• On her tour experience: "The tour was incredible. We played for almost a million people. It was the time of our lives, and every show was just really mind blowing, very emotional. It's kind of hard to believe and take it all in, but it's very inspiring. We were never planning to go on tour, it was just like on the fly — let's go! It was really spontaneous. So now we are trying to go back into the studio and write some music. We have a few more things: we are going to Russia and we are going to Singapore this month. They are just kind of one-off [performances] and then we are going to get serious about doing some songwriting. We were in the studio last week and tried some stuff."
• On new No Doubt singles: "Well it's not a finished song, but we got it started and it was fun. Before we left I was in a little bit of a rut, but I don't feel like that anymore. I gained energy [from the tour]."
• On the best lesson she's learned from being a mother of two: "How much easier my life was before? No I'm kidding, they are the best thing ever and we have so much fun together . . . It was fun [having them on tour]. It was really fun, but hard."
