How Gwen Stefani and Courtney Love's Beef Birthed "Hollaback Girl"

[@EvolianTiger]

Looking down a girl for being a cheerleader was Courtney's “not like other girls”︎︎︎︎︎︎ moment. The she (wrongfully) attributed Gwen's success to the men in her life explains why she slept with them, she needed a boost for her lacking career and only being recognizable through her own dead ex. Typical pick me at the end of the day and Gwen proved her wrong.

[@casswashwash1070]

I didn’t mind her saying gwen was a cheerleader and she wasn’t. She could’ve meant it as shes a rebel rocker chick and Gwen is more polished/popular. But then she kept digging so clearly she was being hateful. Also He’s Kurt Cobain not Courtney’s dead ex 😐

@@Model_Roe yep she was definitely jealous. Gwen was the breakout star of the 90s girl bands. Explains why she slept with Gavin, she wanted to be Gwen. I find women who are jealous of another try to steal their men so they can try to take them down a notch or feel closer to being them.

[@briannalee1998]

The fact that people still look down on Cheerleaders when they cheer for basketball and football season, practice eight hours a day, pull difficult and dangerous stunts, tumbling, and make it all look easy. It's also the sport where girls statistically get the most injuries, so I find it a bit misogynistic that people (especially those like Courtney) still look down on cheerleading even though it's changed a lot since its inception. Gwen is like a cheerleader; hardworking, bubbly, and creative, just like the song! Courtney Love tried to insult her, but accidentally gave her a compliment. I'm just glad we got this iconic song out of it!

[@molly863]

It’s so dumb. The majority of the cheerleaders at my school were also involved in school clubs that required high grades to join. Unless the coaches encourage poor ethics towards school, I think a lot of the time student athletes are very good students who contribute a lot to their schools. It’s just an easy to reach for stereotype to say the jocks and cheerleaders are the worthless pretty people or just bullies or whatever. All people are all kinds of things, and being a cheerleader doesn’t take away someone’s value and shouldn’t be an insult.

I don’t think these young people even understand what she was saying. Gwen is the girl who subscribes to the system and tries to thrive in it, and she is. Courtney is the girl who cuts class, smokes cigarettes out back, and probably gets expelled. I.e., she is more transgressive, more anti-social in behaviour. Only if Gwen clings to an idea of herself as NOT the pretty, popular figure would that in any way bother her. And look what she did anyways: worked with Pharrell, went with the prevailing pop sounds of that time, made a great record… now she is a judge on a major network prime time talent show. She is mainstream. 🤷🏼‍♂️

Finally a comment that makes sense! Maybe because I'm old, and watched both of their successes play out in real time, and how quickly people forget, that there were a lot of disenchanted No Doubt fans, when Gwen went solo and started being her own brand, and wasn't "Just a Girl" but now was THAT girl; which is apparently what she wanted all along.

Seventeen magazine interview, how ironic

[@IsomerMashups]

Maybe I'm missing context, but it doesn't sound like that cheerleader comment was meant as an insult.

[@niccole3542]

In conclusion,Gwen won.

[@Lizzie-ve7kt]

It’s funny because I never would’ve heard of Gavin if it weren’t for Gwen and I never would’ve heard of Courtney if it weren’t for Kurt.

[@shannoncamara9296]

But how was bananas brought into this?

[@67kurtcobainfan27]

Courtney Love is 1 controversial lady, baby, woman, girl, gal, babe, female, goddess, wife, mother, daughter, friend, lover, rocker, feminist, perfectionist, etc. Sounds more like little miss world's American grunge sweetheart. 🤭 🤭 🤭 🤭

WOW IT WOULD BE A DIRECT QUOTE FROM NAOMI CAMPBELL

[@hamletvillilo5604]

I've liked this song since i was 6 years old...and i didn't know it was a diss track lol

[@QueenZsWorld]

sounds like Courtney is a fan... how would you know so much about Gwen's career behind the scenes? so glad she took the high road. and I shouldn't be surprised that Hollar Back Girl was inspired by a Black woman, Naomi Campbell. Hope she's collecting her cheques...

[@tysonb3568]

Naomi behind many a Legendary inspo!

[@jaxtelleramacengkazanamazs9097]

the best (the only) 2 things Courtney love ever made for the music industry, 1-You know you're right 2-Hollaback Girl

[@michellebelledejour]

Gwen use to make clothes in high school and was into fashion. So I don’t know what Courtney was talking about 🙄 Courtney always had a bad habit of putting her foot in her mouth. Gwen came out winning and she didn’t even have try 💯😎

[@MrMikeInverse]

Man, Gwen is so underrated. the things she has done with No Doubt and by her solo career. Who else has done this? since early 90's up until to this day.

[@ibcheel9021]

They both dated Gavin Rossdale, oh wait Gwen married him though...
