LOS ANGELES, March 11 -- In addition to working on her first solo album, No Doubt frontwoman Gwen Stefani is also designing clothes and purses -- and acting in feature films. "It has been really challenging but over the last few weeks I have been able to turn a corner," she said on the Web site of her new album, due later this year. "I have over 16 songs and plan on writing as many as it takes to make it great. It is starting to feel like a record and I can see it coming together." The artist will take time out from work on the album to tour with No Doubt this summer, Billboard reported on its Web site. Stefani is also gearing up for the first collection of her LAMB clothing line and has signed on to design another line of LeSportsac bags. She will make her big-screen debut in Martin Scorsese's Howard Hughes bio-pic, "The Aviator," which is scheduled to hit U.S. theaters in November. |
