Black Eyed Peas to Return

Black Eyed PeasBlack Eyed Peas are set to return next year.

The "I Gotta Feeling" group - will.i.am, Fergie, apl.de.ap and Taboo - are getting back together for their first studio album and tour since The Beginning in 2010. "The Black Eyed Peas are all in agreement they should put a new tour on for the fans - it's not like they properly split when they parted for a hiatus in 2012. This time around they're going to head back into the studio and lay down a new album quickly and then hit the road once again. Will.i.am has been instrumental in persuading all the Peas to get back into shape and hit the road again," a source said.

The source says new mother Fergie - who has five-month-old son Axl Jack with her husband Josh Duhamel - has been holding the process up. "Fergie's been stalling and wants to hold out for as much money as she can guarantee. She's got a baby now and needs it to be a very worthy amount to make her take her baby on the road," the insider added.

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Music, Television, Weddings, Rumors,

Kim Kardashian and Kanye WestKanye West and Kim Kardashian are planning to turn their wedding into a week-long event.

The rapper and his reality TV star fiancee - who got engaged in October - are reportedly set to tie the knot in a lavish ceremony in Paris in May that will feature on Kim's reality series Keeping Up with the Kardashians.

According to The Sun newspaper, the couple, who have eight-month-old daughter North West, have hired wedding planners who are trying to line-up singers Lady Gaga and Fergie to perform, alongside music legend Stevie Wonder and Wu-Tang Clan. The huge event is also rumored to feature fire-dancers, acrobats and fireworks and will have its own currency for guests to spent at a Vegas-style casino.

Kim, 33, and Kanye, 36, met Gaga in Paris and are said to be "desperate" to persuade the "Applause" hitmaker to perform because they are both fans of her music and she was the first artist who was asked to be involved.

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Music, Rivalries, Rumors,

Josh Duhamel and FergieJosh Duhamel reportedly wants Fergie to distance herself from will.i.am.

The Safe Haven star is trying to encourage his wife to return to her solo career, but feels the only way she'll gain success is if she lets go of her Black Eyed Peas bandmate. "Josh is pushing hard for Fergie to make a much cleaner and clearer break from The Black Eyed Peas so she can re-invent herself as a solo artist without the looming spectre of will.i.am influencing every creative decision she makes," a source said.

Fergie - who has four-month-old son Axl with Josh - is reportedly struggling with her self-esteem, but the hunky actor is adamant he'll boost her confidence. "Josh is her biggest fan and he's getting a lot more assertive and interested in Fergie's business. He wants to drive a more permanent wedge between her and will," the source explained.

The 38-year-old singer - who hasn't released a solo album since 2006 - recently said will.i.am would be handling the production of her second solo release, but it is now believed she is beginning to side with Josh.

Fergie and Josh Duhamel Expecting Their First Child

Josh Duhamel and FergieFergie is pregnant. The Black Eyed Peas singer - whose real name is Stacy Ferguson - has revealed she and her Safe Haven actor husband are expecting their first child.

"Josh & Me & BABY makes three!!!! #mylovelybabybump (sic)" Fergie wrote on Twitter.

The 37-year-old singer recently joked she and her hunky 40-year-old spouse were enjoying trying for a baby. "We'll be happy when it happens. It's not really in our hands but trying is great for our relationship," she said previously.

Last year following the death of the couple's beloved rescue dog, Meatloaf, from a brain disorder, Josh revealed they were planning to start a family rather than replace the pooch: "I think we're going to focus on our human baby first. Hopefully we'll have kids and then at some point we'll get another dog. I don't know how to describe it, but anyone who would come over, they all went to Meatloaf. He was just so f***ing adorable. He was a really, really soulful smart little dog. I never thought I'd be as shaken up as I was when he was gone."

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Music, Prime Time, Reality, FOX, Gossip, Rumors,

Fergie at this year's GrammysFergie wants a job on The X Factor.

The Black Eyed Peas star - real name Stacy Ferguson - has asked to meet with Simon Cowell to discuss a possible job as a judge on the show, taking one of the slots left by Nicole Scherzinger and Paula Abdul who were sacked after the end of the first series.

"There have been some conversations. It's in the early stages, but Fergie's the one who approached the producers about joining the panel," a source told Life&Style.

Fergie is one of a large number of female singers who have been linked to the job - including Britney Spears, Adele and LeAnn Rimes. However, "Hold It Against Me" hitmaker Britney is reportedly holding out for a huge paycheck before she takes part.

"Money is not an issue for the show. As of now, they are looking to pay her $12-15 million for the first season, with a drastic price hike for a second year based on ratings performance. Simon Cowell wants at least a two-year commitment and Britney wants an out clause if she doesn't want to continue after one year of service," a source said.


Fergie Becomes Face of Wet ‘n’ Wild

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celebrities, Health & Beauty, News,

FergieFergie has become the new face of Wet 'n' Wild.

The Black Eyed Peas singer is the beauty brand's first celebrity spokeswoman and she says it feels right because she has links to the Markwins Beauty Products Inc.-owned company:

"For me, this is really no risk whatsoever; it has always been a part of my life, so it is natural to me. I like to dive into things that haven't been done before. That keeps me stimulated. Otherwise, life is boring. In Hacienda Heights, there were a lot of beautiful chola girls. They wore Wet 'n' Wild. I would watch them put on their eyeliners and lip liners at school. The big thing for the eyeliners was to heat them up and put on the black eyeliners smooth. They would also line their lips with dark lip liner....Their faces were like palettes. I would try to emulate them. Eric Chen, who is the [Markwins] owner, was like 30 seconds to a minute away from me growing up. He saw girls like me stocking up on those lip liners and eyeliners."

Fergie also says she agreed to work with the brand because their products are affordable yet still good quality: "I like something accessible, something that my fans can afford. It feels good to be a partner with brands my fans can afford because they have helped me get to where I am today. All the brands that I am partnering with my fans can afford."


Fashion Police: Fergie is Too Cool For Zippers

Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Celebrities, Fashion Designers, News,

Fergie

Something tells me that Fergie ought to be looking for another stylist. Or maybe she just ought to purchase borrow designer dresses that fit her properly.

The Black Eyed Peas singer was spotted at a Los Angeles In Style event wearing this Jean-Charles de Castelbajac number. While a dress that features Felix the Cat in a rather religious-looking light is already questionable (de Castelbajac is known for slapping pop culture all over his eccentric pieces), the larger concern is the back of the dress, which clearly cannot be zipped up all the way. While we all get a bit sad when our favorite dresses don't quite fit anymore, it beats the embarrassment of wearing something that is obviously two sizes too small for you. Just let it go, Fergie -- I'm sure there were better looks in your closet than this!

Is she making a statement about how we should never leave a favorite dress behind, or has she completely lost her sense of style?
