Ciara Reveals New Hair Cut

I guess summer 09 is the season for change and individuality for the ladies. From new tats to new and way out hair cuts, I think we're seeing it all. This is a first for Ciara. She's had long hair since she first came out. I don't know if I actually like the look or the fact that we're seeing something new from Ciara. Ci Ci took to her twitter page and posted these pics for all to see her new bob cut. Ci Ci's stylist by the way, is named Kiyah Wright, who has styled everyone from Mary J. Blige to Tyra Banks. Let me hear your thoughts on the pics.

Ciara Helps Rap Up Mag Celebrates 4th Anniversary

When the BET or any awards show for that matter, goes down, there is always a bunch of parties, celebrity charity events, dinners, etc that go on. Last night at the Sunset Tower in West Hollywood, CA, Rap Up magazine celebrated its 4th Anniversary and Summer Issue Release Party with a few friends. Ciara, who is covering the July issue of Rap Up (along with Rick Ross on the flip side) was in attendance, along with Lil Mama (why?), Adriene Bailon, Teairra Mari, Letoya Luckett and a few others.

Rick Ross & Ciara Rap It Up

Rick Ross and Ciara have dual roles in the upcoming issue of Rap-Up mag. In his issue, the "Boss" talks about his on-going beef with 50 Cent, Eminem, and the rapper who he named his latest car after.

When asked why he believes that Eminem stays out of 50's dumb ass beefs:

“Because he knows 50 is a monkey. He’s Eminem’s personal monkey. Eminem is a genius for signing the monkey. Once Eminem is through with him and Jimmy Iovine’s through with him, he may end up on Maybach Music and be my monkey.”

Speaking on Kanye arrogance:

“He’s supposed to be. What is he supposed to do, not be flamboyant, not be fly, not be arrogant? Why not? I feel like why should another ni**a be insecure about another man. That’s a man; he got his own lane.”

On his could-have-been football career:

“When I started playing football in little league, all the small dudes could play, but I was too heavy. I was so focused that by the time I got to the eleventh grade, I was a blue-chip All-American. Over two years, I went from being nobody to being considered one of the top three linemen in Florida.”

On the flip side, it's Ciara. I love the cover of this one.

On her trust issues:

“It’s very hard to trust people because you really never know their motives. I’ve seen it enough times to where the person can be really cool and seem like your closest friend and they are doing something you never would imagine or expect from them, whether it’s talking about you or being around you to get information about you.”

On fellow ATLien Keri Hilson:

“I knew her back when she was really trying to get in pocket and become an artist, and I know she had been trying way longer than I had back then. Back in the day, I used to ask her to sing for me. I forgot what song she used to sing, but vocally I thought she was crazy. As a writer, I thought she was dope. We did one song together on my first album. That was back when we were kinda around each other.”

On Beyoncé comparisons:

“I know what work I put in to what I do and I know where I get my inspiration from and it’s definitely not the references that they put up on the Internet. People live for it. Negative energy travels faster than positive energy. Whoever it was, for them to dig deep down and find all those references, that’s ridiculous.”

I was really wanting her to open up about her relationship with Bow Wow... but...

Ciara Puts On A Show!

I see that Ciara is still doin the damn thang! She's on tour in London and opened up last night for Britney Spears at the O2 Arena, and from the looks of the pictures Ci Ci put on quite a show... but that's to be expected when you're trying to be bigger than Beyonce!

Ciara Photo Shoot

Here are pictures from Ciara's latest photoshoot from MTV studios. She's still looking great.

Keri Hilson Goes After Beyonce and Ciara in Turnin Me On Remix

Well I'll be Jane Brown!!! Keri Hilson is steppin into the ring of beef. Keri's latest single "Turnin me On" has a remix with T-Pain and Lil Wayne that is soooooooo fi'! That's some southern slang for those who don't know, which means it's hot!!! In the remix, Ms. Keri is goin after Beyonce and Ciara. At first I thought this was just i-net gossip/rumors.... that was until I listened to the track myself!

Check it out for ya'self!!! I'm lovin it!

Here are the words:

“I ain’t tryin’ to start no mess there’s just something on my chest that I need to get off…Your vision cloudy if you think you the best. You can dance, she can sing, but need to move it ‘to the left’.”

“She need to go have some babies. She need to sit down she fading.”

“Go head tell these folks how long I been writing your songs… I been putting you on… check the credits hoe!…If you want me you can find me in Decatur hoe.”

Ciara Named Billboard Woman of the Year

R&B singer Ciara received the Billboard Woman of the Year Award Friday night in New York City. She was also presented with some beautiful diamond earrings on top of the honor of the night.

So Ciara IS Really Upset With Vibe...

I thought this mess was resolved the other week when Editor-in-Chief Danyel Smith sent out a statement saying that Ciara did in fact pose nude for the Vibe cover and it was all her idea... but I guess not.

The R&B singer claims that she was indeed wearing underwear while taking those shots for the October Vibe cover. If you guys have seen them, the photos show Ciara with not a hint of clothing on, while covering up her goodies.

Ciara talked with MTV News and stated, that those photos are "very, very upsetting and somewhat misleading,"

"I have so much respect for Ciara, and Ciara was so happy when she pitched this idea to us, and the photos are actually striking and beautiful," Danyel Smith said during an interview with New York's KISS-FM. "It was pitched to me in a way that it was time [for her] to grow up and be beautiful and be free and be all the things she wanted to be."

So why is she now saying she didn't. What I need is for someone on the staff for Vibe, who was there for the shoot to speak out and tell us what the real deal is! Somebody lyin here, and I'm betting it is CiCi!

Ciara Not Suing Vibe.. Editor Clears It All Up

I guess Ciara isn't suing Vibe mag after all. Seems that whole little tale was just that... a tale. Vibe's Editor In Chief Danyel Smith stopped by New York radios station KISS FM to clear up all of the rumors.

The rumor was that Ciara was suing Vibe magazine for “photoshopping all her clothes off” in the recent issue. Danyel tells another story. She states that the whole thing was Ci-Ci's idea. Vibe did not photoshop her clothes off, which they have never done, can’t legally do, and would never do anyway.Danyel said she’s not going to speak for Ciara, but she does know for a fact VIBE is not being sued by her and Ciara loved the idea for the photoshoot. Apparently everyone involved loved the outcome as well

I Know You Like My Style: Taraji vs Ciara

This week, Shantee' over at Fashionista101, is featuring Taraji P. Henson, and Ciara in her weekly "Style Stealer". Taraji rocked this cute pink open-back mini dress coupled with a pair of blue suede peep toe heels to the premiere of her latest movie The Family That Prey's, while Ciara rocked the same dress, with a pair of black platform sandles just a while back to the Choice FM party.

So who's style do you like best?

Ciara Suing Vibe Magazine

Sources reveal today that songstress Ciara’s one-two-stepping Vibe magazine to court because the shady publicity - according to her - airbrushed all the clothes off of her in a recent cover photo.

The song and dance queen appears to be naked on the October Vibe cover, but sources reveal that she DID NOT pose nude and that she’s suing Vibe for making it appear as such.

So they digitally enhanced the other photos too huh? Are you kidding Ciara? Or did that "good girl" image you were so desperately trying to maintain bite you in the ass?

Ciara Does Vibe In The Buff

WOW... Ciara's gone and done it. She's captured the title of Vibe magazines Sexiest Singer Alive. How really trying to figure out how they actually came to that conclusion, but I guess it doesn't really matter. You see she's nude right? Well look at the words in small print... it reads (The Fantasy Unfolds on Pg 99). Sooooo does that mean she's showing off her GOODIES?

Let The Rumors Fly...Ciara and Philana

It's being reported that Ciara's ex manager Philana Williams, who was just recently fired by Ci-Ci's camp, may be secretly letting all of "Goodies" out the bag. Supposedly, now all of a sudden all of Ciara's business is in the street and on people's lips. Could Philana be retaliating against her for their sudden business separation by leaking private information to the internet bloggers of the black blogoshere or any blogoshere for that matter?

The recent split between Ci-Ci and Philana has been publicized by another blog site, who will remain nameless, through a series of tell-all allegations titled "The Ciara Diaries". All of this news is supposed to have Ciara upset. So they say. But the site also states that Ciara is a friend of the site... Sooooo why put your "friends" business out there like that? How trifling are you as a "friend"?

Anyways, "The Ciara Diaries" has been a three part series that makes some pretty shocking allegations. The stories chronical private details of Ciara's relationship with her alleged boyfriend rapper 50 Cent, her fallout with the man who put her on in the first place, Jazze Pha, and other details that no one knew about. And let folks tell it, Ms. Philana is behind it all.

Here is the 3rd entry for "The Ciara Diaries":

According to an insider, who is very close to Ciara, she doesn't trust her man 50 Cent. Ciara, allegedly, went through Fiddy's cell phone calling his celebrity friends, former significant others, and strippers. Rather than identify herself to them, she allegedly placed crank phone calls disguising her voice pretending to be an anonymous lover who was pregnant with his child.

When a few of these people figured out who she was, they called home boy who was naturally teed off. So teed off that he, allegedly, sent his goons down to Atlanta to repossess that Phantom automobile I told you about yesterday. So if you were wondering why Ciara was profiling in that car one minute, and the next minute it was gone - now you know. I guess when you're dealing with a child you take away her toys to teach her a lesson? Reggie Bush dumped her because he was tired of her games.

From what I'm gathering about this Philana chick, she's been in the game for a while and has a pretty nice resume to back it up. But if she's going around doing dirt like this because she get's fired, then she can cancel Christmas!
