Last night I enjoyed fashion and gays, I came across someone that looked familiar, but acted completely different.
I know most of you in the younger generation have no idea about No Doubt or how it changed the music industry. From the O.C, this band sky rocketed with their unique sound and front woman Gwen Stefani. For years, No Doubt ruled the charts and had a new single every time you turned around.
Slowly, No Doubt began to experience what most groups did. Someone wanted to break out on their own. Gwen began lending her voice to other star's tracks and eventually announced that she would be releasing her own album. Then right before our eyes, the image that Gwen had kept for years simply vanished.
Flash forward to 2010 at Fashion Week where Gwen was showing her her clothing line, L.A.M.B. Yes I understand she has grown up, so her image has changed on it's own. However that is not what I am worried about. See, Gwen was zipping around backstage, which most designers do, but with Gwen, it was something different. The way her eyes bulged, the was she was visibly shaking. All the signs point to a specific drug that easily could take credit for her uber skinny frame and her hyperness. Talking to her you knew, with the way her words flew out of her mouth and with all the little weird outbursts of sounds that weren't even words, that something was amiss. I hope that I am wrong but I highly doubt it.
What saddens me the most is that I used to look up to Gwen. She never seemed to be the person that would never lout and always be that punk girl from the O.C. Sadly, I was wrong and have lost yet another role model.
