Glamour's Women of the Year



Fergie has been named in Glamour's Women of the Year 2010. Her fragrance, The Peas, The Grammys. She is a bold musical force. She has also shown a real "social conscience," working for causes from AIDS to cancer. So what does Ferg have to say?

On self-esteem:
"If you start making the right choices for yourself, all of a sudden you start feeling better and better. You’d be surprised how addicting high self-esteem is."

On her relationship with husband Josh Duhamel being featured in the tabloids:
"Just knowing that our relationship was stronger than that. We live in a voyeuristic world, and it’s part of our business. But I like to focus on all the perks that I get in this business."

Her advice to young women:
"There were periods of my life when a lot of people didn’t believe in me. [But] I still had faith in myself. I really had to ask myself life questions. Where do I see myself in five years? Create a ladder for yourself, and walk up the steps. Climb that ladder."

On watching other women flock after her husband:
"For me, I’m not a jealous person. That’s just not my thing. You have to have trust in your relationship."

Her advice to teenage girls:
"I think a lot of you teenagers try to get esteem from accolades from other people, or boys, and what you learn as you get older is that you have to create that within yourself."

The issue is available digitally and on newsstands nationwide November 9. Check out the full interview here!
