These last four years have been an eye opener to say the least! All of those questions you have, I ask myself everyday and why do they do what they do? Am I the only one who thinks that this is bizarre and an illusion to want to emulate someone who is strange, even if you don’t think they are strange? Now I don’t know what I’m saying as this whole thing is so confusing. Just getting back to this strangeness coming out from everywhere now, do you think that these talented artists are owned by the people who put them up there to be an A lister? Do you think they have a contact that they can’t back out? I don’t know anymore but everything seems staged and fake! The Worlds a stage and we are sitting front row, night after night hoping the curtain would permanently fall

2024-10-06 18:18:32 +0000 UTCI say if you want to be the focus of everyone’s attention then go Cardashian from Star Trek the next Generation. That would turn some heads and maybe get a few Autographs

2023-12-02 16:01:52 +0000 UTCGWEN IS ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS, AND HAVE TO SAY I WAS TRULY SURPRISED THAT SHE WENT THAT ROUTE...SHE'S NATURALLY BEAUTIFUL...

2023-11-06 22:46:16 +0000 UTCIt breaks my heart to see a pretty women like Gwen ruin her beauty with plastic surgery.

2023-05-15 07:45:44 +0000 UTCSold themselves out, as well as getting older, maybe she isn’t aging as beautifully as she would like, not saying the face implants and injections are going to make her any pretty with age, it’s just going to get worse from here

2023-03-10 05:23:27 +0000 UTCI will be honest I never liked she is an attention seeking whore

2023-02-10 06:55:26 +0000 UTCThose have surgeries too, the thing is that it's not so obvious. Now having everything the biggest is the trend.

2022-12-13 15:39:33 +0000 UTCI'll admit I used to always have my nails done and worked in high end retails stores where I have to look the part but when you see the girls around you coming in with the lips and the eyelashes. I can't concentrate on the conversation because I'm too busy thinking about how they paid to look like an idiot. Luckily I'm a horticulturalist now
Kim
2022-12-11 06:27:44 +0000 UTCI’m so glad how you brought up how much they look alike. My autistic brother knows the names of tectonic plates and countries/cities throughout the world. You can even ask him what years world events happened or when movies were released (and who the actors were). However, he cannot identify a single Kardashian 😂

2022-11-30 11:22:39 +0000 UTCDoes she have shoulder implants???

2022-11-01 19:49:20 +0000 UTCIt always puzzled me why people were so fascinated with Kardashians. I remember seeing it way back because people wouldn't shut the hell up about them. Took all but 30 seconds and it became clear people who are susceptible to the trendy brainwash crap fall for it every time. "Did you hear about that new show? Did you hear about that new brand? Did you blah blah blah?"... Since childhood I hated trendy crap. Ironically it reminds me of being in elementary school and listening to the verdict of the OJ trial. All the simpleton idiots chanting guilty including the teacher. Sure he was guilty but I was no fool for the BS and justice system. Unlike the one dimensional thinkers in that 6th grade class I knew they wouldn't convict. I was the only one saying NOT GUILTY!... People giving me dirty looks and calling me an idiot until they read the verdict. But hey back in the 90s being able to see a 30 to 1 of idiots that couldn't grasp the concept of BS that goes on... Here we are all this time later, some grew up and out of it but many still succumbed to it. Ironically if you get outside of this country many have opposing views as they haven't had the same programming.

2022-10-21 02:55:42 +0000 UTCI have not dealt with either of them, I have hopes they would be cool in person though. However I have dealt with Chris Pratt’s father in law (Arnold Schwarzenegger), he wasn’t bad in person. Bruce Willis was super cool 😎
Dustin
2022-10-13 17:22:27 +0000 UTCWhat about Johnny Depp or Chris Pratt? Are they really as nice as they come across?

2022-10-13 02:07:18 +0000 UTCThe only reason i would EVER want to be a Kardashian Sister is if , I was paid in the Millions & Was part of their bloodline family. which is about as possible as lightning striking me down, rare and not something I want.

2022-10-11 02:25:26 +0000 UTCGwen is so naturally beautiful and talented I was shocked to see what she did to herself. I hope she realizes that and takes a step in the direction to be herself again🤍💖

2022-10-10 10:38:26 +0000 UTCFirst I've seen of the show myself - it sounds like they treat people like dirt. Perhaps they all have a side that's sweet-natured, maybe we're just shown the bad stuff...when they're having a bad day... Um..maybe, anyway

2022-10-06 23:24:44 +0000 UTCI used to deal with these people literally on a daily basis when I was a ground support tech at VNY private airport here in LA. I’ve dealt first hand with the Kardashian’s along with all the top A listers, among my many duties was helping them with their bags and doing valet up to their private jets. They’re even worse in person at a private airport where the public can’t see them act out while treating “the help” like dog 💩. The three biggest douchebags I’ve met were Ashton Kutcher, Lil Wayne and Dr Phil (dude acted psychotic). Fortunately there were a few who were cool and treated us with dignity; Martin Sheen and Mark Wahlberg to name a couple. But the rest were just awful.. Joey, if you’d like to hear some interesting stories of my encounters with these creatures in the wild, I would be willing to do an interview.
Dustin
2022-10-06 18:41:47 +0000 UTCWhere are all the naturally hot female celebrity? All the Monica Bellucci, Laetitia Casta, etc ? Its like every single one of them has gone full bimbo plastic Kim Kardashian now. i hate this trend.

2022-10-05 15:48:18 +0000 UTCGeez Dom JA, you know, Gwen prays to the same God you do. Maybe take it up with him/her/it?

2022-10-04 23:22:53 +0000 UTC...and now her face has 'melted' because of all that work done to it. :(
Steve T.
2022-10-04 11:33:27 +0000 UTCShe was indeed, her smile has melted a lot of hearts :). Now it freezes them, mine for sure.
Jasmin Rucic
2022-10-03 22:18:33 +0000 UTCI see your point. I think that’s also probably her agent and being impacted by trying to appeal to a younger audience where this make up and hair is (in music) the new trend. It’s still tied to anti aging and not wanting to look old to the youth.
Lady Libidex
2022-10-03 22:18:26 +0000 UTCI agree that is has to do with aging as well but the nails, hairstyle and makeup style doesnt have to be the same, gwen couldve just used some fillers and go on worh her own style but as you see it appears that one goes along with the other every time. 😔

2022-10-01 16:03:23 +0000 UTCSure, if "classy" meant in this instance, 'glorified, vapid skanks with zero talent other than attention-whoring' -_-
Steve T.
2022-10-01 15:58:06 +0000 UTCI think it more has to do with “anti aging obsession” versus wanting to look like a Khardasian directly. The plastic surgery is all the same. The fillers and Botox and lifts create the same look. The K crew just piloted it as the marketing gurus they are - they were the first.. I am crossing 40 and there is so much pressure to not have wrinkles, not have sunk cheeks (naturally our faces as women start to sink in and lose that baby fat) so they fill it back in the same way. The med spas, the non-surgical options that target my age group - What you have is this carbon copy face even if the patient may not have realized that was going to be the outcome. We need to allow women to age and focus on having some wrinkles, a jawline that sinks, lips that shrink so we can keep who we are! I haven’t had any surgery and it’s other women who laugh and stare - call me old hag. But I don’t want to look like them. I want to look like me.

2022-09-30 22:03:31 +0000 UTCIf we had a draft like Russia, or any other country. We'd be screwed. It would be , "make sure to use the proper pronouns." Yet, another topic which annoys me. But hey, what do I know. I'm a SHE/HER. 🙄

2022-09-30 19:40:38 +0000 UTCI'm a fan of yours, Joey my boy, but I want those collective minutes of my life back that you wasted by showing me The Bleughhdashians in all of their 'glory'. I've never seen that much of it before and I NEVER wanted to. I'd rather watch that entire 'Hype House' series uninterrupted. Yeah, you heard me.
Steve T.
2022-09-30 19:03:29 +0000 UTCIt would crack the internet if not outright break it.
Steve T.
2022-09-30 18:57:31 +0000 UTCWell I'm still on my single boy shit at any rate.
Steve T.
2022-09-30 18:54:44 +0000 UTCAgreed. It's the same thing we see in the fashion world where everyone is a size6. Why? I don't get it. They all look like zombies. Starved to death by that abhorrent industry. Gaunt, unhealthy and sick!!
Bonwana
2022-09-30 17:27:51 +0000 UTCI'm an Aussie who has only seen their pictures and the occasional adds for their 'reality' shows on the shitty channels that air them. (It occurs sometimes when I'm flicking thru channels). I am constantly amazed at how often I see people who smother their natural looks and soul with make-up and plastic surgery. Each to their own of course, but I have never understood it. Cheers bananas!!
Bonwana
2022-09-30 17:21:02 +0000 UTCThis vid is literally the most I've ever seen of their show. I think when I originally heard ppl talk about it, it sounded like it would just make me stupider for watching, and I don't need any help in that dept.
Randall Tex Snob
2022-09-30 17:02:20 +0000 UTCi mean, in all fairness, stefani has been having numerous surgeries prior to this last kardashian-esque transformation. i think her first major surgery was a nose job and she just kept going from there. it’s expected in the hollywood machine.

2022-09-30 17:00:47 +0000 UTCJoey I think you’d like great with arse implants, covered in oil on the front of a magazine. You should give it a go
Josh Bell
2022-09-30 16:48:37 +0000 UTCThe bright side to this is its much easier for good people to identify the mentally ill, void of anything natural or wholesome, cheaters, losers and the absolute dross of society.
Robin Johns
2022-09-30 16:09:49 +0000 UTCIt's not that surprising. Gwen was never the brightest bulb. I like some of her music but when I was young No Doubt was known for playing Ska and pop cutesy Ska at best. She has a great voice and somewhat her own style but even that was influenced by having money. In the early 2000s she peddled the Harajuku girls style because I imagine she frequented Japan quite abit. She's always been a vapid, self absorbed girl/ woman the difference is she needed more substance when we were young to be successful. Though you still hit the nail on the head, Joey. And I kinda love you for it.

꒰ა arunyi ໒꒱
2022-09-30 15:41:09 +0000 UTCI don’t blame them. It is an accelerating downward spiral. USA is obsessed with appearance. These days it’s about how you look and where you are. For example, a Kardashian at a infinity pool, doing nothing is highly admired. Someone who is not physically interesting, living in a non-interesting place doesn’t get as much attention from the masses, even if they are extremely talented. That by itself should not be an issue. Seth Godin says that one only needs 1K loyal fans/customers these days to be fairly successful. And I find that to be true. The problem is that Gwen Stefani was used to a certain well-earned but privileged artistic career. She wants that back and it is her right to seek that. So she is just adapting to what is needed these days. Now, a smarter way to live is to just focus on those 1K loyal fans, which can lead her to find new artistic and business breakthroughs. She can’t play the same game the Kardashians are playing. No one should.

Joseph P Borelli Jr
2022-09-30 15:05:25 +0000 UTCI feel its the fear of aging and death. These people use the external world to stay "young" and "happy". Meanwhile, they are either miserable or becoming unhappy, wishing to live in a past that never belonged to them.

2022-09-30 14:45:16 +0000 UTCYes me too, still listen to her old songs, I think being part of Hollywood sometimes make some people go to far with surgery
Blondie F
2022-09-30 14:27:51 +0000 UTCI am so with you with this Kartrashian fashion, all of a sudden everyone wanna look like them, act and even speak with that fake posh California accent even if they never been in Cali. I get that imitating them makes them feel a bit important, inflates their ego a bit, but what about being you? being unique? I remember those good old days when everyone wanted to be different from each other. It's sad.

2022-09-30 14:22:31 +0000 UTCIm pretty sure Gwen got a foxy eye procedure or a face lifting on her eyes.

2022-09-30 14:07:25 +0000 UTCI'm more of the "This is me, take it, or leave it" I refuse to be plastic. Have NO desire to look or act like that. That's sad to want to be something you're not. And nope, you can not buy a personality. Your looks will fade, even with surgery....then what...I think I will stick to being who I am. I'd rather play my drums than to look like, or be like anyone else. ( Not that a million others can't play an instrument.) I'm just saying it's a hell of a lot better. Be who you truly are. The best people I know are the ones who live real life. They have more to offer than someone who has everything.

2022-09-30 12:21:57 +0000 UTCJoey, imagine if we had a military draft today like Russia???!!! Instead of the Air Force fight song would it now be "Period Ahh, Period Uhh" as we lead ourselves into battle? Who would be the officers? Oh wait, I know Demi Lovato Im buying real estate in another country -ASAP - the rest of you should do the same.

2022-09-30 12:19:25 +0000 UTCThe clips you showed are the most I've ever seen of them or their show. Stopped watching TV decades ago. Sad about Gwen, she was so unique back in the day.
Samantha G
2022-09-30 12:14:50 +0000 UTCOh no...I grew up on Gwen Stefani's music. So sad she lost he originality. Infact was researching a lot of artist I followed in the 90s. So many have committed suicide or have over dosed. 😔

2022-09-30 11:12:39 +0000 UTCMy friend is ophthalmologist and we had couple of conversations about how every cosmetic company builds its success. They managed to convince (almost) all the women of the world that aging is an unnatural process that they should boycott. Even though it is inevitable thing that we all experience. They created a problem and created a solution for it.
Očami Čarodejnice
2022-09-30 10:44:35 +0000 UTCMy theory is that she just wants to be relevant again because she passed that age where everything gets saggy. When men get older we usually develope more charismatic features by nature. Women don't because they cover everything up with make-up when they hit puberty. Society is at fault for this. Make up is not doing that beautification trick anymore so plastic surgery is the last option left. This can be fixed by starting to appreciate the inner beauty of people at a young age and all mother's are the role models. I've never liked make-up. It displays a certain insecurity. When women don't wear any it shows that they are confident with how to look naturally and confidence is incredibly attractive.

2022-09-30 10:08:53 +0000 UTCI was just thinking about this a couple of days ago. How women were really authentic and naturally beautiful in 90´s, curly hair, big eyes, almost no makeup and if so, it looked very classsy. Women could be dressed from head to toes, with no skin showing and still knew how to look sexy. They knew how to present themselves. This is just sad.
