Who's Fergie?

Is that really Alanis Moriset?

I think Fergie is the woman who used to front for the Black Eyed Peas (the musical group, not the legumes).

I believe that really is Alanis Moriset.

Anywho, that video was kind of strange, but I guess it would make more sense if I had any idea
what it was that Fergie did that was being spoofed.
Personally, I do not understand how a bunch of people demanding a bigger govt can call themselves anarchist.
I meet lots of folks like this, claim to be anarchist but really they're just liberals with pierced genitals. - gunsmith

The tune that's being spoofed is a lot faster, and a lot "shakier."

Essentialy, she's saying how stupid and empty most hip-hop stuff is when you sing the lyrics in some other way like a dirge or a ballad.

It's kind of a double parody, the surface is just how vapid the lyrics are, the second layer is how sad, empty, superficial, horrid, and meaningless your life would be if it was all just sex, sex, party, sex, party, party, party, shaking it for the guys, sex, party, party, party...

Alanis is just a bit too "Lillith Fair" for my tastes, and there's probably a reason that guy dumped her which inspired her smash-hit "You oughtta know" which launched her career, but credit where credit is due, I've got to give thumbs-up to her for this one.  cheesy

And I may as well explain it...
 
Rather than come out and say that she thought the tune was a sexist piece of crap, she's doing something a little edgier. She's covering it.
 
Anyone remember when Heston read Ice T's Cop Killer at the Time-Warner meeting? Same sort of thing.
