The battle for the best magazine cover of a female celebrity for 2010 is on! You will decide.

We took the liberty of shortlisting the most memorable magazine covers this year and divided them into four, based on the quarter of the year that they appeared (1st Quarter, 2nd Quarter, 3rd Quarter and 4th Quarter). The four divisions will be our preliminaries. The top 3 vote-getters from each quarter will advance to our Final 12.

Please take note that a female celebrity might have had more than 1 magazine cover this year and in order to prevent split votes for the said celebrity, we will only pick the magazine cover with the most number of votes as her entry to the final 12. The available slot will be given to the next highest vote-getter and so on.

This poll will be held on Starmometer’s Facebook Page. This will ensure 100% transparency and accuracy as each respondent’s vote(s) is recorded and his/her identity is seen by other respondents. This process will virtually eliminate any doubts and suspicion on cheating, thereby making the results more reliable and accurate reflecting the unified choice of the majority.
