Image of Rock Stars

Many people have an image in their head of what a rock star looks like. Usually it consists of the picture to the right. The long hair with the leather jacket and pants. Usually doing something crazy. 

But that "Rock Star" look goes back to the early days of rock. It has gone through many different phases with the bell-bottom jeans to the leather jackets as the picture. The clothing has died down and now is mostly just a t-shirt with a fancy print on it. An article I found said that the wild and crazy outfits is what makes a rock star. They need to be adventurous and stick out. We have found that out in many different ways.

Another article that I found gave peoples stereotypes of rock and the ones who perform it and a lot of people thought that the people in rock are the ones who do drugs and don’t accomplish anything in life. But on that same site I found people who thought the complete opposite. I think it is funny how there is many different viewpoints on what the stereotype is and how it can be so drastic.
