No Doubt Performs ‘Just a Girl’ and ‘Don’t Speak’ at FireAid
“You can’t have a concert in So-Cal without this next band,” John Mayer told the Kia Forum crowd at FireAid in Los Angeles on Thursday night. “No Doubt!” The Orange County natives then opened with a playful rendition of their 1995 hit “Just a Girl,” followed it with an emotional performance of “Don’t Speak,” and wrapped up with their traditional set closer “Spiderwebs.”
“It’s all about love tonight,” Gwen Stefani told the audience. “We love you so much Los Angeles. Look at us all coming together for love.”
The potent dose of Nineties nostalgia followed performances by Green Day with Billie Eilish, Stephen Stills with Graham Nash, Pink, Gracie Abrams, the Black Crowes, Rod Stewart, and Earth, Wind & Fire.
The star-studded FireAid concerts were organized in a matter of days to raise money for the victims of the Los Angeles wildfires that have been raging across the county for weeks. The show streamed live at select AMC Theaters, iHeartRadio, Apple Music, Netflix, Paramount+, Prime Video, Max, SiriusXM, SoundCloud, Veeps and YouTube.
No Doubt reunited last year for the first time in over a decade to perform a special set at Coachella. They were joined onstage by Olivia Rodrigo. They haven’t released an album of new material since 2012’s Push and Shove. It wasn’t a commercial success, and Stefani later admitted it was incredibly to create.
“I feel that record was where No Doubt was most confused,” she told Fault magazine in 2023. “We just had come back together, and we wanted to do it so badly, but for me, I was completely depleted from my world tour and giving birth. So many things had happened and then we tried to write that record…When you work with No Doubt, it’s almost like you have to have somebody that’s just there to make everybody happy so that everybody can have their little piece. It was a lot. That was a struggle, that record. But I’m happy that someone listened to it.”
