This past summer, WWD reported that French gay magazine Têtu declared bankruptcy. The magazine, which was founded in 1995 by Pascal Loubet and Didier Lestrade had been financed by Pierre Bergé until 2013, when he sold it to Jean-Jacques Augier. Têtu editor-in-chief Yannick Barbe is disappointed by the closure and thinks it’s part of an underestimation of the gay market. He shares, “It’s a paradox. It should be an era of opportunities, including on the business front.” While the magazine continues to run digitally via Tetu.com, in honor of the print edition, we have rounded up some of our favorite covers including everyone from models such as David Gandy to singers like Nick Jonas.
