Gwen Stefani recalls meeting Sting as a teenager

Gwen Stefani says she was disappointed when Sting was rude to her asking for an autograph as a teenager, though he later apologised.

Gwen Stefani says that she was disappointed by a meeting with her idol Sting, back when she was a "fat and puberty-stricken"

teenager.

She said: "My dad was like: 'Ask him for his autograph,' so

I did, and Sting was really mean. But I loved him. When I met

Sting years later, I told him that story, and he was like: 'Oh man, I was such a dick back then.' But he's such a great guy."
