research and planning: comparing double page spread language

Pop double page spread
This is an interview on the popular pop artist Nicki Minaj. The language use for this interview isn't too formal and there is a bit of slang used only in quotes. It is informal because the target audience is a young teenagers this is so that they can understand and recognise what the interview is about. If it was to be very formal, the audience wouldn't be able to understand the formal language used in the interview. This magazine is child like because of the informal questions where as the rock magazines ask most formal questions to get formal answers from the artist.

RandB double page spread
This interview is more formal because this interview is based on more of a  serious artist, so you would expect formal answers however informal language is used only in the quotes. However it will be different to a classic rock magazine because the time differences and age differences of the artists. This is more adult like interview because they talk about specific subject focusing on their recent work and what they plan to do in the future, the interviewer doesn't  ask about the artist 'favourite colour' because that is a bit childish.
