Last month, Atlanta stripper Nicole Forrester claimed she was intimate with Josh, 37, after he turned up at the club she worked at while in town shooting a movie. It is a allegation Josh categorically denies. For her part, Terri Jackson is convinced her daughter and son-in-low will survive the “absurd” rumors.

“My daughter’s life is amazing and Josh is a great guy – that story is bullshit as far as I’m concerned,” she told RadarOnline.com. “It was totally ridiculous and absurd and I’m confident their marriage will weather the media storm. But it’s not my place to talk about my daughter’s private life, so, if you need specifics then you will have to ask her questions in person.”

“I thought, ‘Nobody’s gonna find out. It’s not gonna hurt anybody,’” Nicole cries. “I’m sorry. I’m sorry that I didn’t think of it at the time like I think of it now.”

The 34-year-old single mother of two says she slept with Duhamel, 37, while he was filming Live As We Know It in her hometown of Atlanta over the summer. Despite the fallout from their affair, Nicole alleges that Josh has texted her as recently as this week. Josh wed Fergie last January after more than four years of dating.

In an one-on-one interview with Extra, airing this evening, Nicole fumes over being labeled a “homewrecker” by the razor-tongued public.

“She’s standing by her man, so obviously I’m not wrecking the home too bad, huh?” she says.

“This is not the first nor will it be the last time that a stripper was paid a large amount of money to sell a false story about a celebrity,” a rep for Josh told People, referring to the claims made by busted butterface Nicole Forrester in a recent story in the tabloid The National Enquirer. “This story is absolutely ridiculous.”

Nicole, an Atlanta stripper known as “Delilah,” told The Enquirer that she enjoyed a one-night with Duhamel — who wed his pop star spouse in a ceremony last January — when he was in Atlanta earlier this month filming Life As We Know It.

A lawyer for Forrester — a 34-year-old mother of two — says she passed a lie detector test to prove the one-night stand happened. Attorney Romin Alavi tells Us Weekly, “Josh bragged about what happened on the set of his movie [Life As We Know It], and someone called The Enquirer with the tip. The Enquirer then came to Nicole.”

During an interview with Q100’s Bert Show in Atlanta, Nicole claimed she has sex with the actor a week after he came to the Tattletales Club in the southern city, where she dances. “We did hook up and had lots of sex and we had a really, really good time,” she claimed during the interview.

Nicole sold her story to The National Enquirer for $20,000. She also said she has text messages and polygraph test results to back up her claims.

Tattletales? Lordy…

Nicole — a divorced mother of two who works the pole under the name “Delilah” — claims Josh was in Hotlanta filming the romantic comedy Life As We Know It when he invited her to his $820-a-night hotel room at the St. Regis for sex just days after meeting.

After more than three years of dating, Josh and Fergie tied the knot in January 2009.

Transformers star Josh Duhamel has no regrets about posing nude for a series of photographs early on in his career.

In 2000, he actor stripped off for the images, which later surfaced onine.

But Duhamel — who is married to Black Eyed Peas star Fergie — is laughing off the controversy because it’s all in the past.

“To me, it’s funny at this point. Whatever. It’s done,” he says in the July issue of Men’s Health Magazine.

And he’s poking fun at the snaps by joking about the size of his manhood, adding, “It was very cold in the studio, by the way!”

Josh Duhamel dropped by TODAY this morning. The former star of NBC’s Las Vegas has reprised his role in the new Transformers sequel, Revenge Of The Fallen, which earned more than $112 million at the box office this weekend.

Josh On Reaching A Pivotal Place In His Career: “It’s starting to happen. It’s been 12 years. And I feel like I’m finally starting to get looks at some of the things I’ve always wanted to do,” Josh says. “I have a lot more flexibility I can show. That’s what makes it fun. That’s why I love this business. I don’t want to do things just to prove to people ‘Look how dark I can be.’ It’s about the story. It has to be a good story.”

Josh On Starting A Family With Wife Fergie: “I want to do good work, but having kids and a life outside of that is important. If you don’t have anybody around who loves you, then what’s it all for? You’re just lonely in the end,” the actor explains. “It’s all about whatever enriches you. If you decide to go the domestic route and get married and all those things, it makes you a better actor.”

Josh On Living With The Paparazzi: “We try to stay away from the places where the paparazzi hang. Still, they’re outside the house every morning.”

Newlyweds Josh Duhamel and Fergie are reportedly considering adopting a child after spending months at odds over how to satisfy their desire for parenthood without putting the 33-year-old Black Eyed Peas star’s successful singing career on a shelf.

“They are considering adoption,” a source close to Duhamel, 36, divulged in the Feb. 2 issue of The National Enquirer.

“It would be a win-win situation for everyone.”

Fergie & Josh Duhamel were married in a star-studded wedding ceremony in Malibu on Saturday night.

The “Glamorous” singer and the Transformers actor tied the knot amid thousands of white roses at the Church Estates Vineyards, PEOPLE reports.

The guest list reportedly included new parents Rebecca Romijn and Jerry O’Connell, Kid Rock, Slash, Fergie’s Black Eyed Peas bandmates, actor James Caan, and Molly Sims.

Soon-to-be newlywed Fergie and fiance Josh Duhamel celebrated their final days as part of the single set with joint bachelor and bachelorette parties in Hollywood last night.

“They wanted a more tame party and wanted to do it together,” a spy revealed to In Touch Weekly on Wednesday.

But that doesn’t mean fun wasn’t in the air.

The Black Eyed Peas songstress, 33, reportedly received “plenty of naughty gifts from all her girlfriends,” the insider adds.

Fergie and Josh, of Transformers fame, have been dating for more than four years and will wed this Saturday, January 10, in Southern California.
