Stefani opened the show with the song "
Harajuku Girls", an ode to
Harajuku, the fashion district of
Tokyo, Japan. She appeared on stage wearing a tiara and baby doll outfit, sitting in the red velvet and gold throne from the cover of the album. and surrounded by her backing dancers, also called the
Harajuku Girls, while video images of Harajuku itself played on screens behind her. Her second song was the first single from the album, "
What You Waiting For?", which she began as a ballad before bringing it up to its usual pace. Stefani and the Harajuku Girls then left the stage to change into one-piece bathing suits while her band continued to play, before returning to perform "
The Real Thing". A group of four
breakdancers came on stage to perform while Stefani left the stage again to change into a black-and-white leather tracksuit. For the next song, the album's sixth single "
Crash", the audience was then divided into male and female halves and, as images of a car hood bouncing to the beat were broadcast, each half took turns to sing the lyric "back it up, back it up". Stefani then performed the fourth single from the album, "
Luxurious". Stefani changed outfits again into a pair of black hot pants to perform "
Rich Girl", the album's second single, while walking along a catwalk into the crowd and giving fans high-fives. She then sang "Danger Zone" and "
Long Way to Go", both intimate songs, before performing two new songs back-to-back: "
Wind It Up", which would become the first single from her second album
The Sweet Escape, and "Orange County Girl". "Wind It Up" was performed with a carnival vibe and "Orange County Girl" was accompanied by a video montage of childhood photos of Stefani and images of items mentioned in the song. She changed into a silver sequinned cocktail dress for the fourth single from her first album, "
Cool". In early performances of the show, Stefani's next song was "
Hollaback Girl", the album's third and best-selling single, performed in a drumming costume and singing with the audience. This was followed by an encore of "
Serious" and "Bubble Pop Electric", for which Stefani was brought out in a stretcher by the Harajuku Girls. However, in later performances, "Hollaback Girl" was saved for the encore and preceded by the two other songs. ==Critical response==
