A child actress from California, Fergie — born Stacy Ann Ferguson— began her career as a member of the TV series Kids Incorporated, as well as a voice-over actor for various Peanuts TV specials. In the 90s, Fergie joined Wild Orchid, an all-female teen-pop trio, which issued two albums and completed an unreleased third. In 2003, she appeared on her first album with the Black Eyed Peas, a L.A. party-rap group about to make the leap from underground favorites to the mainstream. Fergie performed on several tracks from Elephunk, which spawned the hits “Hey Mama,” “Where Is the Love,” and “Let’s Get It Started.” Fergie’s presence was even more heavily felt on 2005’s Monkey Business, the album that spawned “My Humps,” which won the 2007 Grammy. Her fame skyrocketed after the 2006 release of her debut solo album, The Dutchess, which spun off a number of hits, including Grammy-nominated power ballad “Big Girls Don’t Cry,” “Glamorous,” “Fergalicious,” “Clumsy” and “London Bridge.” In 2016, she released Double Dutchess. Fergie continues to dance and sing before audiences everywhere.
