So, what about Gossip Girl?
Gossip Girl is an American television series that is widely watched by thousands of people around the world. However, the show is known to have received some very negative feedbacks especially about the culture that is potrayed on screen.
One of the aspects of this negative culture is the amount of materialism that is displayed through the characters on the tv series. As an example, most of the girls from the upper east side are more into branded goods and they travel all over around the world with their private jet planes.
Besides that, the series is pretty judgemental too. Like for example, the rich ones only hangs out with the famous and rich. And usually, the ones that comes from the average family backgrounds are bullied by them.
Gossip Girl gives the image that teenagers can be reckless and irresponsible.

i've met some frens who will only wear branded shirt

agreed!
ReplyDeletei don't know why some people would have the mindset that branded are definitely good stuffs. thats not all true!
for example forever21's clothes. some of them are made from china and selling at very unreasonable price (that's what i personally thinks) but yet people would choose to buy it from there.
lets say if you see the exact same piece from pasar malam selling at a very cheap price, i dont think anyone is gonna buy it especially those who only shops at shopping malls. the first word that appears in their mind would be, "IMITATION!!"
Vivian
yea, the quality of the shirt is not good at all
ReplyDeleteits like abit transparent
it not good at all !
but its selling with a super high price -.-''
so i dont like to shop kat sana =P
cih
as long as the shirt/dress etc has quality I don't really care about the brand.But I guess it depends on how you have been brought up..what kind of family you come from, your socio-economic status, your aspirations, your principles etc. But to a certain extent, it can make you want to be, feel like you wanna b just like them..Even though we know it is not reality.......
