Gwen Stefani’s world is doing fine
Former No Doubt singer and fashion icon Gwen Stefani is optimistic. Life is good. Career is doing wonderful. Family is stable. Apart from her new L.A.M.B. collection, which she launched last month during the New York Fashion Week, she is doing concerts to support her latest album, “The Sweet Escape.”
Gwen is about to take over the Viennese stage on October 17 in Stadthalle and she sat down with the staff of Woman, a Viennese fashion/style women’s magazine, talking about her newfound fame, her inspiration, her family. Most of all, she gushed about her wonderful son Kingston James and why the partnership between her and husband Gavin Rossdale isn’t perfect like other couples.
In the interview she also mentioned that her role model has come all the way from Austria, the Viennese nun who became the governess of the legendary singing Von Trapp family from Salzburg, Maria von Trapp.
“Every time I wouldn’t know what to do or when to start, I would always listen to ‘The Sound of Music.’ They told me: Follow your dreams, look forward, and trust yourself!”
She also confessed that she dreamt of having babies when she was a teenager and was praying that ex-boyfriend Tony Kanal would hear her wishes. Sadly, it didn’t happen as Tony needed his space and she ended up brokenhearted.
And that during the trying times when they discovered that Gavin was the father of Daisy Lowe, the two were separated for a little while.
When asked if she gets to miss Gavin while she is on tour, hearing each other’s voice is the most important thing. She is confident that he readily understands the demands of being a musician.
“We see each other now and then. Calling each other often is very important. Gavin knows the touring lifestyle and he finds the right words whenever I am powerless and depressed from having concerts.”
But she quickly asserted that son Kingston relieves her of woes.
“Then I cuddle with Kingston a bit and look what is he up to, how he laughs over simple things and learn his new discoveries, the bad mood suddenly disappears.”
