37!!Tropes found in her music include:
38
39* AssKicksYou: Does this telekinetically in the "Pump It" video. You know how telekinetics sometimes use hand motions to "throw" or "shove" someone? Fergie does it with her butt. (Or her hair, or her breasts...)
40* CuteClumsyGirl: In the music video for "Clumsy", Fergie is beautiful as always but a walking disaster area. In each of the scenarios, she winds up causing a mishap that endangers herself or others.
41* HighClassGloves: One of the many costumes Fergie wears throughout the music video for "Clumsy" is that of a 50's/60's era singer, which sports a pair of these.
42* LethallyStupid: In the music video for "Clumsy", Fergie kills her love interest when she accidentally throws him out the airlock of her spaceship.
43* RuleOfSexy: A lot of her songs, music videos and performances love to highlight the fact that she is a very attractive woman.
44* SoundEffectBleep: In "Fergilicious" the word "ass" is sensored by a sensual female sigh.
45--> Every time I turn around, brothers gathered 'round, lookin' at me up and down, lookin' at my [''sigh'']
46* StuffyOldSongsAboutTheButtocks: "My Humps" is all about this, along with BuxomBeautyStandard.
47* TamerAndChaster: While still presented as very good looking, Fergie's look in the music video for "Clumsy" veers closer to "cute and innocent" over her usual "in your face vixen" vibe. This also applies to the song itself, which is more bubblegum pop than her usual fair.
