Lady Haha
Deriving from the title, "Lavish worlds, and the headwear to match," the author, Jon Pareles explains that Lady Gaga's freakish costumes tend to fascinate our current elaborate world. It's proven in each photograph taken of Lady Gaga that she is a far cry from any other entertainer. This passage of a non- fiction music review that I will speak of throughout this blog is on one of America's most watched artists, Lady Gaga. It speaks about her in general and her performance on wednesday night at the "Radio City Music Hall". This one performance explicates the individuality of Lady Gaga. So whether or not you love Lady Gaga as an artist I will explain how Jon Poral, the author of this passage got me to read the passage of Lady Gaga.
An interesting thing that the author does is brings a certain voice that intrigues readers. His voice is positive, happy, it's enthusiastic, informative, but at the same time has a non- bias approach to it. Her voice like her style are both dissonant. It is explained that Lady Gaga brings a certain flare or style to the music business that no other artist has ever done. Im not just giving my own opinion here, this review includes Known facts about Lady Gaga. At least the positive facts only.
Information that kind of cue me to knowing that this review is based on a performence. The connection that the paragraphs have seem almost as if the author is telling a story based on the same performance. The author starts speaking of lady gaga's opening act, the staging layers, and then finally near the end it says, " she ascended in an orb of rotating silver rings, like a disco angel (p.19)". Wow, now that's over the top.
The author spoke of the performance in a manner that set Lady gaga apart. By giving examples of her lavish outfits from her concerts, how her staging layers were differrent from any other, and complimenting her naturally strong voice are all ways that raised her status. An average reader may be anyone who loves music, specifically pop- music, to anyone looking to be informative about our celeberities lives. Who is this Lady Gaga person? Or what is she up to now? are different questions that different readers may ask. By speaking in a non- bias manner, the writer is able to take into consederation that not all people like or dislikes Lady Gaga. But, If someone is reading an article about Lady Gaga, Thay are either uninformed or just truly adore Lady Gaga.
In a review, first thing that clues a reader into the subject of an article, is the photo. The photo persuaded me to just give it a shot and at least read the first paragraph. I actually ended up reading the whole thing. A photo is big in the sense that it can really speak to your mind.The photo is what will make a reader to stop flipping the page. The photo presented in the review explains everything that the writer was saying about Lady Gaga and more. The photo explains her bizzare choice of outfits, in the photo she wears an outfit made of of raw meat.
The writer pays extra attention to the consideration of the audience that may give their undivided attention to read this music review. Jon Porales does a good job of making choices that reflect an understanding of who the readers are and why they are reading it. You may not need need any special knowledge, vocabulary, or background to understand this review. I read it, do you think that you can?
