Gwen Stefani is standing by her Harajuku era, which started with the release of her 2004 debut studio album, “Love. Angel. Music. Baby,” and continued with the 2008 launch of her “Harajuku Lovers” fragrance. Stefani was widely accused of appropriating Japan’s Harajuku subculture in her album’s artwork and marketing. She also traveled with four “Harajuku Girls,” Japanese and Japanese-American backup dancers who served as a kind of public entourage for Stefani. The group even inspired the bottle shapes for Stefani’s fragrance. 

While Stefani’s Harajuku era launched nearly 20 years ago, it’s back in the news due to an interview the singer gave to Allure magazine to mark the launch of her new vegan beauty brand, GXVE Beauty. Stefani was asked about what she learned from her Harajuku era, to which she doubled down on defending it. Stefani said she was introduced to Japanese culture by her father, who worked at Yahama for 18 years and frequently traveled between California and Japan.

“That was my Japanese influence,” Stefani said. “And that was a culture that was so rich with tradition, yet so futuristic [with] so much attention to art and detail and discipline and it was fascinating to me.”

Stefani traveled to the Harajuku district as an adult. She told Allure, “I said, ‘My God, I’m Japanese and I didn’t know it.’ I am, you know.” 

Declaring herself a “super fan” of Japanese culture, Stefani defended herself against the backlash she’s faced over her Harajuku era. “If [people are] going to criticize me for being a fan of something beautiful and sharing that, then I just think that doesn’t feel right,” she said. “I think it was a beautiful time of creativity…a time of the ping-pong match between Harajuku culture and American culture. [It] should be okay to be inspired by other cultures because if we’re not allowed then that’s dividing people, right?” 

As reported by Allure: “During our interview, Stefani asserted twice that she was Japanese and once that she was ‘a little bit of an Orange County girl, a little bit of a Japanese girl, a little bit of an English girl.’ (A representative for Stefani reached out the next day, indicating that I had misunderstood what Stefani was trying to convey. Allure later asked Stefani’s team for an on-the-record comment or clarification of these remarks and they declined to provide a statement or participate in a follow-up interview.)

Variety has also reached out to Stefani’s representative for further comment.

Stefani concluded by telling Allure that she identifies not just with Japanese culture but also with Hispanic and Latinx cultures because of her upbringing in Anaheim, California. “The music, the way the girls wore their makeup, the clothes they wore, that was my identity,” she said. “Even though I’m an Italian American — Irish or whatever mutt that I am — that’s who I became because those were my people, right?”

Kpop fans these days really do act shocked af when they realize a 16 year old is debuting  like how old did you think SNSD, Kara, Wonder Girls, Shinee, Big Bang, etc were when they came out?

Like just say you don’t like that you can’t call new idols your Oppa/Unnie anymore & leave it at that. This constant fake-shock at idols “debuting younger” when it’s just idols who are now the same age that your faves were when they debuted is weird

I don’t have a problem with 16 year old kpop idols debuting but honestly a 13 year old is way too young imo

oh no, get outta there girl. he reminds me so much of another site owner, on a pop forum i was on. he was a power-hungry, egotistical lunatic who loved Trump and loved talking shit about liberals, like literally all the time. he would join (and even encourage) users saying awful things about female celebrities. he tried rebranding and relaunching like 5 times because the forum always went up in flames with bullying, racism, transphobia, ableism, harassment, and just general toxicity. he also tried to sabotage a rival forum (sound familiar?) created by users who were tired of his shit. a lot of the sensible people grouped together on discord to try and take him down, lol even his fellow admins and mods conspired against him. it was the messiest internet shit i've ever witnessed in real time.

anyway, johnny sounds just like that other guy, it's a bit triggering. he's gonna attract more users who are just like him and it will turn into a massive shitshow. kpop 4chan. the best thing people can do is just leave.

I need the forum name pls
