Since we have been discussing advertisements in class, I think this post is pretty appropriate. Last week, Lady Gaga and Beyonce debuted their new music video for "Telephone". I was kind of shocked by the video, but you can expect that from Gaga. The video was kind of strange but I did notice a variety of products throughout the video. I wondered if these products were put in their just for fun or if Lady Gaga was paid to put them in.
Wonder Bread, Miracle Whip, Diet Coke, Polaroid and Virgin Mobile were the big names that appeared in the video. All of these products are fun and colorful, connecting to Lady Gaga's image. She has always been known for her colorful ways. What do you think these ads mean? Did she simply put them in there for the big bucks, or do you think they have a connected meaning?
