I will full-on admit that I like Fergie. Well, I have a soft spot for her. She fully embraces her trannydom, she's always workin' on her fitness, she can do a cartwheel and sing at the same time, she once peed her pants in public and was like 'whatevs,' and her hair is usually fun.
Therefore, I'm NOT at all ashamed to be having thoughts about Fergie's "Amplify" heels. They're bold and transrageous, just like their namesake.
Have you seen any commercials for the movie Nine? It looks incredible. Kate Hudson! Penelope Cruz! Fergie! Nicole Kidman! A MUSICAL!!! I can't wait! Check out the three new posters just released ... Nine opens nationwide on Dec. 25.
Check out the two new production stills for the upcoming musical movie NINE, directed by Rob Marshall and starring Academy Award winners Daniel Day Lewis, Judi Dench, Marion Cotillard, Nicole Kidman, Penelope Cruz, Sophia Loren along with Kate Hudson and Stacy “Fergie” Ferguson. NINE opens in theaters on November 25, 2009.
Honestly, I'm like meh about Fergie. Like, live your life Fergs, I'll live mine, best of luck, whatevs. But I DO EFFING LOVE these black and orange patent Jimmy Choos she just wore to the March of Dimes 34th Annual Beauty Ball in NYC the other night.
IF I could afford Jimmy Choos (I cannot), I'd wear these with some sort of black one-piece jumpsuit, sorta similar to this Free People one, perhaps:
Pick up the new issue of US Weekly to get your fill of Fergie and Josh Duhamel's wedding deets and pics! The bride (in Dolce & Gabbana) and groom look lovely! Calling the event "magical, ethereal," the two tied the knot this past Saturday at a vineyard in Malibu.
Although Wednesday's American Idol won't be saying goodbye to another contestant, (the results will be shown Thursday night) they will be airing their Idol Gives Back show for the second year in a row. The fundraiser will be raising money for both U.S. and international charities and will feature big stars like Brad Pitt, Hollywood it-couple David and Victoria Beckham, Miley Cyrus, and former Idol winners Carrie Underwood and Jordin Sparks. I recommend having a box of kleenex handy as the show will also include heartfelt stories informing people firsthand on how this special will be making a difference in the lives of many.

Carrie Underwood is a gorgeous girl, but she looks soooo Stepford. Someone PLEASE condition her hair! Please! It's aging her. And this Zuhair Murad dress is gorgeous, but IMO, it just takes the floral fad WAY too far.
Speaking of hair don'ts -- Oy. Beyonce, girl. Fix. Your. Hair. This ice capades gown created some total weird-ass boob dysmorphia, and the hair looked SO frazzled.
I expected more from Rihanna. Don't get me wrong, she almost always looks like a living doll, but in this blue Zac Posen piece? I dunno, dawg.Ques que ce "phoned in"?
With performances by Beyonce and Tina Turner, Rihanna, Kanye's emotional tribute to his "mama," and Amy Winehouse's much-anticipated (via-satellite) performance, (not to mention her shout-out to incarcerated hubby Blake) the Grammys were definitely something to tune into last night.
Although not present in L.A., but rather in her hometown of London, Winehouse almost had a clean sweep, winning five out of the six awards she was nominated for, including record of the year, song of the year, and best new artist.
Kanye dominated the Grammys as well, winning four awards, including best rap album and best rap solo performance. Not only did he pay tribute to his late mother Donda in song, but also spoke to her in his acceptance speech.
Carrie Underwood went home with two awards, best female vocal performance and best country song for "Before He Cheats" and Alicia Keys, who opened the show singing with a virtual Frank Sinatra, took home the prize for best R&B song for "No One" as well as best female R&B vocal performance.
The last award of the night was given to the very surprised jazz artist Herbie Hancock for album of the year, beating out both Winehouse and West.
Other winners included: Best male pop vocal performance: Justin Timberlake Producer of the year, non-classical: Mark Ronson Best Pop performance by a duo or group with vocals: Maroon 5 Best rock album: Foo Fighters Best contemporary R&B album: Ne-Yo Best rap/sung collaboration: "Umbrella," Rihanna featuring Jay-Z Best male country vocal performance: Keith Urban Best country album: "These Days," Vince Gill
