Will.i.am turns model in Paris fashion week

Will.i.am is used to filling stadiums, but a simple trip down the catwalk at Japanese label Rynshu’s spring-summer menswear show Sunday had the Black Eyed Peas’ rapper blushing.

Sporting a snug leather blazer, a pair of cropped harem pants in shiny black and clunky combat boots, will.i.am shuffled up the runway, shooting sheepish glances at the photographers’ pit as the audience encouraged him with a round of applause.

The performer is collaborating with the brand on a line christened “Will.I.Am x Rynshu” for next spring-summer and has worn clothes from last year’s collection in a music video. He and the other Black Eyed Peas are in Paris for a series of concerts here.
