Jul 2 2007Fergie completely sells out

fergie-sunglasses.jpg

Fergie has become the first singer to use product placement and is being paid a ridiculous $4 million by Candie's to promote their clothing line in her songs. An executive at Interscope says:

"With record sales in decline, you must find novel ways to make money out of the music. The trick is to make the brand part of the song so that it slips down easily rather than chokes the fan. Candie's will have no say over exactly what Fergie will sing, or when. Fergie does not sing jingles so it will have to work unobtrusively in the song."

Fergie? Really? They want Fergie to promote their clothing line? Maybe they should sit back and think about this a little longer. Why not just ask a bear in a clown outfit to promote their clothes? Or my four-year-old niece? She puts on garbage sometimes. Why not ask her?

*shudder*

That is one ugly dude.

Almost first! I feel so cool.

She's a bit mannish....

well, she already promoted Dolce & Gabbanda, Fendi and NaDonna...

So tired of her.

Is your four year old niece hot?

Mind introducing her to me?

Ironically enough, I think your four year old niece could come up with more creative and fresh blog content, as well.

She sold out, that's just not...oh wait, Fergie, right? Never mind.

lol.

fergie's a joke. biggest stefani wannabe in the biz.

Teenaged girls should be temporarily banned from buying music for a few years until things get back to normal.

Actually Korn was sponsored by Adidas, the detones by Puma, and the Teriyaki Boyz are sponsored by Bape.

Umm...rappers and booze brands (Alizé, Seagrams, Cristal, etc., have been doing it for years. Shoes, you say? Two words...'My Adidas'. Nothing new here.

I must object to this, if only because my name is Candice. Any song containing the word "candy" gets sung at me incessantly when it's new, and pops up every now and then to haunt me when it's old. I can only assume the same for a song with "Candie's" in it.

She should change her name to "Fugly".....

"I Want My MTV"
Dire Straits - 1985 - Money For Nothing

Hey Smirkin' Judas.

It's Donna Karan.
Not NaDonna.

I really hate her sunglasses. They do absolutely NOTHING to flatter her face.

Then again, not much does.

hey Smirkin Judas,

also, its not Gabbanda... its Gabbana. welcome to 2007.

Hey Linds,
tell that to azlyrics.com, not me.

that's all

yes she ugly, but this is not new she been doing candies ads for months now and it has actually made me like candies less than before, not that i'd even wear that cheap shit anyway

holla,
that was a typo, jesus tits people. It's actually "holler," Welcome to the English language.

she is the first? Blink-182 was endorsed and paid by Hurley back in 2000 and launched the trend of product placement in bands...nothing new here

She's actually going to mention Candies IN THE SONGS! Not just be sponsored by them. And it will probably work, teenaged girls are generally stupid (as are teenaged boys). It's going to start a new trend. Like above poster said though, rappers have been doing it, I don't know if they were getting paid though. Run-DMC never got paid by Adidas as far as I know.

It's the incredible man looking woman... FERGUS!
I mean Fergi..
I mean... what?

Me confusi.

My people are saying Fergie was already negotiating with Depends, but she decided it may alienate her 8 to 13 year old target market.

SHE LOOKS LIKE A WALKING STD.

Fergie used to be SO pretty before her meth addiction.

Never do drugs kids, that stuff turns you into that.

11: The Teriyaki Boyz's DJ -owns- Bape. Not quite the same.

But yeah, product placement is all over in songs. At least Ferg' has the fore-thought to be paid for it.

What about the song "Air Force Ones"?

i hate this shit. this is why people don't respect musicians anymore. did you know that bach was imprisoned for not wanting to do product placement?

/Fergie zuckz azz....she an
ugly bitch..shez hiding something
under thoze glazzez...

Not only did she sell out, but her boyfriend josh also sold his home Cali. Check it out at canyon-news.com

This would only be bad if she actually had any integrity.

Candies. Now those are real G-L-A-M-O-R-O-U-S. Fergie is trash with cash, that's why she gets so excited about drinking champayyaign up in the sky.

Hey, this is a good thing!
I mean...they didn't want to sell any more clothes or shoes, right...?

gwen put her l.a.m.b. shit in all her songs. but i guess she started that line. but still.

What is John Duhamel thinking...

Four, tres, two, uno


Listen up ya'll, 'cause this is it
The meth that I'm smoking is delicious


Fergalicious definition make them boys go loco
They want a meth-head so they get their pleasures from my photo.
You could see me, you can't squeeze me.
I sure am easy, I look real sleazy.
I got reasons why I suck 'em.
Only for the meth will I fuck 'em.


Fergalicious (meth addicted)
But I'm very promiscuous.
And if you was suspicious,
All that shit is methalicious.
I blow kisses (mmmwwahhh)
I fuck them boys for rock, rock.
And they be lining down the block just to smoke what I got (four, tres, two, uno)


Meth addicted (it's hot, hot)
Meth addicted (I fuck them boys for rock, rock)
Meth addicted (they wanna taste of what I got)
I'm Fergalicious (n-n-n-n-n-nasty, nasty)

This is the first time??? Are you kidding me here? Do you research anything, or just type?

A sellout? This coming from a guy who has more ads on his page than content. Nice

Fergie is just one more Halloween costume for the gay guys but, come on, they needed one - Cher is getting too old. The young Halloweenies will be wearing Candies and saying "I'm Fergalicious" - which is way more appealing than Fergie saying it.

She's so goddamn manly. It burns.

#4

If I was any of those clothes companies I would sue her for using my brand, fuck.

@17
The only sunglasses that would flatter her face would be ones that completely cover it.

Does Candie's make nooses? I'd like to see her model one.

They look like those glasses you wear when you cut wood, uh..safety goggles? As for Candies, it suits her fine - cheap & a little tacky. Wearing Candies, much like listening to her music - sometimes you do it, but you dont want anyone to know! LOL

#32=I'd zell my home to
if it sat in California..
3 earthquakez a day..U
fuckerz R nutz to live there.

Fergie could be someonez boyfriend.
§↨☻♠→

#41 yeah good point. Except this is the internet and this sight is free and the guy running it isn't making millions off record sales, appearances, publishing and concerts.

So actually stupid fucking point moron.

Oh 38, you make me giggle. How long did that take you?

Come on, you have to give her some credit. She taught millions of trailer trash girls and UK chav girls how to spell 'glamorous'

She also updated the old, boring, totally unsexy, Bonnie and Clyde, just look how beautiful she looks as her whole face seems to widen with her fish like smile.

Tranny clown!

I don't blame her one bit. She's just doing the same as anyone else would do in that position, including everyone reading this crap. Get the money! Anyway, she's not much to look at but I sadly admit I find her songs catchy.

Fergie is the perfect choice, as long as the clothing line is called "Weathered Hooker With a Dried Up Vagina."

52- hahahhahahaahahalfdifhlzsdijfahha

OK, seriously Fish, first singer to use product placement?? Have you ever listened to pop music before?

Her music is as lovely as her face.

I just signed a contract with Toughskins to rep them in my joints.

"grey goose got the club feelin loose"

lame even then...

Where did she get a paid of 858 CAZALS?!?! I'm going to beat her up and steal those glasses.

I got sponsored by trojans to mention them in my "Do it from the back" song I wrote for Mario. It'll be a hit..

You guys are so "superficial" Get a life!

ok, I'll admit:
I do like zome of
her zongz..but thoze
big glazzez and her
big face lookz manly
§☺☻☻☻ (☺)↓£♦♪♦

She ought to get into talks with Halloween mask companies to license her face. Because, ye gods.

get thee to a lipoderm surgeon stat, you fat eyed pee

She is such a moose.

She has a pair of Candies underwear hanging on the close line in her "Big girls don't cry" video.

#38: "I fuck them boys for rock, rock.
And they be lining down the block just to smoke what I got" (four, tres, two, uno)

LOL!

This ugly American girl looks like that Eva girl and both of them are married to Negros. They must really be hard up to marry a black person.

"Fergie does not sing jingles so it will have to work unobtrusively in the song."

Yet I've been seeing that idiotic commercial that uses Glamorous on tv for months. Never should've left BEP, her solo carreer is a joke.

it looks like tom beringer got a miniature windshield stuck to his face

you guys ,you are very specially ,ilove ya

you all our are so shallow
