Wow, she's really trying hard to be offended.
I think it is totally acceptable to enjoy the Harajuku girls because there are not that many other Asian people in the media and we have to take what we can get. Amos n' Andy had lots of fans didn't they?
Does she really understand what the Harajuku girls in Japan are all about? Does she not get that the whole Japanese schoolgirl uniform thing is really popular - in Japan? So we dis Asians if we enjoy what millions of Japanese are already enjoying? I guess she hasn't heard of Sailor Moon? LOL. And it's lost on her that they are muses, creative and cutting edge. As to the schoolgirl uniform look, guys the world over seem to enjoy seeing ladies dress like that, ladies of all ethnicities.
The girls are her METAPHORICAL muses, you fat stupid lesbian shrew.
Metaphors are lost on Margaret, methinks.

Gwen has really suceeded at establishing herself as a major solo artist. And quite creatively, I might add!

blackface on cho would be an improvement. better yet a put a bag over her head. I wonder how often cho visit korea, where she might be mistaken for a steer and turned into a very unappetizing dish of bulgoki?

Didn't Prince have Lisa, Wendy, Sheila E, Vanity and the dude in the surgeons mask? Plus Appolonia/Kat at one time or another...

Actually I understand why Stefani may appeal to lesbians, but inspire hostility amongst liberals. When she married Gavin Rossdale, she married into Bush

Unnngh.
What an embarassment Cho is.
To: gopwinsin04
If anything, if Margaret is intent on making this a racial thing instead of the cultural phenomenon it is, she should be thanking Gwen for bringing a unique aspect of Japanese culture to a more mainstream forum. Some of us had heard of
Harajuku girls prior to Gwen, but now, many more people know.

And I think Margaret is wrong, Gwen may or may not be exploiting them like characters in 'blackface' decades ago, but these ladies are her muses, the inspiration for her creativity and they enjoy much the same fame that Gwen herself does.

I'm glad you liked it, more Harajuku pics to offend the fat ugly korean lesbian!
To: gopwinsin04
I read some of her archived "columns" while I was at her blog. She can't write to save her life and she is NOT funny. She seriously compared Nick Berg and Eugene Armstrong's (and others)barbaric beheadings to how the detainees were "tortured" at Abu Gharaib and said we should understand that we drove Zarqarwi and his henchman to kill because of OUR actions.
Enough. This woman is a fat cow who typifies the idiocy of the liberal lefist. They are appeasing morons whose philosophy will bring only death to our nation and its people.
