Fergie has ditched her trademark blonde locks for a darker style.

The Black Eyed Peas star showed off her new look in Beverly Hills last night and denied she'd made the change because she was pregnant.

Dogged by baby rumours since she married actor Josh Duhamel in January, Fergie insisted the new look was because she'd grown bored of the blonde.

She said: "I've always been a risk taker."
