The singer added that the reunion – which was their first live show since 2015 – had been “a long time coming”, explaining: “It’s been something that we were going to do.”
The group also brought out Olivia Rodrigo at their Coachella performance for ‘Bathwater’, with Stefani asking the pop star on stage: “Olivia Rodrigo, why do good girls like me and you always want the bad boys?”
In other news, Garbage’s Shirley Manson has shared the moment when their label once chose to invest in No Doubt over them: “It was devastating”.
