American Idol By Kristina Kotyza, Judith Valadez, Jessica Donahue, Spencer Smith, and Michael Garofalo

Gender The gender on the reality TV show American Idol is very interesting Of the final 12 contestants there were six males and six females As the singers got voted off, more females got voted off than males and now the final two has become two men because Syesha was voted out. Besides the singers, the judges have different gender by having two men and one woman Simon and Randy are always criticizing and making fun of Paula. They make Paula look Crazy and Mental.

Race In the reality show, American Idol, there are different races for the last three competitors. David Archuleta, David Cook, and Syesha Mercado Two of the judges are white and one of them are black Since Syesha is the only African American contestant remaining most African-American voters will want to vote for her David Archuleta’s parents are from Honduras And David Cook is from Houston, Texas

Class Our definition of class- Being categorized by wealth or the place you live. Some categories are, Lower class, middle class, upper middle class, and upper class. You are put in a certain class by wealth, or where you live. People may change class categories if something good or bad happens to them.

How class relates to American Idol. Many contestants on American Idol went on the show for the money The money was an incentive for people to get on the show. Many of the contestants have low paying jobs. The show is an opportunity to make more money Past winners and losers have gone from rags to riches using the show to help them get there.

Age In American Idol, Contestant’s ages vary amongst the singers. American Idol also forbids many contestants that want to try out to perform in the contest. Technically, American Idol is saying that some age groups are better than others. Teens that are below the age of sixteen can’t try out and adults above the age 40 can’t try out as well.

Idol Takes Back On American Idol, they do a charity event called Idol Gives Back. This may be seen as and act of kindness, but Idol is definitely doing this for other reasons. Idol wants to make themselves look good. They want to be portrayed as kind, human beings who just want to make their TV show another way to help children in Africa. They want to be more popular because people will think they are so generous. This is a VERY good thing they are doing, but also they just want to “spice” up their show with all of the celebrities.

Overall, American Idol is a simple show with hidden controversial themes. These themes include gender, age, class, and race. Next time you watch American Idol think about these hidden themes.
