No, but being a harajuku girl is about being an individual. It's about being different.
Gwen Stefani's are the same, there is nothing unique about them.Not really. It's offensive to a lot of people.

yes as i pointed out that was one of the cultures rules.
But then again according to you they aren't harajuku girls so why do you care so much?
like who? i know you find it offensive (even though i don't know why)
It's offensive to asian women in particular. She has taken a new style about personal expression and turned it back into the "super kawaii" stereotype.

well no one except you has actually complained about them to me. Its not meant to be taken seriously and not mean't to be offensive. Its meant to be for gwen... I can't change it if other people take them so seriously. Its up to gwen what she does anyway, not you or me or anyone else.

"It's all just marketing. Whatever sells the record. Authenticity is usually not part of the equation, because most people simply don't care."
Maybe I just find it irritating because I know about what the culture is like, she is making it "harajuku" fashion famous for something it is not.

"Simpering behind fluttering hands or bowing to Stefani. That's right, bowing. Not even from the waist, but on the ground in a "we're not worthy, we're not worthy" pose"

they don't have to bow its out of choice. they could easily say 'i quit' .

🤨That makes no sense. You can't compare the 2 things... 😐
if Gwen stefani has to fire all the staff who other people find offensive does that mean that if i offend someone i have to quit school?
I can compare what i like 😐
