Gwen Stefani

• "I imagine my children are going to save me from my vanity and be my passion and fill whatever fears I have of the amazing time I'm having right now being gone.“
• "When you first have a baby your life doesn't change. I mean, you have a little less sleep and you drag these cuddly things around you and it's just amazing. But you still get to be you. Once they get to, like, five, six and school and it starts to get, like, 'Wow, they got real problems. They're my responsibility.' Oh my God. That is overwhelming.“
• "I don't mean this in a stuck-up way, but I needed an attitude song.“

• "If I wasn't even famous or had any success, I would still wake up and put tons of make-up on, and put on a cool outfit. That's always been who I've been my whole life, so that's never gonna change. I love fashion. I love getting dressed up. I love Halloween, too.“
• "My mom and dad met at Anaheim High School. After they got married, all they wanted to do was have four children, and they did.“
• "I try not to be but I'm super-neurotic about diet. I'm neurotic about trying not to be neurotic! I'm like every other girl. I have to try really hard my whole life to try to be fit. And I'm super-vain. And I want to wear cute clothes.“
• "At a certain point I'm going to want to have a family.“
• "My priorities are always going to be my husband and my family now. That's a huge, huge thing.“
• "My mom always said I was the peacemaker in the family. My older brother, Eric, was the leader, the creative one. I was just his puppet.“
• "Finding that balance between work and family is the hardest thing I've ever done - by far.“
• "As a famous person you think how you're gonna end it, get away and have a normal life.“
• "If I wasn't even famous or had any success, I would still wake up and put tons of make-up on, and put on a cool outfit. That's always been who I've been my whole life, so that's never gonna change. I love fashion. I love getting dressed up. I love Halloween, too.“
• "You're always tellin' me to go out more, Go ahead, get out and see the world, But then I think, why should I? I'd rather stay home and cry.“
• "Now I'm a wife and a mother of two. It's a really different role. I always referred to No Doubt as a marriage, because that's what it's like to be together for so long and go through what we've been through. I can't really have that relationship with them anymore.“
• "A miracle... my biggest accomplishment is my marriage so far. Because it's hard, everyone knows it's hard.“
• "Being a singer is all about me. About ego. Being a mom is all about being selfless - two different worlds.“
• "I was thinking that when I have children, that I should always dress as a character for them, so they think their mom is Alice in Wonderland or Cinderella.“
• "It's superfun being a mom, but it's hard too.“
• "Being a mom is hard, I think a lot of working moms feel that way.“
• "My mom always said I was the peacemaker in the family. My older brother, Eric, was the leader, the creative one. I was just his puppet.“
• "I was thinking that when I have children, that I should always dress as a character for them, so they think their mom is Alice in Wonderland or Cinderella. It would be totally messed up!“
• "My mom and dad met at Anaheim High School. After they got married, all they wanted to do was have four children, and they did.“
• "Before, I was really passive, all I cared about was being in love with my boyfriend. I didn't have any creative power, nothing. I don't know that person any more.“
• "Now I'm a wife and a mother of two. It's a really different role. I always referred to No Doubt as a marriage, because that's what it's like to be together for so long and go through what we've been through. I can't really have that relationship with them anymore.“
• "The one thing that makes me feel super lucky about my financial success is that I have a housekeeper.“
• "If I wasn't even famous or had any success, I would still wake up and put tons of make-up on, and put on a cool outfit. That's always been who I've been my whole life, so that's never gonna change. I love fashion. I love getting dressed up. I love Halloween, too.“
• "I remember when I was in school, they would ask, 'What are you going to be when you grow up?' and then you'd have to draw a picture of it. I drew a picture of myself as a bride.“
