Gwen Stefani: ‘Fashion is my Back-up Career’
Posted by Adam
GWEN Stefani‘s fashion career is a back-up to her job as a musician.
The 40-year-old singer — who launched her fashion line L.A.M.B in 2004 — admits she will not be in music forever and wanted to have something else to do.
“I wanted so badly to have a backup plan for when I’m not performing anymore,” she said. “Let’s be realistic: It’s not going to be like this forever. So I wanted to continue having something creative to do.
Gwen — who has recently reunited with her old band No Doubt — also claims she went ventured into the style world following years of making clothes as a child.
“I made so many clothes growing up, and I used to do my own costumes,” she said. “All I would do was just daydream about what I was going to make.”
Gwen recently revealed that No Doubt’s comeback album would be influenced by 80s one-hit-wonders.
“The last few weeks we’ve been listening to the worst of the 80s, in the sense of bad but good,” she said.
“Pop songs, one-hit wonders, nifty songs, things like that. You just go back and find things that you love, and try to figure out how they made them.”
