More quotes by Gwen Stefani
Writing songs is super intimate. It's a bit like getting naked.
Gwen Stefani
My mom was always making me clothes. We'd go to the fabric store, pick out patterns, and it was a creative process. I heard that word a lot growing up: creative.
Gwen Stefani
I remember when I was in school, they would ask, 'What are you going to be when you grow up?' and then you'd have to draw a picture of it. I drew a picture of myself as a bride.
Gwen Stefani
Oh yea FORTUNATELY the girls are a lot braver then the guys, they flirt all the time.
Gwen Stefani
I was down after divorce - I was all the way down. And I just felt like, God, I gotta turn this around. I can't go down like this. I have to know that this is happening for a reason. And I knew that I had to turn to music.
Gwen Stefani
I think when I first started discovering I could write songs, I was so naive. And it was after I got broken up with and had my heart sliced up into a bunch of little pieces that I was like, I'm going to say this. I didn't even know how to play guitar.
Gwen Stefani
I've always loved fashion - it's a reflection of your personality.
Gwen Stefani
It's not about me - it's like, How can I help you? And when you give like that, you receive so much. It was an incredible experience, but it also gave me that bug: I wanted new music so badly.
Gwen Stefani
I don't fight with people - like, I can barely fight with my husband because I'll just start crying instead.
Gwen Stefani
I've made clothes my whole life, but I was just naive about the fashion world. But I think it's successful because I've been really involved. Picking the samples, inspirations, color palette.
Gwen Stefani
How am I supposed to be a mom to two kids, a wife and do a show every night? It's impossible!
Gwen Stefani
People can say whatever they want to about me... and I don't get too affected. But I didn't want them to think I was a failure.
Gwen Stefani
I wish I could write more make-believe. It's a lot easier to write about hard times and when things are going wrong. But I've never been a private person.
Gwen Stefani
Now I'm a wife and a mother of two. It's a really different role. I always referred to No Doubt as a marriage, because that's what it's like to be together for so long and go through what we've been through. I can't really have that relationship with them anymore.
Gwen Stefani
I'm kind of lazy. I like to lie around with my husband and watch TV and stuff like that.
Gwen Stefani
We [No Doubt] were making music that was the opposite of grunge and what was popular on the radio, and we were fine with that. And for a garage band, we were massive! We were already successful in our own minds.
Gwen Stefani
My parents always pushed creativity on us, but they made it seem like the fun thing to do.
Gwen Stefani
And all I know is, you've got to give me everything. Nothing less 'cause, you know I give you all of me.
Gwen Stefani
I have to tell everyone everything that's going on. It is different once you're married, because that's sacred.
Gwen Stefani
I'm trying to be present, not thinking and worrying about the past or the future. That's such a waste of time, you know?
Gwen Stefani
