Stylist Andrea Lieberman introduced her to haute couture clothing, which led to Stefani launching a fashion line named L.
Fashion dolls". The dolls are inspired by the various fashion that Stefani and the Harajuku Girls wore while touring for the album. In late summer , Stefani launched a perfume, L, as a part of her L. The perfume has high notes of sweet pea and rose. In , Stefani announced the production of an animated series about her and the Harajuku Girls.
We both were thrilled with the outcome and enjoyed the process. I have nothing but respect for her and look forward to working with her on more projects in the future.
Stefani began wearing a bindi in the mids after attending several family gatherings for Tony Kanal, who is of Indian heritage. In , Stefani modified her image, inspired by that of Michelle Pfeiffer's character Elvira Hancock in the film Scarface. She later stated that she had been on a diet since the sixth grade to fit in size 4 clothing, commenting, "It's an ongoing battle and it's a nightmare.
But I like clothes too much, and I always wanted to wear the outfits I would make. Stefani's clothing also took influence from Japanese fashion, in a style described as a combination between Christian Dior and Japan.
They were also featured in, and the namesake for, Stefani's Harajuku Lovers Tour. The series employs a panel of four coaches who critique the artists' performances and guide their teams of selected artists through the remainder of the season. They also compete to ensure that their act wins the competition, thus making them the winning coach.
Much like Madonna before her, Stefani wowed fans with her distinctive personal style: Her look borrowed from many different scenes and cultures, from punk-style bondage pants to a forehead decoration known as a bindi traditionally worn by some Indian women.
Known for her deeply personal lyrics, Stefani found a lot of material in her failed relationship with Kanal. It is said to be the inspiration for the popular ballad, "Don't Speak," another hit off Tragic Kingdom. The group's follow-up album, Return of Saturn , fared well and again featured some very personal lyrics by Stefani. In the song "Ex-Girlfriend," she expressed her frustration with a horrible break-up.
Around this time, Stefani dyed her trademark white-blonde locks bright fuchsia. She told Marie Claire magazine that the vivid new color was in response to her break-up with Gavin Rossdale, the lead singer of the grunge band Bush.
The couple later got back together. That same year No Doubt released the album Rock Steady , which had strong hip-hop and reggae influences. In , Stefani released her first solo album, Love. Baby , which had more of a pop and club music sound than her work with No Doubt. In making the album, Stefani worked with a number of well-known songwriters and producers, including Dr.
Her next solo effort, The Sweet Escape , was also a smash hit. Stefani earned a Grammy Award nomination for her duet with Akon on the album's title track. After joining her No Doubt bandmates for a national tour in , Stefani and the group reunited again in B in while she began auditioning for movies like Mr. Smith and in the same year her first appearance in The Aviator by Martin Scorsese and she received an award for her performance.
The fashion line takes inspiration from Japanese, Guatemalan and Jamaican styles. The line is popular among personalities like Nicole Kidman, Teri Hatcher among others.
Although Gwen was very much involved in this relationship but Kanal broke up with her. While on a tour in , she met Gavin Rossdale , the lead singer and guitarist of the band Bush.
In , they married each other in London. Two years later, through a paternity test she discovered that Rossdale had a daughter and this devastated Gwen so much so that it affected their relation negatively.
I've been making a conscious effort not to think about the future. I'm lucky to not have a real job, to be able to express myself, be creative and be relevant. I don't know what I will be doing in 10 years. How old will I be? I don't want to think about it to be honest, because it's a waste of time. Tomorrow night I'll be in bed with my husband again and it will be really great. It's all about right now. The one thing that makes me feel super lucky about my financial success is that I have a housekeeper.
My songs are basically my diaries. Some of my best songwriting has come out of time when I've been going through a personal nightmare. I really want to take some more time out and be with my husband.
I guess what I really want is to have a baby. Life is short and you've got to get the most out of it. I'd like to stress that I only have a small role. Oh, who am I kidding? There are no small roles in a Martin Scorsese film.
Regarding her role in The Aviator For me, acting comes from the same place as performing music. I just have to perform. I wanted to get it right and I did. Sometimes you just have to go for it. It was a matter of timing. We've all been growing up and our priorities have changed. Then I went and got married and my priorities certainly changed.
Although at times I think there's less of me on this than anything I've done because of all the people involved. I imagine having children will save me from my vanity and fill whatever fears I have. It's not like it discourage me from doing something I want to do".
