Parents Mag Tries to Get Some PR for Itself by Bashing J-Lo
March 31, 2008 by Cherie
Perhaps the folks at Parents magazine felt left out that J-Lo and babies graced the cover of People rather than Parents? In any event, it looks like Parents magazine is using Jennifer Lopez to get itself a little PR.
According to TMZ, the editors at Parents wrote an open letter to J-Lo citing her for safety hazards in her nursery.
As TMZ points out, however, Jen is “totally in the right”, not Parents. They spoke to a rep from Boo Boo Busters, a child safety company, who said that for newborns, the things Parents is referencing is not a concern. “When your baby starts sitting up, at around six months or so, that’s when you remove any canopies or mobiles.” Emme and Max are barely a month old.”
Parents also said Jen should put window guards on the nursery windows. Puh-leez, people. Do you understand what a PHOTO SHOOT is? It means things are staged to look pretty. As TMZ pointed out, “Perhaps window guards weren’t very photogenic? After all, in one of the magazine’s pictures, Jenny from the Block is pictured feeding her baby … in an evening gown. Next time Parents might want to wait to nail J.Lo and Marc Anthony until they’re seen driving erratically while dangling the twins out a car window.”
Well said.
Another blog, however, quoted Parents and left out the part about Parents being wrong. They instead decided to ask their readers what their advice for J-Lo would be. I’ll ask you guys the same thing, what do you think?














I think all they do by this is bad PR.
