Gwen Stefani and Carly Pearce teamed up for an unexpected collaboration during the 2023 CMT Music Awards on Sunday night (April 2). Stefani, dressed in a white and red polka dot dress, revisited her 1995 hit “Just a Girl” from her time as No Doubt’s frontwoman. Pearce, clad in all black, joined Stefani on stage to sing the second verse of the iconic track.
