It's hard to age on stage, especially for a woman. People are so incredibly cruel. And, as is to be expected, Gwen Stefani has become a bit of a target during her recent performance.
Videos by Wide Open Country
55-year-old Gwen Stefani sung 'Holla Back Girl' for the crowds at KIIS FM Wango Tango pop concert. The track was massive in 2004, and full of the energy of both the singer and the era. But, according to some people who saw it, she perhaps should have left it off the set list.
Of late, Gwen Stefani has certainly left behind the wild times of her past with a much more subdued sound. Her latest single, with Blake Shelton, showcases her slow country side. It's a beautiful number, and a long shot from her wild 2000s days.
But, she wanted to show the crowds that she's still got the energy, so blasted out her classic tune. Haters hate to see a woman full of fun though, and quickly jumped to take them down to her level.
Gwen Stefani Still Has Her Supporters
A number of comments popped out about Stefani looking tired and acting her age. One even posted "The age is starting to show... I wish she made more mature songs." They clearly have absolutely no idea about her recent catalogue of music. If they did, they would hear how her music had changed over the years.
Gwen Stefani was simply having a bit of fun and making a callback to a bygone era of her No Doubt days. However, it rubbed a few people up the wrong way.
But, on the flip side of the all the vitriol came the support for a woman who, at 55, has achieved a great deal, and is still producing great music and looking fabulous on top of it all. "You put on an amazing show as usual! ? You never disappoint! Love you so much queen!" one commenter posted.
