Stacy Ann Ferguson
Birth Place:
Hacienda Heights, California, USA
Ethnicity:
Irish, Scottish and Mexican
The Female vocalist from the group Black eyed Peas and now a solo artist, is of Irish, Scottish and Mexican Descent. She stated this in an article at Latina.com. Specifically she stated that her great grandmother was Mexican and born in Guanajuato.
Some people even go as far as to claim she is of part African American origin. Some of these claims may be to give her more street credibility. But she admits that she is mostly Scottish-Irish.
An interesting article on Racialicous.com talks about Fergie’s image as an multi-ethnic artist and comparisons to Gwen Stefani.

Fergie is Mexican way back further in her ancestrial family tree so I doubt she really has much in her. Also, big deal if she does have Mexican what is wrong with that? God made us who we are and our ancestors.

Many people keep saying mexican is not a race. It is a race. The majority of mexican are of native american. Just like the native american on the reservation. The difference is the mexican speak spanish and the natives americans here in the usa spaek english.
sure there’s some white mexicans out there but that’s a minority
and they usually don’t migrate to the united states because there wealthy in mexico.

She is not very pretty and the only thing that is pretty are her eyes. You can tell she has native blood trust me I live in Canada most whites here aren’t white there lie. I can see their native blood a mile away. Because my white mother is white she can trace her family tree to England and northern France. She married my dad who is 1/4 native you can tell he is native and their kids are 1/6 and you can tell with my sister she is know white lol and my brothers look white but you can still tell there is something known white about them. Oh I am adopted by the way and I am black.

The interesting part is that these people you’ve named all but one I believe are part European or Caucasian (or African American i.e. Cassie). What about the “beautiful” 100% Mexican?

Ferguson name is of Gaelic origon found both in Scotland and Ireland and is patronymic form of Fergus ie son of Fergus,The old Gaelic name Fearghus comprmised of the elements fear (or `man`) and ghus(`vigor or force),It is the name of an early Irish mythical figure and an early king of the Scots.But it was the Scots who brought the name Ferguson to Ireland at the time of plantations,Everyone knows Scotland and Ireland are very close even sharing nearly the same language Gaelic that has a few differences,,So it it now used commanly in the two countries,,But the Fergie has Irish and Scottish as it says so in the paragraph written about her so…
