"'Tabloid Magazine'" is a song by Australian punk rock band The Living End. It was released in February 2004, as the second single from their third album, 'Modern ARTillery'. The song spent 4 weeks in the Australian ARIA Singles Charts and peaked at No. 57. It appeared at No 66 on Triple J's Hottest 100 poll for 2003.

It features a live version of the classic "All Torn Down", plus acoustic versions of "Who's Gonna Save Us?" and "What Would You Do?" and a previously unreleased track, "No Reaction".

On the title track frontman Chris Cheney writes, "I have a weak spot for these mags. I am fascinated at the social preoccupation with reading about other peoples lives. They lure you in and become difficult to put down. I think it has a new wave kinda edge".

The video was directed by Todd Sheldrick, and filmed in Sydney during the band's national 'Modern ARTillery' tour in 2003.
