Gwen Stefani is the beautiful lead singer for No Doubt and has had a successful solo career.

We’ve all had that moment when we sense that things are about to change. For Gwen Stefani that epiphany occurred as a high school senior in Orange County.

‘I remember being this 17 year-old girl, in love and really excited about my future with the boy that I thought was going to be my husband and we’d have babies and that, ‘she pauses, ‘was my passion. Then I learned that I could write songs and that is when my life changed. I went from being this really passive girl to ‘Oh my God.



This makes me feel so powerful when I write these words.’ It was such a turning point to find that I had a talent and I had something to contribute, somewhere.”

Gwen Stefani was married at a London church for her September 14th 2002 nuptials to Gavin Rossdale, but arrived an hour late.

“I’m just an Orange County girl from a loving family making music with my friends. It’s not really that big of a deal. Writing songs is super intimate. It’s a bit like getting naked.”

“I’ve never considered myself a great singer. To be honest, it’s kind of nasally and piercing and I have no range.”
