Quentin Tarantino and Robert Rodriguez have signed The Black Eyed Peas singer Fergie to star in their new film Grind House.

The maverick movie-makers are huge fans of the My Humps beauty, real name Stacy Ferguson, and hope she will add sex appeal to the upcoming thriller.

Fergie has already starred in movies Be Cool and Poseidon, as well as appearing in US TV shows Las Vegas and Married With Children.

Rose Mcgowan, Josh Brolin, Marley Shelton and Michael Biehn will also star in the eagerly-awaited double-bill epic.
