Singer Gwen Stefani has admitted she was never comfortable being seen as a "sex symbol".
The "Voice" star debuted the charts with blonde locks and hot red lips when she fronted punk band No Doubt and has widely been considered one of the sexiest women in the music industry ever since, but the singer never saw herself in that light, reported Female First.
"The way my parents brought me up was Catholic. I had conservative parents, and I was raised to be very true to my morals. Thank God... I never felt comfortable being a sex symbol. I never, ever saw myself as that," she said.
