They are.

Just seen them on This Morning and several reasons really for why they are A Bag of Arse:

  1. They have a career spanning twenty years apparently. How have they eked out a 20 year career out of shit cold-ska music?!
  1. Gwen Stefani. She looks about 70, like one of those old women you see in Kensington still bleaching their hair/sporting the red lips that makes the mouth look like a dog's fanny. And we all know you've got flat abs, Gwen, so do feel free to put them away, bab.
  1. All the men in the band look like uncles from down the pub who've just got a job in a local band, so they've decided to jazz themselves up a bit with a faux-hawk/bleached barnet.
  1. They are shit.

The end.

This shit is bananas.

And Gwen Steffani looks ill. I want to feed her up.

LineRunner · 10/10/2012 14:06

God, was that No Doubt? I thought it was something off a shit talent show.

LineRunner · 10/10/2012 14:07

It made me want the Thompson Twins back. As least the hat woman kept her ribs to herself.

cheekydevil · 10/10/2012 14:08

Bups is Black Cuntray not Brummay ay er?

ScaryBOOAlot · 10/10/2012 14:09

Don't speak - I know what you're saying. So, please, stop explaining.

KatieScarlett2833 · 10/10/2012 14:10

Yazoo, here linerunner

Anyone seen Alison Moyet recently? She looks great. Although I secretly used to love her as she was well 'ard.

catgirl1976 · 10/10/2012 14:12

She's just a girl Bups

Don't you think she knows exactly where she stands?

airedailleurs · 10/10/2012 14:12

but what about Don't Speak, OP? not a whisper of ska, cod or otherwise there. Just a beautiful, sad and passionate song!

ScooseIsLooseInTheHauntedHoose · 10/10/2012 14:12

They are a pile of shite and totally over rated!

Mandy2003 · 10/10/2012 14:13
. Bit of an untidy performance going on there. And what's with that giant drum, played by the guitarist Hmm] - just makes the band look short staffed Grin

"Uncles from the pub" LOL!!

LineRunner · 10/10/2012 14:13

Alson Moyet could probably have taken me in a fight.

akaemmafrost · 10/10/2012 14:14

Oh well maybe he does see her although I am sure I read an interview with Daisy herself where she said he didn't and she wasn't actually that bothered. Nice guy to try and prevent the DNA though Hmm.

LadyClariceCannockMonty · 10/10/2012 14:14

I've never been able to work out what No Doubt are for.

And I hate her voice. Creamy and curdled and thick. Yuck.

hiviolet · 10/10/2012 14:15

Gwen's abs are veh impressive but when I saw her on Jonathan Ross the other week her face looked odd. Has she had "work" done?

LineRunner · 10/10/2012 14:16

Yes her face looks like a skull with make up on.

OwlLady · 10/10/2012 14:17

i don't understand why she is so [photographed and they are so famous either

TheFlumpsHaveEyes · 10/10/2012 14:22

I like them actually, so YABU. Well I used to like them anyway - I still have Tragic Kingdom on my Ipod Smile.

And I always thought Gwen was really pretty and stylish - haven't seen her lately though so maybe she's slipped off the hook....

TheLazyGirl · 10/10/2012 14:23

Oh. I kind of like Spiderwebs. It was my answer phone message on my mobile aged 18....
DD (5) likes Hollaback Girl (non swearing version).

BupcakesAndHaunting · 10/10/2012 14:28

cheekydevil Arrrrrrr.

LOL at skull with make-up on.

I urge you to look at her on TM from today. The hair has made my brain do a cry.

And also LOL at them peforming at the "Teen Choice" awards... I bet all the teens were thinking "Who the hell are these pensioners? Where is Bieber?"

Absy -Zuma is named after a californian beach!

I sort of liked NA back in the "don't speak" days, but that is showing my age...

LadyClariceCannockMonty · 10/10/2012 14:44

I've got Don't fucking Speak going round my head now.

Thanks a bunch, Buppers.

catgirl1976 · 10/10/2012 14:49

I thought he was named after the bubble-bursting turtle arcarde game Blush

Absy · 10/10/2012 15:21

Thanks for clarifying that. I still don't think she's innocent - I remember they named him around the time of President Zuma's rape trial in South Africa, so they must have had some minor level of awareness that their child's name would be associated with a rapist who thinks he won't get AIDS because he had a shower

(yes, it is rather tragic that I remember when she had her child. I DO need to get out more)

Wheresmypopcorn · 10/10/2012 18:14

Thanks Absy - I thought it was totally stupid to name their child that. Like most stars who reach a certain level of fame, the devotion has got out of proportion. Still, she landed up with a husband like that. First, a child she knew nothing about. Then, his whole relationship with Marilyn which he lied about for ages. Can't wait to see what else he has got up his sleeve. Did not like the way she sulked during the Wimbledon Men's Final when Gavin Rossdale was invited to sit in the box by Roger Federer. She looked pissy.
