Annual features
The Power List - Each year (typically in the May or June issue), Premiere publishes its list of Hollywood's most powerful people. The list typically contains prominent actors, directors, producers, agents, and lawyers. Very rarely, a screenwriter will make the list.
Women in Hollywood - Each year, the magazine's October issue celebrates some of the most prominent women in Hollywood. Actresses are typically the focus, although the magazine has also covered female studio executives and others in non-acting industry professions. A corresponding reception is held in Los Angeles.
