When it comes to women, none have been finer in 2010 than Black Eyed Peas vocalist Fergie. So says Billboard, anyway. The singer will collect the US music magazine’s Woman Of The Year Award at its Women In Music event in New York on 2 Dec.
Of the accolade, Fergie said: “I am humbled and excited to accept the Billboard Woman Of The Year Award. Being honoured by Billboard is a great career achievement”.Fergie is being given the award for singing on some rubbish songs that were quite popular for some reason and touring a lot, plus doing some charity work, some fashion stuff and a bit of acting.
Billboard editorial director Bill Werde, said: “Fergie took the music industry by storm the moment she came onto the scene, and we’re thrilled to celebrate her career achievements and incredible successes over the past year by honouring her with the Billboard Woman Of The Year Award. Fergie is a unique artist with great business savvy, style and an unbelievable dedication to philanthropic efforts, making her an inspiration to aspiring female artists everywhere”.
