o Another part of the theory suggests that women are portrayed only ever in one of two ways – a ‘virginal innocent character’ or a ‘sexy whore’. This is the virgin/whore dichotomy.

THEORIES
Pixie Lott - ‘All About Tonight’
This can be considered as a ‘sexy whore’ image, where she dresses and dances provocatively, but maintains her sexiness through the confidence and attitude of her performance.
Leona Lewis - ‘A Moment Like This’
This is Lewis at her debut and it shows a pure, innocent image of the singer and this can be considered as where the woman is portrayed as a ‘virginal innocent character’. Her ballad style kept her image pure and innocent and she is often portrayed as such in a lot of her videos.
