Fug or Fab: Fergie

ruffles

Remember what Madonna wore to the Met Ball? (Hint: IT WAS CRAZY.) Ever thought, "I wonder how that would look if it were utterly de-crazied and kind of changed in a way that after I thought about it, I realized it wasn't exactly the same dress as much as it was a dress from the same basic family and designed by the same person, but I kind of thought it was the same dress before I had my coffee?" The answer hangs in Fergie's closet:

Look. It's been a CRAZY WEEK, right? I can't even imagine how crazed they all are at, like, Us Weekly right now, with all the shocking/tragic/unfortunate/surprising celebrity demises to cover in full. Frankly, Farrah Fawcett and MJ on the same day was too much for my synapses to fully absorb. Like....did that just happen? Because my brain feels swollen. I need more coffee. But regardless: I'm pretty sure I like this? She looks pretty, right? It's interesting, yes? It's kind of chic, no? Most importantly: IT'S FRIDAY, ISN'T IT? PLEASE TELL ME IT'S FRIDAY.

Fug or Fab: Fergie

If this is Fergie's idea of being "so 3008," then I think I'm okay with being "so 2000-and-late":

What's bothering me is the netting and boning in the middle. I feel like her shirt is baring its teeth at me. A big ol' thick belt might've done the same thing and felt less threatening, although if she got THAT at Home Depot along with all her other accessories, it probably would've had a hammer and a socket wrench hanging from it.

Still, the silhouette is kind of funky, so I'm open to the idea that I'm just unable to understand next-millennium fashion. Perhaps my foresight needs glasses to process great distances.

Fug or Fab: Fergie

sequins

God help me, but the edgy stylings of one Ms. Fergie Ferg Duhamel have been growing on me lately. I actually like this:

It KIND OF seems as if her midsection is being clamped by a gargantuan hair accessory, but somehow she makes it look good. And the underlying dress is sexy-short but not gynecological, and it has shape without being overly poofy and twee. (The bodice line is not actually crooked; it's just the angle at which she's standing.) I might even be starting to like the darker hair -- it makes her coloring pop out in an exotic way. I mean, am I secretly hitting the bottle in my sleep, shuffling in a half-dream-state to the bar and sticking a bendy straw inside my flask of tequila? Or is she looking kind of hot?

Wait, before you answer, check out another outfit of hers that's giving me a bit more pause:

Fug or Fab: Fergie

blue,
great shoes

I am still not wholly on board with Fergie Ferg's darker hair. Obviously, it's a person's prerogative to do whatever she wants to her hair -- hence my dangerous and mistaken flirtation with Sun-In circa 1989-- but while I think I am sort of used to this look on her now, and the blonde was a mistake on my own part, I kind of prefer her with a sunnier do. That being said, let's talk about the dress:

Okay, before the dress: Yes, I see that her toes are hanging off the end of her shoe. Every time that happens, we get e-mails from people wondering why we haven't mentioned that, and it is because when you have a really high heel and you stand in one place for a long time -- as for a press opportunity like this -- your foot gets sweaty and you sort of slide down the arch of the shoe and this happens. Ain't nothing she can do about it in the moment, so it's doesn't seem fair to ding her for it. There we go! A much-asked question answered. Those ARE some wicked shoes, though. NOW, let's talk about the dress. Except for how I'm tired already from typing all this blah blah about sweaty feet and Sun-In and yadda yadda yadda.

When I started surfing through Fergie photos, I thought this was going to be as weird as it got with her today:

I really ought to know better. Hair that looks like it was woven from furniture sold at Pier 1 Imports? That's nothing to Miss Fergie Ferg. So of course she had something else to drop on us:

American Fugdol

I managed to polish off last night's two-hour Idol finale in about 20 minutes, so chock-a-block was it of cringe-worthy filler. In fact, the only performance I stopped on for longer than ten seconds was the one involving Queen; what can I say, I was practically raised on Queen music. And I think the timing of them dumping Paul Rodgers as a temporary front-man gels perfectly with Adam Lambert losing, so they can just plug him in there and go back on tour. Right? I mean, RIGHT? I've been saying all along he belongs in the We Will Rock You cast but being in ACTUAL Queen would be even better.

Seriously: The dude sang with Kiss and had to wear shoulder cages.

[Photo: Look, my camera had been drinking. Yes, that's it. Drinking.]

And he pulled them off with gusto. I may not be the biggest fan of Lambert's actual voice, but he certainly knows how to perform music I am interested to WATCH, if not solely HEAR. Adam stood next to Gene Simmons, who was wearing spiked silver armor, and held his own in studded half-globes that look like the frame around which someone's costume on The Tudors is about to be built. Were Freddie Mercury here, he'd be applauding and then asking Adam if he wants to borrow any of his old jumpsuits.

Speaking of jumpsuits:

FERGIE: Listen, Taylor, we should talk.

TAYLOR: Can't talk. Need to look sultry.

FERGIE: Honey, listen. I'm wearing a harness. You see that, right?

TAYLOR: Sure.

FERGIE: A harness, AND a really long fake braid that looks like someone cut off a horse tail and sewed it to my bun.

TAYLOR: Whatever.

FERGIE: But nobody is going to care. You know why? Because of you. Because of THIS:

Aw, come on Fergie Ferg. How bad could it be?

Although...yeah, that IS a lot of inner thigh. But, as I recently read in one of the many many many many intellectually stimulating celebrity-centric periodicals to which I subscribe, you've got great legs! So good for you! Come on, sugar -- let's see the rest of the outfit!

My Lovely Lady Fugs

Fug file:

So...does this glum look mean that marriage isn't agreeing with Fergie Ferg?

The dress is fine, albeit bizarrely crunched up in seemingly random places. The shoes, I'm sure, cost some wicked ridiculous amount, despite essentially being kind of hideous and involving the use of sweatbands for ankle straps, but I can take a lot of stupidity in a shoe, for some reason. Perhaps because they're so small and far away from my face. But speaking of faces: girl, this hair is not good with yours. Don't get upset. I can't do the super straight, flat-ironed, center part thing, either. It makes me look like my face is the size of the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man's. But suddenly, you're bearing a weird resemblance to Priscilla Presley, and while she was once a beautiful woman, my guess is that's not exactly what you're going for. What I'm saying, princess, is that you need a little softness around ye olde facial area. And maybe a smile: I'm concerned that your crabby visage here is going to show up in a tabloid under the headline, "Fergie And Josh: Honeymoon PAIN," after which the magazine will propose that you guys are on the autobahn to splitsville. When really maybe you just forgot to set the TiVo for Intern George's Triumphant Return to ER. That'd make anyone cranky.

First of all, we'd like to extend a public statement to Fergie: Girl, we did not think you and Duhamel would actually end up actually getting actually married. Surely you can understand this. It seemed like you were engaged forever! In Hollywood, that totally means things are fizzling out and you haven't decided how to break it to your publicist yet. But you two crazy kids managed to pull it out, and he's HOT and seems like a nice dude (I loved him on AMC). So, way to go. We hope you two lovebirds make it. Now, let's talk about your outfit:

From what I can understand, you were not attending a party at which the dress code was "Lacy Flapper." However, you look kind of cute as the aforementioned lacy flapper, although I hate the bow. And it's rather short. Although you have nice stems, as they say in Clueless. But the whole thing is kind of corny. But if a girl can't...oh FORGET IT. I can't decide.
