1984–2001: Early acting and Wild Orchid
Fergie studied dance and began providing voiceovers. She was the voice for Charlie Brown's sister Sally in two made-for-television Peanuts cartoons, It's Flashbeagle, Charlie Brown (1984) and Snoopy's Getting Married, Charlie Brown (1985), as well as on four episodes of The Charlie Brown and Snoopy Show. From 1984 to 1989, Fergie starred on the TV show Kids Incorporated and was the longest running cast member. She starred in the first six of the show's nine seasons. Additionally, she was a member of the female trio Wild Orchid, which she fronted with Stefanie Ridel and fellow Kids Incorporated star Renee Sandstrom. By 1992, the girls began meeting with record labels, but they could not get a recording contract. They eventually signed a music publishing deal with Sony Publishing before signing a record contract with RCA Records in 1994. Wild Orchid released their self-titled debut album in March 1997, which charted at No. 153 on the Billboard 200. In September 1998, they released their second album, Oxygen, which was a commercial failure, only selling 200,000 copies worldwide. From June 16 to August 28, 1999, they opened for Cher's Do You Believe? tour alongside Cyndi Lauper, which took them to 52 cities across the US and Canada. They completed a third album, which their record label declined to release, and Fergie left the group in September 2001. In 2006, Fergie told Entertainment Weekly that both frustrations with the band's image and personal drug problems led her to leave Wild Orchid.
2002–2005: Breakthrough with the Black Eyed Peas
2002–2005: Breakthrough with the Black Eyed Peas
• Illustration — Fergie with apl.de.ap of the Black Eyed Peas in 2005 The Black Eyed Peas were recording their third album, Elephunk (2003), when A&R Music Coordinator Dante Santiago asked will.i.am to invite Fergie to try out for the song "Shut Up". She secured the gig and instantly bonded with the trio, going on to record five additional songs on the album. The following spring, shortly before Elephunk came out, Interscope Records chairman Jimmy Iovine offered Fergie a permanent spot to take over vocal duties and fill the void left by background singer Kim Hill's departure in 2000. In a positive review of the Black Eyed Peas' newfound style, Rolling Stone noted that since 2002, when the group "hired a blond bombshell named Stacy 'Fergie' Ferguson and gave up their pursuit of backpack-rapper cred, they have made a kind of spiritual practice of recording futuristic songs — a total aesthetic commitment that extends from their garish wardrobes to their United Colors of Benetton worldview." From Elephunk came "Where Is the Love?", which became the Black Eyed Peas' first major hit: it peaked at number eight on the Billboard Hot 100 and topped the charts in several other countries. The album subsequently spawned "Shut Up", which topped the charts in many markets. The third single from the album, "Hey Mama", reached the top 10 in several European countries and later peaked at number twenty-three in the United States in 2004. Their next album, Monkey Business, was released on June 7, 2005; it debuted at number two on the US Billboard 200 albums chart. The album sold over 295,000 copies in its first week; it was later certified triple platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). Their next and last commercially released single from the album was "Pump It", which borrows much of its sound from "Misirlou", specifically Dick Dale's version; it peaked at number 8 in Australia and 18 in America. The album's first single, "Don't Phunk with My Heart", was a hit in the United States, reaching number three on the U.S. Hot 100 and earned them another Grammy for Best Rap Performance by a Duo or Group. "Don't Lie", the second single from the album, saw success on the U.S. Hot 100, reaching No. 14, although becoming somewhat more successful in the UK and Australia, reaching a peak of No.6 in both countries. "My Humps", another song from the album, immediately achieved commercial success in the US and fairly substantial radio play despite the sexually suggestive lyrics, reaching number three on the U.S. Hot 100 and number one in Australia, making it their fourth Australian number one single. However, many mocked the song for its lyrics. John Bush, writing for AllMusic, described it as "one of the most embarrassing rap performances of the new millennium". Later in 2005, the Black Eyed Peas toured with Gwen Stefani as a supporting act. In December 2005, they embarked on the "European Tour". In March 2006, the Black Eyed Peas toured again, as the featured headliner for the Honda Civic Tour.

2006–2008: The Dutchess and expansion
• Illustration — Fergie at the 2007 MuchMusic Video Awards Fergie's debut solo album, The Dutchess, was released in September 2006. It was initially recorded in 2005. The songs on the album are "from a seven-year period, but [Interscope CEO] Jimmy Iovine heard some [tracks] and was like, 'This is great, let's put it out'. One of the album's executive producers and fellow Black Eyed Peas member will.i.am stated that she was "writing about her personal struggles and casting her demons away and feminine power. [It's] her singing for young girls to be strong, and what they're going through in life, just growing up in this world of uncertainty." "London Bridge" was released as the album's lead single on July 18, 2006, to radio stations and on August 7, 2006, on the iTunes Store. The urban pop track caused controversy due to its double entendre title. It became a huge success, topping the Billboard Hot 100 (for three weeks) and New Zealand charts, while also reaching the top-ten in over twelve countries. The music video for the song features the Black Eyed Peas members as well as Fergie on the Tower Bridge, among other scenes. The following single, "Fergalicious", was released on October 23, 2006. The track, which features will.i.am, reached number two on the Billboard Hot 100, the top-five in Australia and New Zealand, although it peaked lower than "London Bridge" in Europe. Its music video features Fergie as Willy Wonka in a candy factory. "Glamorous" was released as the third single from the album, on February 20, 2007. The track, which features Ludacris, became another number-one single for Fergie in the United States, and also reached the top-ten in over seven countries. The fourth single, "Big Girls Don't Cry", was released on May 22, 2007. The ballad became a worldwide hit, topping the charts of ten countries, including Australia, Canada and the US; it was also the album's most successful single in Europe. It earned Fergie a nomination for the Grammy Award for Best Female Pop Vocal Performance. The music video for the song features American actor Milo Ventimiglia as her love interest. "Clumsy" was the fifth and final single from the album. It was released on September 25, 2007 and became a top-ten hit in five countries, including in Australia and the US, becoming her fifth consecutive top-five hit in the US. In 2007, the Black Eyed Peas embarked on the Black Blue & You World Tour and visited more than 20 countries. Fergie returned to acting in 2006, appearing as a lounge singer in the Poseidon remake. She later had supporting roles in 2007's Grindhouse and the 2009 musical film Nine. Fergie and other members of the cast of Nine won the Satellite Award for Best Cast – Motion Picture and received nominations for the Critics' Choice Movie Award for Best Acting Ensemble and Screen Actors Guild Award for Outstanding Performance by a Cast in a Motion Picture for their performances. On December 31, 2006, Fergie began hosting Dick Clark's New Year's Rockin' Eve on ABC for the pre-taped Hollywood segments after the New Year Ball came down in Times Square in New York City.

• Illustration — Fergie performing at Jacksonville Veterans Memorial Arena, 2010 In early 2009, Fergie and the group left A&M Records; both remained with Interscope Records. The group's fifth studio album, The E.N.D ("The Energy Never Dies"), was released on June 9, 2009. The overall sound of the album has a more electro hop beat rather than the usual hip pop/R&B feeling of their previous albums. In its first week, the album sold 304,000 copies and debuted at number 1 on the Billboard 200. They released "Boom Boom Pow" as the lead single from The E.N.D. in March 2009. It reached number one on the US charts and became the group's first chart topper. As of March 2011, the album has sold over 3,000,000 copies in the US alone. In France, the album spent 55 weeks inside of the top 10 with 11 at No. 1. They subsequently released a second single from the album, "I Gotta Feeling", which proved an even greater success than the first: it moved from number two behind "Boom Boom Pow" to the top spot in July, and stayed for 14 straight weeks at number one on the Billboard Hot 100, the longest stay at the top of 2009. The two hit singles back to back kept the Black Eyed Peas on the top for 26 consecutive weeks, from April 18 through October 16. Fergie bought a stake in the professional football team the Miami Dolphins in 2009, and has performed at the team's football games numerous times. "Meet Me Halfway" was released as the third single from the album in September 2009. The single reached number one in the UK and Australia. It also peaked at seven on the Billboard Hot 100. In October 2009, Fergie became a part owner of the Miami Dolphins. "Imma Be" was released as the fourth single; it reached number one on the Billboard Hot 100 for two weeks. "Rock That Body" was then released as the fifth single and reached number nine on the US charts. In September 2009, the group embarked on The E.N.D World Tour, visiting Japan, Thailand, Malaysia, Australia and New Zealand. In October 2009, they also were the opening acts for 5 concerts of the U2 360° Tour North America leg. The Black Eyed Peas performed at the 2010 Grammy Awards on January 31, 2010. They performed a mash-up of "Imma Be"/"I Gotta Feeling". They won three out of the six awards they were nominated for; they won awards for Best Pop Vocal Album for The E.N.D., Best Pop Vocal Performance by a Group for "I Gotta Feeling" and Best Short Form Video for "Boom Boom Pow". On July 27, 2010, the Black Eyed Peas released a remix album: The E.N.D. Summer 2010 Canadian Invasion Tour: Remix Collection. It was released on iTunes in Canada only, during the Canadian leg of The E.N.D. World Tour. It mostly features remixes of the singles taken from The E.N.D. It also features a remix of "Let's Get It Started" taken from Elephunk; the remix was also a bonus track on the deluxe edition of The E.N.D.. She launched her debut fragrance, Outspoken, under Avon in May 2010. Her performance of Gimme Shelter with Mick Jagger and U2 at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame 25th Anniversary in 2010 has over 13 million views. • Illustration — Fergie performing during Walmart Shareholders' Meeting in 2011 Their sixth studio album, The Beginning, was released on November 30, 2010, and received mixed reviews.

Artistry and media image
Artistry and media image
Fergie does not consider herself a rapper. In a 2006 interview with Rolling Stone, Fergie said of her vocal style: "I love imitating instruments, sometimes you can't understand what I'm saying because I'm going for an instrumental sound. It would ruin the sound if I pronunciated correctly." She cites Selena as her first influence. Roxanne Shante, Monie Love, Salt-N-Pepa, and J. J. Fad are artists she looks up to, and The Dutchess pays homage to them. In an interview with Entertainment Tonight, she said Beyoncé was a major influence for her album Double Dutchess. Other influences for her sophomore record are Amy Winehouse, Jhené Aiko, Ed Sheeran, Robert Plant, and Guns N' Roses. Fergie has received attention for her work with the Black Eyed Peas and for her solo music. Leah Greenblatt of Entertainment Weekly said that, with The Dutchess, "she's earned her Black Eyed independence – and perhaps even her new royal title." Retrospectively, Jason Lipshutz of Billboard called Fergie "a fearlessly individual female artist that had been hiding in plain sight. [...] Fergie deserves retroactive praise for an uncompromising first look". With the release of Double Dutchess, Allan Raible of ABC News wrote: "On her own, Fergie remains a versatile, exciting performer, further establishing her growing clout as an entertainer." Tara Joshi of The Guardian agreed, deeming Fergie "pop royalty". In a retrospective Paper article analyzing her image, Katherine Gillespie called her an "imperfect popstar" who "managed to rise above these manufactured circumstances and establish a unique onstage persona that relied on fashion just as much as music to get its point across. [...] She featured in Worst Dressed columns, but also inspired millions of 14-year-olds to spend their allowances on cargo pants. That's real influence." Artists who have been influenced by Fergie include Ariana Grande, Jack Harlow, Alessia Cara and Ava Max. Harlow's Billboard Hot 100 number one song "First Class", released in April 2022, samples Fergie's song "Glamorous".

Personal life
Personal life
Fergie is bisexual. She said "I've been in show business since I was a little girl, so [homosexuality] was always very normal to me. My mom taught me that every human is God's child. You have to live your own life and not judge other people. Love is a great thing." While performing with Wild Orchid, Fergie developed an addiction to crystal methamphetamine, which continued after her departure from the group in 2001. In September 2006, she called crystal "the hardest boyfriend I ever had to break up with". Fergie also stated "It's the drug that's addicting. But it's why you start doing it in the first place that's interesting. A lot of it was being a child actor; I learned to suppress feelings." She has stated in several interviews that she is an avid user of hypnotherapy, which she used to overcome her crystal meth addiction and to relax. Fergie began dating actor Josh Duhamel in September 2004, after she met him when she and the Black Eyed Peas filmed a cameo appearance for an episode of Duhamel's show Las Vegas. Fergie and Duhamel became engaged in December 2007; they married in a Catholic ceremony on January 10, 2009. They have one son. On September 14, 2017, Fergie and Duhamel announced that they had separated earlier that year. On June 1, 2019, the couple filed for divorce after two years of separation. The divorce was finalized in November 2019. In 2013, Fergie constructed a house in Solvang, California, which she sold in 2023. Her home in Brentwood, Los Angeles was saved from the January 2025 Southern California wildfires by firefighters.
