About Loverboy Magazine

 

loverboy magazine issue 2The Love Affair Begins…

Loverboy is the brainchild of journalist Michael Turnbull and was conceived to fill the gap in the market that he saw for high-quality, exclusive content aimed at the international Queer community and their interests and passions. With a music, fashion and adult entertainment contact book bursting at the seams, he was ideally placed to spearhead this new venture.

Design led, the look of Loverboy Magazine is as essential to its appeal as the exclusive content and distinctive “high-end, yet edgy” style that appeals to the fashion conscious, yet independently minded reader. Over 120 pages, Loverboy bridges the gap between the glossy fashion “books” and the mass-media celebrity magazines.

With an eye for the unusual, overlooked, iconic and innovative, and a focus on current and developing trends, Loverboy delivers engaging, exclusive content across a range of areas linked to lifestyle, Queer-culture and the gay scenes of London, New York, San Francisco, Berlin and other major European cities.

Michael Turnbull, Editor-in-Chief

Michael began freelancing at heat, Little White Lies, FHM, Smash Hits!, Arena & Attitude before moving into the music industry and working on digital campaigns for Girls Aloud, Kylie & Lily Allen.

After realising that wasn’t what made him happy he went back to writing but was unable to find a suitable publication for his ideas. So he started his own.

As you may have guessed from the title, Michael has an unhealthy obsession with Mariah Carey.
