TheFergieFerg: it's been a dream of mine since i was seven years old

TheFergieFerg: and finally now it feels right

Brendaninmusic: was it nerve-wracking being on your own for the first time??

TheFergieFerg: it is sometimes when i have to perform by myself

TheFergieFerg: because i have to own the stage

Brendaninmusic: so you perform your own songs on the peas tour. how does the audience react??

TheFergieFerg: so far people have been so wonderful to me

TheFergieFerg: 'London Bridge' is such a hype live song

Brendaninmusic: that song was barely out before it hit number one. did it shock you how big it hit??

TheFergieFerg: yes because i had been waiting so long to release something on my own and then it came out and things just went so fast

Brendaninmusic: and of course London Bridge is my ringtone!

TheFergieFerg: ooh you have a sensitive side

TheFergieFerg: Big Girls Don't Cry was written before i was in the black eyed peas

TheFergieFerg: it's about independence

TheFergieFerg: and All That I've Got is about loving someone for inner beauty

TheFergieFerg: all of my songs on the Dutchess are true stories

Brendaninmusic: well great job ! haha!

TheFergieFerg: you never forget the truth

Brendaninmusic: so you've definitely got the inner beauty down

Brendaninmusic: but there's no denying the outer

Brendaninmusic: you've been on maxim's sexiest list, your "humps" were everywhere

Brendaninmusic: is that crazy for you??

TheFergieFerg: he and i had fun doing that song

TheFergieFerg: we are from the same generation of music

Brendaninmusic: did it almost feel like cheating when you were doing your own stuff with him?

TheFergieFerg: no because this is a plan i had in action before i even joined the band

Brendaninmusic: and you seem to be doin this solo thing a bit different than justin, beyonce etc...

TheFergieFerg: thank you

Brendaninmusic: what else do you have planned?

TheFergieFerg: a day off

Brendaninmusic: haha what would you do with that day off??

TheFergieFerg: absolutely nothing

Brendaninmusic: sounds like a nice day off!!

TheFergieFerg: exactly!

Brendaninmusic: in Glamorous, you talk a lot about your "normal" life

Brendaninmusic: your mustang, taco bell

TheFergieFerg: it's about the dichotomy of the way i grew up and the life i'm living now

TheFergieFerg: i'm still the same girl who isn't moved out of mom's yet

TheFergieFerg: i get to stay in these lavish hotels etc.

TheFergieFerg: i still go directly from the airport to jack in the box or taco bell or dell taco because they are my comfort foods

TheFergieFerg: i had that mustang for over 12 years

Brendaninmusic: that's crazy. i assume you've since upgraded ;)

Brendaninmusic: what's your craziest purchase since you hit it big?

TheFergieFerg: i've just started buying expensive bags

TheFergieFerg: like the fendi b bag

TheFergieFerg: and a brand new big burberry with a gold chain

TheFergieFerg: i wouldn't buy things like that before because it wasn't realistic

Brendaninmusic: dream come true??

TheFergieFerg: definitely :-)

Brendaninmusic: nice!

TheFergieFerg: :-*

Brendaninmusic: well, we know you're a busy girl

TheFergieFerg: thanks for chatting me

Brendaninmusic: thank YOU so much!

Brendaninmusic: congrats on all the success!!!
