Members KLN Posted March 20, 2007 Members Share Posted March 20, 2007 Gwen Stefani - Luxurious For the record, Gwen's song was recorded first. Now, Fergie's got "Glamorous" out and it's virtually the same song. Even the rap by Ludacris is exactly the same... not re-recorded or anything! Even the song titles are similiar. Luxurious. Glamorous. Anyone wanna tell me why Fergie is such a Gwen Stefani ripoff/wannabe? She's uglier than hell, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Sweet_VeeVee24 Posted March 20, 2007 Members Share Posted March 20, 2007 I noticed that when I heard it...As much as I like Fergie, I like Gwen ten times more, since she's always switching the gears with her music.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members KLN Posted March 20, 2007 Author Members Share Posted March 20, 2007 Same here. Gwen's got style. Fergie's just a blazing hot mess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members alwaysAMC Posted March 20, 2007 Members Share Posted March 20, 2007 Haha - I like Glamorous a lot better. I think Gwen probably allowed Fergie to take the background sound and I'm sure Ludacris was all about using his part to get a song popular. I really don't think Fergie just took the song, or else we'd be hearing about a lawsuit or something. I can see why this song isn't popular and Fergie's made it big. This just doesn't work as well as Fergie's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Tishy Posted March 20, 2007 Members Share Posted March 20, 2007 I totally beg to differ. Fergie has it all over Gwen Stefani. Just check this little ditty out... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HnsHpPNltBw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members KLN Posted March 20, 2007 Author Members Share Posted March 20, 2007 KIDS INCORPORATED! K-I-D-S! Yeah, Kids Incorporated! K-I-D-S! Whoooa, looks like we made it... we're Kids Incorporaaaaaaated. I loved that show! LoL Fergie still sucks, though. I so prefer Gwen to her. And for the record, "Glamorous" sucks. The song gets on my nerves everytime I hear it. I much, much prefer the "Luxurious" lyrics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DrewH Posted March 20, 2007 Members Share Posted March 20, 2007 Team Fergie all the way! This song has obviously been edited with Ludacris' rap and Glamorous beat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members KBT Posted March 20, 2007 Members Share Posted March 20, 2007 I HATE to admit this, but I secretly love Glamorous! However, I can't stand the Black Eyed Peas and usually can't stand Fergie's songs but I have to admit I have liked her last two. If it were a Gwen/Fergie battle I would have to go with Stefani though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Marilyn_M Posted March 20, 2007 Members Share Posted March 20, 2007 You do realize that there are two verisons of Luxurious, right? This is just the remix and Fergie was allowed to use this. On her L.A.M.B album, she used a chopped and screwed version of the Isleys Brother's "Between the Sheets." I don't see her as being Gwen ripoff. They are both talented. Their music, imo couldn't be any different, with the exception of this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Michael Posted March 20, 2007 Members Share Posted March 20, 2007 Not that I ever post, but I sort of know "the answer" to this one and it's late, so I might as well... The producer (Polow Da Don, I think) produced the alternate version of Luxurious for Gwen when she was developing her first album. She decided to go with the Between the Sheets sample instead, so the producer shopped the track around. JC Chasez also turned it down. Then Fergie picked it up (with the rap built-in, I guess) and they wrote a song around it. Polow Da Don's mix of Luxurious leaked, but it was never actually released. I love Glamorous, but it's pretty funny how they didn't even bother to make it a different type of song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Rhiannon Posted March 20, 2007 Members Share Posted March 20, 2007 Here's another YouTube clip of Fergie from KI singing Lionel Richie's Say You, Say Me , this one has quite a few close ups too....I watched this show when I was young, until we moved and lost the Disney Channel...... Any comments about the scary clown? "> " type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="350"> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members KBT Posted March 20, 2007 Members Share Posted March 20, 2007 WTF is that clown doing, twirling around a broom! I can't even tell that little girl is Fergie, she has obviously had some face surgery. Her voice is great from KI, too bad it has gotten worse over the years.
