Pink’s “
Stupid Girls” video satirically takes on all the dumb pretty girls in the entertainment industry ranging from Britney to the Olsen Twins, but also conveys a serious message about the messages these shallow, Hollywood types are sending our impressionable young women. In the end, will the girl pick the Barbie or the football? People who have seen
the Stupid Girls video will undoubtedly be arguing about this point—an indication that this fun, but profound video has hit a nerve. Three cheers for Pink for taking the gloves off and challenging the destructive images of women found in the media today. Somebody had to do it.
