Self representation

Self-representation

What media figures (actors, musicians, sportspeople, celebrities) do you consider similar to you. In what way are they similar to you/ are you similar to them?

 

Jeremy Clarkson

The first media figure that I would consider myself similar to is Jeremy Clarkson. Even though I do not appear to be similar to him, there is one thing that we both have in common which are cars. We both share a love for fast cars such as Lamborghinis and Ferraris. I also picked Clarkson out of the three hosts of Top Gear since it appears we both share the same sort of sense of humour 

Russell Howard

The second media figure that I would say that I was similar to is Russell Howard, who also happens to be my favourite comedian. I believe the similarities between me and Howard comes from our clothing. We both have a similar ‘casual’ style which mainly consists of a pair of jeans and a t-shirt. I also share the same sort of sense of humour as Russell Howard. I can tell this due to the fact that I am a fan of pretty much whatever he does and find his material very funny.

My style

I mostly dress in a casual way which usually consists of a t-shirt and either shorts or jeans in all weather conditions. I usually wear converse or plimsoll type shoes such as Vans. The only accessory I constantly wear is my watch which is a black/blue G-Shock.

UK Tribes

After looking at the UK tribes websites and all the types of tribes, I would consider myself two be part of two tribes. The first is the 'Townies'. I consider myself part of this tribe because I feel I can relate to how it is described. I think I am someone who 'goes with the flow' and keep up to date with what is happening in the media. I also am a big fan of football but not a full on fanatic. The other group I consider myself to be a part of is Sports Junkies. I think this because I am a fan of most sports and like to play most sports.
