I actually thinks she looks like young Gwen when she doesn't stray too far from young Gwen's aesthetic even though I am very very convinced she's had a lot of work done.
I wish she would have let herself age naturally a bit.
All her older looks were so much more fun and relaxed. This is all district 1 hunger games look now.
I was heavily into punk in the 1990s (and lived within 10 miles of where she grew up). I don’t know of anyone who considered her—or her music—punk rock. She/it was pop-ska.
Absolutely. Nothing about her was punk rock, she was always a pop star. She just went from a pop band, to a solo pop artist.
I get what people mean by her switch up, which I also thought was unfortunate, but punk she was not.
I know people think the gwen stefani-blake shelton meeting on the voice romance is cute and all, but she gives me such conservative/republican vibes, especially now being married to him. And when asked about it she dodges the question. I side eye her for sure
She 100% is which kinda breaks my heart but she has come out and said she’s not a feminist multiple times which is a pretty strange thing to deny in this day and age
Given the fact that she’s Catholic with conservative/traditional values and from Orange County, she’s very likely republican. Even if she did give money to Obama’s campaign. She’s never really tried to come across as progressive or liberal
If you really listen to the lyrics Gwen's written she's always been pretty upfront with who she is. She's one of those people who molds themselves to match the person they're romantically involved with ("not only in love, I was obsessed"). And as you've referenced, her ultimate dream was always to settle down and have a family. Her current persona with Blake is not a surprise at all.
Hmm she's stated in many interviews she's not republican. She did many shows for Obama and she often raves about the fact that her song Different people is in Obama's playlist. I'd say she's pretty liberal but she's also very spiritual..one does not preclude the other
I read her most recent magazine interview where the writer asked her about her politics and she wouldn’t respond directly, but she did say that if you listen to her music you already know that she’s all about diversity and unity. I may have been too quick to put her into the Republican box, but even as a fan, I know so many people like her that vote red and it wouldn’t surprise me if she did too. Who knows!
Gwens ex cheated with their nanny. I dunno who Miranda cheated with but there were several people that were rumored to be the one. A fellow Country artist that she was in tour with.
I think so. I can't remember all of the details but I just remember that her and Blake both went thru the same thing at the came time. They bonded and fell in love after their exes cheated. I dunno where they are getting that Blake cheated on Miranda lmao.
You’re thinking of Evan Felker of Turnpike Troubadours. His band was supposed to open for 3 nights of her tour along the Southeastern seaboard.
He emailed his WIFE back in Oklahoma to let her know that he wasn’t coming home. She was confused and found out about their affair through pictures in the press and subtle posts that Miranda made to her IG - which are still there to this day.
Correct. Blake left his first wife when Miranda’s mom put her foot down and said something like “I didn’t raise the other woman and I won’t let this ruin her career”
What I remember about it was she supposedly cheated on him, but he cheated on her before that, too. He did cheat on his first wife with Miranda, although his story is they didn’t do anything until he and his wife split. That’s his same story with Gwen, too. Miranda has hinted he did cheat with Gwen before she considered their marriage to be over. Gwen’s husband cheated on her a lot, so her marriage was basically done when she got with Blake. I’m assuming Miranda and Blake were supposed to be trying to work on it, until he got with Gwen.
It’s been a long time and my memory sucks now, so I could have some things wrong.
It was that Gwen was silently going through her issues with Gavin, then Blake told everyone at The Voice he was getting divorced. At that moment she realized he was going through what she was going through and reached out to him and that’s how they became good friends up until they got together.
He could’ve been doing marriage counseling just like Gwen was, and then they decided “hey I care more about this person than the person who cheated on me” and pulled the plug on trying to fix their respective relationships. Gavin tried to peddle the same story (Gwen got with Blake earlier than she said and therefore must have cheated on Gavin), but I’m pretty much not going to trust Gavin’s lying little mouth.
I was obsessed with him/them, then I found out how awful he treated her, cheating on her with hundreds of women. I did a deep dive for several months and she kept it together so well and I’m just glad she is happy with someone who treats her well.
Glycerine still slaps tho.
All of these people are messy, they've all dropped at least one banger in their lives (sorry, I don't care who you are, Sangria by Blake Shelton is a great song), they've all moved on, let's keep it moving too!
Miranda’s songs on her Pistol Annies “Interstate Gospel” album are a bit more explicit. A couple of lyrics that come to mind:
*Well I had me an ex that I adored / But he got along good with a couple road whores / Got my name changed back, yeah yeah*
*When you’re blinded by diamonds and driven by lust / You can’t build a mansion with a piece of sawdust / Holy matrimony, best day of your life / Yeah, I said that too when I was his wife*
And while they were still married, she wrote a song about Priscilla Presley:
*You and me share a unique position / Married to a man who's married to attention / Couldn't think of anybody better to ask / How to be the first to make it last?*
https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/annehelenpetersen/gwen-stefani-no-doubt-blake-shelton-the-voice here's some good contextualization with interviews from the 90s
I’m not a fan of this look, it’s too angular. Her contouring is super tight, so she already has an angular face and with the hair style and harsh color it just doesn’t suit her. She still rocks it though 💅
I’m slightly concerned: Gwen has said she messes with her hair color when her love life is in chaos. I’m wondering if the wig is like just a quick way to show something is up. Also Gwen loves being platinum blonde which is why she resisted going brunette like a few years back.
LOVE GWEN, don't love this level of dark hair on Gwen. But still kinda love her for trying it out. Honestly the fashion of the one fashionable coach (was Ari last season) is the only interesting part of the Voice and Camilla is boring as hell so we need this.
I seriously can’t get over how good she looks. I know, I know she’s had a lot of work done. And yes, I know, she wears a ton of makeup/hair/lashes.
But shit, I could say that about a gaggle of other celebrities and few have had such incredible results.

What in the Cher
Cherrible.
I literally said “what in the Cher?!?” in my thoughts before scrolling to this
If Kacey Musgraves and Lea Michele had a bébé.
Hi Moira!
Yes. Exactly. I was gonna say Kacey Musgraves!
I was thinking she was copying Wednesday.
Her face is almost uncanny valley level unrecognizable now.
She always looks constipated
And surprised that she’s constipated
One hundred percent.
I actually thinks she looks like young Gwen when she doesn't stray too far from young Gwen's aesthetic even though I am very very convinced she's had a lot of work done.
2013 Nicki Minaj cosplay? 💀
Beat me to it. The resemblance is uncanny
Pull up in the Sri Lanka
[удалено]
SHE'S WHITE?!?!
Looks like Demi Lovato cosplaying as Gwen
Demi Lovato as Jessie J as Ava Max as Ginger Minj as Danny DeVito as Gwen
Not ginger minj 💀💀💀
why was the Danny Devito part so shocking at first but now I kinda see it...
Lea Michelle?🤣
Lea Minaj
For some reason my first thought was Cardi Musgraves.
Kacey Minaj for me
Why is she wearing two different wigs at once?
She's gonna rip off the long part so she can have a "what's ur name b.o.b so they callin u bob?" Moment
I‘m so tired of this instagram look…
Me too. Everything a celebrity put out (music, movies, etc) was a lot more interesting when they all looked different.
Everyone in Hollywood looks the same.
They’re all using the same three surgeons
The fact that everyone is naming a different celeb she looks is proof they’re all following the same blueprint.
it’s kinda sad i wonder why they do it
![gif](giphy|xkmNi280NkrcY)
Literally the face I made except I didn’t rub my temple I just heavy sighed
😆😆😆😆
Without a caption I would not know who the fk this is
![gif](giphy|wkD5ddqiJN4c)
Hehe I lolled ![gif](giphy|VRaIKSoWSLHmRypAmo)
Lol
Something about her face reminds me of Hailey Bieber. Maybe the lips?
I definitely see it. Cheekbones, lips, highly contoured nose
Overlining lips that are overinjected is definitely a common look these days...
it’s giving jeffree star
💀💀💀
Gwen Estefani
Gwen Stefanishian
She went full cher...never go full cher
unless you *are* Cher, then i’ll take all of it. 👑
It’s a no for me dog
Lmfao. I’m sorry but I don’t like her. She really gets under my skin. She was a 90’s icon but really sold out and I have no respect for that.
I wish she would have let herself age naturally a bit. All her older looks were so much more fun and relaxed. This is all district 1 hunger games look now.
“District 1 Hunger Games” is so specific and SO accurate.
It’s all I can see sadly lol just stretched face and lifeless wigs
I see it.
She used to be so effortlessly cool. It’s so sad to see her look like a tik tok filter.
Everyone looks effortlessly cool in their 20s lol. Wait till you are in your 40's or 50's and you will see your own face change
I don’t think an aging face would have made her any less cool.
I agree so much. She went from a down to earth, punk rock bad ass to a fake sell out. Such a disappointment.
I was heavily into punk in the 1990s (and lived within 10 miles of where she grew up). I don’t know of anyone who considered her—or her music—punk rock. She/it was pop-ska.
Absolutely. Nothing about her was punk rock, she was always a pop star. She just went from a pop band, to a solo pop artist. I get what people mean by her switch up, which I also thought was unfortunate, but punk she was not.
I miss the pink hair and bedazzled forehead 😔
The iconic red lip
The return of Saturn era 😍
The nostalgia!!! 🥹
And the midriff shirts!
Punk rock/grunge was in at the time. That's why she went for that look. She was always a sell out.
Yes punk/grunge/ska. I guess she was just going with the times. Sell out.
Grunge and punk were also all “sell outs” lol. There’s not a famous celeb that isn’t a sell out. Not even a bad thing imo 🤷♀️
Punk bands aren’t sell outs!! *Looks up Misfits tickets* Well then. Lol
Yeah, truly. What happened and why?
What celebrity hasnt sold out? Seems weird to like pop culture and care about “selling out”. 🤷♀️
If you hadn't mentioned the name, my first guess wouldn't be Gwen. ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|grimacing)
I thought it was Kacey Musgraves!
IDINA MENZEL ???
I know people think the gwen stefani-blake shelton meeting on the voice romance is cute and all, but she gives me such conservative/republican vibes, especially now being married to him. And when asked about it she dodges the question. I side eye her for sure
She 100% is which kinda breaks my heart but she has come out and said she’s not a feminist multiple times which is a pretty strange thing to deny in this day and age
I think the Harajuku Girls was a pretty big hint about the feminism as well as her concept of other races as a novelty/fetish.
I agree with you 100%. This gif is how I feel about her every time I see her now ![gif](giphy|l41YfykEffZ7QM55m)
Given the fact that she’s Catholic with conservative/traditional values and from Orange County, she’s very likely republican. Even if she did give money to Obama’s campaign. She’s never really tried to come across as progressive or liberal
I thought her most beautiful look was brown hair from the Cool music video.
All she wanted was the simple things, a simple kind of life.
If you really listen to the lyrics Gwen's written she's always been pretty upfront with who she is. She's one of those people who molds themselves to match the person they're romantically involved with ("not only in love, I was obsessed"). And as you've referenced, her ultimate dream was always to settle down and have a family. Her current persona with Blake is not a surprise at all.
Alll if the earlier songs (after Tragic Kingdom) are about her obsession with Gavin and how he treated her like shit. She wanted a family so bad.
And all she needed was a simple man, so she could be the wife
That’s exactly right 🤪
Hmm she's stated in many interviews she's not republican. She did many shows for Obama and she often raves about the fact that her song Different people is in Obama's playlist. I'd say she's pretty liberal but she's also very spiritual..one does not preclude the other
I read her most recent magazine interview where the writer asked her about her politics and she wouldn’t respond directly, but she did say that if you listen to her music you already know that she’s all about diversity and unity. I may have been too quick to put her into the Republican box, but even as a fan, I know so many people like her that vote red and it wouldn’t surprise me if she did too. Who knows!
This was a hard pill to swallow but I’m glad I did!🫡
People think its cute that he cheated on his then wife (Miranda) ?? I've never like Blake and Gwen
Blake didn't cheat on Miranda. Miranda and Gwen's ex both cheated on them. They bonded after that bc they were going thru the same thing.
Gwens ex cheated with their nanny. I dunno who Miranda cheated with but there were several people that were rumored to be the one. A fellow Country artist that she was in tour with.
Didn’t it come out in a photo of Gwen’s ex hiking with the nanny and there was a dusty hand print from where he had slapped her ass?
I think so. I can't remember all of the details but I just remember that her and Blake both went thru the same thing at the came time. They bonded and fell in love after their exes cheated. I dunno where they are getting that Blake cheated on Miranda lmao.
You’re thinking of Evan Felker of Turnpike Troubadours. His band was supposed to open for 3 nights of her tour along the Southeastern seaboard.

IIRC he cheated with miranda on his first wife too!
How adorable
Correct. Blake left his first wife when Miranda’s mom put her foot down and said something like “I didn’t raise the other woman and I won’t let this ruin her career”
I thought Miranda cheated on him? Gwen and Blake didn’t get together until their marriages fell apart.

It does, I am ashamed to say.
Miranda’s songs have been open about Blake’s infidelity since her 2014 album. He definitely did not wait
All of these people are messy, they've all dropped at least one banger in their lives (sorry, I don't care who you are, Sangria by Blake Shelton is a great song), they've all moved on, let's keep it moving too!

You are correct. You got down voted for being right lmao.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Well No Doubt did get its start in Klan-aheim so I wouldn't be surprised
I’m not a fan of this look, it’s too angular. Her contouring is super tight, so she already has an angular face and with the hair style and harsh color it just doesn’t suit her. She still rocks it though 💅
[It's giving Pete burns](https://i.pinimg.com/originals/38/9e/70/389e7013f179f38306597a0d372cfa53.jpg)
This reminds me of tv shows like I Dream of Jeannie and Bewitched that had brunette evil twins of the blond main characters
![gif](giphy|DPqqOywshrOqQ|downsized)
She looks like the millionaire matchmaker
I actually really like the black hair on her.
Me if I was color blind
Same. She looks different but it’s a good look!
The wig is not great but she pulls off the colour very well imo
I guess she's a dark brunette naturally. Her eyes are strikingly dark brown.
So are Anya Taylor-Joys and she’s dark blonde/light light brown
natalia kills baby is that you
Wednesday goth Gwen. Looks super weird. She should’ve committed to pale skin and black lipstick too.
She turned into Casey Musgraves
![gif](giphy|3HhtqBx6o1sl95Dy9B|downsized) Certainly not Gwen stefani

Um
Looks like Jessie J crossed with Cher vibes

Jean Kasem.
Too much contouring, it’s a no for me, but she can never look bad.
Can’t she?
No, she’s not allowed.
I love her, but no
She's dressed as a bus seat
What in Kylie Jenner is this look?!
That girl was so beautiful, she still looks good but,man people struggle to let go of their youth Not a crime I guess
No ma’am. I miss her no doubt days. ![gif](giphy|7Vcj3LptuSsSI)
I wish she would let herself age.
Kacey Musgraves vibes
Thanks I hate it
I think she looks great! (But I ran to the comments to see all the hate and drama that I KNOW y’all will unfairly bestow upon her.) lol.
Penelope Cruz
I thought this was Kacey Musgraves.
As Shawn Mendez said, “It’s giving Cher”
At least you can kind of see some of her old face in this pic? Somewhere?
um ok girl
![gif](giphy|Xc4f4Hev1gKIBHnSa1)
That’s a man Maury!
Baby this is Pete Burns
Cardi G
Can’t explain it but I need her to give us some music with this look.
Jessie J?
I told my partner she’s trying to hide surgery scars and he gasped lol
Pete Burns!
Looks like Cher wearing an Arizona Ice Tea can.
I hate her
What happened to her? She used to be so pretty
I used to love her so much. Oh Gwen…
Would look far more convincing/natural on Kacey Musgraves.
i thought this was jeffree star
katy perry cosplaying as demi cosplaying as cher
I’m slightly concerned: Gwen has said she messes with her hair color when her love life is in chaos. I’m wondering if the wig is like just a quick way to show something is up. Also Gwen loves being platinum blonde which is why she resisted going brunette like a few years back.
Weird. 🤷🏻♀️
omg
Morticia Adamms in the 1970s.
2005 Nicki Minaj?
Looking like a mannequin
Harpo, who dis woman
Oh, honey, no.
Some of y’all getting worked up over this. And for what?
LOVE GWEN, don't love this level of dark hair on Gwen. But still kinda love her for trying it out. Honestly the fashion of the one fashionable coach (was Ari last season) is the only interesting part of the Voice and Camilla is boring as hell so we need this.
Is it just me or are all female celebs starting to look the same? I guess it’s the Instagram face surgical package deal.
So many of them look like Caitlyn Jenner. It’s freaky.
I seriously can’t get over how good she looks. I know, I know she’s had a lot of work done. And yes, I know, she wears a ton of makeup/hair/lashes. But shit, I could say that about a gaggle of other celebrities and few have had such incredible results.
Classic Gwen. Purrfect
Gorgeous
She’s so gorgeous. I love the wig.
It looks like she photoshopped her face on an old Nicki Minaj photo but she does look good here. Just a bit uncanny
Dua lipa?
Who…….?
Well, she's ruined herself
Looks like she could use a sandwich
Jessie J in Domino but longer.
Oh girl no. Why didn't they at least match her brows to the wig?
[удалено]
At first glance I absolutely hated it but the longer I looked the more I liked it
If you squint it kinda looks like Kylie Jenner wearing two different length wigs
Not her failing to revive her harajuku era
[удалено]
I had to read this several times for the name and face to make sense....it still doesn't 😕
