Hot Shot: Ciara Unwraps New ‘Sorry’ Promo

Published: Monday 17th Sep 2012 by Sam

Having notched up over a million views in a matter of days, it’s fair to say Ciara is onto a winner with comeback single ‘Sorry‘. 

Hence, so as to keep her buzz a’buzzin, the 26 year old has shared a new promotional shot with her ever-adoring “C-Squad”.

Needless to say, stunning stuff.

We literally can’t wait to see the promotional push for the singer’s fifth studio album ‘One Woman Army’ – which is presently slated for a Fall release. Bring on the performances, pictures, and the whole shabang. We’re amped!

    She looks the same. I do not really see any fashion or a dramatic new look.

    Cher lloyd on twitter: ”Just heard my new song Oath on the Radio in LA”

    ” Had an amazing meeting with LA Reid and Epic EVP and A&R Mike Flynn ”

    Ciara twitter: blowing kisses at stans. So, Cher Lloyd has already got her third American single ( with ur love was on itunes ) Oath is on radio. She is having tactical meetings with LA Reid and Mike flynn up at Epic. She made a PA at the LA county fair, and last week she performed her new tracks at new your fashion week.

    She is only 19, and she is more business savvy than 26 yr old ciara who has been in the game for 8 years. Ciara is not doing ANYTHING FOR HER career compared to cher. The t*** white girl is working harder than old black woman, who has one last chance. When she gets dropped and Cher become a star, I do not want to hear the race card.

    • Dave September 17, 2012

      Cher Lloyd is a NEW artist. There’s a big difference. This is why she needs more attention. Ciara is the #1 priority at Epic Records, so they had to do her stuff just right. You think they were gonna throw out any single when her last 2 albums already didn’t do well? Of course not, they were thinking of the best strategic plan, & now they’re starting her promo. It’s not how you start, it’s how you finish. This would’ve made more since like a month ago, but now Ciara is promoting like crazy. I swear people don’t think straight at all. You do not know Ciara or what she goes through. 2, Ciara was still part recording her album around the time of what you’re saying now would’ve been relevant (like a month ago). You forget Ciara is also writing on the album, she’s in the studio while they are recording her album, she had to rehearse for videos (she’s a dancer, unlike Cher), & she’s helping produce the album. That takes time, “Behind the Scenes.”

      You must really be bothered.

      • kelly September 17, 2012

        Ciara is not the number 1 focus at Epic, as she is not the biggest seller, and she came to the label, as a someone who was dropped! I would consider Adele to be the biggest number 1 priority at her label. Get it now? Her last 2 albums flopped, because they / video were wack. This project is wack too! All that blah blah will mean nothing when numbers come it and I know, Cher will pull good numbers and Ciara will not, hence her being dropped to make more budget to take Cher to the next level. End of story. it is what it is. It is not personal, it is just business.

        You can stay angry, raise your blood pressure and act like hoodrat and being rageful.

        Will never change how business works.

    • CSquad!! September 17, 2012

      Post your @ name so when her numbers drop we can all mention you on twitter and laugh at you. So damn stupid. Cher lloyd is a new artist she needs a image. Why would ciara be all over the place when she already has a image and is working on her album hands on. Cher is doing nothing on her album nothing, not dancing, no performances, nothing! Stfu. Ciara is dropping two videos, promo, interviews, on top of working on her video and gearing up for her performance overseas in 3 weeks. Know the facts. and she is top priority at her label.

      • kelly September 17, 2012

        WE will be laughing at you…and ciara, What is Ciara image? Ghetto and hood, making high end pieces look hood, that non hood people do not want to be seen in them anymore? YOU STFU. Cher is selling, 1.2 bought her single and no one gives and f*** is does any man looking ghetto crunk dancing, she is SELLING and that is all LA REID / EPCI CARE ABOUT.

        Overseas? I am half swedish and have lived in the UK. NO ONE GIVES A F*** ABOUT CIARA IN THE UK / SWEDEN. SHE IS NOT BOOKED FOR Xfactor and that is the biggest show. She will not be on Jonathan Ross cos she is a non mother f****** factor in the UK.. F*** on that b****.
        Her vide is wack, none of the blogs covered it. Promo where? What TV shows will she be on? She will not be on the front cover of any fashhion magazine, they shoot three months ahead and I know who will be on teh cover of Vogue, Elle, Marie claire, Cosmo, GQ, Esqure etc and will not be Ciara.

        She is not top priority at her label, hence why LA REid and Mike Flynn are having meetings with Cher L. La reid seems to big up Karmin and cher on twitter more than Ciara. No label wanted Ciara after she got booted, LA only signed be because LA knew her from 2003 when he signed her to Laface. He brought her to Epic, because no other label were wanted her, and he felt sorry for an old friend. As LA has being fired before, he is not gonna take his chance again. If she cannot sell cannot open with 200 or more and sell 2 million plus worlwide and get a global number 1 – she will be dropped and you can eat s*** over it. Cos Cher is not getting dropped.

      • kelly September 17, 2012

        1.2 million people and COUNTING ARE BUYING CHER MUSIC IN ONLY THREE MONTHS. She does not need to dance like thug man to sell.

      • kelly September 17, 2012

        none of the mainstream blogs have covered her new video. None of the mainstream blogs have shown pictures of her at Mr chow and partying the clubs. Pictures of her do not make the mainstream. She is known as The black girl who carries Kim Kardashian bag.

  5. kelly September 17, 2012

    And Cher can Have a number 1 album in the USA on October 2nd. She has already sold 1.2 million singles.; the kids love her style and fashion.,,she has a hot new song called Oath, featuring a new t*** latina rapper that the kids love; she works hard and LA reid are doing good promo, not that OTT roc nation promo. Cher’s LP in the UK went in at number 5 with 55k; Rita Ora’s LP went in at number 1 with 40k sold – who is the winnner? Cher or Rita? for those that go on about the number 1 album rule.

    Cher LP in the UK has sold 1/4 of a million copies and is certified gold. This was a girl that was on xfactor in 2010

    • KING-BREEZYONCÉ September 17, 2012

      • CSquad!! September 17, 2012

  6. kelly September 17, 2012

    Why was Ciara not Blizting New York Fashion week? Why did she not perform Sorry at all the new york fashion week after parties? The video is out, yet she has not a single interview in any major magazine….I do not hear Sorry on the radio in la -shoot! they still play Rih out here.

    • MCJ September 17, 2012

      If u’ve listened her interview on 106 and park u wold know that she was REHEARSING FOR HER POP SINGLE. THATS WHY SHE WAS NOT ON FASHION WEEK.

      • kelly September 17, 2012

        I have heard her take on Pop. It is not a pop song or a good song at that, nor will be able to challenge any genuine pop artist like Karmin, Cher, etc.

  7. Queen ciara best performer ever is back September 17, 2012

    nice picture!!!!♥

  8. Truth September 17, 2012

    • kelly September 17, 2012

      You lying damm b****. I check French itunes, there is not a single urban song on the chart, Ciara is not famous in France like Rih or beyonce, so why would they be talking about her song ? Which is not even smash!

      • Love on top September 17, 2012

        Hey rita ora freak!!!!!! You a damn ass dumb c*** checked Itunes? Like b**** seat please It aint anywhere on itunes it gets released the 25th!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

      • kelly September 17, 2012

        It will not go to number 1 france in the way Rih does. End of story ugly ass b****.

      • tanya la belle September 17, 2012

        hey kelly girl listen, i aint got your time ok? i dont care wether u spend ur desperate life checkin the french charts or bein a fly in epic records’ toilets… mind ur own business, i noticed u were seekin attention n i didnt give u one. tell me where u live in paris, i’ll deal with u right away. … VA NIKER TA RACE VIELLE PUTE

  10. oneroyalerey September 17, 2012

    chile please ain’t nobody checking for no Cher what’s her name.This is about ciara.I like the mix of hood meets glam.Ciara may not ever be as big as she was on 2004 but she has audience that loves her.good luck CiCi

    • kelly September 17, 2012

      Cher is being checked. Do you know what 1.2 million in three months means? Or are you to ghetto?

      Anyway, Ciara should watch Cher. You know why? If Cer blows up, they will pull a Christina Millian. That means, when LA reid and Def jam dropped Christina Millian to use her budget to fund Rihanna, who was blowing up.

      Even though LA reid promised Millian that he would not do that – he did! I can see LA reid dropping Ciara and using her budget to pump in the ever growing Cher Lloyd camp. Whoever sells the most, gets the most attention ( well, not Roc nation ) But, u get it.?

  11. Sleazy September 17, 2012

    Kelly is Rita ora obsess she talking bout Rita on a Ciara post she is crazy

    • kelly September 17, 2012

      I brought in Cher L to make the point that Epic will drop Ciara to give more money for Cher L, who is young, white, hot and SELLS. Young white t*** who sells over old black woman who does NOT SELL. YEAH, we all know who epic will chose.

      • kelly September 17, 2012

        LA reid has done that before. He dropped Christina Millian to give the budget to Rihanna. LA knew Rih was gonnna slay, even if others did not. He knew.

    • kelly September 17, 2012

      You’re just mad that I have the UK album charts and Rita Ora sold 17, 460 to be at number 3, but now she is at 11 and TTT is at 21. Today, on Itunes, Rita is at 52 an jayz / kanye are at 49. LOL LOL at Rita Ora’s LP being outsold by Jay / kanye. what a joke and flop. The way they hyped that girl

  17. kelly September 17, 2012

    The picture is not stylish or artistic. WHo the hell styled this? Where is the art direction? Why she not making eye contact with the camera? Why did they not airbrush the muscles from her arms? Her arms look manly. Who made these clothes>? This not prada, chanel, bottega venneta, Stella Mccrtney, Tom Ford, Nina Ricci. Why is she not wearing something fresh of the runway? This picture is so ghetto.

    She is not serious about her career. She thinks LA reid will have her back, cos he is black…..and she will get dropped.

  18. CSquad!! September 17, 2012

    Ciara! The single and video is perfect. Its her time. She is coming stronger than ever. Love her! This is a ciara post not a whats that trailor park trash girls name… Sher? Shrek? Cher? Who she needs to watch on for is Karlie rae, and Rita Ora.

    • kelly September 17, 2012

      Who needs to watch Rita ORA? Cher debut LP outsold Rita Ora’s on the first week. Rita Ora sold 40k to go number 1. Cher ( she is only 19 and was on xfactor with one direction ) Sold 55k to go in at number 5. Cher LP is gold in the UK and has sold 1/4 million copies. Rita Ora is being outsold by Jayz album. LOL LOL LOL

      Cher and Rita both released singles in America. Two songs in, Rita cannot find a top 40 hit. Cher Lloyd debut American single…….has sold over 1.2 MILLION AND IT IS STILL SELLING. No one knows when Rita Ora’s LP is coming out in America. it was meant to be next week.

      Cher’s LP in America comes out in Oct 2. So who needs to watch who?

    • kelly September 17, 2012

      Ciara, Rita Ora and them other flops need to watch how 19 yr old Cher is doing it.

  19. dstrock September 17, 2012

    It’s cute. I don’t really understand why she has promo pictures for Sorry though. I mean the single cover’s already dropped, as has the video…

  20. BIG DOGG September 17, 2012

    Ciara, stop slaying me left and right.

    What’s that body, I mean, what do you MEAN with that body?

    You wanna KILL ME . . . ? ? ?

  21. Auntie_Jackie September 17, 2012

    Ciara really has it together this time around thanks to Epic & L.A. Reid. @ Kelly, you are a full time hater, aren’t you?

    If it’s not Rihanna you have nothing positive to say. Not everyone dyes their hair, cuts it, puts a weave in, or changes their look up completely for a new album. That’s Rihanna’s gimmick, so stop trying to force it on everyone else.

    Ciara can actually dance–she’s a great entertainer with a decent voice, as opposed to your favorite who banks on the kindness of other–her stylist, hair dresser, set designer, marketing team, army of writers and producers, to have success. Heaven forbid Ciara isn’t a repeat swagger jacker and has her own damn style. Yes, she appeals to an urban crowd. So what! She also has the talent and personality to be a big pop star too, which is why you spend your time hating on her.

    • kelly September 17, 2012

      That is nice that you care about Ciara. But, business is business and I do not think she will pull in numbers. Therefore, she will get dropped. Why are u acting shocked? She has been dropped before.
