The Harajuku Girls Article!

Gwen Stefani is one of the hit singers of our age, but she's also a MANIAC!! Gwen has four girls who are of Japanese descent being back-up dancers for her, but the way she 'met' them is just insanity! Also, Gwen uses them as inanimate objects in interviews and no one is aloud to talk to them. These girls are supposed to be from the Harajuku District in Japan, thus calling then Harajuku Girls. If these four girls represent ALL of Harajuku Culture, then are we supposed to 'meet' some of these girls and use them as inanimate objects? Or, do ALL Harajuku girls act like these four individuals? I think that Gwen has taken smething that WAS a culturistic thing in Japan and made it into something we can all look at and think 'Hey, if these four girls are acting like a lamp, then can I get one of these girl to act like a lamp ion MY house?' here in North America. Gwen Stefani has not only brought this culture here and pretty much made Harajuku Cultue something to laugh about, but she has made her four Harajuku Girls a punch line by making them her slaves. What are children supposed to think when they see four japanese girl not saying anything because Gwen has told them not to? They will think that all Japanese girl will only speak when told to, and this is something that should be dealt with!
