I love Gwen Stefani.  To me, everything about her is glamorous, punky and spirited and independent all at the same time.  She seems remarkably down to earth, and also very ambitious.  I also love the fact that she is actually a “triple threat” but has never been put in to the “diva” category like JLo and other multiple talented women who can tend to get on your nerves just for the sheer opulence of their life and how everything seems to be “overdone” to the hilt all the time.

Her new album, Sweet Escape is just another reason why she’s been so successful thus far.  She continuously pumps out hits because they really hit a note with the dancer in us, and the secret part of us that loves “fun music”.  Not only that, her sounds are always original, and they usually create a plethora of copycats (think Fergie, nelly furtado, etc. who have all produced music that sounds very similar to Gwen’s unique sounds and tastes).

Gwen Stefani morphed into a style icon from a punky, rasta punk image with a fun twist because she had that bleached blond patinum hair and she wore really cool clothes ( remember when she used to dye her hair pink?) And yet somehow she still managed to keep her style about her, and make it her own. 

Now with her new album, there are several songs I like, including the title track “Sweet Escape” which is one of my favorites on the album, and there are others on there too that are noteworthy, except just maybe one or two that were just not my taste.  Check it out though, she’s got some serious talent and pumps some fun tunes!
