Will James Cameron's Next Film Star the Black Eyed Peas?

As we all know, James Cameron's best work is not Aliens, Avatar, or Titanic, but instead his one contribution to music video history: Martini Ranch's "Reach" video, a deliciously absurd parable about female bodybuilders and Kathryn Bigelow's doability in a cowgirl outfit. Alas, Cameron hasn't directed a music video since, although according to will.i.am from the Black Eyed Peas, the director is going to put off Avatar 2 to direct their concert film. Um what?

The frontman tells Vibe:

"Right now we are planning our 3-D tour movie and James Cameron is directing it. We have the biggest director because we are the biggest group on the planet. The Peas are filming it in South America. People will be able to see us in the theater with the 3-D glasses and everything."

"There will be a storyline that [Cameron] came up with, which will be dope. It's a full-length film and it's based around our tour activities. We've toured from America and Europe, to the Middle East, South America, Asia and Africa. It's not like we go, 'Yo, we are international, you know what I'm saying? London and Paris!' Nah, that's just two cities. We want to go across the planet."

Indeed, this will be dope! (And we all know how much James Cameron loves South America.) Imagine the kitsch factor of the following video, only with Fergie and 3D:
