Impersonator

In truth, Waldo is everywhere. Waldo does not just exist in a children’s book. He can be seen in real life as well, and there have been many sightings. In fact just a couple months ago I saw a video taken of Waldo in a McDonalds, which is rumored to be his favorite place to eat. So next time you go to a McDonalds, be wary for he could be lurking around any counter or any booth. Be warned, if you travel to McDonalds to seek Waldo for his fame, you will most likely never find him, for he only…

the staged one. In Kaige’s Farwell My Concubine, the dichotomy between the staged woman and the real woman is heavily prevalent. Kaige’s portrayal of Dieyi is one that fits into a larger historical construct. Traditionally Peking Opera female impersonators were required to constantly imagine themselves to be women. This is evident throughout Farewell My Concubine as Dieyi seemed to not only imagine but truly believe in his own feminity. After being essentially beaten into submission, Dieyi…

To express this opinion and to make the desperate situation more obvious she uses irony. Lincoln and Booth are two African American males, one has a job and one does not. Lincoln works as an Abraham Lincoln impersonator, who reenacts the final moments of Lincoln’s life before he was assassinated. He does this by allowing paying customers to shoot him in the back of the head with cap guns. The irony of this, is that the only work he could find is being a black…

because you imagine it to be true, instead of looking at the facts. Knapp gives this information to be a cognitive way people spread rumors. Paul is Dead related to being a Boogie Rumor because many people spread this rumor thinking there is an impersonator in the band, giving them anxiety and the fear of Paul McCartney actually died. Wishful thinking is added into this rumor as well since people imagined it to be true instead of looking of the facts debunking the rumor, probably because the…

In the late post-classic period of pre-Columbian Mesoamerica, the Aztec empire proved to be the largest and most advanced civilization in the region. Until its fall in 1521, the Aztec world was centered at the city of Tenochtitlan and grew to include an estimated 11 million people (Coe and Koontz 235). Warfare was an integral part of Aztec culture, as were religious rituals, which often included sacrifice of some kind. The Effigy Mask of Coyolxauhqui, on show at the Getty Museum Exhibition,…

In a collaboration between Céline and Stella McCartney, Chinatown Plaid was released as part of a 2013 Fall collection. The tailored coats of bright plaid bares resemblance to large, plastic woven tote bags, having appropriated not only its red, white, and blue print but also its rigid form and frayed trimming. However, in contrast to the garments’ name, the visibility of these bags extends beyond the working class immigrants in Chinatown and other districts characterised by large migrant worker…
