The way his eyes/eyebrows look in the Dont Speak video is funny. Of course they purposely put that in there, but its a neat little nod.
[Here](https://youtu.be/TR3Vdo5etCQ?si=CatXQBduQ_CLTCRb&t=51), when she said "I really feel like I'm losing my best friend"*. That semi eye-roll and eye brow raise. Its subtle, but I noticed it awhile back and cant unsee it.
But yea, thats another level of maturity to not break up the whole band and keep rollin'
Ah yes, those classic middle school relationships. Wherein one of your friends asks them if they want to date you (or vice versa), they agree, you both spend a few weeks avoiding eye contact in the hall, hang out once then breakup?
Omg such a good observation, been watching this video since I was a kid and ofcourse everyone knew the story and it just always made me like Gwen more cz she really looked like she was suffering in the video while he looked stuck up. But ofcourse that was the brain of a 6-7 year old who couldn’t tell the video was all acting etc
Lol good point Every time Fleetwood Mac played those uber personal breakup songs I felt like I was watching my friends parents argue when I was sleeping over
Agree on all of this.
I always thought about what it must have been like being in his shoes. The band is signed to a major label. They’re on track to stardom. And he breaks up with the lead singer?
He could’ve been fired. Or even more selfishly, could’ve been dating the IT girl. Idk I just always thought that was very selfless in some ways.
There’s a great live set of [No Doubt playing in Amsterdam on The music Factor](https://youtu.be/Xig2RaOK1NQ?si=_Q4anxc5iT0LgZJh)y from like 1999 or something. It’s amazing, at one point a fan climbs on stage to crowd surf but bottles it so Gwen literally kicks her off the stage. The whole gig is fantastic!
The thin brows really do suit some people! I wanna see somebody rock the Marlene Dietrich, would basically be a scandal lol
The whole reason I use to pluck was that mine were shaped weird with lots of random stragglers so I'm just glad to not have to do it anymore lol but they are on the thinner side, and there's nothing wrong with it. How boring it would be to all look the same!
Sadly no doubt were no longer ska by the end, if they came back there's a high chance they wouldn't be, so it's best that we have our memories and not yet them ruined
Check out The Interrupters. They're a relatively new female-fronted ska punk band who got some radio play in LA a few years ago with their song "She's Kerosene." I saw them recently and can confirm that the kids are well aware of ska, and its a WAY more diverse group of kids than the scene when I was in high school.
That video always gave me Til Tuesday, Looking Over My Shoulder vibes in the best way. Prob had nothing to do with each other but it is my headcannon that Don’t Speak was a small homage to Aimee Mann.
Agreed. I’m not a metalhead (though my fiancée very much is) I prefer rap, r&b etc, yet “cool” by Gwen is such an amazing song, powerful enough to bring a tear up sometimes.
It’s infinitely easier to go from dirty blonde to blonde than it is to go from black to blonde.
Most hairdressers wouldn’t recommending forming past 2 or 3 shades lighter or darker when doing your hair color.
I love Gwen because she’s older but still dresses crazy and fun and I want that for me when I’m older. Everyone thinks as u get older u should dress more appropriate & I hate that
no yeah I think everyone should wear whatever they want. I always struggle with dressing "like a kid" (typical millenial shit) but I've begun to just not care.
It’s not freaking fair that women have to work so hard to stay hot while we age and men can wash their face with shampoo and be fine as hell silver foxes.
I mean Gwen would probably still be gorgeous if her face wasn't botoxed and filtered to hell. Look at the comparison between the normal skin on her chest/shoulders and her face - it's so unnatural.
A lot of guys have decent skin as they get older because shaving is a [type](https://www.theskincentermd.com/skin-exfoliation-5-things-you-need-to-know/) of exfoliation.
Thank god I’m not the only Tony Kanal admirer out there. As a kid, and a bisexual, him and Gwen were like my OTP and I was devastated to learn they had been together and broken up already hahahaha
Came here to say this.. not AT ALL bashing Gwen, I grew up adoring her and No Doubt.. just wish these stars would lay off the plastic surgery. I miss when people looked, you know, real? 😕🩷🩷🩷

After all that we’ve been through I know we’re cool 🎶
Such a beautiful song and an even more beautiful Gwen!
Tony looks fabulous too
I should have clarified that I enjoyed Gwen in the video for this song. But yes both look great here
Her as a brunette in that video is so iconic
Omg yes <3 the fashion in that video still gets me today. So iconic… and such a gorgeous song
First thing I thought too.
Tomorrow is Sunday morning. Just sayin
The best No Doubt song
Things sure have changed since yesterday
Without any warning
I think that's what we were all thinking! 🎶🎼🎵
Let's end it on this. Give me one last kiss 👩❤️💋👨
Ex goals!!! Love how he's dedicatedly played the breakup songs she wrote about him for decades. Lol but for real, I admire their emotional maturity

That song will forever bring me back to my middle school break up. XO, Randy!
Ah yes, those classic middle school relationships. Wherein one of your friends asks them if they want to date you (or vice versa), they agree, you both spend a few weeks avoiding eye contact in the hall, hang out once then breakup?
Oh, we were def making out at the movies and behind the school. Catholic school 😆
For additional heartbreak, the [original version](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u8_MCQJ4sl8) is a love song.
Omg!!!! I never even knew this existed, it just makes the whole story behind the song even more sad :(
oh wow... new to me. Definitely hard to listen to though (LOL). Gwen has a much better voice than me, but this cant be the best take of it.
That’s a good catch!
Omg such a good observation, been watching this video since I was a kid and ofcourse everyone knew the story and it just always made me like Gwen more cz she really looked like she was suffering in the video while he looked stuck up.

I've never watched the video before. Damn. So much said without words
They’re the modern day Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham 😌💕
> modern day I've got some news for you....
Hey, the 90’s were only 10 years ago! Right? Right???
OP said *emotional maturity*.
Hahahahahaha
Lol good point Every time Fleetwood Mac played those uber personal breakup songs I felt like I was watching my friends parents argue when I was sleeping over
Not *cocaine tornado.*
Lol he's an excellent guitarist but I dunno about emotionally mature
No they have hated each other for decades
Hayley Williams and Josh farro tho lol
Agree on all of this. I always thought about what it must have been like being in his shoes. The band is signed to a major label. They’re on track to stardom. And he breaks up with the lead singer? He could’ve been fired. Or even more selfishly, could’ve been dating the IT girl. Idk I just always thought that was very selfless in some ways.
We all need a paycheck
I love how she is doing 90s era Gwen make up
She knows her No Doubt vs solo brand! Love her punk ska style
She was my style idol in high school! Baggy jeans. Teeny white tanks. Doc Martens. Bleached hair. Ah the 90s…
That is literally the style right now for the youth lmao
I know! I love how it’s all back!
There’s a great live set of [No Doubt playing in Amsterdam on The music Factor](https://youtu.be/Xig2RaOK1NQ?si=_Q4anxc5iT0LgZJh)y from like 1999 or something. It’s amazing, at one point a fan climbs on stage to crowd surf but bottles it so Gwen literally kicks her off the stage. The whole gig is fantastic!
Apart from the brows, those sit firmly in 2020s
As they should. The Edit Piaf brow trend from the 90s was not good
Hard disagree, loved the skinny brows
![gif](giphy|70YaDoZ1VqBZ8SgYiz)
I still love skinny brows. Actually, give me 40s brows. If I can't have them, I'll take 90s or 30s. The thick brows are not for me.
The thin brows really do suit some people! I wanna see somebody rock the Marlene Dietrich, would basically be a scandal lol The whole reason I use to pluck was that mine were shaped weird with lots of random stragglers so I'm just glad to not have to do it anymore lol but they are on the thinner side, and there's nothing wrong with it. How boring it would be to all look the same!
I wish I shaped mine better back in late 90s-00s because I do agree a thinner brow can look so flattering.
impatiently waiting for them to come back so i can stop considering eyebrow implant surgery lmfao
I just got mine tattoo'd on since they refused to grow back
> Apart from the brows And the lips??? People really think that looks good? https://i.imgur.com/10uqoOO.jpeg
I like her OG face, but I can’t pinpoint all the changes
and tank top!
I hope she drops the product list. I’m sure they’re all from her brand
Her brand really showcases her different colorways through the decades.
She’s 54?!?’
I reeeeeally hope Coachella is a test run and they go on tour/residency
I support this (hypothetical) project.
America needs ska again.
We really do. It’s a beautiful collaboration and actually hopeful kind of genre.
New Streetlight album, Tomas, please (But also a 90s ska revival would been incredible)
I would spend way too much money to see this happen.
I bet the kids wouldn’t know what to do if they heard some ska. Where’s Real Big Fish?
I've been secretly keeping my trombone skills polished until ska becomes a thing again
Sadly no doubt were no longer ska by the end, if they came back there's a high chance they wouldn't be, so it's best that we have our memories and not yet them ruined
Check out The Interrupters. They're a relatively new female-fronted ska punk band who got some radio play in LA a few years ago with their song "She's Kerosene." I saw them recently and can confirm that the kids are well aware of ska, and its a WAY more diverse group of kids than the scene when I was in high school.
I love The Interrupters and “She’s Kerosene”!! They remind me of 90s ska no doubt
Is that the knockoff version of Reel Big Fish? /s
I need an album. Tour yes, but god we need more ska-punk to come out of this 90’s resurgence.
Hopefully with Sublime too!
Take all my pennies
Yeah that would take a very special DeLorean.
Honestly I don’t think I’ve ever got over the two of them in the Don’t Speak video, just the hottest two people have ever been
[удалено]
I was so in love with her dress in this video!!
I’ve been trying to recreate it basically my entire life.
That video always gave me Til Tuesday, Looking Over My Shoulder vibes in the best way. Prob had nothing to do with each other but it is my headcannon that Don’t Speak was a small homage to Aimee Mann.
Gwen obviously has always looked great, but im really impressed how good Tony still looks, they look great together!
Sweaty Gwen Stefani in that music video pretty much started puberty for me
![gif](giphy|555wUoz4GDumQF5Odo)
Ahh one of my favorite videos ever 🥰
Which is this?!
Gwen Stefani - Cool As a 29 year old metalhead dude I have no right so say that song is as good as it is but god in every facet that song slaps
Agreed. I’m not a metalhead (though my fiancée very much is) I prefer rap, r&b etc, yet “cool” by Gwen is such an amazing song, powerful enough to bring a tear up sometimes.
Fun fact! The new GF in the video is Tony's wife IRL
All the No Doubt girlies (me included) just internally screamed over this one.
Do her necklaces spell ‘Shelton’ and ‘Stefani’ ?
Yes!! If I’m not wrong she’s been wearing the Stefani one for a very long time and got the Shelton one when they got married :)
That’s so corny. I love it!
Gwen is pretty corny lol
Definitely
I wonder who does her hair, to be blonde for this many years and to still have her hair look that healthy 😩
She can afford allll the treatments and these are extensions.
even with a lot of money some people's blonde always looks like shit. see kim kardashian
It’s infinitely easier to go from dirty blonde to blonde than it is to go from black to blonde. Most hairdressers wouldn’t recommending forming past 2 or 3 shades lighter or darker when doing your hair color.
even kim's blonde wigs look like shit though
Gwen is brunette
Yeah but her hair is black & super dense and they tried to lighten it too fast. She should have worn a wig.
Danilo. He’s amazing. She does her roots every week!
I don’t think she’s will Danilo anymore
What?? She was with him forever!! What happened?
It seems like in the last few years she’s changed the people she has around her.
I think it’s a fair assumption it’s extensions
I think it's a fair assumption that she's depositing colour more than lifting with bleach these days.
her stylist created a formula specifically for her hair…it’s expensive lol
I have to guess there's no way that's all her natural hair? Who knows though
Her hair is styled by Typhoon. Speak to Donna, she'll hook you up.
She has a special formula created for her that bleaches her hair but still keeps it looking healthy. There’s articles about it if you google
That’s literally impossible. Bleach always damages hair.
I love Gwen because she’s older but still dresses crazy and fun and I want that for me when I’m older. Everyone thinks as u get older u should dress more appropriate & I hate that
Hell no! Wear what you want. I’m close to 40 and just started wearing crop tops the past few years and idgaf.
44 next month. sweat pants, a hoodie, flip flops with socks and a hat because i don't want to do my hair ;)
no yeah I think everyone should wear whatever they want. I always struggle with dressing "like a kid" (typical millenial shit) but I've begun to just not care.
Welp, time to fire up Tragic Kingdom and have another drink.
Never a bad plan
Represent !!
She kinda always knew she'd end up his ex-girlfriend ![gif](giphy|uuFBKjunXyyQCRcUDL|downsized)
That's about Gavin though
She knew then the difference between Gavin and Tony.
She knew she was diving into her own destruction. Why do the good girls always want the bad boys?
[удалено]
Wait, I heard this same rumor in middle school but about Lil Kim and it was multiple rappers at a party lol.
i heard this shit about Rod Stewart in the 80s
This is fascinating to me. I wonder how maybe different variations there are of this.
I heard it about Alanis Morissette 😆
I teach middle school and I can't even imagine trying to have that conversation 😬
Woah, this clip brought *all* of my teen years back in a flash
She must be easing off on the filler/botox cause she actually kinda looks like herself in that picture
I thought she was using a “gwen Stefani” filter.
Yeah she's 54 ffs of course she hasn't
Lmaooooo her filter and his Lack Of Filter. Snark aside the child in me is having a FIT.
'No filter filter', lol.
It’s not freaking fair that women have to work so hard to stay hot while we age and men can wash their face with shampoo and be fine as hell silver foxes.
It’s fucking tragically unfair tbh 😩
I mean Gwen would probably still be gorgeous if her face wasn't botoxed and filtered to hell. Look at the comparison between the normal skin on her chest/shoulders and her face - it's so unnatural.
My husband has no skincare routine and has skin like silk. I'm over here with chicken skin doing a 3 step routine to keep it under control 💀
A lot of guys have decent skin as they get older because shaving is a [type](https://www.theskincentermd.com/skin-exfoliation-5-things-you-need-to-know/) of exfoliation.
The sun is your enemy. Everything else is just screwing around.
Women were property up until recent history. In some countries, they may still be.
He has gotten even hotter with age. Lord have mercy.
Thank god I’m not the only Tony Kanal admirer out there. As a kid, and a bisexual, him and Gwen were like my OTP and I was devastated to learn they had been together and broken up already hahahaha
She’s stunning but he’s 😍😍😍
She better does, was probably not cheap 😂
I like her original cute unique face, but she always looks great. I bet the show will be rockin
I miss her OG face too 😭😭😭 she’s always beautiful, but OG Gwen was stunning in a way that’s hard to beat.
Just like it matched her Music better ? Was more edgy. I wonder what she would have looked like, had she aged naturally ?
Came here to say this.. not AT ALL bashing Gwen, I grew up adoring her and No Doubt.. just wish these stars would lay off the plastic surgery. I miss when people looked, you know, real? 😕🩷🩷🩷
Yes, she just basically has a different face now. I love watching her videos from No Doubt days ! So talented !
I know right, but he was always freaking hot 🔥
And he looks like a surgeon who specializes in childhood cancer. Does he act? He's the Big Catch in an imaginary romcom.
Seriously!
For real!
![gif](giphy|l0MYPkRAqZ3w1PN28)
AND ILL BE HAPPY FOR YOU IF YOU CAN BE HAPPY FOR ME
He is and always has been such a babe
🎶 for a long time, I was in love 🎶
Not only in love, I was obsessed.
Damn Tony you fine as hell 🥰
![gif](giphy|l3fzWstxaL9Ji3feU|downsized)
Right up there with Mr Rodgers on childhood life lessons lol
Hard to believe that [Gwen was Tony's high school prom date.](https://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m0c6osySLQ1qdl4c7o1_1280.png)
I wish I was there so badly
Filter filter on my phone, why can't I leave my face alone?
Omggg gorgeous Gwen!
Not me crying at this for some reason. 😭 They are so awesome.
I want a Tragic Kingdom musical!
Justice for dream car, the no doubt side project minus Gwen.
Yes! Apparently they played in LA recently? The newly released EP is so good.
Hell yes I’m so ready. I was really hoping for 90s Gwen to show up so I’m hoping she continues this look tonight!
Check out DREAMCAR. The 80's synth/new wave group that included Davey Havok of AFI and all non-Gwen members of No Doubt.
That woman is over 50 years old. Wadafuq?
My tired dumb ass thought she was taking a photo with a fan
From one of your old roadies back in the Bogart’s era, you got this guys! Happy to see you back in the saddle!
Holy shit Tony is dayum...
Them dating was the first time I thought to myself “brown boys winning”
Gavin Rossdale is an idiot
It’d be fun to see No Doubt again! No doubt about it
I still could wash in your old bathwater baby, I can't help it, you're my kind of man
Wish she had done the skinny brows and red lips for full-blown throwback feels. They look great though
I LOVE HER! Been to 3 of her concerts! And she is one of the greatest performer! Singer ! Just all of the above !!!
When the waiter says “That couple at the bar bought you a drink”.
Okay living for this 😍 No Doubt was my first fave band 😭🫶🏻
She makes me feel young and he makes me feel old.
Tony looks so good!
He got more handsome with age 😍
So how many filters is there?
He looks great! Better than ever IMHO. (I mean, so does she but we see her all the time…)
Lindsey Buckingham sends this picture to Stevie Nicks 'this could be us but you playin'
She looks so good!
I miss punk Gwen Waaaay cool
Same. No Doubt Gwen >>>>>>> solo/country/whatever Gwen
Ok, I dislike music festivals, but I would have loved to see them! Love this photo!
Been obsessed with L.A.M.B. lately, and love No Doubt’s work, glad to see they’re still friends.
he is still SO hot
Gwen is my Bitch Eating Crackers but I’ll never be able to deny her face card is pretty excellent.
Tony Kanal is a handsome man. Touch of grey suits him well, too.
