The Elle US May 2010 issue has Ferge, the sexy female pipes of musical group Black Eyed Peas, on its cover. Photographed by Carter Smith, the smoking songstress is the ultimate depiction of old Hollywood glam.

The photo spread may take you back, as Fergie channels the spirits of legendary screen sirens Greta Garbo and Ava Gardner. I’m sure there will be lots of men jealous of Josh Duhamel after they check out this spread in Elle US May 2010.
