HP @ CES - Gwen Stefani's digital camera
Hit the floor here at CES again today and of course we had to find that digital camera Gwen Stefani designed/styled for HP. The camera's basically just a tricked out version of their 4.1 megapixel HP Photosmart R607 (i.e. they slapped a skin on it) and according to Gwen, is dedicated to the hyper-trendy girls of Harajuku (which is why they put the words "Harajuku Lovers" on the front, get it?).

gwen stefani sucks, and she needs to get off of these girls nuts bad. I've read in 3 different places now how she's blabbing about how great they are. sue me, I read free rolling stone on the toilet.
OOH, "UNIQUE" FASHION CULTURE - IN JAPAN!!
hahaha the 80s hahaha

wow... crazy japanese harajuku fashion?? welcome to 15 years ago.
G @ Dec 19th 2005 12:09AM
I'm glad I have little girls to tell me what to like.
Christie @ Dec 19th 2005 12:09AM
Hey Colin,
I didn't know you could read Rolling Stone for music! Last I checked they had feature stories on the Olsen Twins and the cast of Smallville!

I think the camera is hot!!! Gadgets are in need of a major make over. I just wish it wasn't so Gwen Stefani fadish. Maybe they should have artist designed gadgets, like a Keith Haring iMac or a Warhol iPod photo with his entire collection. But only of artist that are alive not some rip off of their collection.

garbage in>>garbage out
dawggpie @ Dec 19th 2005 12:09AM
like that MS S+ark mouse? that did real well haha. These trend molded, designer gadgets are the most asinine thing ever. Come on HP... Is that camera for Japan only? Guess that makes more sense.
L.M. @ Dec 19th 2005 12:09AM
this is just an attemp to follow the U2 iPod trend.
Dave @ Dec 19th 2005 12:09AM
Colin is right, who needs Gwen stefani's camera anyway, she's trash.
Callum @ Dec 19th 2005 12:09AM
I want to see Bono's ideas- y'know the 3MP Canon shaped like a crucifix?
dfd @ Dec 19th 2005 12:09AM
That Bono Canon camera would be great if it also cured hunger, disease, and poverty whenever you took a picture.
Amy @ Dec 19th 2005 12:09AM
Jealous Haters..
Chris Arch @ Dec 19th 2005 12:09AM
To Colin and Dave- Maybe instead of wasting your life making comments about how horrible Gwen Stefani, maybe you should do something just a tad more productive cause the last time I checked, Gwen is a millionaire and is probably going to make even more money off this camera and it doesnt look like I can say as much about you two. So quit hatin and instigatin.
P.S. Lol i totally did this for you Christina =)
Mike @ Dec 19th 2005 12:09AM
Who the hell is Gwen Stefani? Should I care?
P. Diddy @ Dec 19th 2005 12:09AM
If you were cool and watch MTV you might know. To all you clueless haters, the MTV generation will be known to have the largest discretionary income ever for consumer electronics, while shaping and influencing the industry for generations to come like no other. And HP's got them just where they want them. Props to HP and Gwen 'cause they're hella cool.
Mike @ Dec 19th 2005 12:09AM
Yawn... The MTV generation, a generation of mass consumers and nothing more.
Kim @ Dec 19th 2005 12:09AM
Yep, just jealous haters as stated before... I will have you know that Gwen Stefani has been around for a very long time (17 years and counting). It just goes to show that you don't know as much as you THINK you do.
*annie* @ Dec 19th 2005 12:09AM
*this camera is SUPER FREAKIN RAD!*

ME @ Dec 19th 2005 12:09AM
Gwen Stefani is the BOMB!
She has made herself what she is and she deserves to do whatever the heck she wants...Even if that includes Harajuku girls and 80's music/clothing.
She does things for herself NOT for the haters. How would you like someone walking behind you saying how crappy you are?
I doubt you'd like it. So instead of commenting on how much she sucks...Try to make yourself not suck so much.
I LOVE THE CAMERA and I'll prob buy it!
GWEN STEFANI RULES THE WORLD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Mike @ Dec 19th 2005 12:09AM
Kim,
It's not a question of jealousy or hating. It's the arrogance of the previous poster that I commented on. I don't need a lecture on the MTV generation's greatness (rolleyes).
[sarcasm on]
Woohoo! Deciding on which color the iPod will be... . Now that's bragging rights! What a legacy! It ranks right up there with storming beaches in a hail of gunfire to fight tyranny and oppresion.
[sarcasm off]
Amy @ Dec 19th 2005 12:09AM
I think it's cool and I love Gwen Stefani. I've loved her for almost 10 years now and I think everything she does is amazing. There's nothing wrong with wanting a camera or an ipod that happens to look cute while it's doing it's job. Lighten up and have a little fun in life. Life's too short .
XOXO
Mike @ Dec 19th 2005 12:09AM
Amy,
Couldn't agree with you more. However, the ADD morons who replied to my post accused me of hating Gwen when all I asked was who she was and should I care.
You want a camera that looks like that; go for it! Variety is the spice of life!
Peace.

zac @ Dec 19th 2005 12:09AM
imho, no real musician would ever sell out like this. that goes for u2 also.
and really i don't have a problem with colorful, art inspired camera designs or anything but i do have a problem with throwing celebrity names around for profit. but if you are into buying what "they" are sellin' then good for you i guess.
me! @ Dec 19th 2005 12:09AM
hey, gwen stefani and no doubt ROCK.
i love this camera!!! its v.v.v.v.v.v cool!

Lils @ Dec 19th 2005 12:09AM
GWEN STEFANI IS HELLA COOL! All you haters are full of shit, while she's full of talent and money. So she was smart enough to make something out of it- Don't hate the player hate the game!

I WANT TO GET MADDAM STEFFINE SPORE ADDRESS
paula @ Dec 19th 2005 12:09AM
I think this camera is sooo cool. I am a huge Gwen Stefani fan and a big fan of her clothing and purse line. I do not think she is selling out, it would be an honor to have my design and name on something like this. Gwen is a genius whose creativity needs to be available for purchase. I love all of my L.A.M.B. clothes and purses, I can't wait to buy more.
Abby-California School Girl @ Dec 19th 2005 12:09AM
OMFG!!! me and my friend ali are gwen lovers. she is the most awsome person ever! she is sooo my role model.! not only that but i am majoring in photography at RISD (Rhode Island School of Design) Okay, actually im planing to. im still in middle school but hey...Anyway, Gwen inspires me and my frineds to defy the school uniform as much as possible. ha ha ha. je suis si bon pour prendre des photos, et modeste aussi. j'aime ?lement le fran?s. il bascule mon monde. inoltre amo l'italiano. quando mi sviluppo in su, come ho detto prima, sto andando andare a RISD per fotographia, e probabilmente sia un allievo di scambio in Italia o in Francia.
No Doubt's Lover @ Dec 19th 2005 12:09AM

Mekare @ Dec 19th 2005 12:09AM
No one can blame Gwen for loving the awesome fashions from Japan. I think it's cool how she's inspired by them! This camera is really cute, unlike all the other boring silver and black ones. Definitely a good look to break the ice in the camera world.
peace @ Dec 19th 2005 12:09AM
love music angel baby- that's what it's all about! rock on gwen!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Chanthell @ Dec 19th 2005 12:09AM
WHERE DO YOU GET IT?!?!?!?!?!?!?
corgibelle @ Dec 19th 2005 12:09AM
I love the camera and I will buy one as soon as I find out where to buy it. I have another digi camera so this is just an extra because I love Gwen Stefani, her talent , her new style. I love her L.A.M.B. cd. Everyone has their own taste but to say that Stefani is trash is just that......trash.
jd @ Dec 19th 2005 12:09AM
You mass consumer moronic slave probably don't know a shit about marketing; so u really believe gwen stefani is so cool that she actually designed this digital camera skin? Wake up, some hp advertising guy just phone her, offered her a few thousand/hundred grands so that he could put her name/style on, to boost its sales to u stupid teeny-bopper.
Corgibel @ Dec 19th 2005 12:09AM
We are all slaves to one thing or another, no? What interests me about your comment is the word "teeny-bopper" and how hard it made me laugh. Thank you! Kudos to the rich and talented Ms. Stefani.
lark @ Dec 19th 2005 12:09AM
im so buying one of these cameras.. i might even buy like four. gwen stefanis is hotshit, she always has been and she always will be. its so funny how people can waste thier time on hating people. jealousy, thats all that is! gwen kicks ass.

tuck @ Dec 19th 2005 12:09AM
gwen is all show and no substance. her lyrics are inane, her voice is annoying, and as far as clothes go she's been bitin the japan style for a minute. so, now that she has a solo album out and needs the support of a trendy entourage, she can et away with hiring them to follow her around like pets? c'mon. i can give people respect when it's due. yes, she has money and fame, but should that always demand respect? do you respect hitler? bush? pauly shore? the moment i lost any shred of respect i might have had for stefani was when she got up to accept a grammy and promptly thanked her stylist. no family, band members, or fans, her stylist. but i guess she was speaking the truth, because she wouldn't be anything without one. and if you actually believe that she designed any of that stuff you deserve to be parted from your money. buy, buy, buy, little monkeys...
Claudeen @ Dec 19th 2005 12:09AM
Even though I already have 2 very nice cameras I'm s a sucker for GWEN!!! I will be buying into the whole Gwennine Cam; So call me an MTV generation with all kinds of dough, and a trendoid; but I want it! I WANT it!! I WANT IT!!!
That is all.

Hey guys! I think Gwen Stefani rocks, she is the best out there!! She is the perfect role model for so many girls and I am so happy that HP invented this camera and let GWEN design it. They know what Awesome stuff is!! For all the people that are dissing GWEN, they all need to back the hell up and get a life. Just because your lives are so pathetic, you don't have to hate! NO DOUBT AND GWEN ARE THE BEST< SO DON'T SETTLE FOR LESS!!
I CAN'T WAIT TO GET ONE OF THESE AWESOME CAMERAS! whoo hoo!!!!
It's totally hella good!
LOVE* ANGEL* MUSIC* BABY!*
Masao @ Dec 19th 2005 12:09AM
I am a Japanese man who knew about the camera on the CBS video clip. I sometimes go to Harajuku but I have never seen things like this. I would like to introduce this camera to Japnese using my blog. Please allow me to use the photo above.
natalie @ Dec 19th 2005 12:09AM
dont hate. the camera is cute! im getting 3. one for me and 2 for gifts
Brid @ Dec 19th 2005 12:09AM
Why does she have to say the perfect thing every single time? Do you think you would as well? Did it ever occur to you that she's a normal person with faults and makes *gasp* MISTAKES? Obviously not. You have no idea what it would be like to have all the opportunities she's had or her power, so please just quit making judgements on the few things you do see and probably misconstrue.
I've seen her in real life, she is a REALLY and truly down to earth, normal person. Best described as "an ordinary girl who's done extraordinary things." As for "selling out" which is a extremely lame and senseless term, she has NEVER done anything that she's not had fun with or cared about. Everything has been a reflection of herself, whether you like it or not, and it's her life, why should she live by your standards or what you like?
The camera's hot, she's obviously very into Harajuku...I have to say I'm not really digging it but it's her thing, it's her life.
And PS, her lyrics are not inane (excluding the dance side project LAMB, which she herself has described as 'good fluff' =)) but if you listen to the music or read the lyrics from Return of Saturn, you'll be proven wrong.
And someone tell me who ISN'T a mass consumner? Quit sounding so high and mighty and acting like you don't go to a store and buy items.
*off soapbox*
DuRTy @ Dec 19th 2005 12:09AM
They are just hating because they cant afford it. Gwen rocks, she has her own bag line, LAMB, however, Louis Vuitton is better. LOL.
HAVE FUN
