Before the Black Eyed Peas and Wild Orchid, Fergie was hanging with “Kids Incorporated” — and the “Peanuts” gang.

“I’ve done voiceovers all my life,” Stacy “Fergie” Ferguson revealed recently of her less-documented show-business experience. “I was Sally for two years and then Lucy for one year, amongst other characters. I like to play with different voices, which is what I’m having a lot of fun doing on this record.”

This record would be The Dutchess, the debut solo album that the 31-year-old singer has dreamed about since childhood.

I just finished watching Fergie perform “London Bridge” on the season finale of “So You Think You Can Dance” tonight and she killed it! I hope to be able to post a video of her performance later tonight, so check back!

So what exactly does it mean if your “London Bridge wanna go down”?

“There are a couple things that you could relate with that title, but I’m just going to leave it to people’s imagination,” Fergie said of her possibly promiscuous hit single, “London Bridge.” “And that’s all I’m going to say about that.”

Apparently music fans have no problem with ambiguity, as the red-hot track has climbed to #1 on the Hot 100 in just three weeks, the second fastest ascent in Billboard history. (Amusingly enough, it knocked out Nelly Furtado’s not-so-ambiguous “Promiscuous.”)

BEP’s competition for the “Best Group” awards are Gnarls Barkley, Outkast, Pussycat Dolls and The Streets.

Fergie’s solo single “London Bridge” is … rising up! — all the way up to #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 in just its third week out, following a spectacular jump last week from #84 to #5, the second-highest jump ever recorded in the 48-year history of the Hot 100. “London Bridge” is the first single from THE DUTCHESS, the debut solo album by Fergie, of the multi-platinum two-time Grammy Award winning group, The Black Eyed Peas. The album will arrive in stores September 19th on will.i.am Music Group/A&M Records.

Since its release on July 17th, “London Bridge” — hailed by New York Newsday as “meant for the dance floor … one of summer’s hottest guilty pleasures” — has enjoyed a meteoric climb up the charts. In addition to the top spot on the Hot 100, the single continues to bullet its way up the Billboard Top 40 (currently #11) and Rhythmic Top 40 (at #18). It’s also #1 on the iTunes list of Top 100 Songs (most downloaded) this week. “I’m absolutely thrilled and extremely grateful. It’s an exciting time in my life and I can’t wait for people to hear the entire album,” said Fergie. The single was produced by Atlanta beatsmith Polow Da Don, who has worked previously with Ludacris, The Pussycat Dolls and Ciara.

The “London Bridge” video, directed by Marc Webb (whose credits include Weezer’s “Perfect Situation,” Ashlee Simpson’s “Boyfriend,” and My Chemical Romance’s “The Ghost of You” and “Helena”), has been aired on MTV’s TRL everyday since its July 18th debut and was in “Big 10″ rotation for 2 weeks. The clip is FUSE’s #1 Most Played Video this week.

After achieving the second biggest leap in Billboard Hot 100 history last week, Fergie’s “London Bridge” ascends four rungs to the top of the chart. The cut ends the six-week run of Nelly Furtado’s “Promiscuous” featuring Timbaland, which falls to No. 3 but holds atop the Pop 100 for a seventh frame.

The Fergie track also rises 2-1 on the Hot Digital Songs chart, swapping positions with Gnarls Barkley’s “Crazy,” which remains No. 2 on the Hot 100. Elsewhere on the chart, Cassie’s “Me & U” descends 3-4, the Pussycat Dolls’ “Buttons” featuring Snoop Dogg jumps 6-5 and Beyonce’s “Deja Vu” featuring Jay-Z slides 4-6. – Billboard.com
