Just Will.i.am: Imagining the singer's life on Twitter
The hip-hop star used to be a breath of fresh air: now, the chronic tweeter is inescapable, and faintly tedious. Worse, he's given wor Cheryl a bloody nose and even appeared in 'The Financial Times'!
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

So I went to #Taunton, Massachusetts + was given this #Grammy. I was like #OMG. I think people in #Torton liked me. They shouted #DOPE at me
@will.i.am
Look up at the stars. Wow. My song was the first beamed on to #Mars. Kinda cool. So it's the best ever in space. And I guess the worst.
@will.i.am
I was like let's get the Cadillac started + Cheryl was like OK + I was like let's tweet that + she was like lookout… #fenderbender
@will.i.am
This lady @JubyLee won a chance to meet me. I said Fergie would be at the after-party in #sizzlin hot pants. She didn't seem to like that
@will.i.am
Me and the #King smashed it. He loves science man. His kid has got the same name as me. Will.One.Is.
@will.i.am
I have arrived. Six pages in the Financial Times. Does that mean they're cool or I'm really not? I tell them I'm a popthropoligist. Dope
@will.i.am
So everyone like loves the #BlackEyedPeas. Where is the Love? Hey Mama. Humps. Shut Up. No we won't!
@will.i.am
Dirty like Dancing? Nobody puts baby in the corner. And nobody takes a perfectly good theme song and ruins it with rap like #BlackEyedPeas
@will.i.am
So this was so freakin' weird. I got to meet the #Queen (I think). She is one crazy lady. I was the first rapper she'd kicked it with.
