Closer magazine, I've definitely heard of. I've seen it pop up in Tesco and stuff.
From what I know of it, they talk about a fair amount of kinda useless celeb/socialite drama, but they wouldn't bother going near an internet pseudo-celebrity (unless they got paid to... like more than usual), because nobody cares about her and her drama other than millennials, really.. I don't think a lot of adults (not including millennials) really use youtube as a source of entertainment, and as a result probably wouldn't be so caught up in the drama.
If anything you mention youtube drama to someone from "generation x" and they'll not have a clue what the fuck you're talking about.... and they are the ones who usually reads this magazine AFAIK. Never seen anyone my age or younger reading a copy unless they were bored at the doctor/dentist/etc.
Closer Magazine has a predominantly female readership, ABC1 (upper/middle/lower-middle class), and 35 years+ (source) . It would seem that Closer magazine is a guilty pleasure as I honestly would've pitched it at being predominantly C2DE 15-25 years. I very much doubt that the majority demographic has any idea who Trisha is, so I would guess it was another 'Sponsored' article (i.e. Trisha gave it for free, or her agent paid for the article.)
