Well, No Doubt has been extra busy the past couple of days providing us lucky fans with studio updates, photos, and even a short video on twitter!

They just posted: “A very big Happy Birthday today to Mason Young, you rock and we love you! -Tony, Tom, Gwen and your Dad”  Happy Birthday, Mason!

Gwen posted this video “Morning music gx  http://yfrog.us/5tqppz“.  She also posted that they are working on the album artwork!

Hello!  Please right click here to download the video of Gwen’s Access Hollywood interview.  I tried to add this one to the video section, and had the same problem as with the Lowell videos, so doing it this way for now.

Access Hollywood also posted a video on their site of an outtake from the interview. Gwen talks about how the album is coming along. When she said the word “single” I spazzed a little. It’s right around the corner! :

Hi all!  Gwen is being interviewed tonight on the TV show Access Hollywood.  Thanks to the lovely Amy at EIT for letting me know – in other areas (but not mine grrr) it’s on at 7PM EST on NBC.  In my area, they’re showing some dumb local show at that time, and Access Hollywood doesn’t come on until 1AM tomorrow!  So, tomorrow afternoon I’ll upload it.  Hope you lucky people that get to see it tonight enjoy.  :D

Hello! I re-captured the 4/15/2002 Lowell, MA show in mpg2 (DVD) format, and added to the video section.  I left the old mpg1 files up as well, because the VHS tape has degraded some.  I’m going to try and add some more shows asap.  :)

EDIT-Thanks to Fabio for letting me know that most of the files are downloading with zero file sizes.  I have no idea why.  I’ll get them working asap.  Sorry!

to Mr. Tom Dumont!!

Gwen is on the cover of the November issue of  InStyle magazine!  Wow, so stunning!
From InStyle.com:

“Gwen Stefani is InStyle’s November cover girl! In this issue, the rock star designer opens up about doing so much in so many arenas—fashion (she launches her third line Harajuku Mini for Target mid-November), music (a new No Doubt album is slated for next year), and family (“being a mother is probably the most challenging thing I do,” she says of parenting Kingston, 5, and Zuma, 3, with husband Gavin Rossdale). What’s her secret? “At work I’ve learned how to delegate. You don’t have to be on a ladder in a warehouse, micromanaging. You can be at home. And teamwork is also such a big part of marriage and parenting.” She also delves into another area of expertise—beauty. “My hair color is L’Oréal, but I won’t reveal the number,” says Stefani, a spokesperson for the brand. “And I do my roots as often as Marilyn Monroe did hers. I’m serious. I found out.” Though, she wasn’t always blond. “Right after we came home from the first No Doubt tour I felt like I might get recognized, so I colored my hair red. And I hated it.” As for her famous red lips? “The makeup goes on every day, even if I’m not going anywhere.” For more of our exclusive interview, pick up the November issue, on newsstands Friday, October 21st.”
