Fergie in her fedora stepped out of her hotel in London today to head to a business meeting. She's not home to cheer on the USA in the Olympics, but pretty soon Fergie will be ready for a little competition herself — in video game form. Electronic Arts has unveiled a new game called Celebrity Sports Showdown that matches up stars against each other to duke it out in a variety of different events. Fergie is one of the featured celebs you can play with, and while she's not the beefiest star on the roster, we know that this girl is more than equipped to kick some butt.

Katie Holmes showed off yet another new work style in her leggings on her walk to rehearsal today. While checking out her outfits has become a daily exercise, it's especially interesting since Katie has been having more say in what she wears lately.

Sounds like if the Broadway gig doesn't work out, Katie's next move could be another step toward fashion design.
