The list of celebrities and artists who are fed up with the censorship of the woke mob just got a LOT sexier. Singer, songwriter, clothing impresario, and fan of “Harajuku” culture and street clothes Gwen Stefani AIN’T. HAVIN IT.
This s**t is bananas. The gorgeous rocker and pop star (Yeah. She does all kinds of music. Get some culture, newbs.) has been accused time and again by frumpy grouches like Margaret Cho and other sick-minded leftists of “cultural appropriation” because she wore a clothing style popular in Japan and also had Japanese back-up dancers who wore the same style.
WHAT A CRIME!
I’m not kidding about them going after her. Margaret Pork Chop did a big op-ed about it which I won’t link to back in the early 2000s throwing a hissy and invoking “minstrel shows.” Guess what Gwen Stefani did?
Nothing. She ignored fatso and kept being hot and exercising her freedoms. And in a new interview she was asked her feelings on the subject and she hasn’t changed her mind.
“I had this idea that I would have a posse of girls — because I never got to hang with girls — and they would be Japanese, Harajuku girls, because those are the girls that I love. Those are my homies,” Stefani told Paper. “That’s where I would be if I had my dream come true, I could go live there and I could go hang out in Harajuku.”
Stefani also insisted that the rules of cultural appropriation are divisive and stop the sharing of beauty.
“If we didn’t buy and sell and trade our cultures in, we wouldn’t have so much beauty, you know?” Stefani said. “We learn from each other, we share from each other, we grow from each other. And all these rules are just dividing us more and more.”
HOW GREAT IS THAT?? It’s almost like she has AMERICAN VALUES.
I thought those were dead in the arts. But apparently not. She’s also not in love with social media, which puts big giant hearts in my eyes.
“I think that we grew up in a time where we didn’t have so many rules,” she said while being gorgeous. “We didn’t have to follow a narrative that was being edited for us through social media, we just had so much more freedom.”
Amen.
You gotta love a beautiful, talented, smart, beautiful singer who isn’t afraid to tell people to let her be her beautiful self. Ain’t that what America is about?
BTW, Blake Shelton… congrats brother. Good on ya.
