analysis of beyonce's poster - mrs carter tour

1. Just fromtaking one quick look at this image we can tell that Beyoncé
wants to be seen as powerful. We may think this due to many
different things shown in this image of her. Things like the crown in
her hair, the spectre, the banner, the gold colours and other colours
shown all symbolisefeatures of a Queen. Beyoncé is known by many
as ‘Queen B’ therefore this ‘queen image’ fits well with her reputation
and character.
Her hair is done up all big which shows shewants to stand out. The
crown in her hair shows shewants to be seen as a queen. She is
wearing red lipstick which shows shewants to come across as
seductive and provocative. Other things that make her seem
seductive is her facial expression as her mouth is open. Also the fact
that her outfit is quite shortso you can see her legs portrays thatkind
of provocativeimage.
The main colours shown in the overallimage is red and gold including
the background, her outfit, the spectreand banner around her. These
colours are massively associated with kings and queens who are
meant to be powerfulpeople. The reason that she wants to come
across as powerfuland sexy is because she may want her fans, mostly
girls, to look up to her and to aspire to be like her. If we were to see in
image of an actual queen it would be completely different to this
because in this image Beyoncé wants to be seen as glamorous. Being
glamorous is seen as a positive thing by many which is why shehas
gone for this kind of image.
‘Beyonce’ is written is big, black writing at the top of the poster. Black
really stands out in frontof the background colours so I think she
wants it to be more of a statement that this is her poster.
