Ciara is known to sit court side on the regular flaunting her designer shoes and handbags, but could CiCi possibly be a future “basketball wife”?
The sexy songstress was spotted last night at the NY Knicks game as she cheered on her new boo.
[Sidebar: First Keyshia, then Monica now Ciara? I think I see a trend developing...]
I posed the question a few months ago of >> “Has Ciara Snagged Her A Baller?” after hearing that Ciara was dating Amare’ Stoudemire of the New York Knicks.
Well apparently the answer is “yes” (to the snagging part at least)…
Amare’ and Ciara were spotted out recently on a romantic date and she can thank her BFF LaLa Vasquez for the “hook up”!
Details below:
Word on the curb is that Amare’ wants him some Ciara and the couple has been seen out and about after each Knicks game. The pair even double dates with a few married bballers like LaLa and her hubby Carmelo…. and you know what that means!
I think things may be getting serious between these two…
According to the NYPost,
Knicks star Amar’e Stoudemire has set his sights on Grammy-winning singer and model Ciara.
New York’s hottest sports hero has been spotted dining out with the stunning songbird in recent weeks, and on Monday night, the pair shared dinner at STK with a group of 15, including fellow Knick Carmelo Anthony and his wife, LaLa Vazquez. But sources tell us Amar’e and Ciara have also been seen together alone at the restaurant and at other Meatpacking hot spots.
One said, “Ciara is best friends with LaLa and has been attending Knicks games with her, including Monday’s game. Through Melo and LaLa, her friendship with Amar’e has developed. They have been seen out together on numerous occasions.”
One spy said Ciara and Amar’e had dinner at STK alone together two weeks ago, when Amar’e was overheard asking for a private table as they arrived. They’ve also been spotted at The Collective.
Five-time Grammy nominee Ciara has released three albums and had hits including “Love Sex Magic” with Justin Timberlake. She previously dated Bow Wow and has been linked to 50 Cent. A rumor linking her to Miami Heat star LeBron James in January was denied.
A rep for Stoudemire told us, “I know that they are friends,” but declined to comment further. But a source close to the team added, “Ciara is extremely close to LaLa and always sits with her in Carmelo’s seats at the games. Ciara has become friends with Amar’e because they are all spending time together.” Reps for Ciara didn’t get back to us.
Last night, the Knicks threw an official “Welcome to New York” party for Carmelo at Abe & Arthur’s.
Sources said the team booked a private room for the 75-person bash and ordered a three-tier cake decorated with Melo’s jersey, yellow taxi cabs and the New York skyline.

hahahahahahahahahaha good lord she has no recording career right now might as well make a “comeback” some other way
o_O
They make a cute couple! Hope it works out for them!
YES SHE COULD I THINK SO
ok
I wish Shaunie would stop putting groupies on the show and put some real wives on there. OMG…Ciara good luck with that because this show business stuff isn’t quite working.
MUSIC IS NOT HER ONLY OPTION FOR MAKING MONEY BUT I BELIEVE THAT SHE HAS MADE ENOUGH MONEY TO LIVE COMFORTABLE FOR A WHILE AND CHILL WHILE EVERYONE THAT’S DOGGING HER OUT HAS TO WORK A 9-5 CONSTANTLY!!!! WE WILL GET FARTHER IN LIFE IF WE UPLIFT EACH OTHER INSTEAD OF TEARING OTHERS DOWN!!!!
I wish her luck! Hope she actually marries and not just be “wifey”
At least this girl has had success and had the opportunity to do things an average person will never get to experience. If she is dating him, I just hope she’s happy. A basketball wife maybe, but I’m sure she’ll be one of the classy ones like Lala.
[...] wish Ciara well. She needs to find her niche within the Industry. Though according to reports, Ciara is getting cozy with NBA NY Knicks star Amare Stoudemire. Not bad [...]
amare has been rumored wit many chicks so i dont kno. good for her if she got him but idk. cici enjoy yaself, hope it doesnt end up like it did wit 50. lol
Come on dang, they have only been on a few dates and already folks is talking marriage. Remember he’s a NBA baller who can have alot of women if he chooses just because of his bank account.
Wasn’t he choppin’ down Amber Rose not long ago? Man these folks just move from one piece of azz to the next. No wonder HIV so high among black folk. He’s cute but something about him just screams "HO!" to me. Ciara could do better.
[...] hearing about CiCi and her new basketballer boo can’t be helping matters. Po Bow Wow. *sigh* Share In Atlanta Gossip,Do You See [...]
[...] guess Monica started a new trend. Maybe… just maybe… CiCi will be the next ‘basketball wife’ after [...]
I WOULD LOVE TO SEE THAT CAKE
