‘Big Girls Don’t Cry’ beauty Fergie will definitely have new reason to sing that song if her recent announcement is anything to go by.  Indeed, the Black Eyed Peas frontwoman set Twitter ablaze moments ago with news of expecting her first child with husband Josh Duhamel.

The news comes as little surprise to fans of the 37-year-old hitmaker as she expressed to Oprah months ago that she had a desire to start a family soon.  Congratz to the happy couple! (source)

Pink may be a soulful Pop rocker these days, yet – as anyone au fait with her colorful career will know – playful R&B is the arena she rose to prominence in.

Thirteen years and thirty hits later, the singer gave a nod to her Urban humblings with an R&B medley at the Los Angeles stop of her ‘Truth About Love Tour’ last night.

Relive the nostalgia of ‘Most Girls’, ‘You Make Me Sick’, and ‘There You Go’ after the jump…
