Latest Nominations
Ever felt like pissing on-stage? Well maybe stage fear, if you are a normal human being. But if you are a female lead vocalist in black-eyed peas, then maybe it is because of a few drinks before the show. If you thought that was Kim Hill, stop looking at your watch; it's dead, look at the calendar - WE ARE IN 2007.
Maybe her momma did tell her she should use the restroom after booze and before appearing live in front of a huge Audience. To err is human, they say, but to jump around with a brimful bladder is suicidal and funny, especially while performing. This Maxim's Hotty #39 is actually Stacy Ann Ferguson, though most popularly known as Fergie. After spells in Kids Incorporated and Great Pretenders, she has been the best female vocalist Black Eyed Peas could wish for with a scintillating voice that instigates something a bit sensual in every man and some women.
We have a reason for talking about women here for the now-solo-too artist makes a clean breast by saying "I have had lesbian experiences in the past. I won't say how many men I've had sex with - but I am a very sexual person." Maybe those who knew her from Glen A Wilson high School may find it hard to believe that someone with a strict catholic upbringing would revel so much as a rebel. But isn't it true that the more constrained a person is, the more they'd wanna break free? Still don't trust us? Check out her pics.

Honestly, not many cute looking celebs look younger than they are but Ariel Lin does. She has been playing lead roles ever since "True Love", her debut. She became a star through starring in "Secret Garden" and "Seventh Grade", steadily walking towards the hall of fame. Her pursuit of her theatre passion hasn't affected her studies. Anyone would love to sign a 'love contract' and wish 'it started with a kiss'. But both these were melodramas in Ariel's life, making Ariel one of the most wished-for Tele-celebs in Taiwan. Though the soapstar also acted in a few movies and tried on a singing hat, it didn't prove worthwhile. With Tokyo Juliet in hand, she is currently doing "The Legend of Condor Heroes".

American heartthrob Kanye Omari West was born in Atlanta, Georgia on June 8, 1977. A celebrated record producer and rapper West has given several hit albums including the College Dropout and Late Registration. He is also a proud owner of a record label a GOOD Music.
Kayne was brought up in Chicago, where his mother Dr. Donda West was a chair of the English Department at Chicago State University, after his parents divorce. After retirement, she serves as Kanye's manager. Kayne attended Columbia College Chicago, however dropped out early to get on with a career in music. He produced a number of hit singles for major hip hop/R&B artists, including Jay-Z, Eminem, Janet Jackson, Lupe Fiasco, The Game, Alicia Keys, Common and John Legend.
Typically, West's style of production associated pitched-up vocal samples that were normally from soul songs, using his own instruments and drums. His original song using vocal samples was a track from Jay-Z's The Dynasty: Roc La Familia "This Can't Be Life". His music was greatly acclaimed in Jay-Z's critically approved album The Blueprint, released on September 11, 2001.
West's claim to fame was release of his second album Late Registration on 30 August 2005. The reviews in Spin September 2005, suggested Late Registration was his indisputable triumph, somewhat comparable to West's ego. Created out of the help of producer samples, the compositions was a perfect blend of strings and other sounds.

She recognizes her family as her source of strict work ethic – she worked as a housemaid with her mother for eight summers. Having a working class was merit all through her professional career.
In one of her visits to Toronto, Furtado met Tallis Newkirk (Crazy Cheese) a member of hip-hop group. In 1996, she sung in their album Join the Ranks on the track "Waitin' 4 the Streets". Ultimately, she joined Newkirk to form Nelstar, a trip hop duo. One of her performances in Honey Jam an "all-female urban" talent show impressed singer Gerald Eaton (aka Jarvis Church).
