For this assignment, I chose to diagnose Demi Lovato. Ms. Lovato is a singer, songwriter, and actress, who started her career as a young actress in Barney and Friends. Later she starred in the Disney Channel hit show Camp Rock where she released her debut single “This is me”. I didn’t start listening to her music until just a few years ago, and I have grown to love Demi’s music. The lyrics in a lot of her songs have deep meanings and sometimes ironic inferences. This is what led me to look…

emotions and negative emotions from their fans. However, society tends to take what they see from celebrities and amplify the negative parts of the image. One of the most popular controversies over the last several years involves the singer, Miley Cyrus, and her dramatic change in appearance. It all started in 2010 when an abnormal picture…

Niatia “Lil Mama” Kirkland has had many roles throughout her career as she is a dancer, actress, and entertainer; but many now only know her as a meme, or a played out joke. Lil Mama’s first single, “Lip Gloss” came out in 2007 and was the game changer for her becoming career and had everything needed for a one hit wonder – a catchy beat, a catchy dance and something women of all ages could relate to, lip gloss. Although, her flow wasn’t awful and her dance moves were on point, people didn’t…

How do you think you would react if you had to be someone else for the majority of your life? Early in her life starring as Hannah Montana, Miley Cyrus was always under someone else’s pressure. From performing and always having to be someone she isn’t, Miley Cyrus has finally set herself free after her breakup with former costar Liam Hemsworth. The on and off again couple has been together since 2012, but when the couple finally said their goodbyes, Miley had a different outlook on the whole…

it seems like nearly everyone is a Miley Cyrus fan and it's kind of infectious. Well, everyone except for perhaps Nicki Minaj. The recent 4th Annual Variety Show and Hilarity for Charity James Franco’s Bar Mitzvah was a star studded event. For those who don't already know, James is that guy from the Kim Jong Un movie. You know that one where they nearly got everyone killed and there was a huge Sony hacking scandal. Yeah, that one. Anyway, it was Miley Cyrus who stole the show once again,…

lyrics have been taken from Miley Cyrus as Hannah Montana’s hit song ‘Nobody’s Perfect’, a song that was once popular amongst young adults. Miley Cyrus, like many young stars of her time, appeared on Disney Channel in a hit TV Show designed specifically for her known as Hannah Montana, which may have been a mistake. Cyrus is only one of many stars who began their career in the Disney machine, as actors and then later (with the help of Disney) becoming singers. Miley Cyrus had an unusual career…

There is no doubt that Pop Singer Miley Cyrus is an influence, but she is definitely not the role model that she is obligated to be especially because she promotes nudity and sex in her music and everyday life. Miley Cyrus is a former actor and now a pop singer. In her acting career, she is most famous for Disney Channel’s “Hannah Montana”. Her father, Billy Ray Cyrus also contributed to her fame because he was also a very popular sing in his own day. After the fourth season of “Hannah…

Celebrity fascination is not healthy for adolescent girls. Girls around the ages of 11 to 17 are most influenced to get that ‘perfect’ look that they see on the cover of their favorite magazine. (Spettigue) These ‘influences’ that young girls have are setting unrealistic and unhealthy standards. For most girls they are striving for a thigh gap and small waist which they’re trying to achieve by starving themselves or taking medications that could be potentially dangerous. The thing with dieting…

In the early twentieth century, women were still expected to be the “good” housewife and mother, but more educational and career opportunities became accessible. More women were able to work their way into the music industry and although discrimination and inequality were rampant, women were performing in public more than ever. Eager to take advantage of the opportunities, groups like the Ziegfield Follies sprung up. Talented singers and dancers, the “show-girls” of the Ziegfield Follies were…

Miley Cyrus was known as one of the most popular Disney Channel stars but, her fame began to fade which forced her to reinvent her star text, making her one of the most revolutionized celebrities in her generation. A star text is an image of everything that we associate with a star, including their promotion and body of work. Miley’s original image was developed from her years working on the show Hannah Montana which built her original image of being known as a sweet and innocent teenage girl.…
