This emerging visual art movement became known quickly as Pop Art. “Pop Art was inspired by mass consumerism and popular culture. Its roots can be traced back to the late fifties, but it wasn’t until the following decade that it achieved the status of a design style (“Raimes”).” It…

Arts can be separated into different branches and Hap in the story prefers realistic art. Hap in “The Soul of Capitalism” by Robert Collins would likely appreciate Warhol’s art mentioned in “When Canada Met Andy” by Nancy Tousley on a superficial level, but not the abstract message. Hap would praise some of Warhol’s art because his work matches Hap’s definition of art. Hap loves traditional art but not modern or abstract art as he claims that “it’s not art if he can’t tell what it is” (1),…

The song that I have decided to analyze is Formation, by Beyonce. Beyonce is a worldwide sensation in the pop music industry as well as in feminist culture. Beyonce originally started out in a singing group called Destiny’s Child, where she first became well known; once the group split, Beyonce started her own musical career and has not looked back since. In 2008, eleven years after dating, Beyonce and rapper and music producer Jay-Z married. Three years later, Beyonce became pregnant with…

If there is someone we know whose hips don’t lie, we know it is Shakira. The world has been mesmerized with this Latina’s charm, appearance and talent wise.

And of course, may we not forget the husky and strong singing prowess this feisty vixen from Colombia get to own that captivated the diverse taste of the listening audience all over the world. Young Shakira was born and raised in one of…

J-Biebs What do you imagine when you hear “crazy”? I think of the one and only, Justin Bieber. No, I do not know him personally, but I could only imagine how many times I would face palm myself when I heard him speak. The following statements will describe why I do not think that Justin would be a great hero, even a good citizen for that matter. He is a cocky young man, as he grows older, his morals seem to spiral down the drain. The final reason is, he has an absolute horrendous temper problem…

I twirled the loose hair that casted across her face. She smiled — a smile that had always made me fall on my knees for her. But tonight, that same smile that she gave to me every night, became just another smile. “Sweetheart, the night must come to an end,” I said, as I stood from my seat. “Won’t you invite me to dance?” She said as she looked at me with her radiant ocean- blue eyes. “Not tonight, not anymore.” I said as I walked away from the beautiful blue-eyed woman. I walked away from…

On the other hand, one of the blog manager named Roboseyo, argue that Korean stars are trying to act the way American popstars act and it will fall into the ‘almost there, but not quite’ zone, and people who are willing to take K-pop, its awkward English its cute or sweet stylings, and its boys wearing eye makeup on its own terms (Roboseyo: Kpop Can't Take Over America. Neither Can Anybody). It won't win over "the mainstream" of Americans. Because Americans prefer a sexy, powerful, tough image…

Lily Allen is one of the strangest pop stars in the world. She has self proclaimed that she isn’t ridiculously talented, states she isn’t drop-dead gorgeous, and it is clear that she isn’t at all wholly likeable. These days, we are so used to packaged, manufactured and flawless ‘Barbie doll’ singers with tremendous, infallible personalities and charm, and subsequently this is perhaps why Lily Allen is so intriguing; she is the anti-pop star. Back in 2009, Allen infamously ‘retired’ from the…

1. B.1 You feel a rush of adrenaline as it fills your body with the hot exciting sensations, and your mind suddenly starts to clear. You concentrate on the wolf’s footing, where it is stepping, how it is moving. The wolf’s shoulder blades tense up and relax as if it were telling you something. As if it were warning you. The wolf takes a single step back and then lunges forward at your right side. Your body flinches out of the way without you even having to think about it. The wolf assumes its…

Chapter sixteen ***Carson 's P.O.V*** "Oliver, wanna come with me to grab something from my locker?" I asked him, before gym. He nodded, smiling. He stood up and took my hand as we walked to the locker rooms. As soon as we got there he had me pinned against a locker and was slamming his lips to mine. I smiled, but kissed back. "I told you they were fucking!" I pulled away and saw Cassidy and Dave. Cassidy had rolled her eyes at his statement and smiled. Oliver turned around and hugged me and…
