Is this why people don't like Fergie?

[SparklingWaves]

This link shows distinctive changes in Fergie's appearance. I think one of the dates is off.

ohnotheydidnt: Fergie through the years

In this article, she denies having anything done.

BLACK EYED PEAS - FERGIE CONSIDERS PLASTIC SURGERY

I really don't know a thing about her. I have noticed her appearance has changed just like many other people in Hollywood, so I was wondering.

Why is it that people dislike her? I know many stars don't tell what all they had done to their faces. Is it, because she lied?

Awhile back, the vote for her for Viva Glam was poor. Nevertheless, she is on the promo now.

To be honest, they could have had a pretty mannequin on Viva Glam and captured my attention more. I don't have anything against her or for her. I am totally neutral about her.

Note: If you don't want to put your comment here, feel free to PM me. I'm really interested in what people have to say. Thanks

People don't like her because it's popular to not like her.

Fergie's not any different than the promo models MAC has had in the past for VG, she's just the one that came on when it was cool for the masses to dislike her.

 

[Hilly]

I like her a lot. I don't think she has had work done. She just changed her makeup, style, whatever. If you put my pic up through the years, I can guarantee that I look different.

 

[prettysecrets]

I think almost every celebrity has had SOMETHING done,so I can't see that as a reason why someone wouldn't like her. I guess I'm neutral about her as well.

 

[sharkbytes]

eh, I don't mind Fergie. She gets a lot of flack for her appearance, and most of it is unjustified. Her eyes are gorgeous, and she has lovely skin. If anyone saw a timeline of my various looks (some of which were clearly not a good idea) i'd be mortified.

 

[Shimmer]

Seriously. I show my husband pictures from 10 or 12 years ago, and he says it doesn't look like the same person.

I know, right?! I had purple hair in high school, and I wore enough eyeliner to sink a ship. I really can't be judging Fergie, lol.

 

[MiCHiE]

She's arrived. Once you reach that level of stardom where you're on top, there's nothing else left to do but fall in people's eyes.

 

[KittieSparkles]

I personally like Fergie. I like what she brought to BEP. Looking at her "through the years pictures" I do not think she had surgery. What I see is that she lost alot of weight, changed her make-up, changed her hair and she looks older. Also her change in look can be from all the drugs she used to be on, it does do that to people. But if she did have plastic surgery I do not see why it would be a reason to dislike her, is her business. Right?

 

[AppleDiva]

IMO, her look does not matter to me as she does not use her talent to its potential. Sometimes she reminds me of Nelly Furtado, who does what she does b.c she does not have the dynamic voice as Fergie. (sidebar: I have heard Nelly sing a duet with Charlotte Church and she sounded pretty good) The lyrical quality of her songs are quite poor, thus reinforcing my negative feelings toward her.

Think about it what if Aretha Franklin or Celine Dion (had to mix it up), did not give their best on every song they sang. It would be totally shameful.

 

[Simply Elegant]

I just really don't like her music and think someone else would be more suitable.

 

[Shimmer]

Why is she unsuitable?

What about RuPaul's lifestyle? Christina's 'drrrty' years? Lisa Marie's Scientology? Dita's job? I mean, really, this particular line hasn't shied from being fronted by controversial people over the years, but the vein that all of the representatives have shared is that they've overcome something in their lives.

 

[redambition]

i've never liked her because i think she was a bad choice as an addition to BEP.

and to hear her murder "weekends" on stage - well, that just cemented my dislike.

 

[Divinity]

I think my biggest beef with her is that I don't care for HER music or her voice. She was fine in BEP, but on her own, eh. I just don't think she is that big of a deal and I'm not in dislike because the masses are or because it's popular. I just don't think she is unique at all.

 

[SparklingWaves]

It would be very interesting to know why these people were chosen. Some of them are popular to some people and some are not.

Shimmer, what did each of them overcome. I know that I am forgetting some, because I don't know their names.


Elton John - drugs
Lisa Marie - drugs
Fergie - drugs
Dita - ?
Christina - ?
RuPaul - ?
Pam Anderson - ?
Was Boy George on one of the campaigns? - drugs

 

[Shimmer]

Pamela Anderson = Hep C and she's a major coke head
Dita's a stripper. There's no putting any niceties on it to make it sound better, she's a stripper.
Christina = her dad was an abusive SOB, and she went through a LOT as a child.
RuPaul = that *should be* fairly obvious.

 

[VDUB*BELLA]

I dont like her because she gets this

heheheh seriously though

The girl can sing, has a wikkid sense of style, sick body... I dont mind her at all. I saw her live and she was awesome.

Not too psyched about her 'purse collection' but for the most part she is a marketing machine.

 

[magmunnen]

That picture from 2001 does´nt even look like her..
I have nothing against her, it takes alot of afford to become a celebrety nowdays.

I think the pattern they all share: Sex, Drugs, Rock n' Roll!!

I am on the fence about Fergie...but I do think that she turned out beautifully in the VG ads and that hopefully she will be able to sell a ton of the LE l/g to support the MAC Aids Fund!! To me, that's what matters most--public awareness.

As for the plastic surgery, almost everyone in the entertainment industry has gotten something done, little 'tweaks' here and there. To me, that's nothing to hate them for, it's their face not mine

. I think it's ok, just as long as you know when to say when (MJ and Joan Rivers, anyone? Lol).

Who couldn't like Fergie?

She was on kids incorporated!
