1. Fergie Duhamel, an American singer and actress. She first achieved chart success as part of the hip hop group Black Eyed Peas. Her debut solo album, The Dutchess (2006), saw commercial success and spawned three Billboard Hot 100 number one singles: "London Bridge", "Glamorous" and "Big Girls Don't Cry". Although she vocally incorporates rapping into some of her performances, she does not consider herself a rapper.
Fergie was originally a member of the children's television series Kids Incorporated and the girl group Wild Orchid. In 2001, she left the group and in the subsequent year joined Black Eyed Peas. She worked with Black Eyed Peas on two albums before releasing her debut solo album, The Dutchess, in 2006. She continued her collaboration with Black Eyed Peas and released a further two albums with them. Her second solo album, Double Dutchess, was released in 2017.
Fergie has additionally appeared in various films, including Poseidon (2006), Grindhouse (2007) and Nine (2009). She launched her first fragrance, Outspoken, under Avon in May 2010 and has since released four more fragrances. Her footwear line, Fergie Footwear, was launched in 2009.

2. Robert ‘Fergie’ Ferguson is a Northern Irish DJ and techno producer from Larne, UK. He made a big comeback in 2021 following the rising popularity of the Techno Trance genre wich got him signed on Dutch record label Armada Music, since then he scored big hits played by many DJs worldwide such as ‘Alpha Centauri’, ‘Time’ and ‘Muzik’, all of them released on Armin van Buuren's very own record label and Armada Music's sublabel Armind.
A DJ since he was barely a teenager who became one of the first true superstar DJs, a BBC Radio 1 presenter for over four years, a Mixmag columnist, an award winning producer and remixer, a record label owner, an electronic dance-music pioneer – is there anything Fergie dj hasn’t ticked off the list? (Well there was that offer of a reality TV show which he turned down but that’s another story.)
Fergie dj has had many sounds, identities and even a brief name change over the course of a career that began over twenty years ago back home in Northern Ireland but has undoubtedly remained one of dance-music’s most controversial, most successful and most loved characters. 2012 marked the beginning of a new chapter of his incredible story when he left Europe and headed for a new home, the hedonistic party capital of the world: Las Vegas. With his most audacious move yet came a bold new sound and another chameleon-like reinvention to go with it. The three illustrious DJ residencies he now holds in America is unprecedented: at the iconic Wet Republic pool party, the HQ Nightclub in Atlantic City and from this Spring at the newly-opened Hakkasan Las Vegas Nightclub. Hakkasan Las Vegas is an ambitious concept that Fergie dj will be a central part of and will see him tailor his DJ performances to suit the unique capabilities of a venue which is set to become one of the top nightlife experiences in the world.

The chorus encourages everyone to join in: "Every city, every state, every country you know / All around the globe / Every city, every state, every country you know / This is how it goes."
The song's verses and chorus are a mix of rap and singing, with producer Mustard's signature beats creating a fresh sound. The second verse continues with Fergie's globetrotting, as she name-checks more cities: "When I roll down the window, let me know where you are / Atlanta, North South kick it 'lac / Texas grill, Cadillacs through Miami then back / To London, Jamaica, then France." The song's bridge gives a nod to California's legalization of marijuana, with the lyrics "We legalizing it / Yes you can join us now."
Overall, "L.A.LOVE" is an upbeat, catchy tribute to Fergie's roots and travels, with a pulse-pounding beat that encourages everyone to feel the music and join in.
