Los Angeles -- Will.I.Am says a published report claiming the Black Eyed Peas are close to breaking up is "all lies."
The group leader denounced a Radar Online report saying Fergie is close to quitting the pop group and denied his bandmates were fed up with his "out of control" ego, MTV UK reported Sunday.
Radar Online quoted an insider saying: "Things have gotten really bad with Will.I.Am. And it's not just Fergie who is clashing with him. So is the rest of the band. His ego is out of control. Fergie just wants to get away from the whole thing."
However, Will.I.Am responded on his Twitter page: "Don't believe gossip about Fergie leaving the group (we are never breaking up). It's all lies!!!"
