There's little in the world we like better than seeing fashion, music, celebrities, and philanthropy all join together, which is why we are so excited for the upcoming New York Fashion Rocks concert. Mariah Carey, Beyonce, Rhianna, the Black Eyed Peas, Kid Rock, Chris Brown and Justin Timberlake's acts have all been confirmed for the September 5th Radio City Music Hall show, with more sure to come. The concert will benefit Stand Up To Cancer.

Only a couple of weeks after we outed rock stars for being lame, Fergie goes on the Today Show and delivers this completely slutty performance -- and totally redeems herself. It's a little bit controversial to say the least, especially on a morning show in front of freaked out little kids. But the leather (latex?) pants looked great and soccer moms nationwide are no doubt furious at her and the network. All is right with the world.

Fergie recently appeared on MTV's TRL to promote her new single, 'Big Girls Don't Cry.' It all should have gone very smoothly, but -- oh, dear -- Fergie had to go and break my heart by wearing those ridiculous high-waisted pants. As if the strange length wasn't bad enough, they were a suspender/pant combo (which seems to be a trend for her). No need for the suspenders, Fergie, 'cause pants that high aren't going to fall any time soon.

So what do you all think of this latest celeb trend? I find that it's extremely unflattering on most figures and if Fergie can barely pull it off, what does that mean for the rest of us?

E! Online is a website I always forget to check out, but when I do I realize why I don't.

The site's fashion tab is fully equipped with a fashion police section (standard stuff there) and a "trend spy "section. Trend Spy is supposed to have the pulse on the h-o-t fashions that all of the h-o-t celebrities are wearing. Why on earth was Fergie our fashion icon of the week?

Fergie of the Black Eyed Peas does make some catchy tunes, but fashionista she is not. E! Online has highlighted the suspender trend she has allegedly started (and as far as I am concerned she can go on and finish it too). If you want to mimic the look just head to L.A. boutique Shop Intuition and grab a pair. They will set you back $18 which doesn't seem like much; but the humiliation you face will be priceless. If you think you are capable and cool enough to pull off the look (some are) make sure your look is polished- try a pair of loose fitting black trousers, a white tee, and a newsboy cap.

The always dapper will.i.am of the Black Eyed Peas, didn't come to fashion after a pop career like some other musicians with clothing lines. He actually attended Fashion Institute of Design in Los Angeles before forming the group. Now he is back to his fashion roots, creating "i.am Antik", a denim brand that will be part of the Antik Denim collection. Will.i.am has designed clothing for and styled the Black Eyed Peas and plans to be a hands-on designer for the line which will debut in August.
