THE Black Eyed Peas singer Fergie Duhamel spent her 36th birthday running to raise money for Japan.
She took part in a sponsored run organised by her actor husband Josh Duhamel to help victims of the recent earthquake and tsunami in the Far East country but she revealed she didn't mind sacrificing her birthday plans for such a worthy cause.
Although Josh easily beat Fergie in the fun run, the diminutive singer credited her husband's height rather than speed for his victory.
She said: "It's not fair because Duhamel has longer legs. He can walk at the same place as I jog."
Josh - who organised a similar event after Haiti was devastated by an earthquake in 2010 - said he wanted to do something more than just "writing a cheque".
