Fergie Discusses Kicking Meth, Thinking Outside the Bun
Fergie of the Black Eyed Peas singer has a solo album, The Dutchess, dropping tomorrow and already has a number one hit with her single “London Bridge.” (Is it annoying? Is it catchy? -I say annoying BTW)
The 31-year-old singer recently gave an interview to the NYC gay paper Homo Xtra, the self-proclaimed “Totally Biased, Politically Incorrect Party Paper,” in which she talks about being on the dole, on drugs, and even has some choice words for our ilk. She asks of bloggers, “What are you doing other than sitting there behind your computers and talking sh-t about people?” Yeah, that’s basically it.
Highlights from the interview below.
On meth:
“In my experience, ecstasy led to crystal meth, and I just think that people don’t know how addictive that drug is. It’s so cunning because it’s such a fun drug at first. You lose weight and look great for a while, but I don’t care if it takes six months or five years, it will creep up on you. Don’t be fooled and think you’re special.”
On bloggers and “internet haters”:
“I just think, ‘Wow, I’ve worked so hard for this, but what are you doing other than sitting there behind your computers and talking shit about people?’ If people don’t like me, fine, but don’t dis people if you’re not getting off your ass and doing something about your own life.”
On her vices:
“I definitely am still that girl who gets home and goes straight to Jack in the Box or Taco Bell right after I land at the airport.”
On toning her bod regularly at the gym:
“If I don’t, it’s not so Fergalicious.”
On keeping it real:
“I was collecting unemployment when I joined Black Eyed Peas, so I really appreciate the worth of things.”
On her one year anniversary with boyfriend Josh Duhamel:
“We’ll probably go to a nice dinner, and I don’t know if we want to do much else. I think we’ll be anxious to get back home!”
On rumors the group is breaking up:
“We’re not breaking up! We say it at every show because it’s always the question.”
