I must be getting old, cause I actually like Fergie.  And of course the Eminem comment earlier was one of the stupidest one's I've read in a long time.  He's got more talent in his little pinky then most other artists these days or recent past.

Don't worry. You're not getting old. You just have really crappy taste.

I like Fergie, too.  She shouldn't get within ten feet of a cover song (did anyone hear her version of "Live and Let Die?") but she's a better Gwen Stefani than Gwen Stefani is.  
 
 I was telling someone over the weekend that she's released greater singles off one album ("Clumsy", "Fergalicious", "London Bridge", probably "Mary Jane Shoes") than Britney has in her entire career.

please define "greater".
 
 sold more copies?  no friggin' way.
 
 more talented?  neither have talent, it's a draw.  all of their singles are studio magic, their vocal contributions were minimal (and then quickly paved over).
 
 more culturally relevant to today's generation of emo-whiners?  possibly, but i'll defer to your expertise on that one.

Seriously, it's like arguing Splenda is better than Equal.
 It's still fake with no calories.

I don't know about Fergie, but Gwen's voice sounds great even outside of the studio.

I'll give you "Toxic" and "Hit Me Baby..." but the middle eight of "Fergalicious?", the "girl can't help it" chorus of "Clumsy?", the overall skankiness of "London Bridge?"  That's at least 3-2, Fergie.
