American pop group,  Black Eye Peas, who thrilled fans with songs like ”I got the feeling”, ” Where is the love?” and others , would now be singing without the Fergie, the only female member of Black Eyed Peas.

One of the group members, Will.i.am confirmed  the rumours making the rounds that Fergie has left the music group.

He said: “Since the beginning of Black Eyed Peas, we’ve always had amazing vocalists that appeared on the mic with us. People like Macy Gray, Esthero, Debi Nova, Fergie. On Elephunk, there were several females that appeared on that album. Obviously, Fergie was the featured female, but on songs like ‘Let’s Get it Started,’ it’s Noelle [Scaggs], and then Fergie, songs like ‘Latin Girls,’ it’s Debi Nova, and ‘Request Line,’ it’s Macy Gray. We’ll always work with good females.”

Fergie, who joined the group as a lead vocalist in 2002, is yet to make any comments regarding this; even though reports reveal that she is focusing on a solo career and has not recorded new music with the Black Eyed Peas for more than five years.
