Katy perry's album is named ' one of the boys' however the album cover looks very feminine with the artist in a bikini like top and surrounded by flowers which are a feminine icon.The font in which her name is also very feminine and is in pink.The front of this cover is very complimentry when regarding the colours used within it. However unlike the artists name that is in pink the album name is in blue,'one of the boys'. Therefore subtly showing the traditional views of pink for girls and blue for boys. The artist and her name and album name are placed in the central of the cover, thus showing that this is katy perry and this is her album, very blatantly. The relationship between the text and images use juxter position due to the fact the album is called 'one of the boys', however everything is feminine she has not attempted to look masculine and be 'one of the boys'. The iconography shown in this image it can be suggested that the music will be aimed more at the female audience and that the record player in the right hand corner may suggest that it will be pop music in which consists in this album. And that it will possibly be mainstream as there is a radio on it suggesting her songs will be popular and be played on the radio. There is a white picket fence in the background which are very common in america perhaps subtly showing that the artist is american.
