Hey there. I'm Ariel Meadow Stallings, a native Seattleite who's written my way up and down the Left Coast. Electrolicious is where I post daily randomata, but I also write for a living. My first book, Offbeat Bride, is in bookstores now.

I read that article. I got the impression that the Asian author has been waiting for YEARS for an opportunity to use the phrase “Pacific Rim Job”.

I agree with the Salon author. Harajuku girls have been “popular” for about 15-20 years now, so it’s no “new” thing, except for mainstream America. Stefani does a great job of “using” and abusing Japan and Japanese girls’ fashion to her advantage. It’s a shame that she has to reinforce sterotypes of Asian women. The sad thing is that a lot of girls are way into Stefani and her memes.
