Definición

  • As manifested in the late 1980s and throughout the 1990s, the boy band formula is to combine somewhere between three and six (typically four or five) young, singing and dancing males; to have each represent a distinct personality type; to carefully choreograph their (individual and band) images as closely as their dance steps; and to mass-market them to an audience consisting mostly of preteen and teenage girls. Such bands often play a unique role in the lives of preteen and young teen girls, serving as a bridge between childhood and adolescence.
