- - - - Marilyn Monroe :girl::skin-tone-3:
        
        'dumb beauty' - plays on dumb blonde stereotype that is represented in a male society.
        
        'filmed her harder, harder till her hair was platinum' - quite sexual with repetition of 'harder' and 'platinum' conveys the over exposure to the media, Monroe is bleached by the saturation
        
        Diana :crown:
        
        'she's elegant bone' - eating disorder. Trying to look good for the media/ in general because of the pressure society puts on her for being royalty.
        
        'empty head' - again, the dumb blonde stereotype
        
        Helen of Troy :dress:
        
        'She won the heart of every man she saw.' 'enchanted' - Her beauty is so powerful over men
        
        Cleopatra :snake: :(
- - - - 'skipping breakfast, lunch, dinner, thinner' - sounds like a strict routine
        
        'skin and bone'
        
        'Anorexia's true daughter' - ref. to ED. She's like a 'daughter' in that Anorexia's supposed to care for her and help her out, but in reality its unhealthy and doesn't look after her really.
        
        'started to grow smaller, child-sized, doll-sized' - dehumanizing her
        
        'guns for hips' - dangerous imagery, suggests what she's doing is dangerous and destructive to her own self/health
        
        'a shadow' - loses identity as she decays
