In the early 1990s, a video arrived on MTV screens to hypnotize us with its aesthetics but above all for giving us the most beautiful women in the world in the front row and reminding us that we can always improve.
The video, for George Michael’s song “Freedom! ’90,” featured five of the world’s most famous supermodels at the time — Cindy Crawford, Naomi Campbell, Christy Turlington, Linda Evangelista, and Tatjana Patitz — lip-synching to the song. The video was directed by David Fincher and is known for its striking visuals and its subversive take on the role of women in popular culture.
The video had a significant impact on feminism, helping to pave the way for more realistic and empowering representations of women in popular culture.
The video also had a significant impact on young girls, particularly in terms of their body image and self-esteem. The video featured five of the world’s most beautiful and successful women, and it was seen by many young girls as an ideal to aspire to. This led to some girls feeling pressure to conform to an unrealistic standard of beauty, which could have negative consequences for their mental and physical health.
However, the video also had some positive impacts on young girls. It showed them that it was possible to be beautiful and successful without being perfect. It also showed them that women could be strong, independent, and in control of their own lives. This could have helped to empower young girls and give them the confidence to be themselves.
Don’t forget to turn up the volume and sing along while we thank the Supermodels for the memories and of course to George Michel for this endless gift
