Why Is Gwen Crying?
We actually sorta like what we're hearing of Sweet Escape ('cause the rest of the album features approximately NO yodeling), but holy shit does it have nothing on our love for her promo shots.

Why so sad, Stefani? Care to venture a guess? Well if ya do, we've got a free copy of Sweet Escape for the best answer. We'll even have a box of Kleenex® sent to her in your name! And remember, it's a contest, so make it yer answers good. Let's hear 'em! We'll pick a winner Friday 11/17 at 6PM EST (that's tomorrow!). The album will ship to the lucky Harajuku Lover on 12/5.
UPDATE: Someone took away her lollipop?! (Thanks A IV.)
