Are you happy with the pop culture era you were born in?

I was born in 1994 and my first memories of being aware of pop culture happenings was with Britney and Baby One More Time. I grew up being a fan of hers, N'Sync, Backstreet Boys, Christina, Shakira, Thalia, Spice Girls, S Club 7, Missy Eliott and all that. Madonna, Kylie and Mariah, while being older than other popstars, were still young enough to play on the radio and on TV and not get completely shut out as they are today (which I think is a shame for today's young generation) so I got to listen and enjoy them a lot. I saw the I'm a Slave 4 U MTV performance and the Madonna kiss live, saw Glitter and Crossroads in theaters and watched TRL every week.

On the movie front, Harry Potter (ENOUGH SAID) plus the books, experienced Pixar since the beginning, the Disney Renaissance, Lord of the Rings, the Star Wars prequels, etc etc.

Also Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Charmed and Angel

I'm pretty happy I was alive and conscious to experience that much iconicness tbh, and I kind of feel for today's teenagers because I know they don't have it as good as we did. Still I would have loved to have experience Madonna, Whitney, Mariah and all those iconic soaps in the 80s and 90s.

What about you? :gaycat:

I wasn't aware of pop culture eras until I was in 1st grade around 2000 or 2001 and these girls performed Baby One More Time for the school talent show

I was born in 1994 like Bedtime Stories and my first pop memory was Believe by Cher. Then it was Music (song), Hung Up, i became a fan of Miley Cyrus round 2007 and then Gaga came, so i've always been good at selecting my taste. Now I hate that our kids think that Work, Panda and 7/11 are the good music. I'd have loved to be DJ in the 80s. I love vinyls, now they just play playlists from Spotify.

I was born in 1997, and I remember Britney's breakdown, Beyoncé's solo career and Gaga's meteoric rise to fame. Everything got pretty stale after 2012 imo.

growing up, pop culture actually had real impact.

poor first graders learning to dance to 'work'

The 90's pop music didn't really impress me.

I was born in 1990, but only started to listen to pop artists in 2010: first Gaga, then Lana (quite indifferent to others tbh :laughga:) and I'm glad to have been able to witness those two, although I would prefer to be born ≈5 years later so that I could live through Gaga's glorious eras in high school, it would have made it much easier I believe :)

What's not to like? 1984 is iconic :gaycat:

Many of them still a thing to revisit even by younger generations, such as this

 

or this

 

or this

 

or this

 

And John Galliano first ever fashion show

 

And cultish Ghost Buster movie

 

And this

 

And this

 

Not to mention, people who were born around these timea will experience the maximum effect of the 1990s glories. :gaycat:
