Language - The double page spread features a Medium Close Up so that we can see who the article is talking about, the black and white style photo is one of the house style features of Q magazine. The fact that the large L in the background of the writing shows us the L for Lady Gaga, this enforces who the article is about, the colour is also the same as the Q masthead.
Institution - The institution for Q Magazine is Bauer Media Group.
Ideology - This double page spread wants to show off the fact that Lady Gaga has come back and she's better than she was, she's got a new look but she's not all new, as shown throught the use of the black and white image, this is due to the fact that black and white photos are seen as old and thus she would be seen as old, there are also other meanings behind using black and white photographs due ot the fact that many artistic photo graphs are taken in black and white.
Audience - Fans of Lady Gaga and general readers of Q magazine, people who might be curious about the article in general and people who are fans of the music genre.
Representation - The double page spread simply shows off how easy she is as a person, this is due to the fact that it seems as though she is looking you in the eyes, this is seen usually as a sign of respect that you are both equals, there is also the representation that due to the fact that she seems to be not wearing much she might live as sort of a free spirit sort of thing, or it could be the opposite since she seems to be wearing chains around her neck.
