Fergie exits her hotel and poses with awaiting fans on Thursday (April 21) in New York City.
The 36-year-old singer and her Black Eyed Peas bandmates just announced that they will be starting a music academy in America.
The school will provide local teenagers with the opportunity to learn video and music producing skills.
“Our passion for music and media was fueled by many generous people on our road to success,” Will.i.am explained. “Expanding the network of Youth Voices academies enables us to pay it forward, giving more youth the skills and encouragement they need to realize their dreams.”
