CIARA IN GIANT MAGAZINE

Tuesday, November 28, 2006

cic6.jpg cici4.jpg cici2.jpg

Here are some new shots of Ciara in the December issue of Giant Magazine. I’m really digging the black & white photos that David Ferrua took. Dope stuff. Even though some of these pictures are very Aaliyah-esque (as is everything else she does), you can’t deny that she HAS stepped her game up.

Here is a snippet of the article in Giant:

Article by Michael Gonzales

Twenty-one-year-old Ciara Princess Harris wasn’t even born when the video clip for Michael Jackson’s classic “Beat It” first kicked in the doors of MTV like Martin Luther King, Jr.’s soulful dream. But that hasn’t stopped the upstart singer from accepting the King of Pop as a personal icon.

“I am pretty sure any new artist you talk to will say they’re inspired by Michael Jackson,” Ciara gushes. Sitting in the semi-darkness of an SUV, zooming toward the Big E Fairgrounds in Springfield, Massachusetts, her voice is as breathy as the night air. “There was something about his passion and energy. The impact he made on music is truly amazing. When I see him performing on video, well, as an artist, he’s special to me.”

I think she looks beautiful and just like Janet she’s not a great vocalist but she is a great performer.I’v read alot of the comments and I can’t comprehend why people are getting so upset. Black folks know yall need to calm down gettin folks blood pressure and sugar up!

@BILL Yes I finally got my pic up but dammit you can’t see my face and all that resizing and shit is beyond my realm of expertise.

Ciara is in a class by herself! There only one other female performer who can bring it to her! That would be….ah….what’s the chicks name who use to be lead singer for Destiny’s Child? Oh yeah! Beyonce’ Knowles!

Happy Birthday, Mika!

compton chick23 the reason why ur never gonna make it to a happy future bcoz ur an idiot. well its obvious ur vey poor thats y u will rather spend on cheap ass albums than a classy 1 like ciara. y not count how many haters message n fan messages u’d find out that hating dosent matter coz ci knows how to rock da crowd. watever u say about ciaRA shall return to papa ur mama n fucking gran parents. retarded bitch/. havent u heard she’s got the number1 song on bet!(how do like that) lol!
and for other haters here’s a lil advice GET A DAMN LIFE!!! u cant bring her down.
ppl jus like to hate without reading the story behind da news. ciara’s sed it 10000000 times wen it comes to vocal side she’s not a whitney.she found herself.
y’all can go molest ur fucking sis n bros like micheal jackson did, or geta face surgery jus like tha fat bitch janet or die jus like aaliyah or hate on rihanna jus liike beyonce.

#153, I LISTEN TO THE WORDS ON BDAY AND ALL I HEARD WERE THINGS JAY Z WOULD SAY IF HE COULD SING. NO QUESTION SHE’S A GOOD SINGER. HOWEVER AS FOR THE WORDS SHE DOES WHATEVER IS HOT AT THE TIME. SHE’S USING JAY’S SLANG HIS ARROGANT THEME AND ANYTHING TO SOUND HIP OR COOL. AND I’M SORRY IRREPLACEABLE IS CORNY.

I LIKE ARTIST THAT GIVE THEMSELVES NOT A FAKE IMITATION. AS LONG AS IT COMES FROM WITH IN. I DON’T THINK ALICIA KEYS IS THE BEST SINGER BUT I FEEL HER. BEYONCE’S WORDS ARE NOT DEEP. TO HER CREDIT MOST OF THE SONGS ON BDAY ARE NOT REALLY WRITTEN BY HER. SHE’S MORE RESPONSIBLE THE THE ‘CHECK ON IT’ TYPE LYRICS.

THERE’S JUST NO PLACE FOR HER IN MY MUSIC ARSENAL ANYMORE. IF I WANT TO HEAR A VOICE I CAN FEEL I PICK UP MY MARY MY LIFE ALBUM OR THAT KEISHA COLE JOINT. IF I WANT FEEL GOOD MUSIC I CAN DANCE TO OR GOOD POP MUSIC WITH A GHETTO APPEAL I PICK UP MY CIARA. IF I WANNA LISTEN TO SOME HAIR ON MY NECK STANDING VOCALS I’LL POP IN AN OLD WHITNEY OR MARIAH OR FANTASIA. IF I WANT DEEP LYRICS, I’LL HOLLA AT ALICIA OR KEISHA, MARIAH….IF I WANT MY GOOD SOUL SOUNDING MUSIC TO GROOVE AND JUST CHILL I’LL HOLLA AT D’ANGELO, JON B, ROBIN THICKE, AMEL, …THAT REALLY LEAVES NO PLACE FOR BEYONCE

WELL, OKAY NOW I WILL WATCH A CRAZY IN LOVE PERFORMANCE CAUSE THE GIRL CAN POP HER BOOTEEEEY

It’s fine to say how you feel but there should be a limit to the tackiness. It’s sad to see some people have to result to such tackiness to try and get their point across.

The album is pretty good. C.R.U.S.H, Promise, My Love and Can’t Leave Em are my favorite tracks. I like the bass music influence that style of music fits Ciara. She reminds me of Aaliyah n Janet sumtimes but I think she kind of can’t help that considering she grew up probably seeing them on tv and listening 2 their music. The same way Michael Jackson & Prince are clearly influenced by James Brown & Little Richard. Every musician is influenced by other musicians sumhow you can’t fault her for that. I don’t think shes a biter or a swagger jacker she’s just evolving and trying to find herself. She’s gonna b the Janet or Aaliyah 2 a new generation of fans and eventually sum1 will follow in Ciara’s footsteps.

Ashanti’s coming and it’s gone be fire. She has a definite following. She’s cute and she has a presence about her. She’ll need to make some serious promotions though, and step her none dancin ass up, but i think she’ll be good with this next cd. But if she comes out with some corny shit, she can just ride right on off a fuckin cliff with her career.

beyonce’s day is gone, point blank, enough said. Bitch has fell off, and she’s going to go downhill from here..only people that will stay jockin her are the dumb illiterate bitches with no life, looking for a leader. People are fast growing tired of her illiterate ass, and her illiterate tunes with all them bells and whistles for distraction. But she will always have followers because for the fat hippy girls, she is their hero.

Ciara is coming up. She has reinvented herself and it’s definitely an upgrade. She’s always been a pretty girl (no doubt she’s all women), and shes now sexy as hell. and she can dance her ass off, real dancing, and she can actually put sentences together that make sense.

Alicia is taking a break right now, but best believe when she comes back, it’s gone be deep. Not to mention she’s beautiful.

Rhianna is cute and she’ll be around a minute. I think she’ll get better, and the next cd will be better. She’s not the best singer, but she’s obvious got something going, she’s doing it, touring and all.

Janet will always be the shit till the day she leaves this earth. She has set the pace for all the bitches out now, they can only hope to have a career like hers, whether you feel she can sing or dance or not. It’s obvious she’s had something, bitch been out for three damn decades, and that speaks louder than any hate that stupid mutherfuckers spill over this blog.

@Marcusmax you are dumb as shit!!!! How you gonna say beyonce day is gone when after TWELVE weeks B’DAY IS NUMBER 6 ON THE ALBUM CHARTS?!?!!?!?! SIT THE FUCK DOWN WITH YA LAME ASS SELF AND GET YOUR FACTS STRAIGHT DUMBASS! FOR EVERY ONE PERSON THAT DOES NOT LIKE BEE THERE ARE TEN TIMES MORE PEOPLE THAT DO!!!! SHE HAS ONE OF THE HIGHEST SELLING ALBUMS OF THE YEAR!!!!! SMH@ HATERS THINKING THIS IS THE END OF BEYONCE. SAY ALL YOU WANT BUT BEE ALWAYS GETS THE LAST LAUGH! PEOPLE BEEN WAITING FOR HER TO FALL SINCE 1997 AND IN 2007 SHE IS ABOUT TO WIN AN OSCAR!!! SO FUCK YALL HATERS!!!

Anyways, enough of my rant. Ciara looks very nice in the photos, this is the best I’ve seen of her so far. I got her last album but I didn’t like it too much. She has impressed me so far with promise and the album looks like it’s going to be good, I am definitely gonna get it!

I love compton_chick23 because she admits she’s a hater which alot of people on here cant do *cough* bill.

But anyway you gotta appreciate compton chick she’s funnie to me, none of her negative post pisses me off.
Because first of all I dont know ciara,second of all ciara is not my love partner nor is she a family member,and third of all what money has ciara given me;but dont get it twisted Im still one of ciara’s biggest fans thats my girl she’s just not the best.

But anyway back to compton_chick23 your so funnie like I said before,as you can see alot of people call you PATHETIC,LOSER,FAT,DARK,UGLY which is stuff fat ugly dirty people do [s hate on others that are suceeding their dreams]but I wont call you one name in the book because I dont know you so I cant tell if your fat dirty or black so all I do is sit back and laugh at you its really funnie how you always call ciara a man and say she cant sing and call her talentless its just so hilirous.

NEVER STOP HATIN GIRL NOT ONLY I NEED YOU TO MAKE ME LAUGH WHEN IM SAD:BUT CIARA NEEDS YOU TO MAKE HER STONGER HALLA MY DEAR.

Artists get compared to other artists all the time and most of the time its taken as a compliment. Sometimes the comparison is ridiculous and should not be, but i think Ciara is talented. She can dance her butt off and her voice is pretty. It ain’t no Beyonce but that’s what makes everyone different and special in their own way. If everyone sounded the same and could belt out all those notes all the time then what kind of variety would we have when it comes to entertainers and music?
