Original ZOO Magazine UK – 24-30 July 2015 – Issue 589, with a colourful multi-star cover built around the feature “Telly Babes In Tiny Bikinis!”

The cover prominently features Gemma Atkinson, Nicole Scherzinger, Casey Batchelor and Lucy Mecklenburgh, with all four appearing in the main beach and swimwear feature inside the magazine.
