Think again.

The Black Eyed Peas singer has admitted to a series of lesbian flings during her younger years.

Fergie said she went a wee bit off the rails and rebelled against her Catholic upbringing by going on a sex and drugs spree when she got to 18.

She told the Daily Mirror: "I have had lesbian experiences in the past.

"I won't say how many men I've had sex with - but I am a very sexual person.

"When I was going through my out-of-control phase , I could have got into very dangerous situations."

She added: "I had a gun put to my head during a drug deal that went wrong. Luckily I got out of it."
