In an interview with HX magazine, Fergie of the Black Eyed Peas had a specific message for the party drug-prone gay community, for whom she knows crystal meth addiction has reached epidemic proportions. “In my experience, ecstasy led to crystal meth, and I just think that people don’t know how addictive that drug is. It’s so cunning because it’s such a fun drug at first. You lose weight and look great for a while, but I don’t care if it takes six months or five years, it will creep up on you,” she warned in an almost motherly tone. “Don’t be fooled and think you’re special.” HX.com has since removed the full story.

A lot of it was being a child actor; I learned to suppress feelings.” When asked what she does now with those feelings, she said, “I have an hour and a half of performing every night and improvising.
