Fergie is indeed still a firm fixture in The Black Eyed Peas.

These were the words of member Taboo when talking to That Grape Juice at the 2017 MTV Video Music Awards.

Speculation about the singer’s future with the group cranked into overdrive earlier this year when the eclectic ensemble begun performing without her.

Speaking with TGJ’s Megan Thomas, Taboo dispelled the doubt. He explained that – much like the Wu Tang Clan – BEP’s stars will go and do other things but are always still a part of the action.

He went on to tease some of the newness the group have on the way, as well as his solo endeavour with The Magnificent 7. The latter of whom he earned a VMA nod with.

Peep the interview above.

Rita Ora has spent much of this week shining light on worthwhile causes.

As reported, the 26-year-old was snapped helping the relief effort in Houston following Hurricane Harvey. And today she jetted back to home London to perform at the Game For Grenfell football match.

The event was put on in support of those who lost their homes following the raging fire which wreaked havoc on the tower block back in June. Over 80 were confirmed dead in the aftermath of the tragedy – although the final death toll is believed to be much higher.

Together with a host of other British stars, Ora took part to help raise funds for those affected.

Her role saw her perform a stirring rendition of Bill Withers’ ‘Lean On Me’ alongside Emeli Sande and Marcus Mumford.
