The Evolution of Britney Spears Part 1



You can clearly see the evolution of Britney Spears on the cover of Rolling Stones magazine. How have these images been constructed to present ideas about the star?





On this cover she is only 17!


Answer the following questions and make sure that you use appropriate terminology:


1) How has the image been framed/cropped? What type of shot has been used and why? What type of magazine is this typical of (refer back to the readership statistics)

2) Describe Britney’s costume. What does it suggest about her image? Who is this appealing to?

3) Have any props been used? What messages are they conveying to the audience?

4) What setting is used and what are the connotations of this?

5) Are any intertextual references being made? What are the connotations of this?

6) What colours are used and why?


Post your answers on your blogs under the heading 'The Evolution of Britney Spears Part 1'
