Ciara graces the cover of the October issue of VIBE and dishes on her relationship with 50 Cent, rumors and fame. Gotta love when a celeb gets down to the nitty gritty and well…bares all. However, appearing “nude” wasn’t exactly a part of Ciara’s plan.
Why She Wore Her Birthday Suit For The Cover:
“I walked into the Vibe photo shoot very excited about making an artistic expression,” she said. “And when I saw the photos, I was a little bothered because the photos appear as if I was nude, and I wasn’t nude. I reached out to [Smith] — I sent her a letter — and I was a little upset, too, in the fact that she didn’t respond to me, and that happened prior to me reading her quote on the Internet. That definitely bothered me, just because of the fact that I wasn’t nude. I walked into the photo shoot to do an artistic photo shoot, so I was excited about that. I just didn’t like the fact that I saw the picture and now, stuff is gone.”
“When I saw the pictures, that wasn’t what was discussed or what we were going in to do, so that definitely bothered me,” she said. “I think the body is something beautiful, and I wanted to celebrate that. And unfortunately, it wasn’t exactly what it was in the photo shoot, and I’m looking forward to moving forward.”
Yikes, she should have just posed for Playboy for a fatter paycheck!
On Why Her Next Album May Shock Her Fans:
“You’re gonna get more attitude, more aggressiveness — everything is intensified. You get your sensual vibe. You’re gonna get the street, you’re gonna get the ‘hood.â€
Ciara’s Advice On Dating:
“You don’t have to sell yourself out. Take your time to get to know somebody before you involve the physical aspect…it’s just not the way to start off. It creates confusion. When you subtract those things, it allows you to focus more on who the person is.â€
Ciara’s new album “FANTASY RIDE” is set to be released December 5th.
