Vintage Oni Idol Tabloid Cover

Goal: Create a finished vintage sensational gossip tabloid cover featuring {argument name="character name" default="an elegant oni-inspired male idol"} as the central celebrity, in a gritty Japanese punk-rock magazine aesthetic.

Canvas: Tall vertical cover, approximately 2:3 aspect ratio, full-bleed design with a worn cream paper border, folded paper creases, scuffed ink, distressed halftone texture, slight print misregistration, and dark red, black, ivory, and metallic gold as the dominant palette.

Main subject: A photorealistic young adult male with {argument name="hair color" default="messy white silver hair"}, pale skin, glamorous makeup, sharp red eye shadow, two glossy dark red oni horns, earrings, black nail polish, rings, and a confident half-lidded expression. He wears a black turtleneck under an ornate black brocade jacket with red satin lapels, gold chains, pins, belt hardware, and layered necklaces. Pose him waist-up in the center, one hand near his cheek and the other at his waist, looking like a scandalous rock star at a press event.

Background: Deep red theater curtains behind the subject, with a paparazzi crowd and camera flashes in the lower background. Use dramatic rim lighting, glossy highlights, cinematic contrast, and realistic studio photography blended with graphic print design.

Layout: Make it look like a real completed tabloid cover, not a poster mockup. Use exactly 9 major cover elements: 1 oversized jagged masthead across the top in angular cream lettering with red shadows; 1 small black cat logo badge in the top-left corner; 1 central portrait occupying most of the page; 1 circular inset portrait at upper left with a spiky border; 1 tilted rectangular inset portrait at lower left; 1 spiky circular inset portrait at lower right; 1 issue-number box at upper right; 1 round price sticker below it; and 1 large slanted bottom headline banner.

Text content: Use bold fake kana-like display lettering rather than readable real words for most headlines. The masthead should be enormous, jagged, cream-colored, and energetic. The issue box should contain readable English text: "ISSUE 777" and "MEOWDAY". The round price sticker should read "ONLY $7.77" with a barcode-like stripe. The bottom-right corner may include a tiny publisher mark reading "voxCAT". All other headline text should be stylized pseudo-tabloid lettering that feels like explosive Japanese gossip typography, with multiple exclamation marks.

Graphic details: Add diagonal cutout subtitle plaques, comic burst shapes, lightning bolts, thick black outlines, red drop shadows, gold accent strokes, torn-paper corners, layered sticker-like panels, and exaggerated tabloid composition. The three inset portraits must show the same character in different expressions: upper-left serious side glance, lower-left contemplative smoking/hand-near-face pose, lower-right laughing expression. Include exactly 2 standalone spiky text badges without photos: one small mid-left/top-left scandal badge and one larger bottom-left burst badge.

Style constraints: High-end photorealistic character photography combined with vintage manga tabloid cover design; gritty but polished; no clean modern minimalism; no empty areas; keep the paper edge visible; maintain the exaggerated headline zones, issue/price area, photo windows, and explosive badges. Customize the character’s vibe as {argument name="celebrity vibe" default="dangerous glamorous rock idol"} and the main color accent as {argument name="accent color" default="dark crimson red"}.
