Following her epic showing on Ellen earlier this week, Ciara brought her stage-show spectacle to the ‘Lopez Tonight’ stage moments ago. The 25 year old turned in another high octane performance of ‘Gimmie Dat’.
Check out Ciara in action below…
Lord, that performance was everything! Snap, crackle, and pop!
If there is one thing to salvage from the carnage that has been this ‘Basic Instinct’ project, it’s Ms. Harris’ amazing performances. As this week has reaffirmed, there simply isn’t anyone today who can do what she does – at least from a stage-show perspective. No one. Ciara is bringing award show stez to television, something artists rarely do.
While ‘the album’s projected numbers show that it’ll be hitting a bargain-bin near you soon, one can only hope such amazing performances garner her the recognition she deserves. Therefore, creating way for a commercial comeback somewhere down the line. Fingers crossed all, ultimately, plays out well.
cute.
i really LOVE this woman when she’s on stage. KILLED IT!!!
WOW. I’m not even a huge fan, but I loved all her albums thus far.
Her performances NEVER cease to amaze me.
GO CICI. Really good performance, think she get a top 15 album chart, HOPEFULLY!
Ciara is just an amazing performer. Phenomenal.
Best female performer in the game, HANDS DOWN.
George Lopez is a perv lol
yess she did her f****** thing thats what she was saying about touring and performing this can help build her base back upp thats why i like her she is a fighter and i f****** love her personality lmao she is so funny
i told Y’ALL SHES LETTIN KERI HILSON HAVE IT.. AND MTV BET ARE KICKING THEMSLEVES RIGHT NOW… THIS IS AWARD SHOW LEVEL PERFOMNCE AND THAT CROWD LOVED HER. SHE IS THE NEXT BLACK ICON .. JANET JACKSON SHOULD BE SO PROUD .. SERIOUSLY. ITS LIKE CIARA IS HER DAUGHTER.. SERIOUSLY.. CIARA IS AN AMAZING TALENT NOT EVEN BRITNEY SPEARS CAN HOLD DOWN LIKE CIARA. BEYONCES GOOD BUT SHE CANT OUT PERFORM CIARA AND RIHANNA IS A BEAUTY MANNEQUIN ON STAGE.. ITS LIKE SHES MODELLING THE CLOTHES WHILE SHES ON STAGE
the girl needs to tour, RIGHT NOW ! Imma pay big bucks to see her, she’s amazing on stage, she shoulda performd on SNL, GMA, Today Show and all those shows with Gimme dat, those sale numbers would have been bigger.
YESSS B**** A BASIC INSTINCT WORLD TOUR.. AND RELEASE A DVD WITH IT!!!! YESSSSSSSS PUT URSELF OUT THERE MORE CIARA
Janet Jackson gave birth to this child!!!!!!!!!
now i’ll give cici her props..SHE CAN DANCE HER ASS OFF but calling her the best female performer in the game!! naw that title still belongs to my girl bey!! i dont give a damn what yall h*** say..when i think of a performer i think of someone that can DANCE and SING, which yall all know cici can not do…bey can do all the moves cici does but can cici ever sound like bey live??? hmm..i dont think so!
Okay, this was AWESOME. wow… Im not even a fan of the song, but WOW… she is s*** as heell, and really awesome on stage. LIKE
If an artist can make u start liking a song, that u kinda hate, through her performance, then u know its good….
if only she could ssaaang she would be EPIC…but there is always that nagging flaw man…other then that..her dancing was awesome..
@TRACI SUMMERS
HUN I AGREE W/EVERYTHING THAT YEW SAID, BUT. FOR SHADE SAKES, LETS NOT START COMPARING AND TURN THIS MAGNIFICENT POST INTEW A CRIME SCENE W/THE RIHMEDIAL AND BeROYALce STANS.
WITH THAT SAID…..
SNATTTTTCCCCCHHHHHHHHEEEEEDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD!
PEOPLE ASK US CIARA STANS HOW COULD WE CHOICE TEW STAN FOR HER AFTER ALL THIS TIME, AND ALL THE LET DOWNS.
MY ANSWER IS POSTED ABOVE. WETHER YEW THINK SHE’S THIS GENERATIONS PERFORMANCE QUEEN (waits for Bey Stans), OR YEW THINK SHE’S A HOOD KNOCKOFF OF JANET JACKSON, M Y F A V B R I N G S I T L I V E! AND ALWAYS HAS.
ON THE DOWN SIDE OF THINGS, IM NOT SURE WHAT ELSE SHE HAS PLANNED FOR TV. I KNOW SHE TWEETED ABOUT JIMMY KIMMEL AND FALLON BUT I HAVEN’T SEEN ANYTHING ABOUT IT SINCE. MO’NIQUE SHOW WILL AIR ON THE 21ST OF NEXT WEEK. AND SHE’S DOING BIG JAM IN CHICAGO THIS SUNDAY. BUT IDK OF ANYTHING AFTER THAT.
IF HER US PROMO ENDS THERE THAN SHE NEEDS TEW GO TEW THE UK AND PERFORM ON SOMETHING THERE FOR HER UK FANS. ITS THE ONLY PLACE SHE HASN’T BEEN. JIVE JUST DOESN’T NEED TEW GIVE UP ON THIS ALBUM LIKE THEY DID FANTASY RIDE WHICH WAS THE BETTER ALBUM imo.
THE NEXT SINGLE SHOULD AND WILL BE TURN IT UP FEAT USHER WHICH IS #52 ON ITUNES MAIN SINGLES CHART. W/THAT WE’LL GET YET ANOTHER KILLER VIDEO AND HOPEFULLY A FEW GOOD HIGH-PROFILE PERFORMANCES
THEN I BELIEVE SHE SHOULD DEW A DOUBLE SINGLE. 1 OF THE FOLLOWING: YEAH I KNOW, YOU CAN GET IT, WANTS FOR DINNER, HEAVY ROTATION AND I RUN IT FOR URBAN STATIONS!
TEAMCIARA HAS TEW BE ON IT. REQUESTING, VOTING, PURCHASING, PROMO, THE WHOLE NINE. BUT EITHER WAY WE’LL SEE. HELL…PART OF ME IS HOPING SHE GETS DROPPED SO THE NEXT LABEL WILL REALLY HANDLE HER LIKE THE STAR SHE IS.
s.n-IT TURNS OUT THE REASON FOR THE LOW PROJECTED 1ST WEEK SALES, IS DUE TEW JIVE’S DUMB ASSES FOR UNDERSHIPPING THE ALBUM, NOT KNOWING THE INITIAL PROJECTION FOR IT. SO THAT MEANS HIGHER SECOND WEEK SALES.
AM I PRESSED?? NO. SHE’S GOING UP AGAINST SuBo, TAYLOR (TRUE ALBUM SELLERS) MJ AND R, KELLY (MUSIC LEGENDS) AND DIDDY…WHO BUY’S HIS OWN S*** SO ITS SAFE TEW SAY A #1 ALBUM IS OUTTA THE QUESTION. OH WELL…SHE ALREADY HAS ONE OF THOSE…{giggles}
she killed it hope the promo help her album
Cheap Janet Jackson copycat.
I smell epic and final fail.
I’m not a hater. I’m just a realistic person.
Um can u say LEGEND ICONIC PERFORMANCE she may not have huge record sales but she puts on amazing performances so that goes to show u just cuz u have number one singles and and number 1 albums that doesn’t mean your going to have longevity in the game…
BETTER THAN BEYAAAWNCE…
Ciara really is amazing. Seriously, it’s not even funny that her numbers aren’t matching her talent. She deserves more. I think it’s more to this and when I see other artist pulling ahead of her in sales that didn’t do any promo and that don’t have radio play it’s just leaving no doubt in my mind that someone wanted to make an example out of Ciara. The albums still suffering from low sales(while she’s making more appearances). Still there’s certain artist that I haven’t seen do a thing and it’s no worries. Anyway, enough of that – because these performances are showing me that she’s a worthy artist. I understand that somethimes it’s not about what’s on paper! Go Cici. Awesome performances!
I am not even a fan but she goes in!!
she ate that performance the crowd loved her & her album is good…she black bagged that Basic Instinct in stores go support Ciara!!
Amazing stamina. But I can’t get past the fact that the power of her dancing and strength of her voice don’t match. Amazing dancer though.
COME ON HATERS dont hate i might be a massive fan of rihanna but im sorry ciara kills me she is the best hands dwon not even beyonce can do that dancing damm people pliz go out and buy A COPY SUPPORT HER PLIZ PLIZ SHE desrves it))))))
This girl is the best hands down ppl!!!
Why would ppl not support this girl???
This girl shits on EVERYONE IN THE GAME!!!!
FIRE
AMAAAZING PERSONALITY AS WELL
THANK YOU TGJ FOR SUPPORTING HER
Its crazy how ppl can bash her 2posts ago then turn around and have her back the nxt post SMH
i can’t see the video
YESSSS she is showing why she wants to go on tour..she did incredible and her dancers too,very dope energy and choreography
@Gaslickmouf, I notice that… It’s just no way you can deny the truth, she’s a hell of a performer! I honestly scratch my head when I see people attacking her because there is so much talent! Most of the time people do more than share their opinion on Cici, they go in the way they hate Bush or someone that has violated them.
STILL WON’T MAKE ANYONE BUY BASICALLY EXTINCT.. BASICALLY #28 ON ITUNES…. THE SUCCESSFUL FLOP THAT IS RIHANNA IS STILL IN TOP 10. B**** IS SLAYING AND YOU ALL JUST GOIN HAVE TO STAY MAD. LOUD IS NOW PLATINUM IN 5 COUNTRIES, GOLD IN THE US. WHEN WILL THE TRANNILICIOUS FLOP????
YOU SO CALLED FANS NEED TO STOP LYING. IF YOU ALL WON’T PAY 9.99 ON ITUNES OR 11.99 IN STORES FOR ALL ALBUM YOU ALL WON’T PAY 30 TO SEE THIS B**** IN CONCERT. SHE IS NOT A HEADLINER JUST A BACK UP. SHE CAN BACK UP FIR GAGA, BEYONCE OR BRITNEY IN 2011
Your fave could never!
That was awesome!!! Why is she not number 1………………………..? :-/
Go Ciara goooo I love this girl!!!!
I’m sorry.. but Ciara is a great dancer and performer but NOT a great singer!! Her vocals are wack!! I love Ciara but i’d rather watch her dance performances than to listen to her sing. Her music is cool to listen to on the radio but not IN PERSON!! I wish her da best on her album sales tho.
Why are there so many haters ? Honestly if you didn’t like her then you wouldn’t have came on this post. Ciara dances better than poor Rihanna and Beyonce. Don’t get me wrong, i’m a fan of them too, but they just don’t have the dancing quality like Ciara & honestly we shouldn’t even be comparing the young ladies. They all stand for something different in how they all are from different places, and sing of a different origin. People try their best to bring the ladies down in the industry, but Ciara (the most disrespected one) stills comes back with another album; she’s not givin up on her fans so why give up on her ? Ciara made a song called “Shut Em Up” just for people like you all. Basic Instinct or Fantasy Ride may not be her best work in this time she’s been a star, but they both stand for something. Both of these albums have very soundy & energetic music to keep you up & to get your day started. I can listen to Ciara all day & just smile the whole time. She’s just that good. Beyonce & Rihanna are so much different from her & Ciara is much different from them. Stop hating & just live your own life..these girls will do fine with or without you 🙂 Thanks a lot..
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
WE ALREADY HAVE A JANET JACKSON!
WHETHER JANET IS 44 OR NOT! JANET STILL HAS THE YOUTH THING GOING AND HAS HER OWN LEGENDARY ICONIC SWAG THAT COULD NEVER BE TOUCHED.
JANET CAN GET HOOD IF SHE WANTED! SO WE DONT NEED CIARA. SMH
She killed it!
But I never understood why artists do promo after the album is released and wonder why they only sold 40k opening week ❓
Janet Whoooo?? Its all about Ciara!!
@ Sean , there room for everyone. Janet says that all the time! No ones replacing her.
@ Prince, It’s always all about Janet. Still this performance is all about Ciara & she’s doing her thing!
WOWO WO!!! I strongly suggest you a great s ite

That is all.

DEAD AT THESE COMMENTS LOL!
CIARA NEEDS BETTER MATERIAL AND A NEW LOOK.
I think if Ciara and Chris Brown toured together in 2011, that would be the tour of the decade. Usher kicked Chris off his tour, which I am still pissed off about. Ciara and Chris Brown are both on Jive Records and that label needs to step up their promotion for both of them. I feel like CiCi and Breezy gave Trey and Keri their big breaks in 2009. If FR would have performed much better, then Keri would be a nobody and if Chris wouldn’t have loss his temper, Trey would still be a backup singer. Basic Instinct in stores now and F.A.M.E coming Spring 2011. I think all Ciara and Chris Brown fans/stans/groupies should start a petition to get a Ciara and Chris tour in 2011. Patiently waiting on Hate It or Love It World Tour featuring Ciara and Chris Brown.
@THEREALNICKY Ciara did get a new look/sound with Fantasy Ride in 2009, but ppl said she lost her urban/R&B roots so she went back to them on Basic Instinct and now ppl are saying she needs a Pop hit to be huge. Strange right.
This woman is basically saying “Don’t bother buying the album , most of that mula goes to the writers and record comapany not to me but this is what you’ll get is you pay twice the amount for a tour ticket….thatisall”
If you aint Kanye, Em, Rihanna, Taylor, Susan or Britney you can forget about selling records. Get it girl I just became interested.
“While ‘the album’s projected numbers show that it’ll be hitting a bargain-bin near you soon…”
#DEATH
@bey_bishes..not cuz an artist only sells 40k in one week that mean the album is a disaster..u ever heard of the album sales picking up after u promo the project..it’s just like a song when u goin out and perform it will more than likely rises on the charts..for exmaple pretty girl rock wasn’t on bb100 until she start goin out performing the song..besides sum artist starts off with strong #’s then their shyt stop selling
damn i must say ciara is the best performer of this new generation ..well next to GAGa cux she’s very creative on stage..damn i wish kelly rowland comes back out dancing like this
THIS WAS HOTTTTTT GET IT CIARA !!!!!!! YESSSSSS….
That was AMAZING!!!! and I’m not the Biggest CiCi fan…
Yess @LOSTONEZ, speaking of Gaga her “The Fame” 1st week sales were 24k, is that a flop? Yes, but look @ her now. If Ciara promotes till her damn lace wigs fall off she’ll be good. Because as far as any other aspects she’s bringing it, she just needs a good team & promotion.
She’s in HEAVY ROTATION ! Nice !
@Tones, I’d definitely pay to see that show! That one would be up there for me!
She’s a dancer not a singer. And ICONIC??? B**** please. What fashion statement has Ciara started? What ideas have age brought to a visual besides dancing? She belongs in Step Up 4, maybe Stomp the Yard 3, but hell she’s far from Iconic. Kelis is an icon, she starts movements. (Get Along With You & Young Fresh N New)
Keri already did all this same s*** before.
She truly gives me a Jackson feel. I’d rather go see her in concert than Beyoncé.
TOO RIGHT! And it looks like baby girls has put on little weight in all the right places. Can anyone say BOOTAY!!! HAAAAAAAAAAAAY!
YAY the godess slayed that stage….i love that energy…she really improved on evrything….some people can say whatever they want, cici i luv u…next time u better come in paris..i know u gonna rock the stage….she was flawless point blank….i luv her vocals…i like to se artists GROW. n she grew so much from last year..people wanna shade but they just sound ridiculous n stupid..keep goin harder..if her management were wise, they would let her perform in nrj music awards..again, ciara we want u in paris lol….keep it positive, they can hate, they can bash, lets keep goin harder, no time to pay attention to retards
LetsGo TeamCiara
saving up my money to get a front row seat when Ciara comes to my town
@ Haters, if she sucks, why r u here???lol it seems like haters r mad that cici aint sellin records, why r u mad?? uh, WHY DO U CARE??? some cici fans can care cuz she’s their fave, but why U?????
u really should think abt it !!!! payin attention to s.o u dont appreciate??? INTERESTING CASE.
seriously what is up with her management? cos she seems to have loads of ppl backing her…
but the promo/organisation of this project has been shocking
YESSSSS CiCi
Bang out that!!!!!!
She killed.
MORE OF THIS CIARA please!!!!!!
Displaying your talent like this on a regular basis it what would’ve helped your album in the 1st place.
Keep going and keep pushing
Lmao its funny that sum ppl r mad bcuz Ciara brought dat fire to the stage!!!!!!!!
All the ones that was talking s*** is now eating there words and I love it!!!!
I agree that she performs but lets be honest Ciara needs to work on her voice. Imagine with that performance if she had strong vocals. She would kill them. But her voice is just so bad, like anyone who is a singer knows what she is doing. She is singing with a fake falsetto voice which is the easiest to maintain. Janet Jackson’s falsetto has tone. Ciara has no tone, its all breathy nonsense.
As a black woman I wish other black women success but common ciara should have grown by now. That voice is just inexcusable after all this while.
CIARA IS THE BEST DANCER EVER, PLEASE BELIEVE IT!
Anyway, still gonna FLOP !!
ciara is working her b*** off for this if only she could really really saaaanng she would be up there with alica and beyonce.
SORRY BUT HER PERFORMANCES AREN’T GONNA SELL RECORDS. IF THE MUSIC AINT GOOD, THE PUBLIC AINT BUYING!!!
the more you hear of the song the crappier it gets. it doesnt matter if youre a good performer if the songs hurt your ears.
ok so maybe shes not a “Beyonce” when it comes to singing but i can tell that her voice has improved over the years. Ciara is the definition of a true performer. not someone who has to strip down to sell records and sing about how they “p**** is the s***”, Thats why she doesnet sell as well in this corrupt crooked world. But Basic instinct is a nice album.. for me its more in the “Club Banger” type album. CIci just needs to fire that lame ass promotion team and start fresh. And people please stop trying to compare her to Beyonce & Janet… Those are her INSPIRATION if u dont know what that means look it up in the dictionary damn… and btw Keri Stillson dosent deliver this much energy to the stage.. matta fact she never has any energy..
KERI= YAWN/BORING
CIARA= EXCITEMENT/ KILLER TO THE STAGE!!
AMAZING!!!!
BLAH BLAH BLAH !! FLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOP !! “BASICALLY IT STINKS” FLOPPIN EVERYWHERE NEAR YOU !!
AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@Teflon Don …. Basically Extinct lmfaooooooooooooooo!!!! that was funny!! but hun lets be realistic!! CICI is f***** damn blood clart gooooooooooooooooooooooood!!! u can hate all u want u never be liker her!!! stay there maybe in ur ghetto house counting money to buy some food and let Ciara bring more milions to her account 😀
She killed that performance! It NEARLY made me buy the album!
I feel bad because her team are not handling her projects well, but at least she always has true talent to fall back on!
SHE KILLED THAT!!!
This girl can put on a show!!
Ugh! You see this is what pisses me off! I can’t deny that was an amazing performance! She absolutely killed that performance! Better than when she was on Ellen! But this is what she should have been doing WEEKS ago!! WTF was her team thinking?? They couldn’t manage to get her on the VMA’s (I know she performed with Pharrel but that is was wack) AMA’s? BET awards?? Nothing?? WTF!!!
I really do think she just waited to late to do all of this. Her people totally screwed her! Even though the audience went wild for her I seriously wonder how many of them are actually going to buy her album. SMH.
I am rooting for Ciara, even though I am not a fan, but I swear it doesn’t look good for at all! SMH.

Like I said in a few post when she performed on ellen that Im a buy her cd. Cause she is amazing performer and I feel like their is alot of messy thing going behind the scenes stuff that we dont know. To me Im not a hater. I think ciara is great entertainer but I was mad that she was not entertaining cause that’s what she is good at. I think she need to go on every award show and guest apperance show she can’t rely on her name alone. She showing people that her sales are not matching with her talent. But I do need some of ciara stans aka queen cici to stay out of chris brown post and stop throwing shade. #Teambreezy always support ciara and wish her the best but if you want throw shade at chris when name is all over billboards through all that he is been through I will definitely snatch a wig. Cause he is getting back to the public grace. I dont know why ciara is having all these promblems. Yall need to be voting and requesting for your girl all over the radio. Cause I barely hear her. She is really depending her fans, so dont disappoint her. Leave all this petty stan war stuff alone and support your artist if you still want them to be here. #Teambreezy knows this already we are survivors…. deuces
————————————————————————————–
Co-sign!
WTF!!
Ciara should be more popular in her career. She has lackluster management. Her entire management team should be revamped
This talent should not go un noticed
AMAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINNNNNNNNNNNNNG THIS IS A FREAKIN PERFORMANCE BETWEEN KERI AND CIARA MY CHOICE IS DONE !!!!
Great performance. I hope Turn It Up and Heavy Rotation get to be singles.
ciara killed it…
people don’t give performances on this level any more…
this took me back to the days of Britney and Nsync…
I really hope cici doesn’t get discouraged with her album performing poorly…
clearly its not her fault…
This is a really good performance…even though her Recorded vocals still sounded thin.
