Will.I.Am has slammed speculation Fergie is quitting the Black Eyed Peas, insisting the gossip is "all lies".

Online reports earlier this week suggested the frontwoman was on the verge of leaving following ongoing tensions within the band.



But will.i.am has dismissed the reports - telling fans the Black Eyed Peas are "never breaking up".

In a post on his Twitter.com page, he writes, "Don't believe gossip about Fergie leaving the group (we are never breaking up) it's all lies!!!"
