Pop Culture: Pop Icons Edition⭐
Beyonce, Michael Jackson, Marilyn Monroe, Michael Jordan, Madonna, Stan Lee, what do all of these names have in common? I'll tell you, they're all extremely famous pop icons. These are just a few in the many names of people who've made their name known not only in history but in pop culture. They've have come to be regarded as pop icons which are otherwise described celebrities, and characters or things whose gained popularity during their respective era. The term pop icon is given to a person, character, or an object whose popularity will stan until the end of time. Pop icons are going to be known as people/things/characters whom you can recognize in an instant. They're people who because of their success and popularity have impacted our world, society, and culture. While researching I saw this criteria to know if someone is a pop icon, it said:
- "Do they pass the one-name test?
- Can you dress up as them for Halloween?
- Did they blaze a trail in pop culture?
- Did they create a signature character in pop culture?
- Can you quote them (or their character) in 10 seconds or less? (Do they have a catchphrase?)
- Did society imitate their sense of fashion? Hairstyle?
- Did "SNL" create a sketch satirizing them?
- Did someone write a song about them?
- Was or is there merchandising/paraphernalia that bears their image"?
