• WATCH: Gwen Stefani, Pharrell Debut "Spark the Fire" Music Video After 'The Voice' Performance

    When she released her first two solo albums -- Love. Angel. Music. Baby. and The Sweet Escape -- in the mid-2000s, Gwen Stefani was best known for creating hyper annoying, mildly grating pop music. In the best way, of course. With hits like "Hollaback Girl" and "Wind It Up," Stefani blasted onto the top of the pop charts often with the help of Pharrell. Well, now the duo are back again as coaches on The Voice season seven and musical partners with the irritatingly awesome new single "Spark The Fire."
  • 'The Voice' Season 7 Recap & Review: Top 8 Show Up with Stunning Performances as Gwen Stefani & Pharrell Debut "Spark the Fire"

    It's hard to believe, but season seven of The Voice is starting to wind down. Last week, the top 10 gave some of the worst performances of the season. So, if these kids want to seem worthy of the top five or, god forbid, even winning this show, they needed to show up. Luckily for them, they did. From the best of the best (Matt McAndrew, Craig Wayne Boyd) to those who are just somehow holding on (Ryan Sill, Luke Wade), everyone was better than usual, making this show feel truly legitimate.

  • Gwen Stefani's 'Spark the Fire' Unveiled [LISTEN]

    Gwen Stefani is making her comeback and her next single "Spark the Fire," with production from Pharrell, has hit the Internet. She has not released a full-length album since her 2006 LP "The Sweet Escape." Stefani has immersed herself in other projects outside her music realm, like raising a family and her fashion line. But 2014 has seen the revival of the No Doubt frontwoman's solo career, as Stefani readies new material for an upcoming album set for release next month, according to "Billboard." Pharrell first premiered "Spark the Fire" at Odd Future's Camp Flog Gnaw festival. He took out his phone and played it over the speakers, and that was the first taste the Internet got of the track. Then it appeared in a recent Fiat commercial, via "Pop Justice." Now the full version has hit the Internet and is yours to stream.

    One of Jimmy Fallon's most popular "Late Night" and "Tonight Show" games, Lip Sync Battle, is getting its own TV show. Spike TV will be the network home for "Lip Sync Battle," slated for an April premiere. According to "Rolling Stone," actors Stephen Merchant and John Krasinski, both of whom have played the game with Fallon, created the concept with Emily Blunt. If you missed the lip-sync battles with Fallon, then let's recap. Krasinski competed against the host on Late Night, performing a hilarious rendition of Katy Perry's "Teenage Dream." Fallon then invited Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Merchant for a bout as well. That epic battle saw Merchant taking on "Boom! Shake the Room" by DJ Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince and Gordon-Levitt mouthing "Tiny Dancer" by Elton John. Paul Rudd helped bring the game to "The Tonight Show," performing Tina Turner's "You Better Be Good to Me" and Queen's "Don't Stop Me Now." Emma Stone tore through Blues Traveler's "Hook" and DJ Khaled's "All I Do Is Win," and Fallon most recently took on The Voice judges Blake Shelton and Gwen Stefani. Like most of Fallon's games, it is a pleasure to watch.

"I just wanna see y'all faces when it come on," Pharrell said to the crowd. "It's called 'Spark the Fire' — it's about feminism." As reported by Vibe, "Spark the Fire" is rumored to be her next release.
