Black Eyed Peas kick off Wireless Festival as Fergie rocks out in a space age David Koma mini dress

Black Eyed Peas frontwoman Fergie definitely stole the limelight during the first day of the Barclaycard Wireless Festival yesterday.

As well as showing off her perfectly toned body in a tiny black space age inspired mini-dress she wowed the 63,000 strong audience with her perfect vocals.

The 36-year-old singer has noticeably lighter hair and glowed as she belted out Shut Up, Imma Be and Don't Phunk With My Heart.

The crowd was also left screaming for more after she sang her solo hit Big Girls Don't Cry.

The group were the headline act on the first night of the three-day festival. Dressed in matching space age suits they showed why they have dominated the charts in recent years.

Will.i.am also showed off his skills on the decks by playing a number of party anthems and the band finished off by singing Where Is The Love while the sun set.

Will.i.am also explained that London held a special place in his heart and said the band found fame in the UK before anywhere else in the world.

Earlier in the day the singer was forced to evacuate the Hilton hotel in Park Lane, Mayfair, after a fire started on the second floor.

Let me hear you scream: The band told the 63,000 strong crowd how much they loved London

Unfazed: Will.i.am appeared to be on form even though he was forced to evacuate his hotel after a fire scare earlier in the day

But he appeared unfazed on-stage and tweeted beforehand: 'Peas rockin hyde park.'

Bruno Mars also performed and was accompanied by a full band including a full brass section on the main stage.

Soul singer Plan B managed to look dapper in a suit and didn't appear to be too bothered by the summer temperatures.
