Emotional Analysis Of Revenge Body By Khloe Kardashian

The article “Revenge: will you feel better,” author Karyn Hall (2013) claims that while the temptation of revenge may be convincing, acting upon these urges is not always worth the consequences after. Hall contemplates the idea of revenge being “self destructive” and being harmful to both those giving and receiving revenge. Furthermore the article states People who have been hurt seem to believe that if the other party suffers, then they will feel better and that their emotional pain will lessen. This idea is later touch on towards the end of the article when author explains the idea of the “understanding hypothesis”, which is when the offender knows the connection between the original insult and the retaliation. In contrast, the author also

Throughout the commercial sick children and shown being given different tests and laying in hospital beds. By showing these images the audience feels a sense of fear, loss, pain, and grief, even though they do not personally know the children. By not donating the audience does feel responsible for these sick children potentially losing their lives. At the same time the commercial causes such negative feelings, it also provides positive ones such as hope and pride. By donating to St. Jude’s hospital a child’s life can be saved and that is because of you. This is effective for St. Jude’s because most people would rather feel positive feelings rather than negative, so they are more likely to call and donate to keep that positive feeling going. Also, ending the advertisement on a positive note by telling the audience “You can bring them that hope” the audience is drawn into pathos all over

Many young women suffer from eating disorders. Criticized and shamed by the many for their body, weight, and looks, insecurities are abundant in these women. Especially female celebrities, whom are constantly held to unreachable standards by the public. These insecurities can lead to a plethora of psychological problems or disorders, including eating disorders. An eating disorder is defined as “an illness that causes serious disturbances to your everyday diet, such as eating extremely small amounts of food or severely overeating” by the National Institution of Mental Health. In the past few years, many celebrities have come out as suffering from an eating disorder, one of the more recent to be the pop star Kesha.

“Losing weight is hard enough: you faint, you vomit, you stop menstruating but it’s even harder when you do not have the support of the people around you,” she said. “Even when I did lose twenty five pounds, my friends were so jealous, telling me I looked terrible. My mom is the worst of all. She’s just afraid that if I am thin and beautiful, it will make her look bad.” Fernandez is sick of her mom, therapist, the paramedics, and doctors trying to control her. “They do not have to live in this horrible body, I do.”

“Dying to be Thin,” produced by PBS, is a documentary that examines the troubles that persons who are affected by eating disorders go through and the constant, daily struggles they face with health and body image. The film tells the story of a number of young women who battled mainly anorexia and bulimia and mixes a variety of ages to give a “during” and an “after” perspective. Many of the women in the video were ballet or some similar type of dancer. Dancers, by their own account, are encouraged to be thin. The issue really came to the forefront after a young ballet dancer from Boston died of heart failure at the young age of 22, with an eating disorder deemed to be the cause. The narrator goes on to introduce more young women and detail the potential illnesses that their eating disorders can cause. Chronic low blood pressure, kidney and liver damage, severe early osteoporosis, and heart failure are all common things seem in patients who suffer from eating disorders. Most patients have dangerously low body weights, body fat percentages, and, often, young women will experience amenorrhea, which is the loss of menstruation. All of the people in the video wanted to be better and were seeking a road to recovery. The video showed though, how difficult that can be since the eating disorders can be so wide ranging and have a number of different root causes. Often patients develop eating disorders as something that they have control over, in a world that they feel is out of their

Diet companies like Jenny Craig search for the right stars to endorse their brand. The stars need to be relatable to the women and men. Not just because of their celebrity status, but for their life struggles. That is why Valerie Bertinelli seems to be the winning edge for the company. Bertinelli has struggled with divorce, drug use and food addiction (www.abc.news.com). She has been open about this and the public, women, love her. She is the next door neighbor. After all over half of the country has struggled with divorce and the drug use is an issue that is also relatable. The public remembers Bertinelli from the TV show, “One Day at a Time”. The women purchasing the program can relate. They are around the same age and most have been through some of her issues. Bertinelli shows that a star goes through the same issues as the non stars go through.

The target audience has mainly been women. The National Eating Disorder Association (NEDA) states that about twenty million women in the United States struggle with anorexia, bulimia, or a binge-eating disorder (Gies, Jacqueline and Martino, Sarah). This has widely been because of our culture and what we are told is the ideal woman through everyday art

Don’t feel so bad about regaining that lost weight. Not even the “The Biggest Losers” have managed to keep their slim physiques. But guess what? It’s not their fault — and it may not be yours either.

Brittany’s situation impacted me the most because the reason that I always want to get thin is the same as her. She had a very strong feeling to get thin because she really cared about how people think about her. This kind of concern came from the experience from her young age. People’s perspectives were like knives, which poked her heart or cut her skin, so she felt extreme pain and depress from it. When she had to leave the center to keep going on her normal life, I felt that she was really not ready to leave, so at that time I guessed that she would not go on a normal life like a normal person. At the end of the video, the video mentioned that she began to restrict again and lost weight. I think the main reason on her situation is that her psychological problem has never been solved, so she continues to be depressing, and her depression reflexes on the eating

The book breaks down the stereotype of what an eating disorder really is. In today’s society having an eating disorder means that you have some kind of “psychological frailty or illness” (1). When thinking about those that have eating disorders typically it is “young, middle to upper class, heterosexual white women” comes to mind (1). Their motivation is to take on the unrealistic appearance of models and reach the “standards created by advertisers and clothing designers” (1). The author in no regards is trying to down play women that have eating disorders because of the pressure of the media but is showing that there are other people and reasons for having eating disorders. This image that we currently have leaves out “women of color,

Katy Perry, a well-known American pop artist, delivers a message of social awareness in her song and music video titled,“Chained to the Rhythm.” In “Chained to the Rhythm,” the singer asserts that people in American society should not isolate themselves from, and or ignore the problems in the community.

Consumers think if the Kardashian’s are able to look this way using the product then they must be telling the truth, and it truly must be doing what they say it does. Through these words, the sisters are getting their audience to admit to the fact that they are in a way unhappy with their bodies, and that they do want to make changes. At the end of the dialogue, Kim says, “create the body you deserve…how hot can you be?” Here she is insinuating that due to what this product is supposed to do, make you lose weight fast, you will be viewed as attractive.

When a person uses another to gain money, power or goods, it is self-centered. These television shows are based around bringing together two people who have never met in the past, based on the fact that one of the two individuals have money. Choosing to be in a relationship on the basis that the later has money will lead to unhappiness. With no love and only money keeping the two connected, in time things will become difficult. (Poniewozik) Countless couples who participate in these television shows do not last more then a year before realizing that the money is not worth being with somebody you do not love or get along with. While individual people who are taken over with greed usually affect smaller portions of the population, the more power a greedy person has, the more people are affected. This idea is shown with the Nike Corporation.

The team tried to make the situations realistic and relatable. They based their advertisements off of their findings from their focus groups. For example they stayed away from using celebrities in most of their ads because they were perceived to be less credible than ordinary boys of girls.
