Black Eyed Peas 'Shocked By Their Success'

The Black Eyed Peas have compared their recent chart topping success to when they first emerged with 'Where Is The Love?'.

Having spent the last 20 consecutive weeks at the top of the Billboard chart with singles 'Boom Boom Pow' and 'I Gotta Feeling,' the group are so shocked by their popularity, that they admit it feels as if they've just got started again.

"This is crazy right now. It's surreal. It has the same feeling for me as when I joined the Black Eyed Peas and 'Where Is the Love?' took off, and we just started touring around the world and it was complete chaos," Fergie told MTV news.

"We're gonna have the biggest tour we've ever had, and we feel very blessed. All we can say is thank you."

And member Taboo explains how he knew hit single 'I Gotta Feeling' would become an "anthem".

"It was a different format for us, because it was the first song where we all did the verse simultaneously. When we heard it, we knew that it would be the anthem. We all came together and created a great song."
