L - The double page spread from Q magazine instantly stand out to you letting you know as a reader who the particular article is about. This is due to an image that covers the pull page of the left hand side of the double page spread. The image instantly catches our eye and we instantly know who the well known artist is, Lady Gaga. The image is in black and white which could relate to her personality and image as Lady Gaga lives a very black and white life, we never really know what is happening in her personal life we only hear of her on stage and when singing, the black and white also shows elegance and the sex appeal of the image which is also represented through the fact she is naked and how her hair is messy but still looks glamorous. As well the fact that she is covering herself with her hands could be seen as although she is naked she still has respect for herself but could also represent the fact she has covered up a lot of things due to the media industry but we will finally get to know more about her in this article. We can also see that she is wearing, what look to be, chains around her neck, this could represent her wild and naughty side and chains connote as police, jail and something being locked up which could represent as she has been locking herself up but is letting it out in the article with Q. On the right hand side we see the page full of writing with Lady Gaga's name in the top corner lady is in an elegant font where as Gaga stands out to and is a very loud font which represents her personality. L is printed over the article in a big bold font which catches our eye as a reader, the use of red font connotes as love and passion for her music and fans but also red can connote as a cheeky colour which again represents her personality we see through her music videos.

I - Q magazine is alternative music magazine it is published monthly in the UK, its publishing company is Bauer Consumer Media. Mark Ellen and David Hepworth founded the magazine because they felt it was a niche market as there wasn't a magazine for the older generation who were still buying CD's. Q was first published in 1986 and was different from other magazines due to its highly quality photography and printing  as well as having an older target audience. The magazine was originally going to be called 'Cue', however it was changed to 'Q' due to possible confusion with it being a snooker magazine, plus a single lettered title is thought to be more prominent on news stands.

I - The idea behind the double page spread is so that we clearly focus on the one artist this is by using a large image of the artist and a page full of text to intrigue us into what the article is about as Lady Gaga is a mysterious but adventurous artist with music and style. The expression on Lady Gaga's face is very personal to the reader as she is looking directly into the camera, almost as if she is looking directly at us. Q magazine is to provide its readers with quality music as the price is £3.99 and the physical magazine is quality photographic paper unlike cheaper magazines such as NME which costs £2.10 and is made out of cheaper tabloid paper.

A - The target audience for the magazine is around the 16 - 30 age as the mature images and layout appeal more to the 16 - 30 age range and I don't feel would appeal to the younger age range or older than 30. I also feel Lady Gaga's music is aimed at this age range due to her raunchy videos and lyrics which can be used which is come across in the image of this double page spread.

R - The double page spread represents what Q magazine is about and that Q magazine are willing to pull out all the stops for their magazine readers. Q used a simple double page spread but it still looked busy due to the large image and text filled page. The double page spread represents the full magazine as this kind of layout and font is used throughout the whole magazine, the font and images are prominent which stands out to the audience and I feel is mature, this brings the reader in. As well Lady Gaga is one of the most popular artists to date and a lot of her fans will be attracted to this as the same kind of image is the front cover of this edition too, this also lets the readers identify the main genre of the magazine which is pop/chart/rock music, a wide variety to bring in more readers.
