Another Celeb Smacked in the Face

Little Kingston James McGregor Rossdale threw a little tantrum yesterday afternoon -- pulling at Gwen Stefani's hair and even slapping at her gorgeous mug. Not the face, King, not the face!


TMZ caught Gwen and baby outside their NYC hotel, where the adorable tot was happy to run around on the sidewalk and converse with an enormous passing dog. When Gwen scooped him up to take him to an SUV, baby was not havin' it! Nobody puts baby in an SUV!

16. 12. Spoiled brat. My two year old doesn't act like that--he knows better. Also, he doesn't pet dogs like that. This child needs to be shown how to be gentle with animals. Read a parenting book, Gwen--it will do you some good.

17. wow I can't believe what some of you have said. Kingston is a little boy throwing, in my experience a very small tantrum. My daughter is 18 months and can really throw a fit! And as for some of you saying beat him, well thats just horrible! No one should ever beat there child! And his behavior in no way warrants a spanking, a stern no is all he needs and it appeared Gwen took care of this situation as she put him in the car.

18. This is so typical of a toddler, I have had my own toddler wack me in the face in a crowded area with the ooh's and aww's. They grow out of it if you don't accept it. I can only imagine how I would feel if it was on tmz when my toddler was throwing a royal tantrum.

19. Perfectly normal toddler!! I have a 2 year old who loves to run free like Kingston was doing, then gets very upset if she has to be put in her carseat. She went through a brief phrase of hitting when she was upset, but quickly learned it wasn't acceptable to hit. But I would have done EXACTLY what Gwen did, which was not make a scene but proceed to put him in the car and address it privately. Kingston is a cutie and I'm thrilled to see he is a normal toddler, he always looked so perfect!

20. My kiddo acts like that too. It is part of the exploring age. I really like how she is involved and letting him explore. It looks normal to me being a mom of an 18 month old. I respect that she is involved and kept her cool. B/C you know everyone who watches this will judge her. But I bet every mom out there would have some very ---- footage out there if there were cameras around in your day to day life enteracting with a little explorer.

22. The kid must have heard her last album or saw the video where the asian chicks are made to look hideous in order to make the bleach bomber look somewhat decent looking.

23. That is very typical behavior for his age. If she would have up and smacked him everyone would have tore her a new one. I think she handled it with the grace that is Gwen. I have rocked out to her when I was pregnant with my son who is now ten. She appears to be a fantastic and cool headed mom. She is a success in every aspect of her life and will absolutely raise grounded, loving children.

24. if she doesnt spank him, she spoiling him and being a bad mom. If she DOES spank him, she is beating her child and is a bad mom. People are going to judge and make up their mind no matter what she does here.

Also, #12 - my 2 year old knows better, too, but it doesnt mean he wont try. HE'S 2. Its in his contract to act like that.

25. Loli #9 your an idiot. All toddlers go through a tantrum phase. It's how you handle it, she had tmz following her. What would you do with camera's on you. First you can't put the kid in time-out on the sidewalk and Gwen is no ghetto momma so she is not going to give him a good ole ghetto spanking/back hand. A toddler is going to test you, I'm sure Gwen is a wonderful mother.

26. is that the nanny w/ them? I'm not sure but her and Gwen seem to be too fussy over kingston. No wonder he just wants to run.

27. I agree with you number 15, Every child throws a temper tantrum and just because (barrty kids turn into bratty adults) your child is the epitome of perfection (I'm sure) doesn't mean every other kid is. My son has done, and yes he does get disciplined. But children are children and at that young of an age, they aren't sure how else to take out their frustrations. You can always teach them, but that comes in due time and some patience. And I'm sure she disciplined her sons butt after that. I know I have when my son has done it. But these days you can't even spank your kids CLOTHED but without getting reported for child abuse. Some people have nothing better to do.

28. Who cares?? Its pretty creepy to have someone there filming your kid - paps or not.

29. Anyone who finds this at all noteworthy has spent little to no time with a normal two-year-old boy. I felt like I could read her mind: let him walk around on his own, but mind the curb; anticipate that he'll want to pet the doggy, but read the faces of the dog-walkers to see if that's a good idea, etc., etc.

Raising kids is messy. They look like great parents to me.

30. I remember those days when my spoiled boy would be naughty! I miss those days.
