Sex Role Analysis
In 20th place for most followed instagram accounts is Katy Perry at 106 million followers.
What struck me at first glance when looking at her feed was that most of her posts were about her music. This contrasts the typical sex role because women are usually portrayed as domestic.
I also noticed that her feed was colorful and features bright artwork and animations to promote her album. Bright colors, specifically pastels are thought as more feminine colors. In addition, to many people, posting about artwork may be considered feminine as well.
Besides posting about her new album/single, she posted her handbag and t-shirt collections. Both of these products are feminine products.
