So Beyonce stans are gonna honestly tell me, after Ciara's Evolution album came out, Ciara and Beyonce were not the top 2 female R&B/Pop singers in the world? And to the person who said Ciara never had endorsement deals and performed at awards shows, what do call deals with Verizon, Addidas, Wilhelmina Models, performances on BET, MTV, Billboard, Soul Train, Grammys, specific TV speicals like the All Star Tribute to Diana Ross. Ciara did photo shoots in all types of magazines like Beyonce, international editions of Vogue were her biggest shoots, she had cover stories like Beyonce on magazines like Vibe, Billboard, Rap-Up and she articles in Rolling Stones, US Weekly, Entertainment Weelky. Now I will agree, Ciara was not on Beyonce's level but she very very close, and for ya'll to say she was not Beyonce's main competiton before GGGB by Rihanna blew up in 2008, ya'll are just delusional.
