Icon Magazine is a bi-monthly magazine set up in 2005 by ex-professional footballers Tim Sherwood and Jamie Redknapp along with Redknapp's wife Louise. The magazine is the first venture of Redknapp Publications and its readership is exclusive as it is not sold in shops and it is aimed at a celebrity readership. Originally intended to be just for professional footballers, it has now branched out to many other international sports people as well as television personalities, actors and selected first class airport lounges. Official readership currently stands at around 25,000.

The magazine has four section StyleIcon, FashionIcon, LifestyleIcon and TravelIcon. Jamie himself has conducted interviews of A list sports stars for the cover articles. The magazine has a cover price of £6 but celebrity subscribers do not officially have to pay for it. Past individual issues can be brought for £15 on the official website.

In March 2008 it was revealed in The Sun newspaper that the magazine had hit financial difficulties and was losing £85,000 a year. A former worker for the magazine said “They are so busy with their celebrity lives and their children, they haven’t got time to do everything they want to do at Icon.”

In August 2008, two pioneers of men's magazines in the UK and USA, Andy Clerkson and Ed Needham took on the editorial direction of the magazine. Andy Clerkson was General Manager of Maxim Magazine USA (2001-2004) and editorial director of Dennis Publishing Inc (2004-2006). Between 1996 and 2006, Ed Needham was the editor of FHM magazine in the UK and USA, Managing editor of Rolling Stone and Editor in Chief of Maxim USA. Clerkson and Needham's publishing company, Grand Parade produces ICON under contract.

Pride has been the lifestyle bible of the woman of colour for nearly two decades. Pride is unique, blending multiculturalism with modern UK living. Pride is the face of black Britain.

Pride brings out the very best in its readers, who strive to be the best in every area of their very demanding and colourful lives.

The Pride woman is very aware of her cultural background and eager to retain and promote her identity. However, she is also fully integrated within the British cultural society.

The Pride woman is a well-educated, ambitious go-getter who has overcome the carelessness of her flirty freedom years. More than 50% of Pride readers have completed a degree. She is focused and responsible. Striving to be the best in both her personal and career life, she is now more confident and cultured. She is aware of her attributes and has learned to use them well. She is opinionated but always open to new ideas.

Pride has fed the spirit of the woman of colour for the best part of two decades, offering information that is important to her, such as career, health, hair and beauty, and advice on issues ranging from dealing with cultural racism to updates on the latest braid sprays – issues that are not found in any other lifestyle title.

By advertising in Pride, companies speak specifically to the woman of colour through her medium and join the celebration of all that she is. Because when a Pride woman sits down with Pride, she goes on an exciting journey of cultural self-discovery with her best friend, who understands where she is coming from and – most importantly – where she is going.
