Ciara

The Edge is reporting:

Screamfest ’07, the summer’s traveling hip-hop and r & b showcase, lived up to its name with a host of the genres’ biggest stars, obligatory stripping and shirt-tearing, a parade of radio hits and slightly naughty serenading of women called up from the audience.
There also was a surprise appearance by rap powerhouse 50 Cent during Ciara’s set (which shouldn’t do much to quell rumors the two are dating) for a quick strip-down before performing “I Get Money” for the frenzied crowd.

TMZ reported the following:

Sources tell TMZ that 50, Ciara and the posse of ten rolled up to upscale Westside haunt Brentwood Restaurant and Lounge in a fleet of cars, including a Lamborghini that 50 was driving. We’re told 50, who is eleven years older than Ciara, 21, canoodled in a booth — while the rest of the group stood guard at one large table across from them. Nice and private! 50’s crew single-handedly turned Brentwood into Brenthood!

Ciara is also Nomminated for Video Of The Year. This is a hard on who should win. They all have such creative videos. They were all different and original.

Beyonce and Shakira- I love the effects, the colors, and the jungle theme they had going.

Beyonce and Jay-Z- It was a hot song, but such a boring video. I mean it looks like Bonnie and Cylde 03 picked up where they left off with this one.

Akon and Snoop- No matter if you hated or loved the song, you ended up watching the entire video and soon you’d end up singing the song and dancin to it in the clubs. It snuck up on us at first because remember Akon had like 5 songs out and then him and Snoop at like two songs together at the time. But the video was hot, the mirrors, the girls, the dancing, the girls, and the wardbrobe of course…..oh yeah and the girls…”winks”

Gnarls Barkley- I honestly have never heard of him until now, but the clips I’ve seen from his video is why he’s nomminated. The video was more artistic, it had value, its different, very original, unique and for once there were no b*tches or h*es mentioned in the lyrics. Love the video tho.

Ciara!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Like a boy!
What can I say about this video? From beginning to end I was hooked. First of all it was in Black and White which was hot. Ciara singing like a boy and dressed like a sexy boy despite all those small rumors about her being a man, HOT! And the choreography! THE CHOREOGRAPHY! Was so hot. Lyrical dancing with some street moves, and hip hop. Reminded me of Janet Jackson’s dancing style, but it works perfect for her since that’s her mentor. The end of the video when Ciara did that back bend matrix trick, let me know she wasn’t playin. And when that part of the video came on I said, “This b*tch ain’t playin, she killin em”

I really want Ciara to get this out of all the nomminees.

My girl Ciara is nominated for 3 BET Awards including, favorite R & B Artist, BET Choice Award, and Video Of The Year.
Now I gotta speak the truth about who should win what.

Favorite R&B Artist : Ciara, Beyonce, Jennifer Hudson, Mary J Blidge and Courtney Baliey

Jen and Courtney are a “No” for me. I like Courtney but she only got one CD and I think her and Jennifer need to work more harder to be in the best category. But I will say Courtney deserves to be nominated for new artist. Jennifer has no CD out, she just did a musical people. Yes she did a beautiful job with her acting and singing but…….um what else can she do? I dont think its diffcult to play a struggling singer for one and two she hasn’t made a CD so why put her in the category?

Mary J Blidge she came back and did her thing for 06, you know when the queen comes back she comes back. But I wouldn’t say she should win that cateogory I mean hasn’t she won it before. It will be okay I’m sure its not a lost. The woman has how many grammies? I hope she wins for Runaway love, it sent an important message to young girls. And it was just a powerful ryhmes by Luda, Mary’s vocie. They got that one!

Beyonce……lord I love my gurl I really do, she seems like a humble, sweet, intelligent girl. But her CD “B-Day”,was up and down for me one minute I hated it then when her other CD “The B-Day Deluxe Verison” came out I was like,” Hey! Snap for the kids, snap for the kids” thats my part, and my song “Beautiful Liar” with Shakira. But I feel Beyonce taking that award home wouldn’t be right. Beyonce can sing and she got vocal skills that can send chills throughout your body; and then she was so busy with the “Dreamgirls” that her CD was alittle on the rocks and she whipped it up in like ten days? After Deja Vu & Ring the Alarm I was done.

With Ciara’s CD its fresh, new, you can really dance to it and not just booty shake. And her songs are a mixed of today’s music and 90’s old skool groove. And she even got some hot featured artist in there like my boo 50cent, with “I Can’t Leave Em Alone” which is a new single hittin up the radio stations. If you don’t have it you should get it. It shows how Ciara has matured since she was lockin up her goodies in a jar, it shows her becoming a beautiful, talented, woman…….

I don’t know whose gonna win but I wish all the ladies luck. And I hope they all look fierce!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
