Conclusion Thus far, the top three Disney Channel programs from 2001-2011 demonstrate post-feminist viewpoints represented by each of these girls’ double lives. One life is a home life or private life where she is relegated to traditional—even stereotypical—female duties yet can be herself and use her powers.

Nicki Minaj’s Anaconda (music video) has taken on a controversial imagery due to social media and networking. The music video not only provokes ideas, but it genders performance in today’s society. The music video, along with the lyrics contains strong symbolism of sexualization of men and women (2014). ‘Anaconda’ perception of female power and sexual dominance, which primarily focuses on Minaj’s body image, this presents how women are look at in popular culture. Nicki Minaj presents heavily…
lot of popular princes, princesses and even animal characters and have become a magnet of young children. Web sites, video games, computer-generated animation, Disney TV and pop music - developed around franchises like "High School Musical," "Hannah Montana" and the Jonas Brothers, and accessible online with the touch of a button - are now sustaining Disney fans into their teenage and young adult years (Goraux, 2011). Cartoons of Disney are many young people’s childhood. Even for me, Alladin and…

When Hannah Montana ended in 2010, so did my childhood. And when that period of observation and absorption ended, my creative work began. I’ve been writing fiction for ten years now. That sounds pretty impressive in theory, but it’s significantly less so once…

She thought I would get into reading if I had something I was interested in, in that sense she bought me Hannah Montana books. I was totally engrossed with Hannah Montana at the time, but my mom didn’t know that all the books were already on the television.…

The Fibula is next,…
and others need to get healthy finally and lose those pounds on the scale. Numbers on a scale never define a person, I know that. I will always be that kid who sang crappy solos in high school talent shows or that guy who performed concerts to Hannah Montana in his bedroom turned…
