I think Fergie is so successful because she has a very good mastery of attitudes toward popular music. No one wants to like anything sincerely. People like to feel smarter than the entertainment they consume. So Fergie has built a very successful career out of releasing songs that are very catchy and also kind of stupid. I know so many people who have told me that "Fergalicious" is a very stupid song, but that they like it anyway. I used to feel that way too. The brilliance of "Fergalicious" is that everyone can listen to it and feel smarter than Fergie and smarter than everyone else who listens to it.
I mean, Will.I.Am spells "tasty" wrong throughout the song.
I also really like some of the youtube comments on this video:
