Fergie talks 'Idol Gives Back', 'Glee' and 'Lost' theories at Red Cross annual Red Tie Affair
Fergie just got back from tour with the Black-Eyed Peas and is gearing up for "Idol Gives Back" this week -- but she took a little time out of her busy schedule to stand by her man Josh Duhamel at the American Red Cross' annual Red Tie Affair on Saturday (Apr. 17).The Dish Rag caught up with Fergie on the red carpet, where she told us how proud she is of her charity-minded husband. Duhamel recently organized a Youth Run 4 Haiti in Santa Monica and has been a long-time supporter of the Red Cross.
We also asked Fergie to dish a little on what we can expect to see when the Black-Eyed Peas lend their name to a good cause on Wednesday's "Idol Gives Back" show. Turns out it's still in the works.
"We're working on it right now, to tell you the truth," she says with a laugh. "We've been on tour -- we just got home for a week."
As for another hit show she'd love to be on -- yep, you guessed it, "Glee." She told us she's a big fan of the show and thought the Madonna "Vogue" video was "amazing."
The gala, held each year at the Fairmont Miramar Hotel in Santa Monica, draws big-name stars who make it a point to give back. This year Jada Pinkett Smith got top honors for her "outstanding contributions to humanitarian efforts and her support of the American Red Cross." She arrived with proud hubby Will Smith on her arm, and the cast of her show "HawthoRNe" also came to show their support.
Other stars attending the charity event (which includes a sit-down dinner and live auction event) include Buzz Aldrin, Leeza Gibbons and "True Blood's" Aisha Hinds.

Fact Number One: Josh Duhamel is NOT an A-list actor. He is a D-list actor. His wife, Fergie, is A-list. Being married to Fergie doesn't increase his list level. Fact Number Two: If the name Josh Duhamel is in the movie that pretty much guarantees it will flop. Josh needs to concentrate on being a faithful husband to his wife instead of playing golf. Tiger Woods proved that point! By the way Josh or JD as you are called when you are cheating, your wife name is Fergie. Fact Number Three: If Fergie wants a real man--a man who actually will keep his vows, then she needs to marry me. There are good guys out there. Josh makes us look bad. Total idiot! Fact Number Four: The American Red Cross needs to raise it standards about who they put on its celebrity cabinet. Who else is on the cabinet? Tiger Woods, Jesse James, John Edwards?
When did they do fergilicous? Either I'm blanking or she's completely mistaken.
@say what: c'mon, Josh is B-List (not D-List). Unless the D stands for "Douche," then i guess you could say he's D-List....
I agree. Without Fergie Josh would not be invited to big events in Hollywood. And can he be any more stiff? He's a poser, and not nearly as hot as he thinks he is. He tends to believe his own press which shields him from the awful truth: that he is a horrible actor; all his movies he heads flop; he's not very good-looking.
j.c., you're right. Josh D thinks he is way more good-looking than he really is.
Looks like one person is having a lot of conversation with herself here! Josh is not D List at all, and he is super hot, like it or not. And Fergie is totally sweet and it's HER marriage, not yours. Really the internet is filled with crazy jealous haters who think they somehow should be feeling strongly about people they don't truly know all that well. And if we got rid of all the cheaters doing charity, no one would be left! Grow up
NONE of you know Josh or Fergie at all. He is a great guy and she is a sweetie! They are a nice couple and btw both are gorgeous in person. Oh umm.. say what... you are all over the place obsessed with hating him. And I would hardly call Transformers a flop would you? And he's back for the 3rd one. Sorry he probably didn't look at you at an appearance, but get over it!
Glee's Fergelicious episode hasn't aired yet.
Geez what's all the Josh hate, what pathetic jealous LOSERS!!
They're a cute and very down to earth couple and he cetainly does not believe his own press. By the way it's Josh who was invited to this and Fergie was there to support him.
