LOS ANGELES, Calif. -- Josh Duhamel & wife Fergie of the Black Eyed Peas continue to deny allegations that the "Transformers" star had sex with an Atlanta stripper.

"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 Nicole Forrester in a recent story in the tabloid the National Enquirer. "This story is absolutely ridiculous."

And a rep for Fergie told Access Hollywood, "These allegations are nonsense."

On Monday, during an interview on Atlanta radio station Q100's "Bert Show," Nicole claimed she had sex with the actor a week after he came to the Tattletale club in Atlanta, 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's attorney, Romin Alavi, told Us Weekly that Josh allegedly boasted about the incident while filming his new movie with Katherine Heigl in Atlanta, "Life As We Know It."

"Josh bragged about what happened on the set of his movie ['Life As We Know It'], and someone called the Enquirer with the tip," Alavi told Us Weekly. "The Enquirer then came to Nicole."

And according to a report by Bill Zwecker of The Chicago Sun-Times, the couple has had, "a very intense and heated'' talk about the infidelity claim.

''He's definitely in the doghouse,'' a Chicago Sun-Times source close to The Black Eyed Peas claimed. 'But Fergie's hanging in there - at least for the time being. She was fully aware of Josh's reputation as a ladies' man when she hooked up with him.''

The stripper in question also said she has text messages and polygraph test results to back up her claims.

Nicole reportedly sold her story to the National Enquirer for more than $20,000.
