Grindhouse actress Fergie is officially a Glamour Woman. In November 2010, the Black Eyed Peas lead singer was among the honorees at the 2010 Glamour Women of the Year Awards.

Three years earlier, she portrayed the role of Tammy Visan in Grindhouse, a 2007 horror/exploitation film produced by Robert Rodriguez and Quentin Tarantino.
Made of two feature-length segments, she was a cast member of the segment directed by Robert Rodriguez called “Planet Terror.”

In a 2007 interview, Fergie said Quentin Tarantino bit her while filming the movie and revealed a bruise on her arm. Tarantino played one of the zombies that attacked Fergie’s character in Grindhouse.
“First off, I stand with victims everywhere no matter what genre, race, gender, age. I stand with victims period, and I don’t want to take away from anyone’s story,” the singer explained to Entertainment Tonight’s Katie Krause. “That just wasn’t my story.”
“We were just kind of having banter. We were having a little bit of fun… But make no mistake, I don’t want to take away from anyone’s story, and I stand with every victim and everyone’s story everywhere.”
“As I was filming the scene where the zombies attack me, Quentin really got into it. I think he had a lot of fun with that,” Fergie added.

“He’s doing the whole run with me, so it’s great. So I look over and see Quentin, and I have to kind of visualize this zombie-esque character. And we kept having to re-do the scene because he was so into being this creature that he was making all these noises. And he was blaming it on the other guys, but really Quentin was making all the noise.”
Fergie, whose full name is Stacy Ann Ferguson, was 32 years old when the movie “Grindhouse” was released on April 6, 2007. She celebrated her 32nd birthday on March 27, 2007, just days before Grindhouse came out.

At the 2010 Glamour Women of the Year Awards, the American singer, songwriter, fashion designer, television host, and actress received her award for activism in breast cancer research and AIDS awareness in a long one-shoulder red dress from Zac Posen, which she capped off with an interesting set of red pumps.
She was joined by Julia Roberts, who wore a black L’Wren Scott dress with leopard print Giuseppe Zanotti heels.
Fergie’s bright red Casadei shoes are the 4522 Damen pumps, which feature cut-outs and inserts along the upper foot that resemble flames.
