Miley Cyrus Poster Analysis This poster is an advertisement for

Miley Cyrus make up line in popular

make up store M.A.C. The colour
scheme for the poster can be depicted
as dominantly pink which conforms to
the hegemonic view that females
relate too pink and in terms of this ad
are more likely to pay attention to the
make up being shown. The artists
edgy persona could connote the
different types of women the brand
caters for as it could be a dominant
misconception they only suit girly
girls. The artist can be denoted to
have shaven hair which signifies her
rebellious personality. She is also
wearing black which juxtaposes the
high key, bright pink patterns around
her making her the prime focus of the
ad. Her tattoos can also be denoted and they also signify rebellion, further
reinforcing this ideology. The artist is also laying with her legs open with minimal
clothing on which may be for the voyeuristic pleasure of the audience. This links
to Laura Mulveys male gaze theory which may be a marketing technique used in
order to catch the unlikely attention to a make-up brand from a male audience
and therefore more customers and more money generated for the artist and the
company.
