  • One Direction Infection: Media Representations of Boy Bands and Their Fans
    One Direction Infection: Media Representations of Boy Bands and their Fans Annie Lyons TC 660H Plan II Honors Program The University of Texas at Austin December 2020 __________________________________________ Renita Coleman Department of Journalism Supervising Professor __________________________________________ Hannah Lewis Department of Musicology Second Reader 2 ABSTRACT Author: Annie Lyons Title: One Direction Infection: Media Representations of Boy Bands and their Fans Supervising Professors: Renita Coleman, Ph.D. Hannah Lewis, Ph.D. Boy bands have long been disparaged in music journalism settings, largely in part to their close association with hordes of screaming teenage and prepubescent girls. As rock journalism evolved in the 1960s and 1970s, so did two dismissive and misogynistic stereotypes about female fans: groupies and teenyboppers (Coates, 2003). While groupies were scorned in rock circles for their perceived hypersexuality, teenyboppers, who we can consider an umbrella term including boy band fanbases, were defined by a lack of sexuality and viewed as shallow, immature and prone to hysteria, and ridiculed as hall markers of bad taste, despite being driving forces in commercial markets (Ewens, 2020; Sherman, 2020). Similarly, boy bands have been disdained for their perceived femininity and viewed as inauthentic compared to “real” artists— namely, hypermasculine male rock artists. While the boy band genre has evolved and experienced different eras, depictions of both the bands and their fans have stagnated in media, relying on these old stereotypes (Duffett, 2012). This paper aimed to investigate to what extent modern boy bands are portrayed differently from non-boy bands in music journalism through a quantitative content analysis coding articles for certain tropes and themes.

It’s been another fun year at CD Central! Certainly one filled with ups and downs (thinking about the Limestone road project here) but the bottom line is we’ve enjoyed bringing some great music to Lexington, both live and on disc. This booklet is our annual recap of some of the year’s brightest musical highlights. One of the great things we can look back at this year is our participation in Local First Lexington. All of the members of LFL are locally-owned, independent businesses who do great things for our community. These are the businesses that make Lexington a unique place among a sea of national chain stores. Please make it one of your New Year’s resolutions to “Think Local First” when making your buying decisions in the coming year. It feels good to shop local and it makes Lexington a better place.

    February 3, 2010 West Word Web Exclusives Reviewers offer 2009’s best in music and gameplaying Lady Gaga leads list w Hillary Lindwall w Managing Editor A new year has begun, and that means that means more outstanding titles for both the music and video game industry. However, the new year also provides an opportunity to look back at some of the most memorable titles of the past year, thus West Word has compiled a list of the top five albums and the top ten video games of 2009. 5. Owl City—Ocean Eyes Many may remember “Fireflies,” the surprising single from this album. Many may not remember, however, how truly good the rest ofOcean Eyes is. The sophomore album from Owl City, a one-man-band consisting of Adam Young, Ocean Eyes is made up of a series of synthpop songs. The soothing voice of Young, along with his synthesized beats and notes, make this album truly unique, earning it a spot in the list of the top five albums of 2009. 4. Train—Save Me, San Francisco Although many may only know Train because of their most famous song “Jupiter,” their newest single “Hey Soul Sister” from their album Save Me, San Francisco could give “Jupiter” a run for its money. After hearing “Hey Soul Sister,” this reviewer wanted to hear what other surprises were awaiting discovery from Pat Monahan and the gang. Save Me, San Francisco is an album that is soothing yet exciting. Every song sounds different and is very catchy, making Save Me, San Francisco number four on the countdown.
