Much like our ‘Retro Rewind’ and ‘From the Vault’ segments, readers of That Grape Juice know what avid music lovers we are – especially of hits past. So in a quest to re-spin the gems and jams of yesterday we introduced a new retrospective segment – ‘TGJ Replay’.
Unlike its ‘Rewind’ and ‘Vault’ predecessors, ‘Replay’ looks to dust off and showcase albums (and eras) from a library of pop music hits. Today, we holla back at Gwen Stefani’s 2004 debut album ‘Love. Angel. Music. Baby’… (more…)
As comebacks go, No Doubt‘s ‘Push & Shove’ came and went like a thief in the night.
The album’s performance (or lack-thereof) surprised many industry analysts who perceived the group’s popularity was intact despite a ten year hiatus.
In learning the hard way that artists can’t “disappear” and remain relevant these days, the Pop quad mapped out a world tour to re-engage and rebuild their live fanbase.
However, in a somewhat surprising move, the Gwen Stefani led outfit have announced that they have cancelled postponed hitting the road to work on a new album altogether.
And while we already reported that the group are recording new material, it appears the project is coming together much faster than anticipated.
Read their announcement after the jump…
No Doubt may be back in the studio after their comeback album ‘Push & Shove’ struggled to make a splash on charts, however that hasn’t stopped Gwen Stefani and co from pressing on with promotion for the set.
The Pop quad took over Jimmy Kimmel Live! last night , rocking out to the LP’s title track and fan favourite ‘Hella Good’.
Peep their performance after the jump…
For many, Gwen Stefani’s short lived but well spent solo career marks one of Pop’s best eras to date.
Spawning two solo albums outside of ‘No Doubt‘, her time at the top saw her stand tall as one of her genre’s more talented it girls, inspiring the likes of Lady GaGa (see last scene of ‘Love Game‘ video) and Nicki Minaj (see Harajuku Barbie).
However, this month has seen Stefani question the authenticity of her run, in an interview with Spanish Vogue.
Cop a gander of Gwen Stefani!
The singer leaves No Doubt of her Pop stunner status in the January 2013 issue of Vogue magazine.
Looking half of her 43 years, the mother of two continues to blaze the campaign trail in support of No Doubt’s comeback album ‘Push & Shove’.
And while the LP (the group’s first in over 10 years) hasn’t set the charts alight, its performance or lack-thereof hasn’t halted their collective hustle. For, the quad hit the studio with Shellback (Pink’s ‘So What’, Britney’s ‘If U Seek Amy’, Maroon 5′s ‘Moves Like Jagger’) last week. Could a re-release or new album be on the horizon? Time will tell.
In the meanwhile, peep more pics from Stefani’s shoot (which features her bandmates) below….
43-year-old rocker Gwen Stefani leaves no doubt that her fashion game is still a force to be reckoned with if her recent spread for ‘Marie Claire UK’ is anything to go by.
For, after staging a successful reunion with band No Doubt, the mom-of-two is still managing to balance family and fitness while keeping the steam going behind her killer fashion line ‘L.A.M.B.’.
The songstress also dishes on her marriage to rocker Gavin Rossdale and if baby #3 could be on the way soon. The mag hit stores today, but look below for its accompanying photoshoot:
‘Rich Girl’, ‘Sweet Escape’, ‘Cool’, ‘Hollerback’. These are but a few of the hits that catapulted Gwen Stefani into solo stardom between 2003-2006. And then, it quite literally, went silent…until now.
The 42 year old is back with stablemates No Doubt and, by the looks of it, has no plans to go it alone again.
Details below…
Cop a gander of Gwen Stefani!
Looking ever-stunning, the No Doubt songstress leaves…no doubt about her effortless youth on the October cover of Elle magazine UK.
The high-profile feature comes on the heels of yesterday’s premiere of the title track from Gwen and co’s comeback album ‘Push And Shove’ (due September 25th).
Gwen Stefani leaves No Doubt about her diva status in the latest issue of Harper’s Bazaar.
The group’s front-woman strikes many a stunning pose in the magazine’s September 2012 issue; a feature which will inevitably give a boost to quad’s ‘Push & Shove’ album campaign.
