala Raee's 7 steps to
achieving financial independence, to Shedzi's treatise
on the rise of the girl boss, Grandy Kat's report on the
black-owned brands revolutionising the make-up industry,
and so much more. We're also taking the opportunity
to celebrate some of the men taking bold steps to move
Africa forward, as well as shining a light on one of our
favourite Nigerian music icons, D'banj.
What else do you need? Advice to help you get ahead
of holiday shopping for your significant other(s)? Check.
Beauty and skincare secrets that will up your #nofilter
game? Look no further. Very few publications can boast
such a diverse range of content, and whatever it is you're
looking for, GA has got you covered. We might as well
have called this ‘The Egalitarian Issue’, because there
really is something for everyone.
Have a merry Christmas and a fantastic 2020!
THE GLAM AFRICA TEAM
