I chose these 2 particular Got Milk Ads to compare because they are both of popular music artists that are in similar genres and have similar fan bases. While Rihanna is a sex symbol for many men, Chris Brown is just as equally a sex
symbol for women. However, in these two ads, it is Rihanna who is laying on the ground seductively with her cleavage in clear shot. Her lips are pouted, she is in a sexy dress, and her eyes are staring at the camera inviting the viewer in. Even though this is just a simple Milk ad, specifically targeted towards younger audiences it still seems to sexualize the woman. In Chris Brown's ad it has him jumping in the air tipping off his hat with a goofy look on his face. This is not a sexually explicit ad by any means and instead portrays the male as fun and harmless but the female as a sexual predator.
