After pop stars on Twitter is clearly a brilliant way to pass time. How can one otherwise presumed we know Craig David gym for is "fine-tune physique … lol Taio Cruz" or to have "had a couple of weeks of no shades wearing"? It hides the barrier between the pop star and pop fan, promote dialogue (mainly things like, "@ onedirection OMG Harry if you do not follow me back I get cry 4ever, plz RT") and gives the pop star (or their record company) access to millions of fans, who can be crowd sourced in more than 140 characters.
Recently, that dialogue has been strengthened by the creation of so-called Twitter originate, a way for fans pledge allegiance to their favorite pop star and feel part of their world without part with a £ 30 annual fee for a badge and photocopied autograph. Today, it is a question of deciding if the page you are on and hashtagging as your life depends on it.
Pop fans questions ask themselves are so diverse; are you one of the Monsters # or # Barbz? Would you like to join team # Navy? If pushed, would you say your allegiance is # Beasties or # heartbeats? Regardless of what you do, please say you are not a # Crazycat …
It is all nonsense, of course, but interesting nonsense, not least because it reveals a lot about the person obvious statement. Lady Gagasensible calls on its fans "Monsters"; her image is built on undermining the perceived notions of beauty, and she promotes the idea of people show their errors as they really are. It also helps her fans are fanatical, are stored correctly to this term and proudly defines itself as such. Also nicki minajexaggerated femininity is encapsulated by "barbz", a term she says refers to "women and gay boys". Both are ridiculous, larger than life pop superstars, which seems to live through an alter ego.
Now this works so well Pixie lott. Call your fans "crazycats" comes to mind "down with the kids" mum trying to ingratiate himself with his teenage daughter: "you guys had until noon. 45 pm last night? You crazy cats! " While Gaga drip feeds exclusive information on new artwork, single thing fans want premieres and really learn, Lott uses the term "bo crazy" like a gathered children TV presenter.
For Rihanna and her "Navy", things have moved on to the next level. Not only is there a designated @ rihannanavy Twitter feed ("introduces a new era of fandom"), but there is also an unfair two-minute Navy recruitment video with the text: "her appearance infatuates us, her force feeds us, her music created us – would you like to stay at the fleet." at the same time, it is jaw-droppingly ridiculous and amazing.
Like bears Grolsch bottle tops on your laces seemed a bit silly once Bros. had split, and walking around the Tesco with one sparkly glove not scream "zeitgeist" post-1984, it is not clear how long this trend will last or how it will evolve your fingers crossed.When people reach a certain age, they will stop wanting to be defined as a ' Crazycat ', both for the sake of their mental health and musical taste.
