Naked Eye Magazine was a Canadian entertainment and lifestyle publication distributed by Brand U Media on a quarterly basis and then biannual basis.[1] The magazine was published between 1999 and 2010 with interruptions.
Overview
Naked Eye magazine's publicly stated primary mandate was to "celebrate Canadian culture by covering national talent with a global perspective". The magazine focused on both Canadian and international celebrities and trends.[2]
The magazine originally launched in Montreal, Quebec, under XMMA promoter and publisher (and then editor) Burton Rice in 1999 but folded in under a year.[3][4] It was relaunched as a quarterly in Fall 2007.[5]
The target reader group of the magazine was people aged between 18 and 35.[3]
Previously featured celebrities
Naked Eye was unique in that it only featured Canadian celebrities on its cover. [6]
Originally cover subjects were limited to actors and musicians, though towards the last issues this expanded to subjects including an ultimate fighter and a latex fetish model.
