Thesis #2

Christina Aguilera's song Beautiful critques American societies obsession with humanly perfection through the music, lyrics and images portrayed in her music video.

music: tempo, beat, repitition, instruments, melody and strong vocals
-all helps to enchance the meaning of the video, makes the video empowering, like a declaration of what shes trying to say

lyrics: the music is a metaphorical declaration and the lyrics are the physical declaration of what she is saying about everyone being loved no matter what they look like/feel

images: gay couple, anorexic teenager, bullied teens, transexuals
how all these situations comment on how the world is different and were made to see them as bad and those people in those situations are insecure because the media deems them as abnormal, were not meant to accept them
