Fresh from the little red phone which rings whenever I get a tip:
This is probably the stupidest ‘tip’ I’ve ever sent to a blog, but…If you look at the cover of Gwen Stefani’s latest album, and sort of squint your eyes, doesn’t it look just like a picture of Ganesha’s head? Am I nuts, or do others see this too?
Hmmm. How many other blogs you tippin’? How long has THAT been going on? 😉 Anyway, I’ve squinted enough that I now need creme de la mer eye balm, but I still don’t see it. Don’t be surprised though– I could NEVER see the “hidden” pictures in those magic-eye-annoying posters, either.
And the rest of you lot? Is our “anon” nuts or do you see the face of a beloved deity, too?
All I see are a couple of Harajuku girls. Then again I see magic pictures even where there are none.
all is see is gwen stefani’s crotch — thankfully covered.
“all is see is gwen stefani’s crotch — thankfully covered.“
Methinks that’s a funny way to spell unfortunately.
I see it I see it … halleluiah About as much as I see Mark Wahlberg (Marky Mark) in the cloud outside my window.
nope… no dice. dont see it.
but have you seen Mallrats? you know how that one guy is trying to see the ship in the magic eye picture and he’s been standing there for a week or something?
i’m that guy.
Now if it had some fridge-fungus growing on it, THEN, I’d believe it.
It just looks like an unrecognizable blob of pain. I don’t even see Gwen Stefani let alone a Hindu deity.
Sadly, I see it. I never see these things, either and I’m a Xian desi. maybe St. Ganesh of Mumbai is intervening for me. Or maybe my longtime crush on (ew) Gwen is overtaking me. Yes, I feel self-hatred for having a crush on her. Anyway, it’s there. Maybe Gwen Stefani will remove an obstacle in your life.
wait a pire-picking second…i think i know what anon is referring to…if you imagine that the harajuku tresses are each an eye and that gwen’s leg is a trunk…eh, what do i know. i’d think “elephant” before “ganesha”. since we’re on this topic, is ganipati the same as ganesh? i learned the former…
is ganipati the same as ganesh? Yes
I think Anon was, like, tripping on an acid tab or something?
Is it weird that I totally see it to the upper right of her head? The eye, the face, the trunk? I think I’m still jetlagged.
That’s someone’s bhakti working overtime. 🙂
aneshg sees it. when he is not looking directly at the picture.
The right leg gives the impression of the trunk, and the face and upper body (in light color) kind of makes the face with similar light color on both sides giving the impression of large ears.
so whoever gave the tip was not smoking crack.
Sonia, you are flying high 🙂 I’ll have a puff of some of that shit girl. And get grooooooooovy.
Yes! Yes! Validation! I was right! So I guess I don’t have to remain ‘anon’ anymore. 🙂
Thank you. Indeed, I am truly a bhakta of worthless, timewasting websurfing (i.e., a graduate student).
That ain’t no bhakti dude, that’s barbiturates 🙂
This sounds similar to all those stories about hidden images in a Coke ad and Disney’s “Little Mermaid” poster…
thanks, kush 🙂
Hmm, I can’t figure out how to get the pic to show up here. You can view the Ganesha outlined at: http://anjana.homeip.net/Pics/Other/LJ/Fun-stuff/Ganesha-in-Gwen-Stefani.jpg
Just goes to prove that aesthetics are deeply culturally rooted.
yes, mutineers, it is true
her right leg is the trunk her right hand extended is Ganesha’s one tusk; you can’t see gwen’s arm one of the harajuku girls looks a bit like an ear it even looks like he’s sitting on a throne, as usual and, of course, the mouse atop his throne is his divine vehicle that represents wisdom, talent, and intelligence
hmm . even after seeing the outline, i still can’t see it in the original picture. 🙁
more like amen that it’s covered, could rightly use a body bag.
It’s probably some sort of alice in wonderland/queen of hearts thing, her first video was heavy with that stuff
Gwen fell off

Thanks, SIG, looking at your outline it seems plausible that a Ganesha head could have been used early on in the photoshopping process and left its traces in the overall structure of the picture.
(not for any reason other than to add complexity of structure to the final product)
Talking about tips…
I’ve sent a bunch of tips to SM in the last few months, but apart from one to which Abhi responded, I’ve not heard anything. Is this normal? Or is it because of my, ah, proclivities and ideology that my tips are not considered?
This was the latest tip I sent… (One plaintiff, Jyoti Ruta, alleged that she was pressured by a supervisor and a colleague to leave a dinner celebrating the closing of a major deal, so that male employees and clients could go to a strip club)

Conspiracy theory 🙂
and I am known to see the 3D images in the stereograms (magic eye) images very easily.
Looking at outline SIG points to, I really think someone is using their imagination a lot 🙂
Quick, let’s sell it on eBay!
Moornam, We have updtaed our tip policy:
Basically only two bloggers, myself and Anna see incoming tips. Even if a topic is really interesting we just don’t have the time to post on everything. We pick and choose what interests us, what we have something to say about, or simply what we have time for. It is no reflection on the quality of the tip or the person who sends in the tip.
Abhi,
Thx for the clarification.
