Gwen Stefani is just a girl who has trouble remembering the lyrics to her own songs.
“I don't remember them, no, not at all. Not me!” Stefani, 54, revealed during an appearance on Wednesday, February 14 Jimmy Kimmel Live!.
Kimmel, 56, said he was shocked by the musician's statement, in which he told her to make sure she reviewed the lyrics before performing with her former No Doubt bandmates. Tom Dumont, Adrian Young And Tony Channelat Coachella this year in Indio, California.
“I think I'll probably have to learn eight or nine of them [songs],” she laughed.
Although No Doubt's setlist for the music festival has not been publicly revealed, Stefani accidentally let one of the songs slip during her talk show appearance.
“One of the first songs I ever wrote was called 'Different People,' we do that,” she said of the 1995 song before quickly putting her hand over her mouth, shocked by what she said.
Then she tried to correct herself and added, “Maybe we can do that.”
This will be the first time No Doubt has played together in almost a decade. “It's been 9 years, it's so weird!” the pop star exclaimed.
The last time the band performed was in 2015 at the KAABOO festival in Del Mar, California. However, Stefani is not concerned about the years they are not on stage. In fact, she can't wait for the music festival.
“I know it's going to be great,” she said. “I'm so excited!”
Stefani revealed that the group hasn't really started rehearsing yet, but said she can already imagine what it will be like at Coachella in front of thousands of fans.
“I think what's going to be hilarious is that I know what's going to happen,” she explained. “I go on stage, look around and just start to panic because it's going to be like riding a bike. We'll say, 'What are we doing? We're in the future now, we're at Coachella.” It's going to be bizarre.”
Coachella will take place this spring in April. Fans can head into the desert April 12-14 and April 19-21 to witness No Doubt's epic reunion. The band will also be joined by several other artists such as Lana Del Ray, Doja cat And Tyler, the Creator.
