Social class and demographics...

Social class
After my research I decided to choose the price as £1 because my young audiences are casual lowest grade workers, as they're not working and usually living off their parents for their welfare. Therefor, it would make it easier for my young audience to purchase my magazine. This price also made me decided that the celebrity that is featuring on my magazine isn't very popular yet... so my chosen price would help convince my audience to buy my magazine. However if Vogue magazines costs £4.10 my young audience would not have been able to purchase the magazine because it's expensive. This magazine would be bought by C1/C2 audiences as it could be affordable for them. Moreover the Vogue magazine is aimed at a older female audience . Since my audience are at a stage in life were they're learning how to dress up and be trendy, I decided to give free gifts like nail varnish in that way the make up brand would be promoted.

Demographics
Conventionally the target audience for pop magazines are from the age of 12-15 but because nowadays everyone is so advanced in lifestyle, pop magazines could also be bought by 10 year olds and onwards. Stereotypically pop magazines are designed for girls, however statistics show that   85% of girls read pop and 15% of boys read pop too. The race of my audiences would be 50% English/American, 30% black and 10% Asian and 10% European. In order to read my magazine it's important to have education also the dialect on my magazine is going to be abbreviated/everyday words from typical teenagers, the dialect will relate to my audience. However, too formal/big words won't be familiar to the audiences.
