STEVIE NICKS INTERVIEW: Opens up about her iconic fashion moments and rock-star life





As the legendary singer-songwriter releases her first studio album in a decade, she opens up about her iconic fashion moments and rock-star life.

By CHRISTINE LENNON

Stevie Nicks is Team Edward all the way. Honestly, is it any surprise that the now-62-year-old gypsy queen of '70s rock, singer for the epic band Fleetwood Mac, arbiter of romantic, Gothic style, and writer of magical songs about devastating heartbreak is a Twilight fan?

"I saw New Moon when I was on tour with Fleetwood Mac," Nicks says, curled up under a white fur throw on an armchair in the Santa Monica condo she shares with her 12-year-old Yorkie, Sulamith. Through the floor-to-ceiling windows, the sun is setting over the Pacific, and with the room's soft lighting — all chandeliers and crystals — and her elbow-length blonde hair cascading over her shoulders, it's as if she's been beamed down from classic-rock heaven. Nicks is an ageless creature, wearing a handful of gold chains with charms dangling over a navy silk dolman-sleeved top and black pants. Only when she puts on her glasses, an ombré-tinted pair of aviators, does she look her age. "When Bella just sat there in the window, crying for months because she thought she'd never see him again," Nicks trails off, looking wistful about their vampire love. She's had a Bella moment or two herself. "It's happened to me twice, when there was no explanation. It was just over."

Two of pop music's most iconic voices -- Rod Stewart and Stevie Nicks -- delivered a nonstop barrage of hits over the course of three-and-a-half hours during their co-headlining show, "Heart and Soul," at Phoenix's USAirways Center last Friday (4/15).

Nicks made a triumphant return to her hometown stage promptly at 7:30 p.m. after an introduction by Stewart, which thrilled the sold-out crowd. Dressed in a black lace dress and a scarf around her shoulders, the former Fleetwood Mac songstress kicked off the show with an energized "Stand Back."

Taku Hirano to Re-join Stevie Nicks in May... One Night Only

I'm not sure what Stevie's band configuration is beyond the end of Heart and Soul, I assumed there wouldn't be any changes to the line-up - but it appears for one show at least Percussionist Taku Hirano is back in the band!

Taku Tweeted yesterday that he'll be re-joining his Stevie Nicks family for one show while he's between tours.  Taku will play the May 11th Albuquerue, NM show at the Sandia Casino Amphitheatre.

So Lenny either has other commitments, or it's two percussionists that night... 

Taku has toured extensively with Fleetwood Mac as well as Stevie and Lindsey on their solo tours stretching back to Say You Will in 2003.
