As earlier reported, Elle magazine’s May issue celebrates ‘Women In Music’. Covering the special edition is No Doubt stunner Gwen Stefani.
The ‘Hollerback’ singer has been out of the limelight for some time, opting to focus on motherhood, recording with No Doubt and her successful fashion line ‘L.A.M.B’.
In her absence, of course, a new crop of stars have risen to prominence – including the likes of Rihanna, Fergie, and Lady GaGa. Find out after the jump what the 41 year old thinks of suggestion that such acts have borrowed her style.
Via Necole Bitchie:
Really? I don’t see myself in those girls. I usually put pants on. I see these girls as more going for the sex-symbol thing. I was more, in the band, like a tomboy. Of course, I think every girl is sexy, so there’s going to be a little of that. But I see a lot of younger artists going more toward the sexy thing.
On today’s music longevity
When we were growing up, some of the hits were legendary ones that you hear your whole life. But certain songs, I don’t know if you’ll ever hear them again. Because that’s what that music is, like a guilty pleasure, it’s right at the moment.
HEY GWEN! WHERE YA BEEN! SHE STILL LOOKS GOOD
SPAM
Damn, Gwen still looks hot, even though she’s 42.
Omg She Looks Amazing Shes Shitting,And Shes Too Humble Gorl Cleary You Inspierd Katy And Gaga Esp Gaga When She Came Out She Looked Just Like Gwen Twin (No Shade) Esp The Just Dance Look And Sometimes Gaga Voice Sounds Just Like Gwen Like In Paparazzi
Thanks photoshop!
loving her style! Can’t wait for No noubt new album. She rocks
tell it like it IS!!! GWEN! YESSSS READ THOSE GIMMICKS DOWNE! yassss!!!! she looks amazing for 41.
Love her
She’s super in and out of her former group. Gwen is usually always on.
SHE IS SO HUMBLE BUT I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT ABOUT HER! I would prefer her to think she’d influenced these girls though! SHE’S S STUNNING, BEAUTIFUL-Such a lovely girl!
she looks amazing….
I wish we could have another SOLO ALBUM!
can’t f***** wait for some new NoDoubt music! Gwen the real legend.
Damn Right She Knows Caca Is Just For The Moment 😉
Poker Face What?
Alejandro Who?
Paparazzi Ehh?
LMFAO
#QueenBeyonce2011
every f***** day of the year, in every f***** place on earth, someone has to bring up gaga’s name…lol
i didn’t know she was such a threat
Oh Gwen threw shade.
@Queen Beyonce Stan
Because Beyonce has a song that will be played 20 years from now, right?? Oh ok.
Haha Gwen is that chick, can’t wait for the comeback
look at dem haters, so pressed, so jealous on gaga. last time i checked only : poker face, just dance annd gotta feelin by blk eyed peas reached the 5million downloads..
since gaga arived in the industry, somebody’s fave is soooo fading…i know it hurts when someone comes out of nowhere to take the top spot.
now they talkin about round Iv while gaga already mopped the floor with dem f***** round III.
they said born this way would be born to flop, last time i checked born this way was the fastest selling single in itunes history…born this way is already 2times platinum..gaga can be sure to pass the 5millions mark again…i (u) know that bad romance already sold over 4.7 downloads, so who’s the boss now???
well the burlesque singer slutyonce Knoise thought that buyin all those grammies would make her the number one chick, sorry but all eyes are on gaga.
slutyonce lacefront = outdated
slutyonce ass shaking = too much outdated
slutyonce heels dancin = mega boring
yay born this way written by mommy monster debuted at #1 n remained for 6 consecutives weeks. NOW WHAT? GAGA WILL OUTSELL EVERY ARTIST THIS YEAR. NOW WHAT?
SORRY GWEN BUT NOONE TRYINA BE U. N GAGA S A BETTER SINGER DANCER PRODUCER WRITER DESIGNER N EVERYTHIN…BORN THIS WAY>>>>>>HOLLABACK GIRL
I love her! Can’t wait for new music.
@JJFAN1814
Halo, Irreplaceable, Crazy In Love, Listen, If I Were A Boy…just to name a few.
I use to LOVEEEE Her, wasnt really into her solo s***, took me a while to appreciate it, but i FUKIN Loved No Doubt!
And DEAD….It does seem like she was throwing shade, but then again it doesnt …Its confusing o_O
@JJFan
What @The KIDDZ Said! They Are Still Passing Crazy In Love & Baby Boy On The Radio & Some Of DC Too So I’m Pretty Sure They Will 😉
@DANTE
Who Has Been Fading Since Caca Came Into The Scene?
Britney?
Gwen?
Madonna?
& Hunn No One Here Cares For Sales We Care About ACCOMPLISHMENTS!
Come To Me When The B**** Has A Stay At The #1 Spot For 11 Weeks 😉
#QueenBeyonce2011
if gwen hadn’t stepped out the scene, gaga would’ve never been.
LOVE THIS B****
PLEASE GET YOUR NEW MUSIC OUT ASAP AND SHOW ALL THESE FAKE POP TARTS HOW ITS DONE
@QUEEN BEYONCE STAN
THEY STILL PLAY BABY ONE MORE TIME ON THE RADIO AND ITS 13 YEARS OLD.
I SURE AS HELL NEVER HEAR CRAZY IN LOVE BEING PLAYED
LMFAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
GOODBYE H**!!!!!!
UMBRELLA BY PRINCESS RIRI WILL ALSO BE PLAYED FOR DECADES TO COME!!! BEYONCE COULD NEVER.
Damn…Gwen just told the ABSOLUTE TRUTH now didn’t she?
Although she and No Doubt made their share of generic music they do have some notable classics…..”Don’t Speak” comes to mind!
I agree 100% about todays corporate owned music industry. These corporations are more concerned with quick hits & chart placement success than making sure that artists release substantive material. Where will the next Marvin Gaye, Nina Simon, Stevie Ray Vaughan, etc come from? This music industry sure as hell isn’t cultivating true talent!
But hey……so and so has so many #1 singles, CD’s, is on the cover of blah, blah magazine! I guess to hell with the art of making music and having a hand in the total creative process (i.e. song writing, singing, producing, etc)! *Yeezy shrug*
@KYLE Aka Nicky
Shouldn’t You Be Stanning For RihFUNDS Instead Of Britney?
Fake B**** lol
They Still Pass Baby One More Time? Wow Probably That’s Why They Don’t Pass Hold It Against Me No More Huh :)?

#QueenBeyonce2011
@beyonce stan
what accomplishment u wanna tlk abt? the 6 grammies? #1 for 10 weeks? what ireplaceable? all that is the past. i wanna see her score it NOW. she didnt even write that song..what did she really achieve? the singin part? well gaga can sing. can she write? gaga can..
in three years, gagas been certified the highest sellin artist in digital history.
the fame spent over 100 weeks on top of dance charts n gaga wrote n cowrote evry songs. she just ddnt steal credits n thats HUGE.
gaga writes for other artists;
now that gaga is in the game. i dont care about the pre-gaga period…n sales matter.
truth is many artists are fading with gaga era. she’s outshinin n outsellin ur faves. only 3 years in the game. i wanna see ur fave SHINES now. i dont care about yesterday when Mama Gaga was baby gaga. bye
@DION ISH

Every Song The B**** Co-Wrote Is Crap Plus She Uses The Same Method, Write As If She’s Stuttering Lol
#QueenBeyonce2011
@DANTE
I AM WAITING FOR BEYONCE TO FLOP THIS ERA
WATCH HER RELEASE ANOTHER “DEJA VU”
LMFAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
I cannot believe that I just read somebody say any of RihTARDS songs are classics unlike anything BEYONCE HAS EVER MADE? WTH???
Spiking the coffee again today I see? 🙂

B**** I Don’t Think, I Know 😉
BEYONCE>>>> Adele>>>> RiHFUNDS>>>>> Katy>>>>> S******>>>KESHA>>>>>> Beyonces S***>>>> ????? >>>> MANLDAY CACA
@beyonce stan
that was my point..i was sayin since gaga came into the game, many artists who were famous (aka rihanna britney katy etc) started fading… n the fame was released only 3 years ago. the same period beyonce released i am sasha fierce…
plus i aint got time to wait till ur queen drops a record cause gaga already mopped the floor with her last record..imma wipe my a*** with her next one.
gaga dont use the same method when she writes..when u listen to the other songs theyre not the same at all…her classics r great but this is just my opinion..
@Dion-Ish
Wow Your Mad Cuz Of This???
“Who Has Been Fading Since Caca Came Into The Scene?
Britney?
Gwen?
Madonna?”
GURL BYE & I THOUGHT THE STUPID ONES WERE THE MONSTERS

#QueenBeyonce2011
PREACH GWEN!
THIS STAN WAR IS JUST FUNNY
IF YOU LOOK CLOSELY MOST OF THE IT GIRLS WILL HAVE AT LEAST ONE SONG THAT WILL LAST FOR YEARS
FOR EXAMPLE BOTH BEYONCE AND RIHANNA HAVE ONE SONG IN THE 500 GREATEST SONGS OF ALL TIME
CRAZY IN LOVE AT (118) AND UMBRELLA AT (412)
BRITNEY DEFINETELY HAS HERS WITH BABY ONE MORE TIME
BEYONCE ALSO HAD SWEET DREAMS,SINGLE LADIES, HALO AND IRREPLACEABLE
NAMED AS ONE OF THE 100 GREATEST SONGS OF THE 2000’S WITH CRAZY IN LOVE BEING NAMED NOS 2
SO DONT WORRY UR FAVES WILL LAST
THE MERE FACT THAT THERE ARE STAN WARS ABOUT THEM SHOWS THEY HAVE ARRIVED
I thought gwen was OK and I never listened to No Doubt but whatevs*shrugs* I don’t think she meant to throw shade but the jokes write themselves in this comment section with certain stans lmao

#QueenBeyonce2011
Smart woman… I do think alot of artist borrowed from her though, she’s being modest. I see Gwen in Fergie, Gaga, Ke$ha and Katy to name a few. There are so many Hollaback Girl remixes out there!
*Updated*ThePagewithroyalkev.b*******.com
Love Gwen 🙂
Go Gaga. they r so mad!!!
H.A.T.E.R.S = HAVING ANGER TOWARDS EVERYONE REACHING SUCCESS !

WHY DO YOU ALL ARGUE WITH THESE STANS OF NO TALENTS? AS YOU CAN SEE THEY ARE PRESSED WHICH IS PROBABLY BECAUSE.
1.) THERE FAVE HAS 000 TALENT, AND ONLY PEOPLE THEY ARE RESPECTED BY IS THEIR STANS.
2.) THEY WANT OTHER ARTIST TO FLOP SO BAD BECAUSE THERE FAVE IS DOING LESS THAN STELLAR #’S
3.) THE GENERAL PUBLIC CONSTANTLY HATES ON THEIR FAVE BECAUSE OF THEIR LACK OF TALENT… SO THEY HAVE TO RETALIATE SOMEHOW RIGHT?
4.) I MEAN REALLY… IN A GENERAL CONSENSUS NO ONE THINKS OF BRITNEY SPEARS OR RIHANNA AS AMAZING ARTIST, ON ANY FRONT. AND THAT IS A FACT.
THE FUNNY PART IS PEOPLE ARE QUICK TO SAY TRENT AND SAM HATE, BUT ACTUALLY MOST OF WHAT THEY SAY IS TRUE, AND WHAT MOST PEOPLE THINK ABOUT RIHANNA AND BRITNEY ANYWAY. WHICH IS….
*****NO TALENT POPSTAR****
SO TO CALL ANY OTHER FAN BASE DELUSIONAL WHEN YOU STAN FOR A NO TALENT IS THE EPITOME OF IRONIC.
@ Monster Life:
Pressed much? You monsters just can’t keep Bey’s name out of your mouths.
And GaGa is a better singer than Gwen, but that’s really about all she’s got on her.

First of All, If they were so untalented and beneath the rest of the industry….Why are the supposed “Real Talent” artist stans soo quick to bring up there names?! because to be honest Rihanna and Britney stans 99% of the time are NOT the ones starting s***….Why would they?! Our favs are slaying…..The only time we retiluate is when others come for us or our favs! soo NEXT!

**Supposed Rih/Ci stan**
Speaking of hearin’ old songs on radio : Here in Romania(Europe) !
Beyonce still has old songs played !
Britney … NEVER !
Gaga … Sometimes … She isn’t very loved because of her satanic style !
Rihanna … her old songs never ! only the new ones !
Anyway ….. Gwen looks very good … Can’t wait for new album !
“I use to LOVEEEE Her, wasnt really into her solo s***, took me a while to appreciate it, but i FUKIN Loved No Doubt!
And DEAD….It does seem like she was throwing shade, but then again it doesnt …Its confusing o_O”
She wasn’t throwing shade, she was just telling the truth.
I’mma need Gwen to put out another album though… she looks pretty on this cover!
@QUEEN BEYONCE STAN

B**** Please! MOST of us DONT, Like ME!! …And as i can see its YOUR type to start s***, Its even in your Username what your intentions are!
You can have your opinion that Rihanna isnt this and that, OK….Sooooo WHY is she even a factor in your life?? You dont Have to pay her ANY mind…BUT YOU DO!
Rihanna is a very talented young lady……She Has and does Write, Shes a Singer, She dances, she Designs, she has exec produced, video direct and many other things…..Whether you think its good or bad is solemnly an opinion!
…and Rihanna isnt respected?? LOL what a JOKE!
———
And Britney Spears is a WHOLE different story….Britney has displayed her talent as a performer….Is she as good as she use to be? Maybe not. But Neither is Whitney and Mariah vocally, does that make them untalented now?
Every group of fans/stans has the delusional idiots who like to start crap.
I meant to add, so stop singling out a few groups like they are the only ones who start mess.

OF COURSE NO ONE WILL EVER BE MARIAH OR WHITNEY, BUT THAT IS NOT WHY THEY ARE NOT TALENTED.
I SAY THEY ARE NOT TALENTED BECAUSE THEY AREN’T, WELL BRITNEY WAS A GOOD DANCER @ ONE TIME.
AND YES I SAY NO ONE RESPECTS RIHANNA BUT HER STANS. THATS A FACT HON!
RIHANNA ISNT INFLUENCING ANY OTHER ARTIST, NO ONE LOOKS UP TO HER STUDYING HER FOR HER VOCAL, DANCING, OR PERFORMING TECHNIQUE.
THEY MAY LOOK TO HER FOR A CUTE OUTFIT, BUT BABY THIS ISN’T THE FASHION INDUSTRY, IT IS THE MUSIC INDUSTRY AND…
*****RIHANNA DOES NOT BELONG IN IT*****
AS LONGSAS SHE CONTINUES TO MAKE MONEY FOR HER LABEL, THEY WILL CONTINUE TO ENSURE TO DO EVERYTHING TO KEEP HER RELEVANT, BECAUSE HER TALENT ISNT A RELIABLE SOURCE…. AND THAT IS A FACT!

@Keesha
Preachhhhhhhhhh…
@DIONISH
u got a poitn about the whitney and mariah thing……but look at the impact of whint & mariah, if it wasnt for them two women, girls likes britney and Rihanna would not be where they are now…..britney has made an impact on music…but she has no passion for what she is doing now..SHE HAS SAID IT before…rihanna, is jjust doing what people are telling her to do. she just want to make a hit..
HOW THE F*** did this thread turn into a stan war.
Gwen Stefani is 41 years old. She predates most of these wack h*** people are arguing about in this thread.
She is gorgeous, original, amazing, talented: a legend. Her music will be remembered, not her singles. People love her albums and music with No Doubt, despite her hits like Rich Girl. Gwen Stefani isn’t a “singles artist”.
The only song that will be remembered from Rihanna is Umbrella
The only song that will be remembered from Beyonce is Single Ladies, maybe Bootylicious
The only song that will be remembered by Lady Gaga is Bad Romance
People in here act like these girls are going to have a classic catalogue like Madonna, Janet, or Michael. Uh, no.
hmm, I have too agree with her….music now adays fade very quickly….like britney’s first single what was that called again….IT’S TRUELLY SAD…
To be honest I am not ever going to really see Rihanna as talented, but what I have done is gain some respect for her. I can’t hate on Rihanna so much, if I like some of her music. I think it’s fair to point out some things that she’s lacking if the conversation leads to that. Her stans(some, not all) are very confrontational and I find that they do bash a lot of artist. They go to war with Breezy stans, Bey stans, Ciara stans and it’s a reason for that. Now, she’s remained relevant longer than I thought she would and I think she’s better than a few artist that have followed behind her (Katy, Gaga, Ke$ha even). I know, I’m suppose to say the EVEN part for Gaga – but the talent that is there(vocally) is over shadowed by the lack of originality and creativity. Her music is 90% recycled gibberish… Anyway, my point with some Rihanna bashers is that there are some people that don’t think she can sing – and it’s just an honest opinion. Other people that ignored her flaws, because she does bring other things to the table is understandable. Everyone enjoys a Rihanna song here and there. So, you can understand where people are coming from both ways! … Or atleast, I do. As for Britney, it’s the same thing – honestly, she has loss some fire… but, almost 12 years later and all that she’s accomplished later… it just doesn’t matter(unless names like Madonna, Janet and Bey come up)! #just saying.

@QUEEN THIEFONCE STAN
H** U MUST BE MAD SINCE FEMME FATALE IS GETTING BETTER REVIEWS THAN IASF
“Because that’s what that music is, like a guilty pleasure, it’s right at the moment.”
Exactly. But for some artists, that’s really all they’re aiming for
@ Auntie Jackie:
Uh, Crazy In Love, Irreplaceable, Halo? Bootylicious is a DC song, and its legacy has more to do with the title becoming a part of our vocabulary.
And with all due respect to Gwen, it’s mostly her singles with her band and as a solo artist that people DO remember.
If you meant she’s not a singles artist in terms of only having success with singles, you’re right. But if you mean that people mainly talk about her musical legacy in terms of classic albums (with the possible exception of Tragic Kingdom), that’s where
you’re a bit wrong. And no, I’m not trying to argue that Beyoncé has
albums that are considered classic, but you’re wrong that she’ll only be remembered for just the two songs that you named.
@KYLE AKA NICKY
AWW BOO ARE PRESSED?

I Disagree….If It wasnt for Madonna (or even Janey) Rihanna and Britney wouldnt be here, being thats were there inspirations come from.
Mariah and Whitney or more inspires of Beyonce, JHud, Xtina etc.
—
I also disagree with that fact that you seem to think Rihanna is told what to do…..every artist under a major recording contract is told what to do to some capacity BUT …Many are given control depending on there status as an artist. Rihanna is pretty major, and Rated R isnt something her label wanted, It was Rihanna’s ideas….and it was her who wanted to get back to making the music she made before (while also being a factor the label wanted)
Why the hell has this post turned into a stan war?????????
Anyway, artists as Mariah or Whitney and their impact, talent and catalogue owns every f****** puppet/lesser/untalented women mentioned on here: that goes for retarded Rihanna, Britney, JNo, etc stans and even Gaga and Beyonce. Neither of them are at that level
@QUEEN THIEFONCE STANS
I SLAYED U SO HARD WITH MY LAST POST
LMFAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
BRITNEY’S ALBUMS ALWAYS GET AMAZING REVIEWS THOUGH SO WHATS NEW?
BRITNEY’S WEAVE>>>BEYONCE KNOWLES
BRITNEY’S NAME MEANS POP
BEYONCE’S NAME MEANS S*** ALL
WHOS MAD?
SMH at this stan war!
@DION-ISH
I just saw a C-Error stan TRYING TO BE LIKE YOU! But failed MISERABLY! Lol!
SN: I LOVE me some Gwen! Fashion, music, etc. LOVE! I see the shade boo! LOVES IT TOO!
@dionish
Wrong again….britney has said countless times that she looks up to mariah and whitney and was one of her inspirations…rihanna mainly said if it wasnt for beyonce, she would not be doing what she is doing today…plus she has said that whintey and mariah was big influences on her career.
Rated R was her idea, LOUD is the labels. Whixh one is doing better. she is making what her company wants, which is girly dance pop music. i truly think the only thing she has control over is her hair *no shade*…being that if it wasnt for that cut back in 07, she wouldnt be getting all that attention. lets be real about it, all her albums before GGGB was compared to beyonce the whole style was bey. * no control* Gggb, no control because it was her manager idea to go main stream pop. if it was up to rihanna, she still be making reggae music *she said MAN DOWN was her favorite song off of LOUD*.
@KYLE
dont u mean britney wig?
Let’s just be honest…
Gaga totally STOLE Gwen’s style. Look at the “Wind It Up” video and tell me Gaga didn’t hijack Gwen. She’s more like a “dark” Gwen than Madonna.
@ True Blue
Well, to clarify. Gwen makes amazing music, and she started with a rock/ska band that cared less about singles and more about albums. That carried over to her own solo work. People remember her singles, as they do an successful artist, of course. But her legacy is not her singles. Is that clearer? Her legacy is her albums and all around uniqueness. No one thinks of Gwen and automatically thinks of a specific song the way you might with other artists. Kind of like Madnonna, Michael, Janet, Whitney, Mariah are appreciated for everything that makes them up and there entire body of work.
I think people have to remember that Beyonce’s legacy will be her AH-MAZING live performances. I can’t honestly say people are listening to “Crazy In Love” the album right now the way you can still switch on “Tragic Kingdom”, “Thriller” or “Rhythm Nation” or “Mariah Carey”.
I’m NOT in any way degrading the force that is Bey or any other artist. But, what I am saying is that Gwen has albums people are still listening to that can be played over and over again because they are so unique (solo or in the band). Whereas Rihanna’s songs are clearly songs of the moment (sans umbrella) and Beyonce (not comparing them because they shouldn’t even be in the same sentence) has some rather forgettable contemporary R&B cuts outside of Single Ladies. I included Bootylicious because DC 3 got that put in the dictionary! Halo, maybe, she won a grammy for her performance of it.
But, yeah, I don’t think Bey makes classic material. She makes GREAT material, though.
@NONE YA
I Figured that out lol ….some crazed b**** i was arguing with on twitter, sad
@BLACK
Saying Rihanna has no control is stupid! Goodbye! …GGGB look and sound was also Rihanna’s ideas, said by herself and label figures who didnt agree w/ it at first…..The whole Beyonce island image was the labels which is understandable being she was a new artist ….now shes has control being shes one of the biggest artist on her label, if they dont let her do what she wants she CAN leave and it will be a downfall of the Label…Not Rihanna…*Rolls Eyes* at dumb asses who THINK they know Rihanna and her career and question her capabilities TAKE SEVERAL SEATS
Well….ADELE is SLAYING all of these NO TALENTS……
🙂
And she came out with no gimmicks just raw TALENT im DONE 🙂
Im sorry but im reading @AUNTIEJACKIE comments just thinking, WHAT THE F** IS THIS B**** TALKING ABOUT?
Nothing your saying adds up or makes any type of since SMH stop trying so hard….
@DIONISH
*B**** Bye*, how the hell u going with me over something The girl said herself….#done. have a nice life *if u even have one*.
@DUMMIES
….And thats commendable, and there are plenty of others out there like her, but the same ones overusing the terms True Talent, and this and that….. Wouldn’t know or care, you are whatever grabs your attention.
@ Dion_ISH
Kill yourself. You stan for a no talent.
Of course you can’t comprehend a nuanced argument, your a f****** idiot.

@AUNTIE JACKIE
OMG U KILLED ME WITH THIS COMMENT @8:51 pm
LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
@ Auntie Jackie:
I do agree that Beyoncé doesn’t have classic albums (hopefully, album #4 will rectify that, though).
Gwen and No Doubt have made great, memorable material aside from their singles, I’m not disputing that. Problem is, there’s not too many people that consider their body of work as a whole to be classic. Apart from Tragic Kingdom, I don’t hear too many people talk about their entire discography being classic, like Michael or Janet. Not that I’m saying they won’t be remembered years from now.
And you forgot GaGa’s Poker Face. Just as huge as Bad Romance.
@AUNTIEJACKIE
You said Rihanna only make songs for the moment? Like explain EXACTLY what does that mean….because ive could’ve sworn thats been done since music was invented.
Music that is made is for that moment or era……which goes on to be iconic or influential in time
“no talent” Really? GET OVER YOURSELF
Then again, I could be dead wrong.
@ True Blue
I think Bey. Is. Coming. I agree with you that album #4 for her probably has the potential to be classic. I’m excited to see what direction she’s going in musically, and I know it won’t be like anything we’ve already heard before. I like Sweet Dreams for her a lot, too. I’m not sure how it charted (that always matters so much to people), but it’s one of my favorite offerings from her.
Yes, I forgot Poker Face!
@TRUE BLUE
Whos that in your gravatar…i wanna say Jesus but…..yea idk
*Sips Tea*
Bwa ha ha ha @ Dion-ish getting dragged, btw. 90% of the time, she wouldn’t know a damn thing about talent.
It’s Kurt Cobain. I thought it would be overwhelmingly obvious to tell.
@ Dion_Ish
I wasn’t even talking to you, but you had to go an insert yourself because your a STAN.
She’s a phenomenal pop artist when it comes to making hit songs. If reggae is in, Rihanna makes Reggae sounding songs (her roots). If electro pop is in, Rihanna makes electro pop. If being a rock star is in, Rihanna makes songs that sound like rock-pop. Is that CLEAR enough for you?
Come on, trace her evolution. She was the Bajan Beyonce when Sean Paul was dominating the airwaves. She was the rock star when everyone wanted to “Party Like A Rockstar” and wear skulls/spikes/black. She’s a happy dance-pop gal now that everyone loves electro pop. DUH. She follows trends.
I think Rihanna is a no talent hack. I hate her voice live, I think her dancing is stiff, and I can’t stand the ignorant things she says in interviews. You can like her all you want, but I think she’s wack.

Though I agree with you on several points I must say that although I like Gwen S she is not original. Madonna did it before she stepped on to the scene! I do believe that Beyonce and her music will be remembered when Rihanna is laying in an early grave! Gaga has a huge gay following which will keep her relevant in one way or another. Their still singing that 70’s hit by Gloria Gainer “I will survive” as if it came out yesterday! i’m just saying 🙂
@True Blue

Jesus Take The Wheel…That is ALL.
@ I’m a Billy Goat
Hey there 🙂 You don’t think Gwen’s original? Awww I do! I think Gwen really has her own style (see her early days with No Doubt as a push-up doing tom-boy wearing ripped tank tops) and when she got older (see her Japanese influenced outfits and dancing). I see Madonna in her, but I think Gwen Def has her own thing!
Gwen looks great!!! Keep it up!!! Follow me ill follow back Who_Is_Hasaan
@ AuntieJackie
Girl you preach!!
@AUNTIEJACKIE
Hmm Interesting Analysis …but false by all means.
When GGGB was released there was nothing out like it nor were ppl dressing like Rih and rocking the short cut popularly til afterwards….(also GGGB was recorded in 2006)
When Rated R was released there was DEF nothing out like it. it also caught the eye and respect of many others from Sade, Prince, and even underground rock bands who would never cover a pop artist.
…And LOUD is very generic and of the moment for sure but she incorporated her own style and development in it which makes it original from the Ska Electronic island sound of Whats my Name that is gaining popularity (in which Keri Hilson recently did) ..And Only Girl (Nicole Swer-whatever tried) and the floral prints and red hair which many are starting to follow.
@ONANA…GOATS MY NAME!
April 7, 2011 at 7:09 pm
@ DION_ISH
AND YES I SAY NO ONE RESPECTS RIHANNA BUT HER STANS. THATS A FACT HON!
RIHANNA ISNT INFLUENCING ANY OTHER ARTIST, NO ONE LOOKS UP TO HER STUDYING HER FOR HER VOCAL, DANCING, OR PERFORMING TECHNIQUE.
THEY MAY LOOK TO HER FOR A CUTE OUTFIT, BUT BABY THIS ISN’T THE FASHION INDUSTRY, IT IS THE MUSIC INDUSTRY &*****RIHANNA DOES NOT BELONG IN IT*****
***********************
WOW 101% Cosign! There is nothing left to say!
I can’t think of one person who claims to model their singing, dancing after her! Anytime I hear some forced complement its always in regards to you know blah, blah!!
@ I’m a Billygoat… So true about that I will survive song. I’m sure it’s a classic that meant a lot to people, but Bey will clearly have that. She has alteast a dozen that I think people will hold on to for decades to come.
@ Auntie Jackie, I was about to agree with Billygoat on the Gwen being original thing… but, your right! She took a lot of chances and she was very original in a lot of ways. I loved the harashuku girls that danced with her.
*Updated*ThePagewithroyalkev.b*******.com
@ Dion-ish:
GIF fail. It didn’t display for me.
@ Auntie Jackie:
I think Gwen is strongly influenced by Debbie Harry as well.
I Just find it hilarious that some dont realize that Rihanna was actually the first to do the Spikes and Latex etc. before A LOT of the artist that are now taking it in.
Rihanna been did Pop Electro music since SOS, Breaking Dishes and DSTM
Soooo Your speaking out of pure distraught and not actual knowledge
@TRUE BLUE
OK. BYE! *shrugs*
@DION_ISH’s gifs are giving me LIFE! Lol!
@AUNTIE JACKE/TRUE BLUE
Wasn’t Dangerously In Love a classic? It’s in the Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame.
@I’M A BILLY GOAT ….BAA SPANK ME HARDER YEEHA
Um Rihanna is by no means a legend so nobody of today will specifically say they model there career after her, that would be pure swagga jacking.
But there are younger, up and coming artist who have made claims of such…..Alexis Jordan, Vita Chambers, Selena Gomez, Demi Lovato etc.
…And Rihanna HAS received great comments by her peers and legends alike regarding her performances and vocals. Adele, Mary J Blige and Bon Jovi to name a few….
@AuntieJackie
*waving*
Don’t get me wrong, I like her and to be honest she lasted much longer than I thought she would. She really blossomed once she became a solo artist. They orginally tried to model her after Madonna but you’re right she did eventually developed her own flare……never mind! 🙂
I will say it again, She was on point with her answers in this interview! Today’s want to be diva’s seem to be too concerned with fashion and generating #1 generic tunes!!
@NONE YA
Thank God for New York, she gives me LIFE lol
@ None Ya:
DIL has aged badly, IMO.
@NONE YA
Well actually no one gives me life but my favs…..But New York is pure entertainment, they need to put her ass back on TV.
@I’M A BILLY GOAT ….BAA SPANK ME HARDER YEEHA
Ew…long as you dont attach any of my favs names to “Diva” …none of my favs fit that term by any means.
When i think of Diva i Think of Contemp R&B artist like Mariah, Beyonce, JLo etc.
@TRUE BLUE
I truly hope ROUND IV shuts the doubters up for good! I LOVE DIL!
@DION_ISH
Thank God for New York and Tanisha from the BGC! Or else I couldn’t live! lol
@DION_ISH
Boo, J.Lo was NEVER Contemp. R&B! More like Hip-Pop! Tanisha from BGC and NY need a show together! I SWEAR it’ll be the HIGHEST RATED show ever!
@NONE YA
oh well…..
And YASSS! lol …I Would DEF Watch! The BGC should of been a one cast based show like Jersey Shore…..It aint s*** w/o Tanisha!
@DION_ISH
Exactly! BGC should’ve been like Jersey Shore! Tanisha’s fuckery is just…..I cannot! I swear they would’ve been BIGGER than Snooki’s orange ass!

*****************************
WHO?
@ True Blue
Ugh! I love Blondie & Debbie Harry. I have to agree. She’s more Debbie than Joan Jett.
@ None Ya
Dangerously in Love? I don’t know if I’d call it classic because I don’t think people still listen to it that much (maybe it’s just the people I’m around?). It seems like the overall perception is that Beyonce is a classic entertainer, but hasn’t produced a classic album yet. I think she. is. coming.
@ Dion_Ish
Sorry, but you fail. The song “Party Like a Rockstar” was recorded in 2005, which means that “rockstar” fad had been bubbling under for some time before Rihanna and her people tapped into it. Kelis chopped her hair and released Kelis Was Here August 22nd 2006. A year and a half later Rihanna does the same thing and wants to be rockstar, just like Kelis and her lablemate Fefe Dobson. Right……
@royalkev
🙂
You obviously didn’t read my revised position on Gwen! 🙂 I agreed once I thought about it! She did a good job of breaking away from the intial position the media placed her in as the “new Madonna”. A label they seem to give any young blonde in the pop world!!
I’M WITH THE OTHERS ON HERE WHO SAYS ADELE IS SLAYING EVERYONE WITHOUT ALL THAT DANCE POP UPTEMPO CRAP! TRUE TALENT FINALLY PREVAILS…
@AuntieJackie
You better bring the facts…LOL!
I don’t know why they are even trying with you today!! 🙂
@AUNTIEJACKIE
Your DEF Reaching…..If Rih Swagga jacked them then Bee swagga jacked JLo and Shakira.
Nothing is original, its about making your inspiration (whether style or music) you own and that she certainty did! Many didnt even know of Fefe or cared until it was apparent her and Rih had similar style and that says a lot. Plus when you really look @ Fefe style compared to Rih’s its not that similar. Thats like saying Fefe jacked Avril….The only similarities between the two is that there both Black w/ edgier looks and Fefe said that herself! Plus this has no relevance to your comment…The Rock/edgy look wasnt a TREND in Urban/ or Pop music like it is now…and it was done AFTER Rihanna took it on by most! BE Real now
@I’M A BILLY GOAT ….BAA SPANK ME HARDER YEEHA
LOL …Wait are you serious? because um Rih was doing the outrageous looks and pushing the envelope in music and fashion before Gaga o_O
Exhibit A: http://28.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_la3h53aNFh1qe8jaqo1_400.jpg
Dont try me….I have loads of facts and receipts *Flips Bang*
Like Really…
The trend of that moment was basically the Beyonce look with blond weaves, and diva-ish wear …be Real. And Rih went in a totally different direction which wasn’t expected and straight dominated the look! afterwards, ppl came out of the wood works trying the look because of Rih, its no secret. The music trend was DEF Contemp R&B and she had songs like “Breakin Dishes” on the album and i remeber ppl side-eying her songs on the album and now MANY are going for the “different” sound and look.
@dante
lots of singles have sold over 5million, and katy perry isnt fading anytime soon. how many artist can you name have had their 4th single reach #1?
@ Billy goat, No I got you!… It’s just that I was in agreement with your first reaction. It was my first reaction too! Then I also had to think about it and get past the image. Gwen is very original and I actually think she has more talent than Madonna, imo.
ThePagewithroyalkev.b*******.com
@ROYALKEV
REALLY?? I Cant. I Seriously dont think people who say things like that have any true knowledge on Madonna and her legacy. What makes Gwen more talented? Its Def not vocally or performance wise.
@RoyalKev
I SOOO agree! I think Gwen is more talented than Madonna!
Gwen is my b****! And I think she is VERY VERY VERY underrated! I do think she has some Madonna influences (a smidgen) but she definitely possesses more creativity and originality than 95% of alot of artists, male and female.
Gwen to me shits on Fergie, Gaga, Rihanna, Ke$ha, Katy, and whoever else there is to be compared to her in that instance.
Props to @ Dion-ish standing his ground. I wasn’t born in the 80’s so I’m not that familiar with her music but I think Madonna deserves a lot of credit that she doesn’t get now from most music lovers. Gwen was different but vastly underrated. Some of her material was solid but most was not that substantial to be a classic.
@Dion-ish
You can’t change the opinions of others, arguing with them over rih will only make them hate her more…
@ I’m a billy goat
🙂 Ugh. Everyone knows Rihanna simply taps into fads. It’s only the delusional that won’t admit it.
@SANE BEYHANNA STAN
Thank You, and yea i really dont try to but false interpretations really p*** me off. If someone says such and such has horrible music, cant sing, whatever…great but im going to express my opinion. Saying false ish is what sets me off really…Like come on, Rih is always setting trends, or doing the unusual she doesn’t do “whats In”. thats been the case since GGGB. beforehand, yea she was definitely going w/ the trend. And thats REAL. Thats all i can be, im not going to denounce any artist out of hate (except cedric). Im all about true facts.
@AUNTIEJACKIE
OK. Goodbye!
Im sure thats all you have to say after reading my comment because whats true is true and whats b*******, is b*******…and you just exposed your b*******, and solemnly talking out your ass
BYE!
In what world is Gwen more talented then Madonna like seriously? Were? Please EXPLAIN. i respect and love Gwen…but thats some BS. Half of you saying that probably dont know of Madonna’s legacy or pop music…Thats all
@ Dion_ish, I’m aware of Madonna’s artistry. I actually enjoy her earlier (more classic )work. Let’s be honest though, Gwen definitely carries a tune better. I don’t think Madonna was much of a vocalist to begin with. She had a mediocure voice(just starting out), but now her best days are behind her, as far as that’s concerned. Not taking anything away from her – because that happens to most artist. Madonna’s voice went from decent to sour though. She doesn’t sing half as well as she use to today. She sounds very stale now (in her last few concerts). She’s actually someone that I think should even lip her ballads! Anyway, what she does get points for is reinvention. Her image was always something refreshing. Unlike Gaga, she’s original in the creativity department (but I’d give Gwen points for this as well, even though Madonna was slightly better at it). Music wise it’s a tie- Madonna kind of did okay for her first half of career, but anything from the last few albums (Music – Hard Candy) just suck! Ray of light was a little overrated too! Gwen has less music, but I did find her impressive for the most part. So, I think what makes her surpass Madonna is talent. She has it in abundance.
@Amazing Lee, Agreed Gwen is so >>>>>> than all the girls you named(and I like Fergie and Ke$sha).
ThePagewithroyalkev.b*******.com
DANGEROUSLY IN LOVE IS A CLASSIC R&B ALBUM WE ALL KNOW THAT. HOW CAN DIL AGED BADLY WHEN PEOPLE STILL GOING CRAZY ON CRAZY IN LOVE ? THAT ALBUM WILL NEVER AGED BADLY IMO. CLASSIC NEVER AGED BADLY DO YOU THINK PEOPLE STILL LISTEN TO LAURYN HILL LAST ALBUM ? TO PRINCE PURPLE RAIN ? YES OF COURSE EVEN ITS NOT EVERYDAY DIL IS CLASSIC . THE END OF STORY
I CANT THE DELUSIONAL HERE SAYING GWEN IS MORE TALENT THAN MADONNA. LIKE WTF ?
B**** PLEASE IM NOT HERE FOR THAT
@ROYALKEV
OK…And We’ll have to agree to disagree and i respect your opinion on that front BUT….
I Find it Baffling that some of the SAME people criticizing Madonna or Rihanna vocally, and saying there fans are only fans because of there “somewhat” of an original style are praising Gwen because of her “somewhat” of an original style …NOT based on her vocal talent or performances…o_O
@FREEBITCH AKA GODGA SOLDIER
Seriously, Im like this O_o …Mouth Wide Open LOL
Its so baffling to me, like……really??
@Doin_ish, cool *shakes*… Until we meet again on a Janet post! 🙂
Kudos to you though for taking it well!
I do see how this may sound absurd to some people because Madonna has sold millions of records, but I seperate all of that(even when it comes to my favorites). I see their strengths and flaws and try to keep it 100!
ThePagewithroyalkev.b*******.com
@ROYALKEV
Ok…And Me Too, TRUST. i wasn’t basing it off status…
You cant compare a Gwen live performance to a Madonna Live performance IMO
And neither are vocally amazing…But Madonna has better control and dances.
But Yea, We can agree to disagree….
And Whats also Funny is Gwen and Rihanna are the same type of performers….Edgy/Rock-ish free spirited with no extreme choreo and fitting for Rock festivals opposed to Award shows….
And thats for some of the individuals that down Rihanna live but praise Gwen.
This is truly baffling.
LOL @ Gwen being the same type of performer as Rihanna.
Gwen dances hard, hits notes on key, does f****** push ups and sweater her ass off, crowd surfs…..
Dion_Ish is a f****** comedienne!
I. just. can’t.
I must be getting old at 22 years of age. This b**** had the nerve to say Rihanna and Gwen are the same type of performer.
Will someone please Drag Dion_Ish’s ass back to the psycho ward?
@AUNTIEJACKIE
OBV you havent seen Gwen live because she hardly hits notes on key..lol like are u serious? Plz do your research…Shes not even a dancer o_O
Rihanna is even a far better vocalist then Gwen.
Rihanna is a better vocalist then Gwen. F******. Stefani? Ugh. The B**** Rihanna is a better vocalist than no one. Listen to Gwen’s vocal acrobatics and give me a call back. No one says Gwen sounds like a Billy Goat getting slaughtered.
You have taken stanning to a new level. Next thing out of your mouth is going to be that Rihanna dances better than Ciara. That she sings better than Whitney.
You are official a crazy. I’m done.
@AUNTIEJACKIE
Do your research….Thats all.
you obviously have no clue about Gwen’s performances. if you honestly can sit here and say shes hits notes on key, and a better dancer and singer then Rihanna..then ur delusional, and obv just have a deep hate for Rihanna thats near obsessed. Thats like saying Kelis is better then Beyonce live JUST because she’s more original by some means.
@Dion-ish
I understand what your saying, I mean it is what it is. If they don’t like rihanna they wouldn’t even bring her up *sips tea* Hell I don’t like a lot of artist and you won’t catch me bringing them up At All!
Why don’t you just give it up @AuntieJackie you and Dion-ish aren’t going to get anywhere with this gwen vs rihanna arguement. Who you like more is a matter of preference I guess.
@AUNTIEJACKIE
Really sweetie? if you believe Gwen is a better vocalist your fooling yourself…..niether her or Rihanna are vocal powerhouses and have unique tones, but being ive ACTUALLY heard the best and worst of both, Rihanna is far better…..your not judging off real interpretation and research, your judging off a name basis, and clearly ur despise of Rihanna.
Your a JOKE. so BYE!
@AUNTIEJACKIE
But Yea im DONE arguing over that…..SHOW me a Gwen Vocal performance or performance overall that SHOWS your claims??
SHOW ME. Because obviously i DOUBT you have any clue, and would have to spend time actually looking and watching. I can show u one off back from BOTH.
@ Say Behannastan
I’m not arguing about who is the better vocalist. It’s obvious who is. People always write off questions of vocal talent by attributing it to preference. That’s the easy way to avoid facing facts about a fav. Either you sing on key or you can’t. Either a sound is discordant or it’s not.
@SANE BEYHANNA STAN
Obviously, the chick is pressed. I bet u she has no REAL knowledge on Gwen, she just doesn’t like Rihanna and would fukin big Heidi Montag up as better then Rihanna…
@AUNTIEJACKIE
OK…and ur opinion been irrelevant since you claim Gwen sings on key when “clearly” she doesnt. But you wouldnt know because u dont watch her live, your just talking out ur ass!
@AuntieJackie
Yes that is true, Vocal talent Is up for debate though no? I mean if justin bieber can get signed then vocal talent can be argued. Rihanna is NOT a vocalist but she has her days, I’ve never liked Gwen that much but she’s a solid live performer.
@Dion-ish lol hun I swear you go all the way In!
This is just all TEW funny to me because i have the Harajuku Lovers Tour DVD …watch it occasionally, Huge Fan….seen her live plenty of times and i also love Rihanna and im judging purely on the FACTS.
Gwen doesn’t sing? Uh, listen to Tragic Kingdom. No real knowledge of Gwen? I guess buying the Tragic Kingdom CD when I was 7 years old doesn’t count and seeing her sweat, dance, do f****** push ups, sing her ass off and embrace her fans in concert doesn’t count.
Girl Sit. I don’t care about Rihanna! I mentioned her in passing but it’s YOU her made it a big deal. Rihanna is a studio singer with a great stylist and hit songs. She isn’t my concern, so don’t even try it.
Gwen Stefani is, because I’m a fan.
@Dion-ish
So quick question would you honestly say Rihanna>Britney live(NOW) in all honesty
@ Sane
Rihanna has her moments. I really like when she finds the correct song for her tone! Rude Boy, Umbrella, ect. I don’t like when she yells or “bleats”.
@ Sane
& Disturbie!
Why is it so hard to believe that someone actually thinks that Gwen is more talented than Madonna? I mean really? Is it a FACT that someone can’t be more talented than Madonna. Has she sold MILLIONS of records? Yes. Is she a legend? Yes. Is she an Icon? Yes. Is she creative and original in most cases? Yes. Is she an arguable candidate for the title “Queen of Pop”? Yes. But does all of that automatically make her more talented than most? HELL TO THE NO. Music? Mostly good. Vocalist? Meh. Dancing? More like aerobics. Performing? More like a senseless Broadway performance. She’s overrated, IMO. And just because someone doesn’t agree with the notion that she is SOOOO very talented doesn’t indicate that they don’t know much about her catalog, discography, legacy, etc. I like some of her music, but that’s where it stops, much like my feelings toward Rihanna and Britney.
@AuntieJackie
I thought you hated rihanna but now I understand you a little more if you can say that rihanna has her moments then I KNOW your not biased. Like myself I’m a rih fan but I also love Old Mariah, Christina, Alicia,etc
@AUNTIEJACKIE
WOW. You actually did some research…..Took a little long for you to respond, was google running slow?? Glad you find someone elses comment to use. You dont have a clue doll, Just give it up…She DEF didnt sing on key in those performance, nor dance. Gave Hella energy? Yes Ma’am sorta like Rihanna does as well….ie Rock in Rio.
@SANE BEYHANNA STAN
Now…Rihanna is a better performer. Shes not the perfect vocalist, nor has she claim to be BUT she gives it energy and sass, and has FUN on stage…She does it her way, her style. And its very fitting, i enjoy it. Her and Gwen perform on a similar base.
@~AMAZING.LEE~
Nobody is saying Madonna is the most talented b**** on the earth….But saying shes mediocre as a performer and then praising Gwen is a little absurd, its like show me those Gwen performances please….because she isn’t near as good of a performer as Madonna.
@Dion-ish
Hun I’m aware rihanna is a different kinda of performer lol. Even when she sucks she’s a lot more interesting to watch then those who perform better then her *cough*Ci-error*cough* Rihanna is different and she has talent its just not as obvious
@AUNTIEJACKIE
Hmmm IDK. Rihanna sounds BEST singing her ballads (like Unfaithful and Take A Bow) and when she sings Bob Marley (ie Oprah) she does Really well.
Sometimes she does well on those songs like Rude Boy & Whats My Name, but on songs like Disturbia & Umbrella…She has some off moments every now and then.
@SANE BEYHANNA STAN
Exactly my thoughts….
@Dion-ish
Where in my comments did I praise Gwen’s performances? I think she’s a decent performer, definitely nothing spectacular, but I also enjoy them more than I do a Madonna performance full of dancers, acrobatics, and other “distractions.” Madonna’s music is what makes her performances watcheable to me. Whereas, Gwen’s music AND energetic style is my preference. I’ve never said you had to sing, dance, and be extremely energetic all at once to be at least a decent performer to me, because I enjoy Barbra/Whitney who just sing, I enjoy MJ/Janet/CB who just dance, and I enjoy Gwen/P!nk who emphasize on a particular energy. Not saying that her performance style is the only thing that makes her more talented to me, just one of, because I think she has a much better voice and actually DANCES better than Madonna.

Rihanna rules this blog
What a f****** messed up post! People really don´t know what a talented DIVA really is anymore…
For the most part I agree with @AuntieJackie
fergie has risen to prominence contemphorary to Gwen stefani , and like her , she is in a group…..
I hate it when people put their PERSONAL views of certain songs or artists over being objective about that song or entertainers legacy. MJStan said it best for me. You can argue who has the greater legacy but don’t let stanwars take it to the point where you won’t give an artist who is NOT your fave credit for what they have done in the industry.
But I will put it like this: If your fave artist is on say, the Top 20 Decade End Airplay List then most likely they have songs that will numerous songs that will be remembered from that decade, depending on the format: http://www.billboard.com/charts-decade-end#/charts-decade-end/radio-songs-artists?year=2009

Let’s stop this foolery now. Rihanna has nice songs but in no way is she talented! She doesn’t write her hits, she can’t sing, she can’t dance and she can’t perform for s***! Name one Rihanna performance that truly wows. I know Bey, MJ, and Janet have many. Rihanna just dresses pretty nd has nice songs. In that case you might as well stan for her stylist and her producers!
THESE POST KILL ME!!! LIke if I didn’t know better I would think all you people were related to these artist!! Defending b****** like they’re your own family! STANS on that Grape Juice are the most INTENSE of any site I’ve ever been on!! #itsnotthatserious #ignorethehaters and If you’re posting on a post of an artist you can’t stand and only have negative things to say #lame and you just wasted your time #dumbass

Rihanna is a better vocalist then Gwen. F******. Stefani? Ugh. The B**** Rihanna is a better vocalist than no one. Listen to Gwen’s vocal acrobatics and give me a call back. No one says Gwen sounds like a Billy Goat getting slaughtered.
