Gwen Stefani was the only white girl that I know that had a lot of cultural diversity in her video and she does multiple genres like pop,rock,r&b, and hip hop. I respect because not a lot of people do that nowadays still
@@hahhahahaha1615 a majority of millennials that grew up with these so called “culture vultures” or “culture appropriators” that you call did not offend people back in the day. They took it as if they were appreciating it acknowledging their culture. And yet many artists still do this.

@@theultrawarrior7448 Latino*. A lot of southsiders aren't only Mexican homie. We got Guatemalan, Salvadorian, Ecuadorian, Puerto Rican, etc. Homies that are southsiders as well.
also no extremism... I just watched "what you waiting for" and she went harajuku, here shes chicana... and noone is going crazy about appropiation just good music.
@syrena6475 no I think he was implying that it wasn't as widespread as it is now. In the early 2000s racists were in the closet and had to hide that fact from ppl, now racists get their own platform on media and it's popularized. Sort of like that other community that's changed since the 90s/2000s, internet gave them freedom so they gained power.
as a hispanic i always felt proud to watch this growing up, it was the representation alot of us don’t get, and alot of people are quick to call out cultural appropriation but if you notice in the end, theres people of so many different colors and thats truly the image of diversity and unity the world deserves
@@lauraalonso4642 I feel this whole cultural appropriation sometimes is just made to stop people from mixing or sharing experiences with other people. Us lations do not make a fuss about it because we are already mixed up. It is forbidden now to adopt a new culture. It's a segregation move.
This is appreciation because she didn't water it down, she definitely had Latinx creatives behind the screens and on camera. She also explicitly said a Latina named Mercedes influenced her image in this music video. That's the difference.
doesnt matter this is sstill cultural appropiation but white hollywood didnt said nothign back in the years i love this song and video but this is still cultural appropiation
and again, i said this in another old video, but there will NEVER BE ANOTHER TIME LIKE THE EARLY 2000’s. If you were too young to be there, that’s your loss. WHAT A TIME THIS WAS🙌💯
Gwen has always had an original style that’s carried on through the years. I respect that. She celebrates other cultures without losing herself. Appreciate, don’t assimilate; that’s Gwen and I love that about her.
As a 19yr old Mexican American at the time of the release of this song and watching the music video. I felt she represented and showed love to all cultures/Ethnicities. I never felt offended or annoyed by her. It's rare to see now a days music artist represent different cultures. They're too self absorbed.
If you've followed Gwen since early No Doubt, then you know she's always been fond of Chola, Mexicali and Kawaii culture. We all take what we love, add our flair to it, to end up with our unique persona. She isn't trying to be someone else. It's who she is, expressing what she loves. ♡♡♡
@@haileyrae3426 and why should it be sick and not 100% normal? who are you to judge it? you are just a jealous parrot not knowing what you are talking about.
People forget that Gwen grew up in LA. She was surrounded by culture and it influenced her. Just because she's white doesn't mean she can't do the culture she was exposed to and grew to love.
If she released this song today she would be accused of cultural appropriation😧😩. I miss the days when people were able to be creative without barriers.
She was 35 or 36 when this was filmed, depending on what part of the year this was filmed. She is currently 46 now. Plus she was younger than 32 when no doubt had their first single. Their first single was released during the 1990s when she was in her 20s.
J Lo doesn't drink much or possibly at all and she has said in many interviews how protective she is about her sleep and tries to get to bed at 10. She really works hard and takes care of herself. Gwen also has been known to work hard at keeping her weight down because she loves fashion and likes to wear it, and also has kept a rigorous workout schedule, at least in the past.
Nearly 20 years on and this track still remains in my regular circulation. Still remains in my top 10 favourite songs of all time and of course my favourite Gwen Stefani song ever
Where in the world do you see Mariah Carey albums in the background??? I saw a collage of pages from magazines on the wall of the bedroom. Nothing on the walls of the nail shop, so I think you must have the wrong music video.
I used to listen to this while in nursing school. It kept my spirits lifted. It reminded me of what was to come. Now I feel “luxurious” since I fought through! Hope this message inspires whomever reads it.
If you're from Cali and grew up in the 70s-90s you know there is a common history between cholo and skater-surfer-punk rocker culture. The same clothes (dickies, pendletons, winos, chucks) and some sureno gangs started as punk rock gangs. Gwen grew up in a punk rock band in the 1980s in OC and she grew up around Raza.
People wylin lol Cultural appropriation and insensitivity is DEFINTELY a thing, but also is being ridiculously on the other side too (people can't seem to understand that both can exist at once and there's a spectrum lmao Idiots). She was SO respectful. Chola dress isn't even owned culturally so, like, so many people from th Hood dressed that way on the block including myself lmao. It's more regional than anything, not cultural. Plus, it ain't like she was tryna speak some gringa Spanish or cool etc, she did nothing offensive here. People coming to an old ass song that had no issues (I can sometimes, when appropriate, see treading the past if something was truly inappropriate!) to complain and whine. Go listen to something else then damn lol
As a super guera Mexican American Gwen never came off as a culture vulture, to me she was paying her respects to the people she grew up around in Southern Cali. To me she was a reflection of who I was bc I never truly felt a part of my own culture. She helped shape my view of myself and I’m forever grateful for her 💗
Some celebrities truly know how to celebrate different cultures with respect and responsibility.. Gwen is respected by the Chicano culture because she’s from Anaheim. Chicano town She can’t do no wrong unlike Kardashian and Jenner
@Michael you're family friend's goddaughter is only 1/8 black. Ofcourse she's going to look like a caucasian chick like Gwen Stephanie. They're both caucasian
I seen so many people give her shit for this but when I was younger and I saw this I was like Dannng she really did that I felt so proud and honored that she was incorporating our culture plus she is from Orange County she said in an interview that she was inspired by the Latina girls in her high school she had this one girl in particular in her class that she used to talk to and this was her whole style aesthetic and that gwen really loved the way she did her makeup nd her whole style that's where that scene came from when she's in the mirror separating her eyelashes with a needle cause she said in class that girl would do her make up and she did the exact same thing to her eyelashes. So yeah she got inspired by the cholas in her high school
Rayven In Wonderland ferg’s gotta mexican gramma, i was hella shook when i found out she’s mainly white!!! always thought lil mama was like half latina and half white or summ
This song brings sweet memories of my then boyfriend. . We are both nurses working 12 hours shift. We took our first gettaway vacation and stayed in a really nice hotel resort with Egyptian cotton sheets, and this song came on. We danced to this song. Great memories!!!
Thank you. Nobody here is showing love for the H-Town home. It's ok tho. I rep that Lone Star State all day mane. Wut it do Bexar, Travis, and Harris County?! Chillin out here in the West, but I'm a Southern girl at heart. Slim Thugga in the building with them diamonds in his mouth....that's how we do on that Third Coast! I love the west, but I'm a Lone Star Lady till the day I die💯❤
This song motivates me to work hard; my husband and I have a small business, we are doing ok for now and every time I hear this song makes me wanna work harder to get a better life just like the song says
Same, me and my family are in a hard situation atm so I've been working really hard to save up money, listening to this brings me in a good mood and motivates me 💗
This really lives up to it's name, sounds luxurious AF. This was when Houston rappers signed to major labels for a bit and were doing dope collabs. My boy Slim Thugga 💪
I loooooooved it when pop chicks from the yesteryears like Pink, Gwen, J.Lo & Brit explored their hood/R&B side. Especially when it was accompanied by those hot ass beats by Missy Elliott, Timbaland, Storch & Pharrell. Such a unique time. 2005 last of the golden era.
Sadly a lot of people disagree with you. Theres a lot of black women who have made culture appropriation videos about gwen and they make her out to be this horrible person. Gwens not perfect and if she was to offend another culture i know it would only be by accident..
Priscilla Barcenas what do you mean?? Have you ever been to LA? Can you not see the culture??, it’s not always about us, I’m glad she has people from different backgrounds. I recommend you watch “Freedom Writers” :)
Eza E wait what? I don’t see her appropriating my culture at all, she’s been the only women I see not label us as gangsters and use violent and nasty lyrics. Although I see your point this video does not have anything you just mentioned
This is why i love gwen, she has never appropriated any culture. She is so honest about where her ideas and inspiration comes from. Same with her reggaeton style, same with her harajuku style. She never pretends that she came up with these themes on her own. Appropriation only happens when a culture steals and tries to own someone else's culture. Plus its really good music.
Well, it is technically appropriation, but it's not the bad kind of appropriation. What people don't understand is that cultural appropriation is a neutral academic term. It just describes something that exists. And there are layers to it. For example, I sometimes wear a Celtic ring, even though I'm not Irish. Maybe there's some drops of Irish ancestry, but if there is, it's so far back in the family tree that it's completely irrelevant. So this is a form of appropriation. I also used to wear a Catholic rosary necklace in high school, just because I thought it was a pretty necklace - even though I'm not Catholic and didn't grow up in a Catholic household. This is a form of cultural appropriation. Just not the offensive kind. Cultural appropriation only becomes bad, or by extension racially insensitive, if a white person tries to pass off other cultures' innovations and ideas as their own without giving proper credit. In general, here is a rule of thumb: if it is a culture historically marginalized by western colonialism/imperialism appropriating any culture, then no harm, no foul. But if it is a culture appropriating a culture traditionally exploited by western colonialism/imperialism, then that's when people usually get cranky. This is why nobody would get mad at Mexico for, say, appropriating German culture.
@Michael Right like you can be mixed black mom white dad, and still pass as white. it wouldn't be cultural appropriation if that biracial child claimed black culture from their black mother it makes complete sense to do that actually
this song is so attractive wtf

She was SO respectful. Chola dress isn't even owned culturally so, like, so many people from th Hood dressed that way on the block including myself lmao. It's more regional than anything, not cultural. Plus, it ain't like she was tryna speak some gringa Spanish or cool etc, she did nothing offensive here. People coming to an old ass song that had no issues (I can sometimes, when appropriate, see treading the past if something was truly inappropriate!) to complain and whine. Go listen to something else then damn lol
@@g1ng3rsn4ps I think it matters if it’s done respectfully or disrespectfully 100%
Gwen doing what she loves grew up around the RAZA !!
exactly people are just dramatic
@@g1ng3rsn4ps i was told she grew up with hispanics
Today’s generation can have Cardi B and Megan The Stallion. I’m taking Gwen all day
lmfaooo
Same ❤
Why can’t music like this be on the radio again
Julios mind because people would rather listen to EDM infused pop music instead of this kind of pop.
Boy the song ain't even 10 years old yet
Atomic Pressure this song is 15 years old...
I never hear rnb or hip hop on the radio no more.. its all trap and acoustic shiiit
I ALREADY HAVE IN LOVE WITH GWEN SINCE I WAS 5 .LOVE FROM INDONESIA ❤
This music video is a definition of mid-2000s
As a super guera Mexican American Gwen never came off as a culture vulture, to me she was paying her respects to the people she grew up around in Southern Cali. To me she was a reflection of who I was bc I never truly felt a part of my own culture. She helped shape my view of myself and I’m forever grateful for her 💗
Raymond Romero
Exactly!
This generation would cancel her for this, we loved it in our time 🤫🤭🤐
Not really us mexicans aint soft like the rest 😂 as long as it ain’t disrespectful we coo w it 💯
@@Ayo.kream369 this generation's wypipo would cancel her tho 🫠
Oof. Gwen during her chola days. Goddess.
LOLOLOL yes ! when white girls were cool, p!nk, Gwen, fergie, playing with their image without causing a commotion
Yup
@IDK haha .... not sure i can find any top of my head... there are some greats but i'm talking abiut being ''COOL''
Hahahahhahahahahhaha YASSSSS
Except she's not an Aztec / Mexica... Beware of those that say they are Aztec and are NOT
An Isley brothers sample is always a guaranteed hit !
that and a police whistle. you put that in a song it's a wrap!
Oh I thought it was Notorious
@@saritabonita2135 he used the sample as well
@@learner18 yeah ik now lmao
Facts
this song samples Notorius BIG's "Big Poppa", who samples at the same time "Between the Sheets" by The Isley Brothers. [?]

Yass!
+dianagb1 j
I feel fancy when I heard this at my first job. I work at a grocery store.
Some celebrities truly know how to celebrate different cultures with respect and responsibility.. Gwen is respected by the Chicano culture because she’s from Anaheim. Chicano town
She can’t do no wrong unlike Kardashian and Jenner
@Michael She doesn't have Armenian ancestry, she said it here ua-cam.com/video/CQDQ5_f3vgo/v-deo.html
@Michael you're family friend's goddaughter is only 1/8 black. Ofcourse she's going to look like a caucasian chick like Gwen Stephanie. They're both caucasian
What you think this is aproppation you’ll this is being mexican😂?
@Michael My girl Gwen doesn't have Armenian blood lol, but that's a famous rumor

This WAS and will ALWAYS be ICONIC!
I'm sorry 🤑
I really appreciate this song😩
chad
me too
I seen so many people give her shit for this but when I was younger and I saw this I was like Dannng she really did that I felt so proud and honored that she was incorporating our culture plus she is from Orange County she said in an interview that she was inspired by the Latina girls in her high school she had this one girl in particular in her class that she used to talk to and this was her whole style aesthetic and that gwen really loved the way she did her makeup nd her whole style that's where that scene came from when she's in the mirror separating her eyelashes with a needle cause she said in class that girl would do her make up and she did the exact same thing to her eyelashes. So yeah she got inspired by the cholas in her high school
I remember separating my eyelashes using a safety pin.
She's holds her own
culture appropriation wasnt a thing back then.....everyone in L. A. Dressed like this every race not just Mexicans....
I remember this interview.
Jealous cuz when I do my hair like that I look like la India Maria. Lol JK. I love Gwen Stefani ❤
Gwen Stefani is invited to the carne asada
Is that a BBQ?
Mrboy21ful For Latinos specifically Mexicans so yes it’s like a bbq
Yes she is
🤣🤣
LMAOOO
She been a beast. Forgotten legend fr fr
Gwen - Luxurious💸
Fergie - Glamorous💰
The only white chicks that could do RnB justice back in the day 😎
Nelly Furtado too babe.. And these 3 also can rap.. Memories!
Hugh W is fergie 100% white? I thought she was mixed of something. Not sure what her mix was or anything

Gwen is definitely invited to the carne asada, NO DOUBT! 😅
Lol good one Orale!!!!!!
🤣😭💯
Hell yeahhh
Hahaha 😂😂😂❤️❤️ for real !!!
Hahaha
This song brings sweet memories of my then boyfriend. . We are both nurses working 12 hours shift. We took our first gettaway vacation and stayed in a really nice hotel resort with Egyptian cotton sheets, and this song came on. We danced to this song. Great memories!!!
ok but slim thug was really poppin back then! and gwen was IS so fineee lmao
Thank you. Nobody here is showing love for the H-Town home. It's ok tho. I rep that Lone Star State all day mane. Wut it do Bexar, Travis, and Harris County?! Chillin out here in the West, but I'm a Southern girl at heart. Slim Thugga in the building with them diamonds in his mouth....that's how we do on that Third Coast! I love the west, but I'm a Lone Star Lady till the day I die💯❤
This song motivates me to work hard; my husband and I have a small business, we are doing ok for now and every time I hear this song makes me wanna work harder to get a better life just like the song says
Your hard work will pay off I promise you that!!!
Same, me and my family are in a hard situation atm so I've been working really hard to save up money, listening to this brings me in a good mood and motivates me 💗
❤❤❤ all the best
Good luck!!
@yeve5819 it’s been a whole year, KEEP GOING!!!!
As a Latino We Stan Gwen Guadalupe out here
Are u actually latino or an American with latino parents
This really lives up to it's name, sounds luxurious AF. This was when Houston rappers signed to major labels for a bit and were doing dope collabs. My boy Slim Thugga 💪
This is Masterpiece
I loooooooved it when pop chicks from the yesteryears like Pink, Gwen, J.Lo & Brit explored their hood/R&B side. Especially when it was accompanied by those hot ass beats by Missy Elliott, Timbaland, Storch & Pharrell. Such a unique time. 2005 last of the golden era.
Unreleased/Underrated R&B Grooves I miss the R&B Pink!
JLO is from the hood she was raised in the urban area
This was produces by Tony Kanal tho
xox
Yessss!!! Missy elliottt
One of her best songs, if you search this song by yourself you have a great musical taste ☺️✨
😅
Verdade! 👌
I just searched for this and hella good back to back, it just came to my mind
my tia gwendalupe estefani❤️❤️❤️
Her hair tho😍
Her hair & makeup
as fake as the rest of her
Sarah Burggraf Sarah you sound very bitter... work on that 😅
@@sr1445 i do what i want, but nice attempt at taking away my right to an opinion😉
I agree with Sarah though. She's always piled on the make up.
Home girl Gwen is the only one who can do something like this and not offend anyone because she's ACTUALLY showing respect. Love her for that. ❤
When 2004 feels like yesterday but it's been 16 years since then
That’s crazy I was 12 in 2004 😭😭😭
Right?! Seems like yesterday! I was 22 years old and enjoying life.
This came out in 2005 but yes

Well said girl
الفنانة العالمية غوين ستيفاني داءما اكتر من راءعة في اغانيها وستايلها انا معجبة بيها كتيرا
This song/video is still so iconic. It was the song on my myspace profile for almost a year, lol
Notice how she’s showing love for our culture not tearing it down. I miss this era
Janet Garcia couldn’t have said it better you’re so right!
She has her own style mixing a little chola white girl and saw some rich white girl in there too
Sadly a lot of people disagree with you. Theres a lot of black women who have made culture appropriation videos about gwen and they make her out to be this horrible person. Gwens not perfect and if she was to offend another culture i know it would only be by accident..
Priscilla Barcenas what do you mean?? Have you ever been to LA? Can you not see the culture??, it’s not always about us, I’m glad she has people from different backgrounds. I recommend you watch “Freedom Writers” :)
Eza E wait what? I don’t see her appropriating my culture at all, she’s been the only women I see not label us as gangsters and use violent and nasty lyrics. Although I see your point this video does not have anything you just mentioned
This is why i love gwen, she has never appropriated any culture. She is so honest about where her ideas and inspiration comes from. Same with her reggaeton style, same with her harajuku style. She never pretends that she came up with these themes on her own. Appropriation only happens when a culture steals and tries to own someone else's culture. Plus its really good music.
Onyx Fire thats my point. She was honest about her influences
Onyx Fire actually there’s four harajuku girls, love angel music and baby
Well, it is technically appropriation, but it's not the bad kind of appropriation. What people don't understand is that cultural appropriation is a neutral academic term. It just describes something that exists. And there are layers to it.
For example, I sometimes wear a Celtic ring, even though I'm not Irish. Maybe there's some drops of Irish ancestry, but if there is, it's so far back in the family tree that it's completely irrelevant. So this is a form of appropriation. I also used to wear a Catholic rosary necklace in high school, just because I thought it was a pretty necklace - even though I'm not Catholic and didn't grow up in a Catholic household. This is a form of cultural appropriation. Just not the offensive kind.
Cultural appropriation only becomes bad, or by extension racially insensitive, if a white person tries to pass off other cultures' innovations and ideas as their own without giving proper credit.
In general, here is a rule of thumb: if it is a culture historically marginalized by western colonialism/imperialism appropriating any culture, then no harm, no foul. But if it is a culture appropriating a culture traditionally exploited by western colonialism/imperialism, then that's when people usually get cranky.
This is why nobody would get mad at Mexico for, say, appropriating German culture.
dude you forgot to point out the fact that the term "cultural appreciation" exists
Jamie Ryan Storey Lindsay Ellis? Is that you?
This song has a 90's feel to it.
GameAddict51 Biggie Smalls "Big Poppa"
Ahhh she’s so beautiful no one looks like her
Afro Asian Latina queen.... The girls just aren't appropriating like this no more...
She bodied this 🔥
Lmaooooo
When Gwen dresses like a chola it’s art and it’s fashion but when I do it I’m ghetto and I’m trash. Lol
@@jonathancabrera8246 No when you do it its equally as beautiful and artistic. Stop listening to bigotry
Until you realize there are white Chicanos
@Michael Right like you can be mixed black mom white dad, and still pass as white. it wouldn't be cultural appropriation if that biracial child claimed black culture from their black mother it makes complete sense to do that actually
