Gwen Stefani: Lady Gaga, Rihanna, Katy Perry Trying To Be Sex Symbols

April 7, 2011
Gwen Stefani: Lady Gaga, Rihanna, Katy Perry Trying To Be Sex SymbolsGwen Stefani has claimed that current female pop stars like Lady Gaga, Rihanna and Katy Perry are actively trying to become sex symbols.

The No Doubt singer made the admission when asked whether she believe the artists had copied her style.

"I don't see myself in those girls. I usually put pants on," she said. "I see these girls as more going for the sex-symbol thing."

Stefani said she used to be "like a tomboy" but still thought that "every girl is sexy".
