Women and men are presented in a
lot of different ways in magazines.
Women are very sexy, classes, and presentable. It is rare that women
appear on covers that don’t have none of the quality that I listed above. Men in my opinion are normally represented
with some type of symbol power. For
example women, jewelry, fashion, fancy cars, hard bodies, and sports.
I believe there are tons of
diversity in magazines because of the wide range of topics. The magazines that stood out to me the most
was the weekly magazines. Magazines like
in touch weekly and the hip hop weekly.
I view a weekly magazines like in touch as a mainly white people
magazines, and a magazines like hip hop weekly as a mainly black people
magazine. What really interesting to me
is the black and white celebrity that appear in both magazines, For example you
have to be very good or very bad to have headlines in both. I label these celebrities as mage stars. It’s like they are on top of the world. Just to name a few, they are people like Kim
Kardashian, Kanye west, Justin Bieger, jay-z, Beyonce, Miley Cyrus, and
Rihanna.
In conclusion the magazines attempt
to draw you in by pictures and gossips.
This makes for good advertising because gossip is normally entertaining
and exciting. To the point where you go
to know more whether it’s true or not.
For example I brought an in touch magazines after I read the headline.
The headline stated “ Lamar’s 5million $
tell all. Kardashian secrets
exposed.” I think headlines like this
one what people really want. No body
wants to read about anything boring where, is the fun in that! I think headlines are hopeful for the
consumer, we are hoping and waiting for more entertainment. Head lines are fearful for celebrities
because they never know when they are going to be exposed in the media.
