Will-i.am Fashion Icon
Most of you probably recognise Will.i.am as one of the members of the Black Eyed Peas. When it comes to commercial power and fashion eccentricism, William James Adam has to be one of the most revolutionary fashionistas out there. His sharp-dressed image dazzles us on and off stage. He is known for his flamboyant fashion and futuristic stage costumes. He is truly a performer of colour, style and dictates trends. In fact, he is the trendsetter of male fashion in the music industry. The man knows movies, the man knows music, the man knows style.
In a 2010 interview with the Toronto Star, Will.i.am explained why he wanted to develop a rock-inspired clothing line.
There are not that many things that are available out there to express yourself,” he said. “And I’d like to fill that void and help lead — not lead, but help navigate guys to be a little bit more open-minded about how to rock their gear.

The Motivator
One thing I’ve learnt that CONFIDENCE IS NOT FOR SALE. Will.i.am clearly leads, lives and breathes this attitude. Never giving up and always having a positive self image. Here are some of his quotes:
Why do they say the sky is the limit/ When I’ve seen them footprints on the moon?” he sings. “I know that Mars might be far/ but baby it ain’t really that far.
I took safety in dressing up so people knew me to be different. The louder you dressed, the more obvious it became that you weren’t in a gang. My attire got me through. I used to rap because it kept me out of trouble. It kept me safe. All my childhood friends are dead, in prison, on drugs, or have sold drugs.
IAMAUTO
Not happy with the car designs out there Will.i.am started his own car design company called IAMAUTO. The cars are made in LA in the disadvantaged communities.
