Grammy-nominated pop star expecting first child

December 20, 2005 12:00 AM ET

Five time Grammy nominated Gwen Stefani is approximately three months pregnant, according to US Weekly. The magazine reports that family members close to both Stefani and her husband Gavin Rossdale confirmed the news. This would be the first child for the pop star and No Doubt frontwoman, 36, and the second for the former Bush frontman, 38.

Douglas Rossdale, Gavin's father, told the London US Weekly office, "We are delighted." Stefani's mother, Patti, also confirmed the pregnancy to the magazine's Los Angeles office. The artists' publicists have yet to personally confirm the report.

The charismatic singer for pop-ska superstars No Doubt, Stefani broke out as a solo artist last year with the release of her debut, Love, Angel, Music, Baby. The album went on to sell big, and was recently nominated for five Grammys -- including Album of the Year and Record of the Year, for the single "Hollaback Girl."

Stefani and Rossdale were wed in 2002. Their baby is reportedly due in June.

“Is It True”

Brenda Lee | 1964

As the British Invasion reached its peak in 1964, Brenda Lee went from Nashville to London to record one of her hardest-rocking hits, her perky vocal backed by a stuttering, squalling guitar. That guitar was played by session musician Jimmy Page, yet to skyrocket to fame with first the Yardbirds and then Led Zeppelin. "She said to me, 'I've come here to make a record with the British sound,'" remembered producer Mickie Most. "She felt she wouldn't get the same sound in Nashville because they're only just catching up on the British beat group sound of about six months ago."
