PEOPLE MAGAZINE OFFERS J. LO $6 MIL FOR BABY PICS

MSNBC says that People magazine has offered $6 million for the first pictures of J.Lo's twins. And that is not slang for her breasts, but her actual twin babies, due any day now. And if you can believe it, that is only for the right to publish the pics in the United States. OK! magazine struck first and secured worldwide rights, but passed on the US, allowing people to secure those. MSNBC says:

Their pics will run in OK!'s 15 international editions. "It is fantastic for those markets, and especially important with the immense strength the exclusive will bring to the new launch of OK! Spain," said a spokesperson for the magazine. The Spain edition launches March 26.

So why pass on the rights to publish the photos here in the United States? One magazine industry insider said that frankly, Lopez' appeal in the U.S. isn't as broad as many people — including Lopez — would like to think.

"Look at her track record with her movies, and look at her album sales. The U.S. market hasn't been fascinated with her in some time," the insider explained. "It makes more sense to not spend a fortune on photos that won't cause a noticeable increase on the newsstand. This just isn't going to sell like Shiloh (Jolie-Pitt), and $6 million is a lot of money."

Jolie and Pitt allegedly got 4 million (which they donated all to charity) so it begs the question, what is People thinking? 2 million more than Jolie and Pitt? That was only like a year ago.
