There have been a lot of rumors surrounding who will be taking the vacated judging jobs on Simon Cowell’s singing competition, The X Factor USA. Since Simon fired Paula Abdul and Nicole Scherzinger, we’ve heard reports that everyone from Britney Spears and Katy Perry to late songstress Whitney Houston as being considered for the open spots.

Britney is reportedly still in negotiations to take the job, after denying a $10 million offer and trying to up the ante on Simon to $20 million.

Now, Black Eyed Peas singer Fergie is looking to toss her name into the hat. She has “her sights on becoming a judge” on the show, which already counts Simon and L.A. Reid as judges.

A source said, “It’s in the early stages, but Fergie’s the one who approached the producers about joining the panel.”

Simon said that he was looking for a judge who “wants to be on the show and isn’t doing it just for a paycheck.”

Do you think Fergie would be a good fit for the show? Or is Simon releasing names of celebrities systematically to see how the American public will react to each one? Who do you want to see judging the show?

It appears that Black Eyed Peas singer Fergie and her actor husband Josh Duhamel have babies on the brain for 2012!

The happy couple have been married for three years and it’s been rumored that she was pregnant already, but this might be the year for them to expand their family of two.

About her possible baby plans, Fergie said, “Maybe, who knows? We’ll see.”

For the time being, Fergie is focusing on the man in her life, Josh. She said, “I want to spend time with my husband, watch football, watch basketball. I’m going where the day takes me – having days where I have no schedule. That’s going to be nice and refreshing for me…a definite change.”

When talking about her plans for 2012, she said, “I’m looking forward to being home and not having to sleep in a different city or country every night.”

Do you think they should have a baby this year? Or should they take this year to enjoy being married without her having to run from gig to gig? Sound off in the comments!

Fergie talked in a recent interview about her former addiction to crystal meth! Did you know that Fergie had a drug problem?!?

She fought her battle against the drug and won and says that her days as an addict proved both good and bad. She said, “I think that sometimes it leads to brilliance and other times it leads to disaster. That’s my answer.”

Her bandmate, Taboo, also dealt with an addiction to drugs and alcohol and said that the lifestyle in the band made it that much harder to walk away from his problems. He said, “The excess of partying for me was out of control and it just let me go to a place where I crashed really hard. It wasn’t just about me, I was damaging my family and almost my career.”

He added, “The thing is, when you do have that addictive personality and you have success and fame, it’s there every night. And you partake. And you get caught up, ‘Oh, I’ll stop tomorrow.’ I’d look at myself in the mirror and say, ‘I’m going to stop’, and next day go to the drug dealer. But I bounced back.”

Good for them! We’re glad to hear of celebrities overcoming addiction problems.

Fergie says that she has been prioritizing things in her life and she has placed her husband, Josh Duhamel, right at the top of the list.

She revealed, “I’ve got a lot on my plate and this year is more about simplifying and really paying attention to the projects that I have on my plate and spending some time with the hubby, you know?”

She went on to say, “We’ll be cleaning out my closet. That’s been a big thing this year, huge for me, purging and splurging. I finally am at the place where I’m letting it go. I’m cleaning things out and I’m starting to make more purchases for myself.”

I’d be concentrating on Josh, too. That man is fine!

Recent rumors were aflutter online suggesting that Fergie had some work done to her face, but her husband, Josh Duhamel is here to dispel the reports.

Fergie and the Black Eyed Peas performed on American Idol last week, causing speculation to brew that she went under the knife.

Josh said not to believe the hype and that he credits her new natural glow to her lipstick. In a recent interview with Ryan Seacrest, he said, “I thought she looked amazing. It’s amazing. You put a different color on your lips and, uh, rumors fly. But she’s the same, she’s the same Fergie. I sleep right next to her every night. I like it.”

And there you have it! But can they deny that she’s had a lot of work done in the past? Probably not.

Even though Fergie’s half-time performance sucked a huge one at the Super Bowl yesterday, she’s coming out in defense of failed National Anthem singer, Christina Aguilera!

In a new interview on the Dan Patrick Show today, Fergie said not to pick on Christina, because she’s only human! She also didn’t have the words to describe what Will.I.Am was wearing on his head!

She said that Christina might have been plagued by nerves and that she’s one of the best singers of our time. And she even called her own performance “pitchy” at times.

What did you think of the performances? Were you impressed or “blah” about them? Let us know in the comments!

The Black Eyed Peas really put on some kind of show for the Super Bowl tonight. And I’m trying to be kind here, but I don’t know how that’s going to work out for me.

The show was obviously all about the special effects and everything, but the performance was just really OFF. Watch the grainy footage of the half-time show below and let us know what you think.

It looks like Christina Aguilera wasn’t the only one messing things up tonight. What do you think?

UPDATE: Embedded the official Super Bowl XLV 2011 halftime show. You’re um.. welcome? Personal observation: this is what a halftime show should look like.

Kim Kardashian took to her Twitter to post the above photo of herself, along with Jennifer Lopez and Fergie at the Dolphins game earlier today.

She tweeted, “At the Dolphins game with my glam girls @JLO and Fergie!” Just in case you were wondering what she was up to today.

I wasn’t, but here you go, just the same.

Fergie launched her first fragrance, called Outspoken for Avon yesterday at the Prudential Center in New Jersey. She held up the bottle proudly, smiling.

I’m more curious as to what it smells like. According to the singer herself, it’s “bold with a Rock-n-Roll Boudoir vibe that will shock you.”

What do you think?

Rumors were flying that Fergie was set to break away from the Black Eyed Peas. Reportedly, she and Will.I.Am had been having arguments and Fergie was saying that she wanted to start a family with husband, Josh Duhamel.

Will took to his official Twitter account to talk about the rumors. He tweeted, “Don’t belive gossip about fergie leaving the group (we are never breaking up) its all lies!!!”

Are you glad they’re not breaking up? I wish Fergie would do another solo album, though, because Big Girls Don’t Cry is still my favorite song by her.

Fergie has admitted that she used to be a cheater when she was in school. I guess what comes around goes around?

She said, “When I was younger, I used to be the cheater. But I’m not talking about going all the way – I wasn’t doing that in high school! I’d have boyfriends and then spring break would come around and I’d be a little bit naughty.”

Just like Josh was “naughty” with that stripper, right? Call me, Josh.

Fergie’s friends are under the impression that she is pregnant.

A source said that she “has definitely got more tummy lately, and she’s certainly acting pregnant. She suddenly cut out alcohol and is taking way better care of herself.”

Ever since the news broke that Josh was cheating on her with a stripper from Atlanta, the couple have reportedly rededicated themselves to their marriage.

A source said, “A baby is their number one priority to making a fresh start. They both want to start a family as quickly as possible.”

Are you buying it?

I don’t know if I’m feeling the outfit/getup/whatever that Fergie wore during her Black Eyed Peas performance at tonight’s Grammy Awards.

Whatever it is, it looks like it could be in the next Tron movie. Neon would make this picture much cooler.

What did you think?

It looks like the Dutchess Fergie has just woke up and realized that her husband is ridiculously too hot for her.

Hubby Josh Duhamel was sneaking around behind her back, doing the nasty with a random stripper. So how does Mrs. Duhamel plan on keeping him around? She’s working out, bitches.

An insider said, “Fergie’s self-esteem took a huge hit after finding out Josh cheated. But she’s fighting back by getting in the best shape of her life. A killer body is the best revenge.”

Too bad there’s no cure for that meth face. Such a shame.

The snitch added, “Fergie is determined to make herself look great for Josh. She even said she’d consider cosmetic procedures. She thinks Josh is a very good man, for the most part, and is worth all the effort.”

Did I mention that her husband is hot?

After only being married for one year, Fergie and actor husband Josh Duhamel have renewed their wedding vows. Sound like a front to you?

Just last year, the couple were hit by rumors of his infidelity after a stripper came forward and said that she had slept with Josh.

Now, on January 9th, the couple renewed their vows in a private ceremony outside of Santa Barbara.

According to sources, the duo renewed their vows with just the two of them along with a minister on a bluff overlooking the ocean.

A source said, “They were both dressed nicely and walked right out to the bluff outside the hotel where weddings often take place. A minister was waiting for them. Fergie was crying and seemed very emotional.”

The couple went to Miro restaurant where they ate alone. The snitch added, “They had the whole restaurant to themselves and left before the first customers came in.”

Nicole Forrester, the stripper who made sexytimes with Fergie’s husband, Josh Duhamel is now apologizing for causing a fuss.

Nicole said, “I’m sorry. I thought, ‘Nobody’s gonna find out. It’s not gonna hurt anybody…I’m sorry that I didn’t think of it like I think of it now.”

She said that she won’t apologize for speaking the truth, though. She said, “Too bad Josh can’t just admit it.”

In regard to being called a homewrecker, Nicole said, “She’s standing by her man, so obviously I’m not wrecking the home too bad, huh?”

When asked if Josh was the best that she’s ever had, she said, “No, I don’t think that was it.” Snap!

But, please, just stop talking about it already.

Slash hooked up with Cypress Hill and Fergie to do a remake of the famous Guns ‘N Roses song, “Paradise City” and you can listen to it right here!

Surely, as you may know, we do not own the rights to this song, but you can listen to the butchering of a classic, after the jump! (continue reading…)

After the story broke last week that Josh Duhamel was cheating on Fergie with a random “exotic dancer”, it appears that she is more than just a little bit upset about it.

According to sources, Fergie Ferg had a nice, long talk with Josh about banging the local “talent”.

A snitch said, “He’s definitely in the doghouse. But Fergie’s hanging in there – at least for the time being. She understands show business marriages are not like other people’s. She was fully aware of Josh’s reputation as a ladies man when she hooked up with him.”

I would kick his butt to the curb!! Just sayin’.

Aww…how nice. Singer for the Black Eyed Peas, Fergie, says that she wants to be a role model. She has vowed to watch her mouth during the band’s shows, because she wants to be a better role model for younger girls.

She says that they are a family band, so she wants to keep it PG.

She says, “I wasn’t trying to be a role model with “The Dutchess”…Seeing little girls in the audience with their moms. It made me think about what I do onstage a little bit more. I had to watch my mouth, because it can be filthy.”

Kelly Clarkson did an interview for 99.9 Virgin Radio in Toronto, when the interviewer, Billie Holiday, asks her if she’s heard anything about the Will.I.Am/Perez stuff.

Kelly responds, “You know, I’ve only heard hearsay this morning in interviews. I wasn’t there last night, so I didn’t hear anything last night…but, yeah, somebody punched somebody.”

Billie says, “Yeah, Will.I.Am’s manager has just been charged now with assault for punching Perez. We had him on this morning – Perez.”

Kelly says, “I’ve gotta be honest with you, he’s going to get a lot of flowers. I’m not talking about Perez, I mean the manager. I’m not saying that violence is the answer, but what did you expect? You can’t say that much crap about people and not be able to take something.” (continue reading…)

Perez Hilton took to his official Twitter page last night to say that he was searching for a place to hang out with Lady Gaga that was safe. Afterward, he tweeted that he was assaulted by Black Eyed Peas member, Will.I.Am.

It turns out that Perez was confronted by Fergie for how he trashes her on his site. Later, at a club, he said that he was confronted by Will.I.Am and told to never write about their band again. He tweeted the above message that he got hit by Will.

It was found that he was actually assaulted by the Peas’ manager, Polo Molina.

Check out the fuzzy video of the incident: (continue reading…)

Fergie is on the cover of the newest issue of “Allure” magazine, showing off a cute two-piece bathing suit and some awful Photoshop skills for whoever edited her face.

In one of the photos, shown below, she is wearing a topless bathing suit as a tribute to William Claxton’s 1964 photo of Peggy Moffitt. (continue reading…)

Last night on “The Late Show with David Letterman”, the Black Eyed Peas performed their song, “I Gotta Feeling”.

I do not know what’s up with Fergie’s dress, she looks like she’s sporting a baby bump. Either that or she’s constantly looking bloated. And that part in that hairstyle isn’t doing her any favors, either. (continue reading…)
