Stefani was born on October 3, 1969 in Fullerton, California. As a teen, she joined her brother, Eric, in forming the band No Doubt. Her brother eventually left the band to pursue a career in animation working on The Simpsons. It wasn’t until the release of their third album in 1995 that the band would finally achieve mainstream success. As the lead vocalist, Stefani was thrust into the spotlight. She would eventually go on to find success as a solo artist and launch her own fashion line, L.A.M.B.
In 2014, she made her first appearance as a full time coach on the hit singing competition series The Voice. This season, she joins the show for the fourth time for its 17th season along with Kelly Clarkson, John Legend, and boyfriend Blake Shelton.
