Girl Bands
Narrative
The narrative of most girl bands is having fun with friends.
In the Destiny's Child and Little Mix video they did this by showing them
having fun and hanging out in a room, whereas the spice girls were going out
causing chaos.
Theme
The themes of some girl band songs tend to be about the idea
that friends are more important than men.
Location
Locations varied from outside to inside depending on the
type of song. Ballads tend to be outside like in the Spice Girls 2 Become 1
video. While most upbeat songs where filmed inside like Little mix's How Ya
Doing.
Representations
Destiny's Child and the Spice Girls where seen more for male
gaze with their clothes, in Destiny's Child Cater 2 U they are first shown not
wearing any clothes then they are shown
not wearing much clothes e.g bikini or short skirt. Little Mix however are for
the younger generation and don't wear provocative clothes.
Costumes
Girl bands tend to have their own personal style in what
they wear but not too much of a difference to showthat their a group. The
costumes also depend on the type of song as well. For example, if they are
singing a
ballad they tend to wear dresses, whilst rock song tends to
have an edgier look.
