Stefani Says Pregnancy Made Her Cry

Gwen Stefani has confessed that touring while she was pregnant made her cry.
The 'Wind It Up' singer continued to play live for a short time while she was expecting son Kingston but admits it took its toll on her emotionally.
She said in an interview with Elle magazine: "I would be seriously crying before I went onstage. I didn't know how I was going to get through the tour, putting on nine costume changes on a stage in front of 12,000 people every night. And I didn't want people to know I was pregnant. I didn't want to become the Gwen Freak Circus Show - 'Watch it grow onstage.'"
Gwen - who is married to British rocker Gavin Rossdale - also admits she found the birth a lot harder than she expected it to be.
She added: "I thought I was going to be one of those Mother Nature girls. I figured, I'll just squeeze it out, 'cause I'm really strong and I work out and stuff. But it was tough."
