Psb vs Media!!!

#1 Post by GalataPSB »

In my country, Media calls the PSB "famous English group / Duo" The most successful duo of English music Industry"....

But In English newspapers I always see "Gay icon Neil Tennant / Chris Lowe from the Pet shop Boys, OR 'Gay band'....

After PSB released a single, Media search for a connection between the song and Homosexuality!

Psb, flamboyant, homosexuality...
Psb, potemkin, homosexuality...

I think, Media does`nt like The pet shop Boys!!! (In England)They categorize them as just an ordinary gay- band! And I really dont like reading this kind of things!! Am I right???

The problem is some countries are not English speakers and they don't understand all the words PSB use in their songs. If they knew that probably they would think the same.

Although I believe the blame of that comes in part from PSB and in part from English tabloids.

It doesn't only happen to the Pets though. It's always "gay pop star" Will Young/George Michael/Elton John et cetera in some spheres of the British media. The press just have a need to pigeon hole everyone. Kylie and Madonna are sex pots, Oasis are yobs, Robbie is tortured and lonely. I wouldn't worry about it too much - just read better newspapers!

You are right. This is stereo-typing, and it's not a good thing.
