As new single ‘I Bet’ continues its ascend, Ciara hit the studio this weekend to put the finishing touches to its parent album, ‘Jackie’.

Posting on Instagram, the 29-year-old indicated that the snap was taken by longtime collaborator Polow Da Don.

Due later this year, the LP – which serves as the singer’s sixth – also boasts production from Dr Luke, Diane Warren, and Harmony Samuels – the latter of whom we caught up with recently.

See what he had to say about ‘Jackie’ below…

    Can’t wait for the album!

  2. The Great Lacefronce. January 18, 2015

    This album may just do 50k first week, an improvement for Ciara!

    • Cupid January 18, 2015

      The last one did more than 50k…. I feel this one will do a lot more than the last 2. She seems more focused. Ciara has never been this consistent with the album news since evolution. She just need to fix those ITunes release dates lol

    • Tasha January 18, 2015

      An improvement?… Her last LP that you guys say “flopped” did 100k first week… 100k isn’t “flopping” and Ci can and will do way better than “50k” boo. Especially with Dr Luke, Dianne Warren, Drake and Missy on the album…. It’s going to be beast

      • The Great Lacefronce. January 18, 2015

        100k first week….where at? Certainly not in the US! And the last album Ciara hasn’t even been certified copper, a certified flop unfortunately

  3. metzo January 18, 2015

    #Random. New statistics show that Taylor Swift, Katy Perry and Beyonce are the most liked artists in the U.S.

    3. Beyonce (Dominating 5 states)
    2. Katy Perry (Dominating 9 states)
    1. Taylor Swift (Dominating the rest of the U.S O_o)

    • Skyfall January 18, 2015

  4. Terny January 18, 2015

    Another basic album from a basic artist… yawn

    • Cupid January 18, 2015

      Mariah’s albums weren’t the same old love songs? Think about it baby. Your favs aren’t that significant.

      • Denis Roy January 18, 2015

        I´m from mexico , i love Mariah and Ciara , I like that both remain true to your style , They are among the few artists who are faithful to r & b .
        in my country Mariah and Ciara are not popular , but that does not make their music is bad, for me they always make quality music
        Mariah Ciara and janet jackson are my favorite artists !

      • Terny January 18, 2015

        “Your favs aren’t that significant.”… *Sydeye* Sit!_/

  5. Beysus January 18, 2015

    Partition has been certified Platinum (2nd platinum single of the era) and 7/11 has been certified Gold in the US

    • Beysus January 18, 2015

      Red arrow me all you want… It’s true… *sips tea*

    • rihanna is groupie January 18, 2015

      WOW! and they said she was over. I can see why the pressure is on rihanna to deliver…..

      I want beyonce to do RNB pop and Disco dance for the next album, I want a FULL GLOBAL PROMO TOUR; know laying back; I know she is the QUEEN but it would be great to see her on TV bodying these other h***.

      I want her to do Graham norton UK

      Wetten das – germany

      NRJ france

      Sklavan – norway

      ASIA ASIA ASIA

      Letterman USA; ELLEN AND GMA

      Just for the fun of it.

      • Beysus January 18, 2015

        I know. I want her to go on Graham Norton again!!!

      • Skyfall January 18, 2015

        Please stfu, she’s BEYONCE but can only get two platinum singles in an era where singles slay. Where are the receipts of her album selling 5m ww? Why did she get scalped by Frozen and Taylor swift. And as for RIHta Whora why hasn’t she been able to release HER 2nd album. Why are her delusional Stan’s acting like that oscar nom is hers when the award would go to Dianne? Why you acting like RIHta is some A lister when she barely known in the US or outside of the UK for that part her minimal roles want make her surprise Rihanna.. Not today, not tomorrow, not ever ever bittttcch!!! When Home slays Fifty shits of grey at the box office don’t come in her deflating. When RIHta can sell 1m albums in her own country or be known as a singer rather than as industry ho who fux for tracks. Why did RIHta lie about being worth 120m? Also those movie roles you were preaching about earlier aren’t even confirmed so keep dreaming b****. Now go suck the cranberry sauce out ya daddy’s ass.

      • rihanna is groupie January 18, 2015

        For the next album. I want soul POP and deep ballads.

        I want IAMSF type global promo. WE know she does not need it like rihanna, I just wanna see her beauty, moves and voice body flop h***.

        It times for Beyonce to SIT AND have talks with letterman, Norton and Ellen and em. We all want hear her lovely voice

      • rihanna is groupie January 18, 2015

        Beyonce alnbum has sold over 5 mill, this was form the official charts website. Who cares if she does not have mega sellers; HER ABLUM OUTSOLD RIHANAN LAST album that is all that mattes. What the point in having 10 million with streaming but an underpforming album. U don’t make money on singles. Singles are used to sell albums and tours, which is what beyocne has done,w which is why she kill rihanan in forbes list.

        Rita is A list in the UK and B list in USA and bigger than Ciara right now. You only need to sell 300k in the uk to be certified platinum She done that./ Rita never said that; some site said that. Best believe she is rich. Those movies are confirmed, that she she cannot mention cos she signed a contract.

      • #JACKIE January 18, 2015

        Honestly… what’s a Rita Ora to a Rihanna & Ciara? Like… stop. You are fighting a battle you will NEVER win. As Azealia Banks stated a couple years back, ” RITA ORA IS RIHANNA’S UNDERSTUDY” The same can be applied to Tinashe, Teyana Taylor, & Mila J for Ciara.

        Say what u want about Ciara, BUT one thing is she can CHART. #Jackie will be a new beginning for her. Tbh, can we just send Rita back to Albania? She’s useless, besides some bomb ORAL & a quick FXCK! BLAAAAH!

  6. KatyCat January 18, 2015

    Flop number four

  7. DanYiel Teflon January 18, 2015

    I’ll check out a few singles from Ciara Im not mad I bought a few from her last album!!

  8. rihanna is groupie January 18, 2015

    She is not gonna make it. I am sorry. She has no fans; there is no mainstream appeal, even Kim K could not help her. The music is back, the image is back, their is no statecgic game plan. she should just join love and hip hop

    • Skyfall January 18, 2015

      The same way RIHta won’t make it?

      • rihanna is groupie January 18, 2015

        RITA is making it though. She is big in the UK. Ciara is nobody in the USA.

      • rihanna is groupie January 18, 2015

        Ciara has oNE LAST Chance and she will join Tierra marie. She is not making anyone any money. Rita is making money She books show in the USA that sell out.

        She sells magaziness covers; she sells sportstwear and fashion. She sang on black widow; that counts as sale for her too. Just like rihanna and emimem. She gets six figure offers fro vegas gigs
        TABLOID pictures of RITA ORA make money; that why she gets papped. I am schooling ur black ass on how money is made. if Rita has $ 3 mill; think how much Turn 1st and ROC have made?

        Ciara is not making any money for her team AND AT 29 AND 11 YEARS……..THIS IS HER LAST CHANCE. IF SHE DONT GO PLATINUM – SHE IS DONE!

    • LB January 18, 2015

      She’s most definitely going to sell more albums in the US that Rita Ora.

      If Jessie J can sell 20K in the US, there’s no way Rita Ora is selling more than that.

      • rihanna is groupie January 18, 2015

        Jessie J tried to hard and cane across wrong after the success of her debut album. That is why they tuned on her, plus her. As for the USA…..she does not have a good team out here. Rita will sell more than jessie cos she already has fan base out here. WHO do u think are SEEING EHR SOLD OUT SHOWS IN NYC AND HOSUE OF BLUES?

      • LB January 18, 2015

        Rita Ora also doesn’t have a good team, how many singles has she released in the US that have all flopped.

        She was d*** riding every producer and song writer for a hit but they hit it and gave her left-overs.

        She tried to mooch off of Iggy and Charlie XCX and still no hit LMAO. I cannot wait for the floppage, where is this next single, I can’t wait for the comedy

      • rihanna is groupie January 18, 2015

        She only released 2 singles and they both charted on the hot 100.

      • LB January 18, 2015

        But they weren’t in the TOP 10. Weren’t you going on and on last time about how Rita Ora released HWD in the states only to flop? Weren’t you going on about how she released RIP in the states only to FLOP.

        And don’t get me started about how you talked about ORA coming out at Bestbuy only to FLOP. Girl, get your medication

  9. TheElusiveLamb January 18, 2015

    ^^ Wow I didn’t know we had so many fortune tellers on this blog. Ciara will do her thing regardless of what it sells. I’m here for it; still hate her fans on here.

  10. LB January 18, 2015

    Let’s be honest, Ciara makes good music. THE Evolution, Ciara….I mean yes she puts together good pop albums.

    Ciara has to have the worst team in music history, it has been what, a week and where is the promo campaign for I bet? It’s not even on iTunes.

    Cici girl, fire your team. Michael Jackson is keeping Epic afloat, someone get rid of LA Reid, his business model is old fashioned.

    • TheElusiveLamb January 18, 2015

      I literally hate LA! He messed up the Just Whitney era, Toni’s entire career, Janet’s Discipline era, and please don’t even get me started on all of the amazing songs he scraped on the Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel album for some filler that I can’t even remember. 🙁

  11. rihanna is groupie January 18, 2015

    When she was Kim Kardashian bag carrier, dis she not pick uo anything from mama jenner about strategic branding, marketing or product placement; as well as location location location?

    She is worse now, that she was in 2004.

    • Skyfall January 18, 2015

      The irony is Kim K hell all the Kardashian/Jenners are more known than RIHta worldwide.

      • LB January 18, 2015

        The real tea here is because of Rob Kardashian, Rita Ora will forever be known as the w**** of Hollywood who f**** for tracks.

        And thanks to Calvin Harris, that tea is never going away. Do you need another cup? This tea is good as s***

    • LB January 18, 2015

      Where is the new Rita Ora single? Did Calvin block that one too? It has been what, months since IWNLYD FLOPPED hard on the Billboard Hot 100, where is the next FLOP?

    • rihanna is groupie January 18, 2015

      Still does not change the fact that CIARA has 1 last chance and it is over.

      • LB January 18, 2015

        And it doesn’t change the fact that Rita Ora will never happen music wise.

        At least Ciara has got 2 platinum albums and iron clad hits that charted in the top ten of The hot 100, Rita Ora has got FLOPS and STDs.

  12. I STAN(D) FOR TALENT January 18, 2015

    The studio looks cheap af, but I want to hear the album. Hopefully we don’t get a horrible album and sound like “4.”

    • Skyfall January 18, 2015

      4 is beyonce best album

      • LB January 18, 2015

        Beyonce is, not 4

      • I STAN(D) FOR TALENT January 18, 2015

        I disagree. I think it’s her worst album. It’s not even about its sales, it was just bland and boring and lacked personality.

      • Skyfall January 18, 2015

        Beyoncé has good songs, I prefer 4. I get tired of her singing about her tired box.

      • LB January 18, 2015

        Beyonce’s worst album is B’Day

        The order of her best work goes like this,

        Beyonce > 4 > Dangerously in love > IA…SF

        I cannot stand listening to B’Day, it is trash IMO.

      • TheElusiveLamb January 18, 2015

        I agree Skyfall. 4 is Beyoncé’s best work… vocally and artistically.

  13. Skyfall January 18, 2015

    RIHta wants to be Rihanna so bad.. Shall I post receipts?

    • rihanna is groupie January 18, 2015

      i CAN POST RECEIPTS OF rihanan spying on Rita’s every move.

  14. LB January 18, 2015

    Rita Ora wants to be a celebrity so bad, her clock is ticking. It has been what, months since Calvin Harris gagged his music and still no Will.I.S*** produced next FLOP single from Rita Ora.

    Be rest assured, if Jessie J is doing 20K in the US with a top 10 hit, there’s no way Rita Ora is doing big numbers, especially with the flops she is releasing.

    • rihanna is groupie January 18, 2015

      Jessie J and rita ora have nothing common. Rita already has US game plan in place for execution. There is more money to spend or promo thanks to all the deals and shows she has booked all over the world.

      She is BFF with senior VP of MTV; he is bring back TRL and sponsored Rita and Iggy USA tour in 2012, which was hit.

      She came off a USA Clear clear channel radio tour with Iggy, sam smith and others – This will ensure NON stop POP airplay.

      They have positioned her in movies, so she can reach wider range of people and separate her career from rihanan.

      She is lucky she can sing. She is signed by CAA and they book shows and venues for her all over the world and USA – SHE got paid over 100k to headline a concert in Russia of Hewleet packard. She performs at all the top clubs in las vegas like Tao; she gets paid a lot of money for that. I hear like 80k a show.

      It helps Rita, that she sells tables, so magazines like Us weekly put her in them which give her more reach than Jessie j

      She more beautiful and sexier than Jessie. That will help with males.

      She is hottest girl in fashion – that will help with t*** girls, who already love her style.

      Jessie did not have all that, I’m affraid.

      • LB January 18, 2015

        Girl, ain’t nobody got time for that thesis; just remember that nobody is here for no damn Rita Ora, they don’t even know what that is.

        And if Jessie J, who is well known in the US is doing 20K, Rita Oral is doing far less.

    • rihanna is groupie January 18, 2015

      Sarah Tennant is Rita’s manager. She is created as one of the most savviest managers in the game, she was given an award by billboard. Rita has her; Jessie J does not. Having a good manager is key; ask JLO and benny medina; justin timberlake and Johnny wright and Beyonce and her daddy.

      • LB January 18, 2015

        The same J.Lo who’s AKA album flopped harder than The New Classic? The same J.Lo who has been relegated to a has been washed up vegas act? Girl bye.

        Tell Rita Oral to put her money where her d*** sucking lips are and release that new single so it can FLOP.

    • rihanna is groupie January 18, 2015

      Rita’s clock is not ticking she came out in 2012. She just turned 24. She has achieved more than enough in less than 2 years. Her than said there is more coming but they cannot mention due to legal contracts.

      The whole calvin thing means nothing cos that song sold 400 copies in the UK, and went number 1 so it was hit.

      • LB January 18, 2015

        What did she do since 2012? Released FLOP single after FLOP single, f*** for tracks and d*** ride every celeb in Hollywood for a feature.

        But that is beside the point, where is this new flop single?

  15. Lam Merci January 18, 2015

    Flop #4 is brewing. Slay CiCi!

  16. Lake Erie January 18, 2015

    I Wish her the best but with her not evening mentioning iTunes, it makes me wonder if it’s an official single. I mean I love the single but idk, I just thing that’s weird. But I actually hope and pray she sells double her last album. She really deserves it. But It’s going to be work because it’s a lot of girl out her now with a style very similar to hers so it won’t be easy. But either way, I’m Csquad all day! #FuckWitUs 😉

  17. I STAN(D) FOR TALENT January 18, 2015

    Death @ Rita Ora being nominated for an Oscar even though she can’t win one. She’s not even eligible to win the Oscar. Her pusssy tho…. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

  18. LB January 18, 2015

    @Skyfall

    Remember when Rita Ora tried to give Zac Efron s******* on stage for a cameo in a movie but Zac wasn’t having any of it LMAO.

    Her hollywood doctor must be paid.

  19. blue January 18, 2015

    until rita starts working on her art and gets off her knees, then that rita fan has no right to talk about another artist actually working on their craft

      • blue January 18, 2015

        did you just post a link to an article that clearly states over and over how rita copies rihanna??? like which team are you on?

      • Skyfall January 18, 2015

        The self shade, you see it’s one thing when Metallic was currently in style during that time. Also Rihanna wearing Metallic clothing during Rated R era but to blatantly copy like RIHta does is disgusting

  20. LB January 18, 2015

    I cannot at this Rita Oral stan talking all this mess when not too long ago, it was bragging about 2K venues, girl sit.

    • rihanna is groupie January 18, 2015

      Ciara cannot even sell out a restroom

      • LB January 18, 2015

        And Rita Oral is supposed to be this big star and yet she is doing 2K venues LMAO, even Jason Derulo can fill a 7K venue

    • rihanna is groupie January 18, 2015

      and playing higgling ball room and house of blues and the box are very respected. Sam smith played the box before his debut………..

      • LB January 18, 2015

        It’s still a 2K venue babe, only 2K people are interested in your fav, and this is after how much promo?

        Weren’t bragging about this magazine cover, that movie, this soundtrack….blah blah blah. All that promo and you can only fill a 2K venue? = FLOP!

      • rihanna is groupie January 18, 2015

        She is new act. How many new acts sell out stadiums in the USA? How long did it take for rihanan to sell out shows? Stop acting like dumb m*****. The bottom line is, she sold out those venues, on her own name, without a single hit or album outing the USA.

        Right now…..BLACK WOMEN are not even booking THOSE stages. Brandy? Ciara? Keyshia Cole? AND they are making money of 2k venues. She does not perform for free. You are so dumb; you know nothing about business and u wonder why u people are at the bottom in society?

      • rihanna is groupie January 18, 2015

        AND the reason why they had her play at these venues, which you diss was to introduce her to programme directors and magazine publishers. They wanted people to see and hear perform. Ciara does not have access to radio programmers or magzine publisher, so she does not have vehicle to drive her music, which is why she will flop.

        RITA has more of chance going top 10. Destiny child uses to perfom at places that had 2k or less, but that was part of larger strategic much to get them and BEYONCE TO where they are now.

        As a black person, u don’t understand strategy.

      • LB January 18, 2015

        SCREAMING at that excuse, isn’t Iggy doing Arenas and she’s a new act?

        And don’t lie, this isn’t Rita Ora’s first crack at the US.

        From her debut album, she released HWD, RIP and Shine ya light in the US, they all FLOPPED.

        On the other hand, Rihanna’s first single was a global smash hit, which peaked at #2 on the Hot 100. Her next hit, SOS also a global smash which hit #1 on the Hot 100 and was #1 for 6 weeks in Australia. Still mad?

      • rihanna is groupie January 18, 2015

        Iggy has done well cos she blew up in the USA; once Rita does that she will play arena’s. They only dropped HWD and RIP; partially. They flopped, but….RITA did not sit down created other money making business ventures cos she is white and businesswoman. It is better to have that mentality; that is how u stayed paid.

        Rihanna never capitalized of her 1st and second albums, she was not even making money. IN 2009, her accountant said she only had 9 million . Rita has 3 million.

        DO the math n****, who is richer? 9 million in 2009 VS 3 million from 2013.

  21. blue January 18, 2015

    boo yeah!!!

  22. Rihboy January 18, 2015

    Honestly Ciara brings balance to the music scene. Few, and a very few, of her singles are decent r&b bops. Timeless bops like promise, o, never ever, ride it. However at the same time she just lacks personality. She lacks a good team! Lastly she lacks a backbone. Doesn’t seem like she is at all included in the creative process of anything she does. With all of these new comers with more vocal capabilities popping on the scene, it will become very difficult for her to stand out amongst the rest. I don’t hate her, I’m just not a fan. Nor do I tolerate when her delusional fans carry Rihanna on her accord. She has been out before rih and haven’t even accomplished a tenth. Wish her luck tho. This may be the album to make or break her.

  23. #TeamTinashe Stan (In Loving Memory Of Aaliyah Haughton) January 18, 2015

    If only Ciara actually took advantage more of that sound that she was doing with that “Work” road construction song she would be more interesting and less predictable.
    The thotty pleading of “Sorry” and that you “Promise” to the man that you’ll do more kegel exercises on them “Goodies” for a man to take you back is tiring. Fact of the matter I hope she wins because seven years of no big performances, albums, somewhat of some consistent hit singles, strategic marketing plan, a big tour is tough for her fans to support. Perhaps ditching Jazze Pha wasn’t a good idea. That’s just my observation.

    Now Playing: Tinashe – Bet
    Love the dark vibes on this song 😀

      I posted it to several times, but you are mad as hell and refuse to believe it. There not much i can do. 6 million WW. albums and singles.

      • LB January 18, 2015

        6 million records and she can only sell 400,000 albums, what sort of FLOP is this?

      • I STAN(D) FOR TALENT January 18, 2015

        6M???? Such a legend. Rihanna is sooooooo jealous with her disappointing 170+ Million records sold WW and over 201 awards won. She’s seething. Rita Ora has her bothered and restless. 😀 😀 😀 😀 😀

      • rihanna is groupie January 18, 2015

        Rihanna sold all those record and yet she constantly has money problems. While Rita has empire.

        LOL LOL BLOOP!

      • LB January 18, 2015

        Yes, I too would love to have money problems, especially if I’m considering a $10 million dollar penthouse in NY. Rihanna’s money problems are real eh.

        In the meantime, the Monster tour grossed $6 million per show

With the debut, it became Rihanna’s fourth album to reach the top spot in the UK and also her third consecutive chart topper, tying Madonna, Eva Cassidy and Norah Jones for the female artists with most consecutive UK number one albums. By May 2013, the album had sold 635,000 copies in the UK.

      You are comparing a brand new singer, to a SINGER who has a proven track record and HUGE 777 million dollar promo tour? HUH? YOU do know rita is new act, right? Still, her album went number and was platinum.

      • Skyfall January 18, 2015

        Your point Rihanna album was #1 and sold 2wice as much.

      • rihanna is groupie January 18, 2015

        That was 2005. Album sales were way different then. The music industry was different then.

    • rihanna is groupie January 18, 2015

      Of course Rihana would sell more than new girl SHE IS RIHANAN AND THEY PLOUGHED MILLONS INOT the promo for UNA; shame it only ended selling 3.6. ORA SOLD 500K WW. so and this was without USA; she dine well.

      • Skyfall January 18, 2015

        Your opinion is voided Emelie sundae and Adele albums outsold RIHta who is an established artist with their first and second albums.

        Beyonce who has been in the game since the 90s recent album failed to outsell Unapologetic in the UK

      • rihanna is groupie January 18, 2015

        BUT SHE KILLED HER In the most imprint marker EVER THE USA.

        CASE CLOSED. UNA could barely go platinum in the USA – BEYONCE bodies the us chart. BEYOND WAS HIT IN THE UK. BEYOND IS AT 5 MILL; UNA IS 3.6.

        let that sink in………

      • rihanna is groupie January 18, 2015

        Adele oustold RIHANAN TOO. Emile has done very well. I agree with you and have nothing bad to say on her. Rita is still seen as one of the UK’s top singers. So well done to adele, Emile, Ellie and Rita

        Any questions?

      • LB January 18, 2015

        Actually Unapologetic is at 4 million copies sold. And yes, Beyonce had the biggest rollout that year. She changed the game when her album dropped, but what does that matter.

        Beyonce’s success is not going to stop Rihanna’s success and vice-versa. They have co-existed in the past and will continue to co-exist.

        You should be more worried about your fav and how she cannot chart a single in the top ten of the HOT 100.

        Remember, if Jessie J is selling 20K, there’s no way Rita Ora is selling more.

      • rihanna is groupie January 18, 2015

        Only 4 million? LOL It is at 3.6 and beyonce is at 5 mill. UNA flopped. I though itv would be at 8 – 10 mill. I mean, she had all that promo and all those radio songs. What went wrong?

        And rihanna’ success is not going to stop Rita ORA.

      • Skyfall January 18, 2015

        I mean they outsold Rihanna, and I Stan Adele Rihanna and Mariah.. So you shading Rihanna with Adele doesn’t phase me. Also Beyoncé has not sold 5 million WW don’t let these delusional beyhive have you posting false receipts if it had thatgrapejuice beys biggest fan site would of made an article on it. Rihanna has sold more records than Beyonce, Adele Rita and Emilie sundae so again you fail

      • LB January 18, 2015

        LMAO you need to update your figures hun, 4 million sold. And it doesn’t matter what happened, the album is still a success. 4 million is not a FLOP, especially considering Rita Ora cannot even sell worldwide what Unapologetic sold in the UK

      • rihanna is groupie January 18, 2015

        It has sold 5 million as of nov 18. I cannot copy and paste. ALSO HER LABUM WAS FULL price, Rihanna was discounted after a month. LOL

  26. Skyfall January 18, 2015

    @LB screeeeeaaaaaaminnnnnnggg. Not at the letting other dudes fuxking raw. RIHta Ora is something else

    • Skyfall January 18, 2015

      And the title if the website is very appropriate considering RIHta is a d lister at best.

    • LB January 18, 2015

      Not just any dudes, 20 dudes, the way her body count is set up. I cannot wait for more tea from Calvin

    • rihanna is groupie January 18, 2015

      LOL let us talk about the rumours about rihanna.

      She takes men and women from clubs back to her hotel for orgies and she had to send her PA, Jen, to pick up medication.

      She is more or less close to filing for bankruptcy

      She has overdoes several time in the last 2 years.

      And body count is super high

      How leaned dicaprio calls her up at like 4am and

      • LB January 18, 2015

        SCREAMING at that fake tea on Rihanna.

        The tea on Rita Ora is coming from guys she has dated, and not just Rob is spilling this good tea, Calvin Harris too.

      • rihanna is groupie January 18, 2015

        But those are guys who she dumped. CASE CLSOED. If she was a h**, why did they date her? WHEN a man is dumped, he will say anything to trash the woman. I guess Rita refused to take them back and this is how they lash out.

      • rihanna is groupie January 18, 2015

        She has an affect on men. Rob has not been the same since, I hear he attempted s****** and TMZ blocked the story to protect the family. He should not have messed with Rita. Karma.

        Calvin has new girl yet he cannot stop peaking about Rita. Talk about pressed.

      • LB January 18, 2015

        Oh please, she is a w**** who sleeps with 20 men raw, that is why they dumped her.

        She was busying f****** Calvin for tracks whilst doing the dirty with Justin Bieber, this is why Calvin blocked his music.

        Why would they lie? And this coming from you who attempted to spread fake tea about Rihanna, I CANNOT

  27. LB January 18, 2015

    And don’t listen to the delusional fan, Rita Oral has been trying a failing to crack the US market.

    How We do – #62
    R.I.P – Did not enter the Hot 100, charted in the BB Bubbling under kiiiiiiii

    • rihanna is groupie January 18, 2015

      You are right. It was not a smash hit. But, that does not mean anything. She will make it on her second album. Also, that did not stop the amount of deals and covers she has today. That is the scary thing. Imagine what she can achieve when she gets her hits.

      Rita is not like black women. She does not let hurdles stop her, in fact, it makes her work harder

      • LB January 18, 2015

        But she will not be getting hits, and those deals is because she is connected to Roc Nation, Roc Nation is connected to the big wigs in Hollywood because of Rihanna.

        If that connected wasn’t there, Rita wouldn’t be getting those deals. She better kiss the ground Rihanna walks on.

  28. LB January 18, 2015

    I think the Rita Ora stan needs to take its medication, these hallucinations it is having are cute for a little while.

    I’ll be nice so I’ll set realistic goals, come back when Rita Oral sells out theatre.

  29. Skyfall January 18, 2015

    Tinashe deserves the attention RIHta is getting, she writes and produces her music her album is amazing, she can sing her dancing and performing is better and most importantly she doesn’t have to F**** for tracks.

  30. #TeamTinashe Stan (In Loving Memory Of Aaliyah Haughton) January 18, 2015

    Whats the obsession over Rita? I haven’t heard any of her stuff in the states.
    You guys talk about her like she is a huge threat. lol I wanna know about her now haha

  31. Skyfall January 18, 2015

    How many SINGERS have won Oscars, remember the award is for motion pictures so if the singer doesn’t have a song on a soundtrack how will they be nominated? Rihanna didn’t do songs for movie soundtracks because she was too busy releasing songs for her OWN albums something RIHta is having trouble doing. Also that Oscar nom is really Dianne’s RIHtas name is on the ballad because she is the performer of the song but the award would go to Dianne. Also you said why would RIHta worry about music when getting deals and movies. You so know music stars make more than movie star right?

  32. blue January 18, 2015

    pon de replay >>>>>> rita’s career

    end of..

    • rihanna is groupie January 18, 2015

      • blue January 18, 2015

        rihanna is reported to pull in 500k per show plus a cut of the gross. that means from the loud tour alone she made 50 million just to get up on stage and perform

  33. LB January 18, 2015

    Ora – 500K worldwide
    Unapologetic – 600K UK

    Kiiiiiiiii and Rita Oral was on every billboard, show, X Factor, parking lot…etc in the UK that year

    • rihanna is groupie January 18, 2015

      BEYONCE 5 MILLION

      UNA – 3. 6

      Cmpare rihann to an act that is A list. RITA just come out. YOU do know rita’s album did not come out in the USA.

    • rihanna is groupie January 18, 2015

      Yassss L LOVE IT typical ghetto black goon. Does not know how to handle money

      k in 2009 she was down to her last $2 million, and didn’t know. According to the latest paperwork, she made $11 million in cash in 2009, and blew through more than half of her earnings because of her accountant’s bad business advice.

      A good portion of the money went to a more than $7 million mansion, which she ended up selling for $2 million less than she paid.

      • LB January 18, 2015

        SCREAMING, are you bringing up 2009 receipts to prove Rihanna has got money troubles LMAO. You know she’s done a lot since 2009 right.

      • rihanna is groupie January 18, 2015

        It proves that even though she was HUGE IN 2009, after GGGB, she only had million and a house she lost profit on.

        RITA HAS 3 MILLION IN 2013,which means she is better at managing her finances than rhino, who blows all her cash and will end up like Mike tyson and MC hammer

        Typical black. It is not how much money you make….it how much u save and invest.

  34. LB January 18, 2015

    Don’t listen to the lie, Rita Ora didn’t just come out, she’s been signed since 2009, only thing is she has got nothing to show for it.

    • rihanna is groupie January 18, 2015

      her song came out in 2012.

    • rihanna is groupie January 18, 2015

      she has nothing to show? SHE IS ON HIT SHOW IN THE UK U BOON. Does he not have the most number for a female in the UK and brit nomination, boon?

    • rihanna is groupie January 18, 2015

      RITA HAS NOTHING TO SHOW? ERMM…………………….She is performing at the oscars.

  35. rihanna is groupie January 18, 2015

    HAS HA HA HA EVEN THOUGH RIHANNA HAS SOLD MORE, SHE IS typical black goon. IN 2009 on rated R she only had 2 MILLION DOLLARS in cash left

    RITA ORA HAD 3 MILLION IN 2013

    THE WHITE PRETTY GUIRL WINS over the dumb black goon who does not know how to manage her finances HA HA HA Hshe will be broke like MC hammer by 30

    mark my words!

  36. LB January 18, 2015

    Let’s see, what has happened since 2009.

    LOUD Tour: $90 million dollar gross (Rita Ora will never)
    LOUD album: Sold over 6 million copies
    Talk That Talk album: 5.5 million copies sold (and she has writing credits)
    Over 170 million records sold
    DWT: Over $150 million dollar gross (Rita will never)
    Unapologetic: 4 million copies sold
    The Monster tour: $6 million dollar gross per show

    And you expect me to believe Rihanna has got money troubles. I haven’t even counted her deals and endorsements.

    • rihanna is groupie January 18, 2015

      and she still does not know how to manage her finances hence why she is always suing her accountants
      2009 – 2 million

      2013 – rita – 3 million

      BLACK OWMEN are the poorest people in the USA, who are worth the least.

      • LB January 18, 2015

        LMAO in 2009, can you read honey. Is there something wrong with your thinking capacity. Is the math too advanced for you? Just ask, I can explain it SLOWLY

      • rihanna is groupie January 18, 2015

        I know it is 2009. I though Rihana would have like 50 mill at that time. But, she only had 2 million to her name and a house she sold at lost? HUH?

        What happened to the SOS MONEY? THE GGGB MONEY? ALL the cover girl money? I guess her Puma deal at 1 million VS rita’s adidas deal at 4,5 mill prove that she has terrible negotiating skills.

        How comes Rita’s deal with adidas is worth more than her puma deal if she meant to be some big shot?

    • rihanna is groupie January 18, 2015

      THE tour are gross for; that is not personal money that does to her. EM make most of the money on that our.

      She does not wrte songs; there is no royalties.

      • LB January 18, 2015

        She still gets a check. The bigger the tour, the bigger her check. Again, is the math or logic too advanced for you?

        Rihanna gets a bigger check playing a 30K arena than Rita Ora does playing a 2K venue. Do you get it now?

      • rihanna is groupie January 18, 2015

        WHAT does it matter if she gets a chqque and blows all the money? Mike tyson ws getting money, then he blew it all 300 mill he blew. Look at him now. That is rihanan. When they stop playing her on radio. Without radio. she si done. beyonce does not need radio as we have seen.

    • rihanna is groupie January 18, 2015

      e just got wind of a JUICY bit of gossip. A VERY popular singer that is PROMINENTLY featured on M** is close to BANKRUPTCY!!

      According to an ULTRA RELIABLE insider snitch the GORGEOUS SINGER is spending OUT OF CONTROL… and not making enough to pay for her lavish lifestyle. The insider tells M** that the singer has NOT been making the kind of money touring that she used to. Explains our snitch, “[Singer] had a tour last year that did OK, not what everyone hoped. And her tour this year, with [another popular artist] was great, but he got most of the money.”

      But despite her MODEST ticket sales, the girl is living like a ROCKEFELLER. The insider told M**, “Private jets, yachts, and she has her family in [REDACTED] living like kings and queens. She’s going to be broke soon if things don’t change.”

      Well it doesn’t look like things are going to change anytime soon either. You see her NEW ALBUM keeps getting delayed because the label is NOT IMPRESSED with the songs she’s turned in so far. And the word on the street is that her new music – which consists mostly of dance tracks – is not going to be as popular as she’d hope.

      • LB January 18, 2015

        And not a single name was mentioned. You tried and failed.

      • rihanna is groupie January 18, 2015

        IT is blind item. They cannot legal name names, BOON! Come, at least pretend u were born with human brain and not a c**** brain.

        SO much financial problesm for rihanna. HA, I love it.

  37. LB January 18, 2015

    Anyway I have to go, I hope you take your medication, or better yet, voluntarily check yourself into a mental asylum, you must know you’re not well right? Surely you should be able to see that you’re suffering from some mental disorder right?

    • rihanna is groupie January 18, 2015

      Only if you bleach to resemble humans.

  38. rihanna is groupie January 18, 2015

    Rihanna made the claims public and filed documents that stated that in 2009 she had $11 million dollars in cash. Her accountant’s bad money handling left her with only $2 million and a list of expenses by the end of that same year.

    WHAT? SHE blew 7 millon in one year? On houses she could not sell at profit ?WHAT dumb c***, dis this boon not even go to school? I am so glad Rita has her sister and father as her managers. What kind of ghetto mess it this? must be a culture thing, she is promo the west indies. Rita is EUROPEAN!

  39. rihanna is groupie January 18, 2015

    e problems first started when her accountant told her it would be a good idea to buy a home that was listed for between $7 and $7 1/2 million. Although the accountant saw the home as a good investment, Rihanna ended up selling it and taking a $2 million loss.

    GHETTO BLACK boon fool. SO dumb!

  40. rihanna is groupie January 18, 2015

    Rihana also has problems with the IRS. NO wonder she had to drop albums every year. She needed the cash. I see rihanna in jail for tax very soon.

  41. rihanna is groupie January 18, 2015

    YAY! for the smart ORA family investing in Kosovo’s upcoming economy and global property empire; investing in HOMES THEY CAN AFFORD.

  42. rihanna is groupie January 18, 2015

    e learned that Rihanna is SHORT SELLING her mansion. The Bajan singer is asking sellers to pay $2.5 MILLION LESS than the amount she paid for the home just two years ago.

    The home was just put up for listing – and is being listed as a SHORT SALE – meaning that Rihanna’s MORTGAGE on the home is greater than the amount of money she’s ASKING.

    So we know what you’re thinking – isn’t it a SMART idea to do a short sale if the value of the home is less than the amount of the mortgage owed. Well the fact is that banks will NOT approve of a short sale, if they believe the borrower has the FINANCES to continue paying the mortgage. So that means unless she’s BROKE or under financial DISTRESS . . . she CAN’T do a short sale. And if she KNOWINGLY advertised the sale of her home as a SHORT SALE (like she did below) knowing that she WOULD NOT QUALIFY, that could be considered a FRAUD.

  43. rihanna is groupie January 18, 2015

    FOR 5 YEARS……….SHE has had nothing but financial troubles and lawsuits LOL LOL this is great.

    Rihanna sued her former money managers, claiming they mismanaged her funds and owed her millions. However the firm, Berdon LLP, fired back, saying Ri’s money woes were her own fault adding that they owe Rihanna nothing. For the past 9 months, Berdon has been trying to get Rihanna to sit down for an interview however, RiRi always seem to cancel, avoid or extend. Berdon even claim that they accommodated Rihanna being in London and agreed for a deposition there costing them $100,000 back in June 19th. Now, the management company is pissed and is out for blood some payback.

    The company is asking a judge to dismiss the singer’s multi-million dollar case against them and moreover, they want her fined at least $100,000 for their wasted time and resources.

  45. ENOUGH ONIKA (NEW & IMPROVED) January 18, 2015

    I like Ciara, I think she’s very talented and I like her public persona. With that being said, she’s had THREE major chances at a mainstream comeback. I think she should deem this “album” a mixtape tbh…She really should start from the bottom and create a new fan base because the ones she has now ain’t buying sh*t. For reference, look at the Lizzy Grant aka Lana Del Rey blueprint

  46. FutureCIARA January 18, 2015

    How are yall ready, yet MADT, at the same time!
