According to PopEater, Stacy Ferguson, (aka Fergie) got to know just how her ‘Nine’ co-star, Daniel Day-Lewis prepares for his roles. The method actor stayed in character by leaving little love notes for her. Fergie’s character is someone who “taunts and teases young Guido, Daniel’s character, in the movie”.
“Daniel is very charming. I’d go into my dressing room, and I’d find this little note. I’d open it, and it would be Guido’s stationary. He would write me little notes as Guido. They were very cute and very charming,”
She admits that she was intimidated by the top-notch cast.
“Going into this musical, I’m definitely the singer coming into this A-list acting world, so it was intimidating for me flying over and knowing that I was going to be amongst these people who were at the top of their game in their field. I thought maybe I’ll just sit in the corner and kind of be a sponge and not speak and watch how they hone their craft.”
It quickly became apparent that that wasn’t going to happen. She had to dive right in!
“The first person I met was Daniel. It was 15 minutes later where I had to belt out the song right in front of him. I’ve admired his work for years, and I just had to push through it and say, ‘What the hell.’ I was very hungry for this role, and I went after it. I definitely have caught the bug because it’s another way to express yourself, and I’m an artist.”
Sounds like she jumped in with both feet and enjoyed it! I’m anxious to see her performance. I have a feeling she pulled it off well.

Why does the article say her name is “Sarah?” Isn’t it Stacy?
Still needs a neck
You can’t tell from those pictures but that is a fine, fine man.
This is going to sound really bitchy…but oh well. Who cares. I was looking forward to this movie; however, when I learned Fergie was in it, it suddenly cheapened it for me. I think I’m okay with everyone else…Kate Hudson is a bit meh. But it might be good to see her out of her niche. Fergie though? Ick.
What do you have against Fergie? How is she any better or worse than any of the other chicks in this flick? From what I know of her, she is a strong, independent, kind, beautiful and talented woman. It’s that little Katie Hudson who is grossing me out sleeping with anything with a weiner.
Have you ever seen the picture where Daniel Day-Lewis is wearing an Omega Seamaster watch and she accidentally hits it and brakes the glass?
