Written Analysis 3

The topic that I have chosen is reality shows. I believe that reality shows and celebrities correlate. The cult of the celebrity really does have a lot to do with my topic. I think that all celebrities are of a cult. All celebrities compete in some way. It is a big competition that never ends. There are so many different reality shows that exist today. Some reality shows are looking for love, others are competing with their exes. The list can go on forever. I can’t even remember when reality shows actually came about, but their existence has put a damper on sitcoms. It seems like sitcoms rarely come on any more because of reality shows.

Reality shows make people into celebrities. Honestly, a lot of people wouldn’t even be famous if it wasn’t for reality shows. It is usually the people that cause the drama that bring the most attention to themselves. Those end up being the ones that are the most famous. Heroes actually exist on reality shows. I didn’t think it would be possible, but now that I think of it there is many. All of the reality shows where there is a competition involved would have a hero.

I’ve actually realized that celebrity is a cult and that reality shows are very much a part of it. I think that in order to keep up and stay being in the cult celebrities have to keep up with the latest. The latest things are reality shows. Just about every celebrity has one. A lot of the popular celebrities were made from reality shows. There are also a lot of heroes from reality shows as well.

Icon Analysis

There were so many different things, places, and people to choose from when completing this assignment. Honestly, I had a whole list. Of course I only picked three since (didn't want to over do it). The icons that I chose were New York, New York, Barack Obama, and the walk of fame. These are three of my favorites.

New York is the name of a city and state. I have visited there twice in my life so far. The most amazing place that I have ever been so far. I love the exciting rush that it gives me. The high paced lifestyle. New York is the city of dreams to me. People go there to make progress.

President Barack Obama is an all around amazing person. The first African American President in history. During the time of his campaign I went to see him a couple of times. I thought that he gave great speeches. I was interested in what he had to say. I'm glad that I got to witness this huge mark made in history. It definitely won't be forgotten.

What is Pop Culture?

What is pop culture? I think that is a question that all of us can answer. I believe that it is everywhere. In all of our everyday lives.  Its what we do. To me its a form of guidance for myself and I think for everyone else too. Pop culture is what we live. It is taken into the work place because it consists of our daily tasks. Its relevant then, now, and will be in the future now. Pop culture is not going to go away. Most people base their career paths off of pop culture. The world needs pop culture to progress in life. 

I've decided to use Beyonce's music as my artifact. It appeals to everyone. Not even just everyone in America, but outside of the states also. Her music breaks barriers.  The music that she makes gives other artist something to go off of. It inspires people.
