Gwen Stefani Says She Was 'Literally Channeling God' to Write New Album
Gwen Stefani's forthcoming record, This Is What The Truth Feels Like, is a very personal affair: An album that deals with her separation from ex-husband Gavin Rossdale and her now budding romance with Blake Shelton, Truth was occasionally a little too heavy on the heartbreak for label executives, who often told the singer to tone down the emotion.
But Stefani was able to convince label reps to back off, albeit with the tender help of the Lord: According to an interview with Refinery 29 published Tuesday, Stefani claims she was "literally channeling God" to record the album. This sentiment was enough, apparently, for the label to quit meddling in her creative process.
