While there was plenty of action at the 2011 Mnet Asian Music Awards on Tuesday, will.i.am, apl.de.ap and 2NE1's CL stole the show with a knockout performance of the Black Eyed Peas' 'Where Is the Love?'.

Yowza! will.i.am had a bit of a scare today when his flight leaving Hong Kong had to make an emergency stop before it even left the runway! The Black Eyed Peas frontman said the pilot realized the cargo door was open seconds before lift off...

Since announcing the Black Eyed Peas hiatus, will.i.am is using his free time to focus on his solo career. The Peas frontman teased fans with a sneak peek of his new video for 'T.H.E (The Hardest Ever).'

Will.i.am is set to headline a concert in Beijing to promote studying abroad in China. John Legend, the Bucky Johnson band and will.i.am's fellow Black Eyed Pea, apl.de.ap, will also perform.

Black Eyed Peas frontman will.i.am debuted his kick-off single from his upcoming hashtag album '#willpower' at the American Music Awards Sunday night (Nov. 20). The computerized song 'T.H.E (The Hardest Ever)' features Jennifer Lopez who won for Favorite Latin Music Artist during the night's telecast.

Even though there have been many rumors that the Black Eyed Peas are disbanding, one saying that the group was going to replace Fergie, will.i.am has steadfastly denied the gossip about the BEPs parting ways. Despite this, the group appears to be taking a hiatus since Will is getting ready to release a solo album, entitled '#willpower.'

Will.i.am is not a fan of rumors. The hitmaker took to Twitter today to tweet to his followers and set the record straight: the Black Eyed Peas are absolutely not replacing Fergie. Rumors hit the web this week that the frontlady was going to take time off to start a family, and consequently, BEP would replace her -- allegedly with Ashanti ...

Today on Twitter, will.i.am tweeted that he had injured himself rather badly while filming the video for his song 'T.H.E (The Hardest Ever).' The singer did not offer any other details on the situation. Both Nicki Minaj and Jay Sean were tweeting their birthday wishes to Drake, who turned 25 today. Soulja Boy and Keri Hilson both had TMZ cameras in their faces and Weird Al told his followers that he would be making an appearance on the CBS show 'How I Met Your Mother.' Anyone else hoping he'll have a recurring role? Despite prior reports that Bruno Mars would be releasing his video for 'It Will Rain' on Wednesday (Oct. 26), the singer tweeted the video premiere will be delayed for a couple weeks as he's still working on the finished product. And we must mention that Blink 182 drummer Travis Barker was going on a field trip with his daughter today! Fatherhood comes first! See what your favorite stars were chirping about today!

We never thought we'd be writing about a tough dance song ('T.H.E (The Hardest Ever)') featuring will.i.am, Jennifer Lopez and ... Mick Jagger! While the first two pieces of the equation are not that unlikely, the inclusion of a rock icon like Jagger on the synth-heavy, crunchy and somewhat gnashing pop song seems almost unfathomable. It's unexpected, but all the parts are blended with a heavy ha

Could a collaboration between Jennifer Lopez and Black Eyed Peas frontman will.i.am be underway? It certainly looks that way!
