Gavin Rossdale: 'I was so shy when I was a kid'

Singer Gavin Rossdale recently sat down with Us Weekly magazine for its '25 things you don't know about me' feature and revealed that he was a very shy youngster.

The star, who is married to No Doubt rocker Gwen Stefani, explained that he was a bashful and quiet child: "I was so shy when I was a kid. I'd blush if someone spoke to me."

Rossdale then admitted that he loves to cook for his family at home, adding: "I'm a decent at-home cook. I will eat anything that looks good, I was a vegetarian for five years."

Last September, he told Sirius XM that his wife announced her latest pregnancy to him via email: "I got this email on the road, from Gwen, and the title was in capitals, 'LOOK WHAT YOU DID TO ME NOW'. I was like, 'What is this?' My blood pressure went through the roof. And I opened the email, and it was the pregnancy stick."
