Willis (1990)

"Pop stars are, to some extent, symbolic vehicles with which young women understand themselves more fully, even if, by doing so, they partly shape their personalities to fit the stars alleged preferences" - Willis (1990)

An example of where this statement links with is for the artist Lady Gaga. Lady Gaga inspires young people, this has happened in New Zealand, in New Zealand Lady Gaga has allowed young males to come out and talk about their sexuality and made them feel comfortable.

Our artist, FKA Twigs, would be an inspiration and a role model to many young people/teenagers around the world. Our artist has a very unique identity, her image would inspire many and people would want to be like her/look like her as she is very different. An example of this is the vast amount of young females that are now getting their septum pierced as they have seen it on FKA Twigs.
