Blonde Episodes

Love, Life, and Blessings

Gobsmacked by Gwen

It’s Saturday already?  Where did my Spring Break go?  Oh well, 6 weeks from yesterday and I’m on summer break, but who’s counting?

I’ve always loved Gwen Stefani.  Maybe it’s because she’s a fellow Southern California girl, maybe it’s her down-to-earth personality, or maybe it’s just her amazing style and oh those red lips!  Whatever the case, I’ve always admired how she was able to pretty much stay out of the spotlight over the years, maintaining a sense of normalcy.

Gwen and the band, No Doubt have a record coming out soon.  I can’t wait to see if their style has changed on this album.  They used to be ska…does anyone even remember what ska is?

Will you buy the new album?  What’s your favorite Gwen or No Doubt song?

Also, some really great news!  My novel comes out a week from yesterday, this Friday, May 6th!!!!  I’m so excited to release the title and artwork to you this week.  I’m even hoping to get it uploaded to Amazon earlier than Friday, but time will tell.  I’m so thankful for all the wonderful support I’ve been given throughout the months (and years) with the process.  You are all so great and I don’t know what I’d do without the blogging community…so to give you a hint…the title is: Murder  _____ _____.
I know, I’m terrible…I can only give you a piece for now!  Have a great Saturday all!

    My first concert was No Doubt for the Tragic Kingdom album. I have every No Doubt album and Gwen’s solo stuff on my IPOD. I love that she changes her look, but never to much. She always stays true to herself. She is a great role model! Yes, I will buy the new album.

    I absolutely love No Doubt. They are my favorite band in the world. And Gwen is so talented and always classy and gorgeous and has the family thing all figured out too. She’s pretty amazing.

    I love Gwen and No Doubt! I saw them a couple of years ago and they were really good! I think my favorite song of theirs is Spiderwebs; whenever I hear it on the radio I always turn it up and sing along at the top of my lungs.

    I’m not really a No Doubt fan–just not my type of music, but Gwen is really pretty (and her husband is HOT!). I think this may be the first time I’ve seen her without bright red lips!
