The Black Eyed Peas – My Humps
The fact that Fergie pissed her pants on-stage this year is only one reason that even the most righteous, reconstructed-male-feminist type among us is moved to scream “Skank!” at the very thought of her. This ghastly song about Fergie’s “lovely lady lumps” is another. It breaks new ground in bad taste-and not just because a “lump” is something you see a doctor about-but once it’s in your head, “My Humps” is as sticky as the residue in Fergie’s crack pipe, and it inspires the kind of exquisitely conflicted feeling of pleasure one normally assigns to a Preparation H applicator.
