Fergie and Josh Duhamel

The December 2009 issue of Cosmopolitan magazine features an interview with singer Fergie, who is set to star in an upcoming movie musical titled Nine. In the interview she said her husband, Josh Duhamel, didn’t mind when she added a little poundage to her normally tight body for the movie. Duhamel enjoyed “the extra meat to grab,” she told Cosmo. “He’s never been critical,” she added.

That interview was conducted long before allegations that surfaced this week that Duhamel has cheated on his wife. Both Duhamel’s and Fergie’s spokespeople have called the claims, by an Atlanta stripper, “ridiculous” and were seen being affectionate at dinner in Atlanta this week.

In the story, which appeared in Us Weekly, Nicole Forrester, a 34-year-old mom of two, claimed on a radio show that she and Duhamel had “lots of sex” at the St. Regis hotel after he visited the Tattletale club where she works. Duhamel is in Atlanta working on the movie Life as We Know It. She claimed that he watched a porn movie with her before hooking up. He did not pay her for sex, she claimed, but did give her $100 for cab fare.

Fergie is scheduled to go to Paris next week to do promotional appearances with her band, the Black Eyed Peas. -Josh
