Fresh off the heels of her recent controversy with the Pussycat Dolls, Melody Thornton has found herself embroiled in yet another public feud. The singer has accused fellow performer Ciara of copying her style in her recent photoshoot in L’Officiel Magazine. Peep her comments from her Twitter about the shots below:
Although Thornton has left the tweet on the website, she issued the following minor retraction:
Yet another artist displaying of a lack of wisdom and media savvy. Rather than focusing on preparing for what could be the start of her solo career, Thornton has already started burning bridges before she has even gotten the chance to cross them. As an act emerging from a group that is but a shell of what it used to be, she is going to have a hard time positioning herself as a force on the charts, and this behaviour is not going to support her cause.
The photos dont look alike and who cares anyway, 2 flops in the making rofl
when you say yet another artist do you mean tiffanny evans because you all defended her because it was rihanna she was hating, this time its ciara and y’all are like how dare she… hahaha yall are so transparent
Is this Melody the same one that was Nicole’s backup dancer for the past 5 years?
She’s got a nerve. Nobody even knows her to be jacking anything shes doing.
she needs to sit down somewhere. that look isnt necessarily super unique, nor is she the first to rock it.
Sam, you always preach the gospel.
Like why? such a PR fail, then she is backtracking because it’s backfiring on her. Poor pathetic thing.
uhm its not even the same if she posted the full pic you’ll def. see, Ciara’s hair, tutu and leaotard is different. only thing same is its black. OMG call the prime minister. PLEASE!
Ciara is like Beyonce when it comes to hate, actually I think Ciara gets more…
she made herself look so stupid clearly its a photoshoot so there for the Photographer tells her what to do , she didn’t pick her own outfits soooooooooooooooo.
I’ve said it from day one this chick wld go no f****** where and now she taking jabs at my girl CiCi. Melody is nothing but an after thought, if even. So who the f*** is she to be taking about someone else in the game who is actually relevant. these girls need to find better ways to get notice… Tiffany Evans (cough cough)! both talented chicks are pathetic in my eye!
Yeah, very bad move. You have to be careful when attacking Ciara or Beyonce on Twitter. lol Stans are always on duty. Get familiar back up dancer!
She knows to retract that comment lol. Maybe she only meant it in a joking way but there really wasn’t any need to say anything. She should know by now that sites like this/mediatakeout etc will pick up on it and start drama. She needs to wait until she has a hit to have people on her side because I know there are more CiCi fans than Melody fans.
Melody, I was rooting for u too girl-cute, can sing, prob coulda had a hit, but u done messed up boo boo….O Well/u still got $$$’s/
i think any artist who disses another UNESSECARILY, is setting themselves up for failure. I dont really like to say names, but (50 Cent)… If she has any hopes of becoming a viable & respected artist, this is not the way to do it. Say what you want about Ciara, which ppl already will, but Melody has a lot of work to do before she can even reach Ciara’s level in the music industry. Ciara is readying her 4th SOLO studio album, Melody was just dropped from the Pussycat Dolls a.k.a Nicole & the Pussycat Dolls. Really, do you think Ciara is even worried about this chick & her comments?… I don’t think so.
Melondy is just a lame nobody who just got kicked out of a group, what does that say about her!! Ciara is the s***.
another thing about Melody… she had a lot of ppl supporting her after her outsting from PCD, this is gonna make her loose a lot of that support…. i still wish her the best, i just think she needs to keep her mouth shut.
*yawn* They both jacked Leyomi Mizrahi. She was doing the ponytail grab for years in the underground vogueing ballroom scene. Next topic….lol
I find this hilarious because the pictures look NOTHING ALIKE. Can’t other females hold their hair up as well Melody? It’s not an uncommon pose!!!
Didn’t Beyonce do something similar with her ponytail in the Ring the Alarm video? If so, Melody was not first. Even if she was – WHO CARES? Its just a pose. Someone look into this. I don’t care enough.
MELODY HAS SOME NEVER EVEN SAYING ANYTHING ABOUT CIARA.. NO ONE KNOWS WHO THE HELL SHE IS .. SHE IS NOT GOING TO SELL AT ALL .. SHE IS A LAME ASS B**** THAT WAS IN AN OK GIRLBAND .. SHE NEEDS TO FOCUS ON HER UP COMING ALBUM THAT WILL FAIL ON THE CHARTS!!!!
That is dumb. Melody did not create that “style.” I’ve saw it heavily in the 80s. Even Madonna did it in one of her earlier videos and there are photos of her on youtube like that. There is also the NY ballroom scene which has hosted numerous commercial and underground artists, actresses, and dances rocking that style for over 30 years so its nothing new and nothing special for Melody to act like she created a “style.” As far as Ciara goes, she was just doing poses and wearing outfits the photographers told her to wear. I bet the same case was for Melody in the album booklet. Dumb.
Melody needs to go to sleep and work on her career , only thing that is alike is the pulling of hair.
The first thing I thought off when I saw the picture of Cici was Melody haha =P
1st of all, Melody’s comment was not a diss, 2nd, what she said wasn’t even that serious. You all are blowing this waaaaaaaaaaaay outta proportion. Focus on something important.
THIS B**** NEEDS TO STFU… AT THE END OF THE DAY WHAT PHOTO GOT A BETTER RESPONSE!?!?! CIARA!!!!!! LAME ASS BROAD.
NEXT!!! HOW RELEVANT IS A BACK UP DANCER, FA REAL???
HOPEFULLY CIARA STAYS IN THE STUDIO N NOT TRYNNA ADDRESS THIS AS HER RELEVANCE IS IN QUESTION TOO!!
^^ turst, Ciara NEVER addresses stuff like this. she wont even do it. she’s classy like that.
Ok so is Melody’s pose unique? I mean it’s not like she posed in an icicle box on the effin MOON or something… all she did was pull her hair and stick out her leg. Ciara isn’t even sticking up her leg.
LOL @ her retracting that TWEET! quick as hell!
oh … this chick is boring as hell… zzzz….
“ather than focusing on preparing for what could be the start of her solo career, Thornton has already started burning bridges before she has even gotten the chance to cross them.

Let the choir say AMEN!
Plus she needs to learn to control her voice. She can sing, but the runs and pitching issues spell trouble. Like she said, she’s not getting any younger. Instead of wasting time on Twitter, get your album ready for when you get kicked out of PCD (if it hasn’t happened already).
what the hell is melody doing! i mean i was ok with her but now, having diss nicole scherzinger and now CIARA, she sucks BIG TIME! i hope she gets her well deserved failure in her solo project for leaving PCD, diss Nicole, and dissing ciara. i mean, look at her! how dare she do that to my two fav singer of all times! i hope she FAILS! you suck!
the thing is the pics are not alike. second like someone said this is something done a while back with the vogueing etc. third noone is really thinking of melody when seeing this so there was no need for the comment on her part. makes her look pathetic
who is this person
pucci shut f*** up hating on 50cent lame b****
