Not ready to be mom

FERGIE is too busy to have a baby.

The Black Eyed Peas singer, who is married to Transformers star Josh Duhamel, admitted she is focusing on her career and thinks she would struggle to try and work while pregnant.

She explained: "Everyone tries to rush you into everything in the press these days, but for me right now it's all about Black Eyed Peas - there's no room in my schedule to have a child.

"Even if I wanted to get pregnant, there's no way I could perform on stage and be pregnant. I would feel too guilty."

Fergie admitted that when she and Josh, 37, eventually do start a family, her music career will take a back seat. She told Britain's OK! magazine: "Once I have children, the kids come first.

"One thing at a time for me. There's a saying, I forget who said it, but it was a really good quote that said women can have it all, just not all at once. It's too much if you're doing everything all at once."

Josh, who married Fergie, 35, in January last year, has previously spoken of his desire to have children.

Josh said: "We're thinking about kids. I don't know when. She said that she'd be pregnant twice. So I said, 'Great, we'll have two sets of twins!'" - Bang
