A 2023 survey on children's news consumption in the United Kingdom found that music was the most interesting news topic for girls aged 12 to 15 years old, with 57 percent saying that they found it interesting to read, watch, or listen to news about music, singers, and musicians. Interest in news topics often varied according to gender: boys were keener on news about science and technology or sports than their female counterparts, whereas girls were more likely to enjoy news about fashion and beauty or animals and the environment.
