I sometimes feel like Gwen is mooching off of Blake for example she's always using his private jet which I'm sure he pays for and is using him for connections. Like Gwen never went to the pre grammys party before until she went with Blake who had been there before with Miranda. I just feel like she uses his fame and money for perks in LA and OK (helicopter b&b etc.)
LOLOLOL. Thank you so much anon, I needed a good laugh. It’s been a week you know what I’m saying? Anyway, here’s some information to go against your alternative facts:
1. It’s not like Gwen had never flown private before she met Blake. She’s often flown private for gigs, etc. Just because she sometimes would lower herself to fly commercial with the rest of us peasants doesn’t mean it’s because she had to. And anyway have you ever noticed that “Blake’s jet” magically changes interiors sometimes? It’s because he doesn’t have one, he has a service that he uses that works like a time share, and for all any of us knows maybe Gwen bought a share for herself. Or maybe not but if Blake isn’t using his time why waste it? Do you think it bothers him?
2. Gwen has been to the Clive Davis party before... she’s been in mainstream music a lot longer than Blake or his ex, she didn’t suddenly come on the scene in 2015... And last year, she was the invitee, Blake was her plus-one. Her manager was being honored at the event and she is one of his most famous clients, so they wanted her there. (I’m sure they were super stoked to have both of them there though because look at that publicity wow). Gwen has been to all of the major social events in the fashion & entertainment industries. For instance, the VF party is even more prestigious, and btw Blake certainly wouldn’t have been there if Gwen hadn’t gone. But would we call that mooching? No, we’d call it a date.
3. I’m super sure that of all the glamorous opportunities Gwen has had in life, she thought, I need to find me a man who can treat me to the finest things rural Oklahoma has to offer. I’m tired of sailing through the Mediterranean on a private yacht, it’s time to up my game with a bed and breakfast in Middle America. I mean two weeks ago she was staying at the 4 Seasons New York, a 5-star hotel, but I guess that just wasn’t good enough. (I’m not trying to put down Oklahoma btw it’s just what a weird thing to be ‘taking advangtage’ of, especially since it must absolutely thrill Blake that she enjoys it so much.)
4. The point of number 3 is that Gwen has her own money. More than Blake, in fact. But I seriously doubt either of them care about that. In fact it’s a little obvious that they enjoy spoiling each other. And do you think Gwen thinks of it as mooching having Blake live (presumably rent free) in her $35 million mansion? No, because she wants him there. They’re life partners: it’s not her home anymore, it’s theirs. The other day when he was out running errands he was using “her” Yukon. Is that mooching? No, it’s sharing a family car. A helicopter is no different except that she probably never uses it without him.
5. I don’t know what connections you think Blake has in LA that Gwen wouldn’t have had on her own but...no. Actually Blake has gotten quite a bit of attention from Apple Music, and while some of it is because he is a huge star and one maybe 3-5 country people that non-country people care about, I have wondered if part of it was because the President of Apple Music, Jimmy Iovine, thinks of Gwen as a daughter.
But the difference is that instead of thinking “ew why is Blake mooching off of Gwen’s connections” I think, Oh my God it’s so adorable how they really have merged lives, their people are all interconnected and they have really built a life together, blending elements from both of their worlds. So maybe that’s why I laughed so hard at your concerns, (well aside from the idea of a woman worth $100million mooching off anyone) is that their interconnectedness and whats-mine-is-yours attitude is one of my favorite things about them.
