Madonna A Star

Madonna a Star



1. What Similarities are there between content of each video and how Madonna is portrayed?

As time goes by and the videos become more recent Madonna is seen to be a stronger women and not seen as weak and innocent as may be portrayed in “Like a Virgin”. She is seen to becoming more dominant in later videos such as “American Life”, this is when Madonna is successful is hugely successful as an artist and can push boundaries further in order to get a message across to the audience.








  1. How would you therefore describe Madonna as a star?

Madonna is a very energetic pop star who plays a central role in all her videos as the majority of her videos are very dance orientated. As seen in the picture below Madonna uses colours to represent her two different sides. The red suggests passion and sexuality whereas the white suggests innocence and purity. Madonna started out portraying the “Cowgirl” persona and the white may reflect this whereas as she became older she was more dominant and red may portray this. Even a couple of decades on Madonna still uses the natural blonde look and continues with the two different colours white and red.
