Bop magazine is a monthly American entertainment magazine for kids 10 years of age and teens. It began publication in the summer of 1983 and is published by Laufer Media, which also publishes Tiger Beat magazine. Popular features include articles, mini-mags, interviews, and the Fly Free To Hollywood contest, where readers had to correctly guess the stars, whether it's identifying their eyes, finding their names in a word search, or identyifying them by their hair (the photos had the celebrities with their faces blocked out). A spinoff magazine, Big Bopper, also called "BB", was released in the fall of 1986. Bop and Tiger Beat are very similar, as they share an editor and they both include the same news and sometimes the same pictures and posters. Bop was sold by its founder Chuck Laufer to Primedia in 1998. Primedia sold it (along with Tiger Beat) to Scott Laufer and Summer Balfour in 2003.
