LDH2B Meaningless - Pop Culture Analysis Project - Pt 1

1. What is the song basically saying about how to live a good life? Paraphrase the main idea.
The "Lip Gloss" song is basically that its not the lip gloss that made her cool, its the confidence, she thinks its the lip gloss but it isnt and thinking that it would make her feel better, she did.
2. What lyrics particularly speak to that perspective? Use quotes as evidence.
"is that my lip gloss is poppin, my lip gloss is cool, all the boys keep jockin, and chase me after school"
3. How do the video images support, re-orient, or challenge the dominant theme of the lyrics? Analyze. Because as you are watching the video, as soon as Lil Mama puts on the lip gloss, and the boys want her and chasing her and everyone wants some of that lip gloss
4. What else do you notice that's interesting? Look for internal contradictions, aspects of the message that resonate with other messages from the pop culture, points that connect to your own perspective, etc. Analyze squared.
that at the end of the video her mother or whoever it was that picked her up from school, tells her it wasnt the lip gloss but it was rather her confidence and then she realizes it.
