PINK - Stupid Girls

Listening to my ipod the other day, Pink's song, "Stupid Girls" shuffled onto my playlist and I thought I'd write a post about it! This song doesn't quite deal with sexuality but gender is right on.

"What happened to the dreams of a girl president
She's dancing in the video next to 50 Cent"

In this verse of the song, Pink is stating that girls dreams are no longer about becoming big and successful but more about the attention that they can receive from guys. And by being in music videos (or in any spotlight) then they feel they are more better off in life.

"Maybe if I act like that, that guy will call me back
Porno Paparazzi girl, I don't wanna be a stupid girl"

In this part shes saying that by acting stupid, it's cute. Playing like you are a stupid girl will get all the guys attention. Which, it doesn't. But a lot of girls do have that impression that if they come off as stupid then a guy won't be as intimated by them and then they'll get a date.

The music video for this song depicts how the media shows girls. Pink did a good job by acting out roles in which girls think is "hot" because guys find it attractive.

It's worth listening to and it used to be a pretty popular song a few years back!
