Stefani and her No Doubt bandmates Tom Dumont, Tony Kanal, and Adrian Young are all set to reunite more than a decade later at the 2024 Coachella. The 90s cult band’s last music endeavor together was in 2012 when they released their final studio album, Push and Shove.
Expressing excitement over the long-awaited and upcoming reunion with her fellow band members, Stefani told Kimmel, “I know it's going to be amazing. I’m so excited, and I think what is going to be hilarious is I know what's going to happen. I’m going to get on stage and look around and just start cracking up because it's just going to be like riding a bike.” 
She added, “We’re going to be like, ‘What are we doing? We’re in the future right now, we’re at Coachella.’ It’s going to be bizarre.”
Though No Doubt does not have a confirmed performance date at Coachella yet, the Bubble Pop Electric singer admitted that she has a lot of homework to do. “I don't remember them [No Doubt songs], no, not at all. I don't! I think I’m going to have to learn probably like, eight or nine [songs],” she said before accidentally revealing one of the tracks from No Doubt’s Coachella setlist. “One of the first songs I ever wrote was called Different People, we’re doing that,” she disclosed before suddenly realizing her slip-up and hastily covering her mouth in shock. “I am not supposed…We might do that one,” Stefani attempted to backtrack, but The Jimmy Kimmel Live! audience continued to scream with excitement.
The song Different People was featured on the band’s third album, 1995’s Tragic Kingdom.
No Doubt last performed together in 2015.
