Ciara joined forces with the “Make-a-Wish” foundation to make a little girl’s wish come true. Princess, a sickle-cell anemia patient and Ciara’s biggest fan, was granted her wish to cut a few dance moves with the superstar. When Ciara walked through the door, all the little girl could do was sit in amazement as she stared at her idol. When asked what she wanted to do, she responded “Dance!”

Ciara covers the December 2008 issue of Right-On magazine with somewhat of a different look. She is really going all out with her “Go Girl” glamour image. Love it! Especially the throwback POW! doorknocker earrings created by Melody Ehsani. The photo was captured by Atlanta celebrity photographer Derek Blanks.
Ciara also took a moment yesterday to share her election night memories of Barack Obama’s historic win:
The 23-year-old spent election night going back and forth from inside an Atlanta rehearsal studio to the hallway to check the results. “Finally, when rehearsals were over I just sat in the lobby area where the TVs are and watched the speeches. Just took it all in.
“I’ve just been feeling this sense of pride, like for days now,” she said. “Not just because of the history of the first black president — but because I just believe he will be a great president. Black people didn’t just vote for him, all ethnicities did. And I think that’s because Barack Obama sees us all as one. All Americans.
“I didn’t cry last night when I was watching his speech, but when I was driving here to rehearsal today, they were playing it on the radio with [contemporary gospel singer] Marvin Sapp’s ‘Never Would Have Made It’ underneath, and I just started boo-hooing.” (source)

I work for one of the 3 artists (not telling which, I want to stay anonymous) im a loyal reader here. I just want to give some useful info out that you might find helpful.
50 cent kicked Ciara to the curb a little before her birthday. thats why shes been soundin’ a little sad in her interviews whenever they asked about 50 Cent. in case youre wondering those cars Ciara have (the Phantom/Lamborghini) she still have those. thats because theyre RENTED!!! Ciara wants everybody to keep talkin’ about her so she runs with the rumors people give and add more fire to the fuel.
Since 50 cent and Ciara is over. 50 cent been hugged up on Lola Luv, his new wifey. there was a concert here in the A a few weeks ago and a few celebrities came out to show support at the Janet Jackson Rock Witchu Tour..including.. Bow Wow and Ciara, yeah you heard it right. both of them was in the VIP section. not only did they meet up they also talked and even hugged when they greeted each other.

I thought i’d drop you a few quick flix of Ciara looking amazing at the 2008 BET Hip Hop Awards. The awards show was held last night at the Boisfeuillet Jones Civic Center in Atlanta, Georgia. BET granted me full media access to the show and I “micro blogged” live play-by-play action last night on Twitter. I also covered a few parties and will be posting more pics soon.

Bow wow recently hit up a radio station and discussed the status of his lovelife. He touched on his relationship(s) with Angela Simmons, Ciara and Superhead. When asked specifically about is current status, LIl’ Ike insists that he and Angela are just friends. He also mentioned that Ciara is his mom’s favorite and that Karrine “Superhead” Steffans could NEVER be the mother of his child. For those of you who aspire to be Shad’s next beard love interest, he also hinted on a few traits he desires.
