Katy Perry's Hot N Cold music video and song displays stereotypes/ideologies of women and men in American culture. For instant in the beginning of the music video Katy is getting married to a guy. When Katy is asked if she will take him as her husband she responds with "I do," right away. But when the guy is asked he stands their quietly. They even put in a shot of just his neck, and you see him gulp. I believe that this is a stereotype that is seen a lot in todays pop culture. The girl is overly obsessed with the guy, and the guy does not care about the girl at all. The guy "Alexander" gets cold feet and runs out of the church. The whole song is basically about how guys jump from girl to girl all the time or how guys are players. Which is a stereotype of men, and is not always true. Katy chases him out of the church like a crazy person, which goes back to the stereotype that women are obsessed with mea and love. The song, I believe also talks about how girls crawl back to guys easily. When she says, "You don't really wanna stay, no." That refers to guys moving from girl to girls quickly and getting bored easily. In conclusion this song is another of the girl chases the guy stereotypes songs just like many others.
