Things that represent "popularity" most often concern how well a person interacts within a group. However, some "popular" persons can actually be quite mean in their interactions, and try to dominate others, including people outside of the group. Often, when a "popular" person is dethroned from their position by a more popular person, it's easy to see that the "popular" person is pretty much the same as anyone else, with their own insecurities, worries, needs to be liked and accepted, and their own personal pain.

As visual markers, often people who are "popular" also have or are perceived to have:

  • more money than others
  • possibly their own car ; new car
  • nice clothes, the latest fashions
  • perfect hair
  • lots of nice jewelry
  • lots of makeup
  • always go to the mall
