Gwen Stefani's second son, 17-year-old Zuma Rossdale, has undergone a striking style metamorphosis that's setting the internet alight. The teenager appears to be channelling his stepfather, country music superstar Blake Shelton, with a bold new aesthetic.
A Striking New Look
In a series of social media posts that have since gone viral, Zuma showcases a dramatic transformation. Gone is the California cool style one might expect from the son of music royalty. Instead, he's embraced a full-blown country persona, complete with a meticulously styled mullet haircut that would make any Nashville native proud.
Following in Musical Footsteps
The transformation isn't merely superficial. Zuma has been flexing his musical muscles too, sharing clips of himself crooning country tunes. His vocal performances demonstrate a surprising talent that suggests he may be following in the footsteps of both his biological father, Bush frontman Gavin Rossdale, and his stepfather Blake.
Blake Shelton's Influence
The resemblance to Blake Shelton is uncanny. From the distinctive hairstyle to the laid-back country vibe, Zuma's new image appears to be a heartfelt tribute to the man who has been a significant paternal figure in his life since Gwen Stefani's relationship with the country singer began in 2015.
Fan Reactions
Social media has erupted with reactions to Zuma's new look. Fans have flooded comment sections with messages of support and amusement, with many noting the strong Shelton influence. Comments range from "He's becoming mini Blake!" to praises for his musical talents and unique style choices.
This style evolution marks another chapter in the fascinating public journey of celebrity children finding their own identity while navigating the immense shadows cast by their famous parents.
