Miley Cyrus


Is her audience what is presumed to be a traditional male-dominated, rock-and-roll audience, or have they significance for female fans?

Miley Cyrus is currently extremely popular among female fans across the globe. Girls of many ages strive to be like Miley and follow her every move. Although Miley is a performing artist, she also has a very popular TV show on Disney channel, Hannah Montana. Because of her show she has been able to draw in even more fans of many ages. I’m sure that some boys also like Miley, and think she is attractive, but for the most part, her fan base is female dominated.

 

Do her fans constitute a specific subculture as would many fans of Marilyn Manson, Morrissey, or The Cure?

Because Miley Cyrus’s fans are so young, I wouldn’t say that they make up a very strong subculture as could be seen among other popular artists. Her fans do however have many similarities with one another. For the most part they are young females, who like to be “girly”. You could probably find her fans supporting her by wearing her t-shirts, accessories, or even a blonde wig to look like Hannah.
