Representation of the Motley Crue in 'Girls,Girls, Girls'

Motley Crue - 'Girls, Girls, Girls'

In the music video 'Girls, Girls, Girls' by the Motley Crue, it shows that they want to be represented as 'rebelious' or 'bad' linking to the rock era. This shows in the video by:

• The clothes they wear - leather jackets, dark sunglasses, also there hairstyles.
• The setting - dark bar/club with girls dancing around (strippers) with little clothing on.
• Props - Such as the motorbikes at the beggining, immeditley giving the viewer a feel/idea of the video and music to come. Other things such as the alcohol, ciggarettes and money add to the rockstar, rebelious idea.
• The way the act - As soon as the video beggins, one of the Motley Crue members enters the bar/club and throws a knife at the table to get the existing members to move. Also the way the act around the dancing women e.g. putting money in their clothes and acting rowdy.

The Motley Crue want to be potrayed as this because of their target audience and the style of their music (heavy metal). The video and how the band wants to be portrayed also links in with the 1980's rock era. (Where rock starts didnt just play music, they had to portay a certain look to be interesting).
