Gwen Stefani broke down in tears on The One Show last night (June 19).
Hosts Alex Jones and Jermaine Jenas surprised the iconic singer with a video message from ska legend Pauline Black, one of Gwen’s childhood heroes.
Pauline said in the video: “I’m absolutely thrilled that I’ve influenced you and your music. Sending you lots of love my dear”.
After receiving the message, Gwen said: “Zoom in guys, these are real tears. Wow I’m shaking. I can’t believe that. That is incredible.”

However, Jermaine was met with quite the shut down when he replied: “I can understand why.” Gwen answered him: “You don’t understand anything, okay?”
Former footballer Jermaine jokingly hid behind Alex as his co-presenter quipped: “You tell him, Gwen,” as the trio laughed.
You don’t understand anything, okay?
Gwen, who used to be in the ska band No Doubt, founded by her brother, explained that The Selecter singer Pauline was one of her role models growing up: “She was my idol when I was like 13 and she just talked to me, it’s crazy. You don’t understand too because the music was very underground, we discovered it. Nobody knew what it was. They were singing about London so I became a huge fan”.
