This is the way to start 2010 right — and put all those sordid allegations of Josh’s cheating behind you!

Looks like Fergie and Josh Duhamel are as crazy in love as ever! The couple — embattled this year after an Atlanta stripper alleged an affair with Josh — “stayed close” according to eyewitnesses at club LAX in Las Vegas, “hugging and cuddling togther.”

Fergie planted a kiss on Josh before she went onstage with her bandmates the Black Eyed Peas, and then, as the countdown started, Josh, we’re told, “rushed to the platform” and kissed Fergs, launching a torrent of screams and cheers for the couple.

Pictures don’t say everything, we know — but you really can’t fake what this picture says!
