Whenever I feel bad about my kid not thinking I’m cool despite my awesome job I think about all the celebrities whose teenagers also don’t consider them cool. I’ve heard this from so many celebrities, but I remember that Liev Schreiber said his kids don’t think much of him, but that he earned dad points when he was on SNL and was able to introduce them to Lil Wayne. (His SNL episode was so good!) So your kids can think your friends or the people you know are cool, just not you. Gwen Stefani was on Seth Meyers recently. He asked how her kids, who are 13, 11 and 5, feel about her music. She said the older two don’t really care about what she does except when she can get them in touch with other celebrities.
On her big break and how she wouldn’t make it on The Voice
We were in the garage for 9 years making music we knew would never get on the radio. Then one day wrote a song called Just a Girl I thought nobody would ever hear and it got on the radio. Anytime anyone listens to my music it just brings me so much joy.“How do you kids feel about your music?”
They don’t really care about me. They ask “mom do you have Ellen’s [number]? I want to play Fortnite with Ninja.”
[From Late Night with Seth Meyers via Youtube]
Gwen is promoting the end of her Vegas show, which has been running for two years. She got so happy talking about it and clearly loves doing it. I was impressed by that part and with how gracious she was about her fans. She said her favorite part was talking to the audience, which was cute.
Gwen was also on Fallon, where she had on a crazy wig which made her look like Janice from the Muppets. Her face isn’t looking as altered now, I’ll give her that. She was great at promoting her show ending and gave away tickets to everyone in the audience She also said Zuma, 11, is a little organizer and works with the backstage crew on her shows.
On Fallon they played the clip where Blake couldn’t identify Hollaback Girl in his last appearance on the show, which was funny. Blake and Gwen have been together for four years now! I’ve heard that Blake gets along really well with Gwen’s kids, and you can tell that it’s important to her to bring them with her when she’s working. It’s not like she’s talking about how hard it is to balance everything, she just wishes her kids would appreciate her more. A lot of parents can relate to that!
Here’s Gwen’s interview on Seth Meyers:

She looks gorgeous! Except the muppet hair. Love Gwen.
Well, not to be mean, but she kind of did look like a muppet on Meyers show. I think she may have overdone it with the injectables or maybe it was the lighting.
I recently saw a fb post compilation of Rob Lowe’s kids dragging him in his IG comments and they are HARSH. It’s hilarious.
I thought she was Iggy Azalea in the header pic.
Gwen’s a babe. I can’t fault her on anything other than she undersells herself as far as men go.
“Her face isn’t looking as altered now,”
whoa…I totally disagree. her face in the header pic looks JACKED. the tip of her nose is too pointy. and those lips!
she looks WAY better in the pics with the blue dress…like GORGEOUS in those.
Yeah, her face is definitely tweeked.
tweeked is too subtle a term. It looks like it came out of a vacuum packaged container. But then again, I personally cannot stand the current LA beauty style.
The residency started June 2018, it hasn’t been two years. Wow, she looks amazing! Head to toe.
“Her face isn’t looking as altered now,”
More like, looking more altered than ever. I’m all for leveraging the tweaks avialable today to fight aging, but this? How can she even TALK wtih a face that tight?
Well her eyes look really weird when she talks. Like her face is so pulled she has difficulty moving her eyes and blinking. She used to be so pretty.
She definitely botoxes to the moon, has had fillers, a couple nose jobs, and veneers AFTER braces. She reminds me of frozen in time Nicole Kidman. It is sad what the both of them did to their faces. But I have read many articles on how insecure Gwen is with her looks, so I am not surprised in the least!
In the blue dress she is an absolute goddess. I’d be lying if I said I didn’t envy her incredible body after three kids.
I don’t care about Gwen Stefani’s job or music either, so I guess I have something in common with her kids.
I’d love to see her let go of the platinum blonde hair and extensions and try something different. Like a pretty brunette bob. She would look even younger than she already does.
Side note, I saw her wedding dress in a wedding dress exhibition in a museum (it was beautiful!) and was STRUCK by how tiny it (and therefore she) was!!
It was one of those things were you know she’s small, but seeing that dress showed me just how tiny Hollywood people really are.
