Fergie is no longer only model in the Black Eyed Peas, as will.i.am took to the runway as part of Paris’s Fashion Week last night. The forgetful singer channeled Derek Zoolander at the Rynshu Menswear show, sporting this season’s latest trend The Skeleton Look. The Nothing But The Beat contributor recently teamed up with the Japanese clothing designer for a line called (creatively enough) Rynshu x Will.i.am. Check out the deep lyricist as he does his little thing on the catwalk and tell us what you think of his designer duds. More »
The Black Eyed Peas refused to let a little thunder and lightning stop their party in Central Park last night. What was meant to be a benefit show for 80,000 became an intimate backstage party for a mere 80 people due to inclement weater. “Chase and Robin Hood [foundation] will not let the rain and storm break our spirit…this is love,” the (sometimes forgetful) will.i.am tweeted last night. Check out Fergie, apl.de.ap, Natasha Bedingfield and LL Cool J as they showed a handful of devoted fans the time of their lives. More »
We’ve got a feeling that the Black Eyed Peas are ready and rearing to go for their halftime show this Super Bowl Sunday. At their press conference in Dallas today, Fergie, Taboo and will.i.am expressed their excitement for the highly televised gig—apl.de.ap even got a special halftime haircut, shaving “BEP XLV” into his head. The BEP wouldn’t reveal what songs they would be performing, but we’re sure it will have that special boom boom pow. Perhaps the Grammy winners will change the classic Dirty Dancing theme once more—“I’ve Had The Halftime Of My Life”, anyone? More »
At 2am Usher tweeted, “LA thank you for all the love tonite, #OMGTour shut down Staples Centers”, clearly still on an adrenaline rush from his mind-blowing concert in Los Angeles on Thursday. As if pyronecnics, a floating and rotating stage and the R & B crooner’s killer dance moves weren’t enough to make the entire arena say, “Oh my gosh!“, the evening included Trey Songz (with special guest Drake) and Justin Bieber’s BFF also brought on will.i.am for a surprise performance. Check out the highlights from last night to feel like you were in the front row. More »
Perez Hilton has sued Black Eyed Peas manager Polo Molino for battery and–please make sure you aren’t drinking anything when you read this–“infliction of emotional distress” following their altercation after the MuchMusic Video Awards on Sunday night in Toronto. You would think the roffles brought by the blowhardy blogger being able to dish out “emotional distress” as his stock in trade, only to Twitter for the wahhhmbulance when he’s forced to take it (from all sides) would be enough for a news item, wouldn’t you? But thanks to us living in The Age Of Neverending Absurdity, it gets better: The former Mario Lavandiera also wants to defend himself as a crusader for free speech! Because he’s always so accepting of others who he disagrees with, right? His lawyer’s statement after the jump. More »
