Entertainment

1. In the entertainment domain, feminine beauty is hardly veiled. It occurs in various forms, though, such as the image, particularly the still, and instructions on how to look like the stars. I chose to work with the seminal how-to manual: Color Me Beautiful.

2. Feminism appears in female buddy films such as Thelma and Louise and Beaches as well as pop questionings of style (see Madonna). Riot Grrrl bands also represent feminism in entertainment. I work with the Riot Grrrl-esque band L7 and their Rock for Choice actions.

3. In this domain, fandom plays out in two key ways: fan magazines (produced by the industry) including the tabloids and the "fiction" of the obsessed psychopath (see Play Misty For Me).

4. Credibility in entertainment occurs as awards (such as Oscars, Emmys, and Grammies) as well as sales, and conducting interviews (on the circuit) artfully. In addition, Courtney Love addresses the question of credibility in her lyrics and interviews.
