magazine ad analysis 2
This is the second magazine ad I have uploaded on this blog. It shows artist cheryl cole dressed in red, and brown clothing which connotes passion, or blending in with the background or going back to nature. The fact that her hair is messy, and almost looks to be in a natural hairstyle shows that she is trying to give the impression of going back to nature. This is an unstereotypical image for a women which if we go with the male gaze theory means that she wants men to see her as her without any enhancement to her assets, or body. We can also say that using the star theory would show that in this as cheryl cole wants to show that she is trying to improve her reputation by caring about the environment. A view further represented by the name of the cd which is messy little raindrops which has connotations of possible pollution by oil, or acid rain. An impression I further gather from the loopy handwritten cursive style of the text for the cd.
