It’s been a minute since we last posted anything on Ciara so I thought I would share these candids with you all.Ciara was spotted last night out on the town taking in the vibes at Rich Boy’s album release party.We love CiCi and all but sista could have thrown on some concealer before she left the house.Girlfriend is a star now and needs to recognize that cameras will always be on her when she steps outside the confines of her home.On a high note- the sistas shoes are fierce and totally save her outfit.Check her out below and click over to participate in our poll of the day.
Rumor has it that while hosting TRL last week Ciara was asked who she would like to have a dance off against and the sista said none other than Janet Jackson and Beyonce.Now I recognize CiCi is a powerhouse on the dance floor and could probably dance circles around Beyonce, but I think Janet may be a little bit out of her league.Then again, Beyonce has stepped up her dance game as of late and may be able to take Ciara out with one swift Booty Pop.Anyway, that is my opinion and you can share yours as well by participating in our poll below.
Poll Question Of The Day
I love Beyonce’s dancing but think people overlook her because she isn’t a choreographed dancer liks Janet or a street dancer like Ciara.Beyonce is an emotional and sexually charged dancer like Tina Turner and that to me is more natural than Ciara or Janet.
Wow, that was a bold response. Ciara could never out dance Janet and would have a seriously hard time competing with Beyonce’s innate sex appeal. All Beyonce has to do is bend over and that’ll be a rap for Ms. Ciara :lol2:
By the way, is it just me or does Ciara and Lloyd resemble each other :???:
Dag Ciara doesn’t have a vote yet.I can’t say I’m shocked though.I never liked her stiff robotic dancing in the first place.She lacks the overall stage presense of Janet and sex appeal of Beyonce.I won’t say she can’t cut a rug cause she can.I just personally don’t dig her style.
Please, she didn’t mention Janet because she thinks she can beat her, Janet is her idol, and who else can she think about besides Janet? Beyonce it’s only because she has rythm, and besides those two Ciara couldn’t have chosen anyone else. Oh maybe Nicole Scherzinger. This chick is a danger!
[quote comment="4819"]Nicole Scherzinger. This chick is a danger![/quote]To who?
I think Ciara would win a dance off. I think she’s alittle more street than Janet. And Ciara can do those odd hovering moves, that would rap it up. Janet would have won in the 90’s against AAliyah but in 2007 Ciara does way more difficult stuff. And Beyonce doesn’t really do that type of dancing, she sings. If it were a vocal sing off she would win that because let’s be honest Ciara and Janet aren’t the strongest vocalists.
Oh and yeah to DES! It’s the nose…they do look a like, they have the same nose, lol. She shouldn’t wear her hair back like that. Nose looks bigger, it’s a black thing though. We claim the big nose in the name of Jesus, lol.
I think Janet would kill them both. I don’t think Beyonce is ok. I don’t think she is that great of a dancer. All that sexual stuff looks like she possesed. I like Ciara’s style and I would love to see her an janet dance any day :dance2:
And yes, she is resembling young Lloyd. :lol: Those pics of her are not flattering. However, I don’t know why people are hard on her, I think she is doing a good job. She just has a different style :hmph:
Pardon the Error above, I meant to say “I think Beyonce IS OK” :lol:
Ciara looks cute and she looks like Wanda Sykes (say she don’t, I dare you)
Ciara is the worst performer out of the three.Her performances often fall flat and she just bores me to tears.Both Janet and Beyonce can easily smoke her on stage.I honestly cannot think of any dancer Ciara who Ciara could smoke.She is just too darn boring. :thumbsdown:
Really Dana, you think she’s boring? Well to each its own. I guess she gets redundant after while, she’ll learn to change up
ciara better dancer then the other 2 with ease, beyonce great but dont have ci skillz .. janet back prolly break if she start tryin ci dance routines. real talk
:iagree:
No Coco I don’t agree at all with you. Janet 1 Beyonce 2 Ciara 3.
Janet would break? That was obviously said because of her age.Tita Turner was well into her 50’s and was still selling out stadiums and dancing her butt off.At 40 Janet is hardly old and crippled and watching her performances on the Today Show and The Billboard Awards are proof of that.Yes Janet is the oldest but she’s also the most experienced and she has mastered the stage.Ciara has yet to do any of that which is why her performances may be filled with fly steps but the crowd be dead quiet.This is also why I put Beyonce above her.Bey can move the crowd while Ciara can only move her feet.
heee :hater:it aint:stop: fare i think cici is tha best out of them alll janet is still busy doing her 90 dance and beyonce is still busy doing her ooh o o oh mami dance i gotta sayy cici any day any time cuzzz she gott moves men damn:dance::grin:
^ Your post is as stupid and ignorant as your username. :lol2:
Janet ain’t breakin nothin. I can’t believe you are raggin on her age. She is in great shape, probably better than you and I. Leave the woman alone :hmph:
Josie just watch. She’s a danger to most R&B artists out. This chick is phenomenal, she can dance and is charismatic, and her dancing as a solo will be choregraphed. Not only is every producer sweating to make her album the best thing of 07 but I’ve seen her on rehearsal. Plus, this chick about to produce a Broadway project. Forget about PCD, her work is far beyond that, she’s gonna hurt the game when she comes out.
Why are White girls all of a sudden a threat to the R&B game? What is PCD as a whole, Nelly Furtado and Fergie except knock offs of Black girls? Why do you think they all cozy up to the Black producers and song writers and just like fools we all lap up the bullish that they lay down.
I have never personally seen Nicole perform except for when she was part of Eden’s Crush and she wasn’t the second coming of Christ then and I doubt she is now.
She is mildly attractive and that alone will help her just as it has helped Christina Aguilera, Fergie and many other White females today get support from Black men like Polow tha Don, Timbaland, and Puffy.
These men are not rushing to work with her because she is soooo talented, but because they think she has the right image to sell to Whites and Blacks alike.
I know this is off topic but it just leads me to talk about how Blacks are selling out our style and musical culture to White folks while they do everything they can to keep us out of their genres.
When will we learn?
Well said Josi.By the way did anyone besides me notice all the black blogs recently started running a story of that White U.K singer who is being hailed as the next big thing in soul music? Why is some White person always the next big thing in Black music especially in the U.K? Everyone ran that **** except for this blog and I bet it’s because they knew a site dedicated to Black women would not run that garbage.I am convinced that promotional companies contact these blogs and either ask or pay them to promote White soul artists to Black people.Like you said Josi we are just selling out our culture to the highest White bidder that comes along.
Please Janet or Beyonce wouldn’t outdance Janet or Beyonce. However, I think she mentioned those out of respect. I think to her they can dance which is why she would want to battle them.
lol Ciara looks like the comedian Wanda to me, you know the one who played in that Chris Rock movie as the maid.
I think Ciara looks cute. Nothing was wrong with her outfit and the boots are fierce.
Debra, I watched the trl epsiode where omarion asked her what female dancer would she like to challenge and ciara did not say beyonce or janet, she did not say anyone it was the audience who shouted out janet first then beyonce.
Beyonc does not dance she strip teases, has seizures on stage, flips her lacefront wig around and shakes her booty……..that’s it. Janet is old, 40 years old tryna have a danceoff with a 21 year old is ridiculous, Ciara would murder both beyonce and janet on the dancefloor.

PREACH!! :thumbsup: You can add Justin Timberfake and Eminem to that list of artists who exploit black culture.
My post was deleted by staff because I rode in on the short yellow bus.

PREACH!! :thumbsup: You can add Justin Timberfake and Eminem to that list of artists who exploit black culture.[/quote]I have been saying this for years also.From the time Britney and Justin hit the scene I saw them as nothing but RAPERS of Michael and Janet Jackson’s style.I also knew Eminem would go on to become the most successful rapper ever because history has shown us all this before.Whites love our flava but love it even more when one of them can copy it.
Back in the day Whites had to steal our style but today we just give it away.We run to teach them how to be like us and then make twice as much money in the process.Smokey Robinson would have never ditched the Black artsists of Motown to run off and help Elvis and the other White artists jack our very culture.
Timabaland has done just that though and so have many other BLACK MALE producers and writers.I almost gagged when I read Timbaland say he wanted to SAVE Britney and asked Justin if he would mind if he worked with her? Why the hell is Timbaland who is the MASTERMIND of all that schit asking Justin if it’s ok with him? Is Justin his master? He made Justin not vise versa. :mad:
Nicole isn’t white, she’s mixed with indian and maybe more, but she’s a mixed chick from Hawai. She’s not white like Kathie Holmes for example. And she’s not white in white people’s world either! You can have 5% of another race’s blood in you whites don’t see you white.
I couldn’t care less about Justin, Fergie, Eminem, Nelly Furtado, or even Joss Stone, I’ve always thought they were below average, overrated and overexposed only because they were white.
So stop assuming things about people just because they like one or two “clear” folks. I happen to love Teena Mari too, and Jon B as well. No I don’t run after what’s white just because they’re white, but Nicole’s talent (even if she ain’t white) is, imo, incredible. Nicole improved drastically from her Eden’s Crush days, that’s why she’s the leader of her group. The black girl of PCD is a great vocalist too. ALL THE WHITE GIRLS of PCD are talentless. I don’t CARE for PCD I’m only cool with Nicole, and it has nothing to do with her looks or skin color. I’ve NEVER talked about her looks in my previous posts. Sure we should accept our own first, that’s what I’ve always done, but I won’t overly discriminate either.
With all due respect, you, or anyone else thinking I’m easily blinded by a clear skin, don’t know me enough to assume who I support and what are my criteria to support them.
I think Ciara looked just fine. Her face looked a little dry, but she was very cute. But I think I like that fact that she isn’t afraid to go out with no make-up, unlike some artists who have to cake it on before they leave the house. I’m a fan of Ciara and I love her music. And to be honest I think she would destroy Janet and Beyonce in a dance off. I think it would be really hard for Janet to keep up with Ciara due to the fact that Ciara can also freestyle when dancing. I don’t really think Janet can. I could be wrong, but hey I don’t follow Janet’s career so I wouldn’t know. As far as Beyonce? Beyonce is only good for hitting notes and nothing else. I get tired of her popping that booty, doing some type of voodoo dancing, and then humping the floor to further prove her ‘dancing skills’. I’ll just put it this way, Beyonce cannot dance to save her life. And if her style of dancing is considered ’sexy and alive’, then I can just go to a strip club to see women do the same thing.
I won’t get into major detail about whites always downing us for being who we are, but will copy to make money. It will always be that way. They say ebonics makes people sound trashy, yet they can speak it and somehow be ‘enlightened’. They will say that we have no true rhythm [you know, that rhythm white folks supposedly created when they also created jazz and rock and roll *rolls eyes*] or class in music, but they will pump the most degrading music from their cars i.e a lot of this mess we call rap. So hey it’s pratically a situation where we have to overlook ignorant people period. Because just like they are using us to make their money, so are the black folks who claim to love their own people. I don’t trust either from that category.
Some people “purposely” love to change a scenario until what really happen. I watch TRL that day CIARA never mention BEYONCE OR JANET. the audience were the people who were saying ,”Beyonce and Janet,” She was like that would be cool. People need to stop making up things,just to have a juicy story. Geez!
this is to Josey, NELLY fURTADO IS PORTUGUESE NOT WHITE.
NICOLE SCHERZINGER(LEAD SINGER OF ***** CAT DOLLS) IS ONLY 1/4 WHITE DAD-FILIPNO, MOTHER-HAWAIIAIN/RUSSIAN, SHE’S MAJORITY FILIPINA
I BELIEVE THAT BLACKS SHOULD BE HAPPY FOR OTHER BLACK SUCCESSFUL ENTERTAINERS. I KNOW THAT YOU DON’T HAVE TO LIKE A PERSON MUSIC OR STYLE, BUT BE HAPPY FOR THEM. I SEE MY PEOPLE DO SILLY THINGS OR WHATEVER, BUT I WILL NEVER PUT THEM DOWN REGARDLESS.
MUCH LOVE TO EVERYONE!
ARRIVEDERCI!
ITALIANA MAMA GIA
I asked my boyfriend to answer the question about who the better dancer is and well he said he could not because everyone of them are different. CICI should have thought about that before she said that. Maybe she should have picked the ” CHicken noodle soup chick or Rihanna. I recently watched Beyonce from the front row @ the rodeo and well she only does sexy, teasing moves. ( you can’t compare this to CICI unless you talking about the promise video)
Secondly.. janet is well ..SHE IS JANET Jackson for goodness sake.. CIARA would probably do better against aailyah..then again she might tie
Ciara can’t be touch when it comes to dancing. The girl is mad sick on the dance floor. Get Up Video is where the evolution began. Promise Video was tag to sexy for under age viewing. Like A Boy was fierce,how low can she bend her back. Ciara is dance floor royality.Real beauty come without make-up. Ciara looks beautiful all natural. She is at home in the ATL IT IS WHAT IT IS
@ Gia: Nelly Furtado and Nicole Schellinger are not Black.They are foreigners attaching themselves to Black folks to steal and leech off of our culture because they do not have one of their own.So I don’t have to be happy for anyone who isn’t like me because history has taught me and my people time and time again that when others come sniffing around it is to take and never to give.
Whites and other races don’t allow us to leech off of their culture, but then we never try to either.We got the style and flava the whole world wants to emulate but we should not be so willing to teach OUTSIDERS how be like us only to have them eventually take over and push us out.
So you can take that ITALIANA MAMA GIA ish and stick it where the sun don’t shine.
Get your own style and stop trying to be like us, sing like us and dance like us all while hating us.
Gia needs to got sit her fake Italiano *** down cause she apparently has no knowledge of simple geography.
Can someone tell me how you are not White and are from Portugal? What are the Portuguese then… Hispanic, Black, what?
Same goes for Nicole.She is no parts Black or African? Russians are White people dumb ***.Stop referring to people by their homeland as if saying someone who is Russian and French are not the same? They are the same.They have White skin.The language may be different but racially they are the same.
Notice how to hide from the fact that she knows that these artists are jacking our style she tries to remove their ethnicity and actually refers to them as being Black.I have seen that trick used for Latin people but never Whites and Asians.
And why is an Italian chick hanging out on our sites anyway especially one for Black women? Cause like Josie said they lack any kind of artistic culture of their own.They have culture but it isn’t popular culture and it doesn’t sell like Black culture does.So they just wallow up under us trying to soak up all our juices and flavor.
All these Whites are trying to be the next Janet and Michael and Beyonce but never will be cause yall just don’t have it and never will. :dance: :dance1: :dance2:
I really hate it when the comments have nothing to do with the original post but it must be said…Portugal was occupied first by the romans and then, for a loooong time by the MOORS until the colonial era when the Spanish took over. Therefore Portugese people are not white. Hispanic at best. And Filipinos are considered the “black of the asian world”. I didn’t make that up, the asians did. So Nelly and Nicole can say their not white if they want to. Besides, why hate on somebody for liking black music and black culture. The whole point of culture is to share it. Are you saying that black people can only do black music and white people can only do white music? Look at the tags on the clothes in your closet. Are there only black designers in there? They why are you all up in “their” s#@t? :hmph:
Back on point…Ciara is the best. She can add more street dances, current moves and freestyle into her choreography than Janet (who really is on her own plain to begin with) and Beyonce…well she’s an ENTERTAINER, not so much a dancer. She puts on a great show, but be honest, it’s not because you are wowed by her moves. Being an 80’s junkie i judge my dancing by one major rule “would you want to see her do that standing on a cardboard dance floor?” If you can’t say yes, she’s not really dancing! :banana:
Nakia you are an idiot and obviously a child.Only the young and dumb do not understand what has been said here.Our culture should not be for sale to vultures who look to use us.Whites especially have ripped off our culture and now we are helping them to loot us.
As for your geography/history lesson.Take that trash back to wherever you got it from.Point black neither of them tricks are Black, you know it, we know it and they know it.They just wanna sing and dance Black cause their backgrounds and culture offer nothing of value.
Black culture and style is popular culture but as always AmeriKKKa wants to remove the Black and put other colors in to deny our impact on the world but some of us can see the game and won’t be supporting it.
If you are Black some day you will understand.20 years from now when you read the paper or turn on the tv only to see it being reported that Eminem started rap music, then and only then will you understand.When MTV tells you that Britney Spears is the video dance diva then you will understand.
Ask anyone who is old enough to tell you about rock’n roll and maybe then you will understand.
