I think everyone has gifts and everyone has talents. If you are successful at it, it feels really good but it never really penetrates completely. There are moments where I think that we made an amazing record and I'm so proud of it, but I don't wake up and go, "Wow, I'm amazing." (Gwen Stefani)
It's always odd to talk about my fashion. It's something you look at-you don't need to talk about it.
I don't know what I'm going to do, but I've always wanted to do the family thing.
As a famous person you think how you're gonna end it, get away and have a normal life. I imagine my children are going to save me from my vanity and be my passion and fill whatever fears I have of the amazing time I'm having right now being gone. I don't want to drop off and not be on the radio or not be able to talk about myself for hours. I don't want it to go away. But at the same time, I never expected to be here in the first place.
I'm really emotional. I don't fight with people - like, I can barely fight with my husband because I'll just start crying instead. I've learnt not to do that.
I'm like a peanut butter sandwich.
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 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.
They are my best friends, so when I told them that I wanted to try something solo they responded in the way that best friends do. 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. - regarding pursuing a solo music career away from her rock group, No Doubt
I imagine having children will save me from my vanity and fill whatever fears I have. - on easing up on her career to consider a family
Rock Steady is where we are as a band right now, stay the course, keep focused. Like the song says, 'A real love survives, a rock steady vibe.' It could just as well be describing No Doubt, our band, after all these years. (Gwen Stefani)
We were labeled a ska band forever and it was always something we were trying to get away from. We wanted to become our own sound. For the first time on this record [tragic kingdom] I think we were able to do that. To mix up all the different influences without freaking people out.
