album and tour expected in 2009
Hi all!
A new article on MTV.com (http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1584561/20080401/stefani_gwen.jhtml?rsspartner=rssYahooNewscrawler) states that the next No Doubt album and tour will happen in 2009. :
Manager Jim Guerinot said the yet-untitled album, which is being
produced by Mark Spike Stent (Björk, U2, Britney Spears), is penciled
in for the first half of 2009. Between the babies and recording, No
Doubt are not expected to do any touring in 2008, but, Guerinot
promised, they plan to hit the road hard in 2009 for their first
full-fledged band tour in nearly five years.
Of course, I was hoping for a little sooner, but the first half of next year isn't so far away relatively speaking!
According to UK Vogue (http://www.vogue.co.uk/vogue_daily/story/story.asp?stid=51837), there will be a Harajuku Lovers line of fragrances released this fall, with a different scent for each girl! I didn't think this project would actually come to life, Stefani confesses.
The idea that Coty would let me do five different fragrances for Harajuku
Lovers was a fantasy. But it really had to be five, because that's what the
world is. Each girl has her own personality and sense of style. We're all saying
something different with unique personalities.
To fit with the
branding, each scent is tailored to each girl's personality and traits. And
Stefani – who is expecting her second child with husband Gavin Rossdale later
this year – doesn't want her beauty empire to stop there.
