Sex 'n' Pop

No other music culture has as many clichés as there is about "Black Music". "Sex 'n' Pop" wants to show the peculiarities of a culture that is still imbued with the legacy of the slave owner society - the very Afro-American culture that has shaped global pop music so sustainably.

In gay and lesbian pop history there was always a game with identities. From playing with “bi” in glam rock of the 70s to the “hypes” of 2004 - “sex 'n' pop” tells the story of a really successful emancipation. How accepted are gays these days? What is the picture in the media? Why are there so few open lesbians in the music business? "Sex 'n' Pop" clarifies.

In Orlando, Florida, not far from Disney World in the middle of the old town is the boy group smithy of Lou Perlman. N Sync and the Backstreet Boys are world stars who owe their careers to Lou Perlman. For the first time, the world's largest maker of girl fantasies for "sex 'n' pop" is letting a camera team into his empire. "Sex 'n' Pop" explores whether it is true that media images produce new bodies. The story of the boy and girl bands is told through the ages, from the Monkees to the Bay City Rollers to the present day

Janet Jackson's fallen top was a planned "Nipplegate", Rammstein's "Bück-Dich" rubber penis show, Madonna's French kiss with Britney Spears and t.A.T.u.'s lesbian show - all calculated provocations and cheap marketing tricks. The experienced pop consumer is no longer easily shocked. He has done the record covers of Jane’s Addiction, Alice Cooper’s woman sacrifice on the scaffold and the hardcore videos and performances of the industrial era. "Sex 'n' Pop" provides a chronicle of the scandals and goes through the process of forming opinions. When is a taboo break really morally reprehensible and when does it contain artistic statements, bring knowledge or comment on social developments? If pop culture is youth culture, how adult must it be? Again and again youth protection and censorship authorities get individual publications from the market.
