Gwen Stefani Sounds Psyched as Hell About First Solo Album in Nine Years
Gwen Stefani's back in her judge's seat on The Voice, going through a divorce, mothering three kids under the age of nine (li'l Apollo's just 18 months) and blasting full-speed ahead with her next album. It's a ginormous deal—while Stefani did the No Doubt comeback LP Push and Shove in 2012, she hasn't put out a disc of her own in nine years. Fans are used to the feeling, as there was an 11-year gap between those last two No Doubt records.
The follow-up to Stefani's sophomore album, The Sweet Escape, could be close. On Tuesday she tweeted a handful of updates about her third solo release:
