Not defending Stefani here, because that was a stupid thing to say, but I am legitimately curious where the line is between being greatly influenced by a culture and embracing it and appropriation.
for me its the intent, and usually that intent is to make money.

when a fashion company randomly decides to start a whole geisha line and just google what a geisha looks like and starts selling 1000 handbags with japanese whatever characters, that's appropriation

a white dude on vacation in Japan putting on a yukata and taking pics is not appropiation.
