Gwen Stefani Covers FASHION Magazine & Explains Why She Won’t Pose Topless

Pop star Gwen Stefani attended the 2015 Grammy Awards yesterday, and now flaunts her glamorous side for the March cover of FASHION Magazine. The 45-year-old singer talks her style, why she won’t pose topless and the truth behind ‘having it all’ with the publication.

On sexuality:
“We have this sexual side to us that is alluring and powerful. It’s a gift. When you discover it when you are around 14, it feels amazing,” she says. “But you learn it’s fleeting. Sexuality is something I’ve never felt comfortable with. I won’t be doing any topless photo shoots anytime soon. It’s not my thing. I don’t judge people for it, but I didn’t even wear high heels until I was 30. It’s important to evolve outside of your sexuality to entertain people. It was never a card that I played or will play – ever.”

On never regretting her fashion wardrobe choices:
“Everything seems to have a reason for looking a certain way,” she says. “If you [hand] me an old photo of myself, I can tell you why I’m wearing what I’m wearing. Somebody just showed me a picture of me at a MTV awards, where I was wearing this blue fur bathing suit top,” she says, with a lilt of pride in her voice. “Right away, I was like, ‘Yup, I know why I wore that.’ I had just gotten off a two-and-a-half year tour with No Doubt and I felt like I needed to break free a bit. How can anyone regret wearing something? I never do. It reflects who you are at that moment.”
