Madonna is wearing little clothing and posing in a sexual way following the male gaze theory and is another example of trying to sell music through sex appeal.

The date of the album is clear so people know when they can buy it and it can be ‘hyped’ up.

The bubblegum pink matches the album’s name of ‘Hard Candy’ but is also very vibrant which will stand out on a poster when people would walk past it.

The album’s name is in blue clashing against the pink so it clearly stands out and the audience know what’s the album is called.

Tagline’s that will stick into people’s head, making them think of the album and eventually want to buy it.

Madonna’s name isn’t on the poster because it doesn’t need to be as she’s already so famous her image is recognised with it having to be obvious.
