The font used is firstly san-serif, this means it doesn't have serifs. The font is in bright attractive pink which is stereotypically a female colour, outlined in white making it stand out further. There is also little hearts and stars which are stereotypically female. The writing is also in a large font and stands out from the background, this is because it is the artist name and the label will want you to see who it is and push them out into popular culture. The layout of the CD cover has the artist, Katy Perry, in the middle of the cover which attracts you attention. She is but in the middle of cover to attract your attention because she is stereotypically attractive, and in a exotic pose, the mise-en-scene of using red lipstick and wearing red heels and top which gives the impression of danger and sexuality. The layout of the album shows what is stereotypically the 'perfect' american home; big white house, bright colourful garden flowers, and the white picket fence. The album cover matches Katy's representation of being a fun loving 50's style girl, her clothing and the grammarphone all match the 50's style. She matches the stereotypically representation of the attractive female, including; sexually passive and weak. This album cover has elements of showing conventions, firstly showing the artist on the cover looking glamorous and also having the name of the artist and the album.
