No Doubt performed a medley of their hits as they reunited once again for the LA FireAid benefit concert last night (January 30).
Their performance at the event was announced earlier this month and was the bandâs first show since playing Coachella 2024, which itself was their first concert since 2015.
The band took to the Kia Forum for their set which included 1995 hit âJust A Girlâ, âDonât Speakâ and âSpiderwebsâ. You can view footage below.
During âJust A Girlâ, Gwen Stefani led the crowd in a boys versus girls chant of the âIâm just a girlâ lyric.

Speaking about their recent reunion in an interview with NME last October, Stefani said: âThe No Doubt thing was so crazy. Itâs not like we made a decision to not do anything, or not hang out or talk,â she said.
âEverybodyâs lives just happened. You know, the time we stopped [in 2015] was when I was going through my horrible family breakup â I donât like to say the word âdivorceâ, because itâs just such a disgusting word. But my life just blew up, it really did.â

She added: âA lot of people are like, âWhy did it take so long [for No Doubt to reform]?â But when you have a family, eight years goes by like that. To heal from what happened, I mean itâs still happening, Iâm still trying to get through it.â
Earlier, Billie Eilish and Green Day teamed up for a live rendition of âLast Night On Earthâ at the venue.
The surviving members of Nirvana â Krist Novoselic, Dave Grohl and Pat Smear also made a surprise appearance at the Kia Forum.
The trio performed Nirvana cuts âBreedâ with St. Vincent on vocals, âSchoolâ with Kim Gordon and âTerritorial Pissingsâ with Joan Jett while Grohlâs daughter Violet took the mic for âAll Apologiesâ.

Other artists who performed on the night included Lady Gaga, Rod Stewart, Katy Perry, Joni Mitchell, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Sting, Stevie Nicks, Gracie Abrams, Olivia Rodrigo and Peso Pluma.
Earlier in the evening, actor Billy Crystal welcomed the crowd at the venue, wearing the clothes he had on when he escaped the Pacific Palisades fire earlier this month. He had lived in the area for 46 years and spoke poignantly about losing his home.
Crystal also revealed that U2 contributed $1m (ÂŁ804,829). All proceeds will go to those affected by the devastating wildfires and donations can be made here.
The event was first announced earlier this month in support of the victims of the wildfires. Some 29 people died in the fires, with thousands more homes and businesses destroyed.
Many musicians stepped up to help out the affected communities in the aftermath of the fires. BeyoncĂ©âs BeyGOOD foundation donated $2.5million to help to relief efforts. Paris Hilton also launched a fund for families displaced by the fires, pledging $100,000 and promised to match up to $100,000 in donations. Dave Grohl also spent his birthday making meals for families that had been effected.
