LOS ANGELES, Calif. --

As if five huge hit singles from her three-times platinum album "The Dutchess" weren't enough, Access Hollywood has learned that Fergie will soon release two-more singles, and that the album is indeed slated for a U.S. re-release, which will include at least four new tracks.

"The Dutchess" was already re-released in Japan in November 2007, featuring six new songs, including "Pick It Up" featuring will.i.am. An "Australian Tour Edition" of the album featured four new tracks.

Fergie shot the music video for "Finally" in LA this weekend. The music video shoot took place at the former Hollywood Hills home of Frank Sinatra and featured several male models from Wilhelmina Models as part of the shoot. At one point, Fergie Ferg had a "rock star moment" when she threw a pair of priceless vintage Chanel shoes into the pool. "CoCo Chanel would have turned over in her grave… but it was a fabulous moment," one onlooker said.

The video for the album's seventh single will shoot sometime in the next two weeks.

Access has also exclusively learned that Fergie is planning a special performance for "American Idol's" "Idol Gives Back" show this year, which will air on April 9th.

The Dutchess will be joined by none other than Seattle-rockers Heart, for a joint take on the band's largest hit, "Barracuda." Heart's songs have been very popular song choices for "Idol" contestants over the years.

Fergie fans can catch the superstar at Houston's Reliant Arena on March 19th for the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo. But get your tickets to her Houston show soon; 61,000 tickets have already sold for the event!

Oh, and if you haven't watched Fergie's recent "Funny Or Die" video, be sure to check it out (for a fun laugh)!
