Commercial success may have evaded her in recent years, but that’s done little to stop Ciara‘s creative machine from churning out smashes in abundance, celebrating the critical acclaim nabbed by R&B slow jam ‘Body Party’ last year.

Now, with a new studio album in mind, the beauty whips up fresh momentum for her brand with a series of snaps uploaded to her ‘Instagram’ page, setting the photo sharing outlet alight!

So, why the ‘Wilhelmina’ model has everyone and their mom singing her praises?

Find out below…

Sweet!

At face value, the pics above are nothing more than that…pictures. However, as anyone in the know will know, these snaps serve as an invaluable dose of promo for the singer’s forthcoming material.

For, creating stellar material and killer visuals have never been Cici’s problem, but getting the world to acknowledge them has, resulting in her flying under the radar while the likes of Beyonce and Rihanna soar above her by way of consistent support from radio and the mainstream press at large.

Put simply, with over 300,000 ‘likes’ scored by the snaps in the last three hours, one can only imagine just how beneficial shots like these will be should she use her ‘Instagram‘ account to promote her new material.

 Will Ciara‘s next era finally see her nab the acclaim she deserves? Only time will tell. However, one thing is for certain.

With a career that’s seen her overcome even the most trying of times, we’d say there’s very little this Southern belle can’t do!

Do you agree?

        Me too sis!

    • Rosie July 6, 2014

      The dreads make her look like a homeless street rat. But I guess that’s that future influence.

  19. FutureCIARA July 6, 2014

    That 2009 Brazil crowd was soooo tired!
    That b**** was working! She sounded really good Live there too, No Lip-Synch there baby!

    I loved how Ricardo Tisci came out at the end and walked her away, That was an amazing show!

    WORK WORK WORK WORK WORK WORK WORK WORK WORK WORK WORK WORK WORK WORK BISH YOU BETTA WORK!

    Nobody’s Helicopter Ponytail is coming for hers in this video tho!

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vD6qaYFVUng

  20. smh July 6, 2014

    She has over 5 million followers on twitter and couldn’t sell any albums so what is 300,000 likes gonna do for her career? She is one of those artist that can only reach a certain limit

    • FutureCIARA July 6, 2014

      She has no limits babe, She’s sold Multi Platinum ALBUMS before, Every artist has to overcome obsicles in the road.

      My point is She Been There Done That got the Certifications to match. BYE!

      • Valerie July 6, 2014

        Umm only one of her albums is multi-platinum and that was her first one, she has not had one since. Clearly she has limits.

      • FutureCIARA July 6, 2014

        GOOOOOOORL…… and with that statement u just proved u dont know what the fukk you are talking about!

        Do your homework before you try and troll you dumb bittch! Google is only a search away
        BYE!

      • Valerie July 6, 2014

        Prove me wrong then.

    • HA! July 6, 2014

      I wouldn’t even waste my breath. Ciara stans are delusional.

    • Ben July 7, 2014

      that’s one of my faves out of basic instinct!

  21. HA! July 6, 2014

    Ummm… %)
    This hairstyle doesn’t slay anything.
    You guys want her to win so bad but keep comparing her to two ladies that absolutely s*** on Ciara’s entire existence. Bey nor Riri had nothing to do with this post.
    C#6 will be a flop just like 3-5!!!
    Bookmark it!
    Anyway this stan s*** is seriously for people with no lives. Some of you live on this site.

    • FutureCIARA July 6, 2014

      But you came here to troll with a Paragraph bashing One artist….

      One word for U! #Bothered

  22. Love Life July 6, 2014

    New era? She should really save herself the shame and not

  23. FutureCIARA July 6, 2014

    The Haters really do understand their position in all this is Irony, Right?

  24. Nope July 6, 2014

    Braids, twists, dreads(whatever you wanna call em)look so dirty. Doesn’t look dirty as hell.

    • FutureCIARA July 6, 2014

      Your comment is one huge contradiction!
      LMFAO
      FAIL!

  25. Valerie July 6, 2014

    I like it in these pictures.

  26. Mimi Carey July 6, 2014

    Lmao at y’all insinuating 300k likes has anything to do with sales. She has millions of followers and none of her past 3 albums crossed the 200k mark foh!!!

    • FutureCIARA July 6, 2014

      Mariah is an Icon tho With millions of followers too, Is “Me. I Am Extinct” Gold yet?

      • Mimi Carey July 6, 2014

        Icon and LEGEND. Enough said!

      • FutureCIARA July 6, 2014

        56k is enough said!

    • TurntUp4Cici July 6, 2014

      B****! Didn’t you see the part where they mentioned radio? And did you forget that likes count for a whole lot nowadays. Suhlut!

  27. BrandNuStar July 6, 2014

    David hit the nail on the head. Ciara’s problem is radio, most stations don’t play her music and if they do they only go with one single. Thats why BP slayed and the album flopped.

    • Mark111 July 6, 2014

      Well that too, but she need to have a set schedule. Stop throwing singles on the wall til one sticks. Work on music, have two singles ready and a SET album date. She been having album push backs since The Evolution. Bey and Rih has NEVERpushed back an album.

      • SHAWTY July 6, 2014

        @BrandNuStar Ciara never released a 2nd single. It was supposed to be Overdose but they scrapped that once she got pregnant. So there was no other songs for the radio to play.

      • Mark111 July 6, 2014

        So I’m Out never happened?

      • Fentylicious July 6, 2014

        Ultimate death…I’m out was definitely a single and so was “SORRY”

      • Mark111 July 6, 2014

        Don’t forget Got Me Good, but I can understand how you forgot tho.

  28. Mark111 July 6, 2014

    I’m digging the style Cici. After all these years of jacking Janet amd Aaliyah, you finally have your own.

    • Rosie July 6, 2014

      Didn’t beyonce just do this? You act like Ciara is revolutionary.

      • Mark111 July 6, 2014

        Bey had those Poetic Justice box braids, Ciara has dreads.

      • FutureCIARA July 6, 2014

        When did Bey do dreads? Im sorr but they are totally different than Braids

    • Fentylicious July 6, 2014

      She’s still a f***** flop lol

  29. Mark111 July 6, 2014

    So is she working on Flop 6?

    • Mimi Carey July 6, 2014

      Unfortunately

    • FutureCIARA July 6, 2014

      When will the Deadliyahh movie premiere on Lifetime Tv?

      • IStanForYourFav July 6, 2014

        D********? Really? Didn’t you not too long ago apologize for calling the Stunning Aaliyah that? Don’t let him get to you like that. It’s not that serious hun.

      • #TeamTinashe Stan (BUY “2 On”) July 6, 2014

        Really? How sick are you? Have you visited your doctor? You need help.

        Ppl like to bash me about Queen Tinashe but you don’t see me wishing for their faves to die or being crazy like that.

        You need help.

        Here is something to p*** you off more why is it that the real QUEEN, Janet Jackson didn’t reply to Ciara’s comment about doing a collab but wanted to do one with Aaliyah? Just hol’ dat!

        But seriously get help and don’t talk about deceased people. R.I.P to the Young Legend that did so much in such a short career span, Aaliyah! We Love You!

      • FutureCIARA July 6, 2014

        Yall are really bothered with these novels!

        F** Mark328932829 and his fave! He asks for it and the bish wont let up…

        Goodnight & go duche your p****** pressed cunnts!

  30. Dante July 6, 2014

    I never understood why Ciara always flopped so hard. I still listen to Overdose, Sophomore, Keep On Looking, etc from her last album. I hope that this album gets the commercial success it deserves.

  31. The_Famous_Ciara July 6, 2014

    my fave Ciara will snatch some blonde wigs for real.
    Cici is lookin more gorgeous and beautiful nowadays. Riri looks dry and beyonce looks matured.

  32. #TeamTinashe Stan (BUY “2 On”) July 6, 2014

    I like the look. She looks s***!

    If you can’t get over with your current look go ahead and steal someone elses (Janet) look. I love it. She learned from Bey.

    Glad Tinashe doesn’t have to do that 😉

    • IStanForYourFav July 6, 2014

      Does anyone even know your fav to know if she’s steal?

      • #TeamTinashe Stan (BUY “2 On”) July 6, 2014

        Of course they know. She has the hottest female R&B song right now “2 On!”:D

        Now HoL’ Dat!

      • FutureCIARA July 6, 2014

        That 2 0n song is FLOPPING dear!

      • #TeamTinashe Stan (BUY “2 On”) July 6, 2014

        @FutureCiWhereRa FLOPPING? The word “Flop” has been associated next to your fave’s name for the last six yrs. I’m sorry to say, no one is investing into your faves music anymore.

        That’s sad…….. but TRUE! 🙁

  33. IStanForYourFav July 6, 2014

    Well doesn’t she look pretty? This is no shade, but did Ciara really burn the bridges that made her successful? I have always wondered what happened to Ciara’s career. It’s not like the music is bad, and her image is perfect (Sweet Southern-Bell)… What happened??

    • #TeamTinashe Stan (BUY “2 On”) July 6, 2014

      Honestly her music is bad nowadays. “Body Party” got her back and than she stumbled back down. Her last album was way too Pop than R&B.

      The music is just bad tho!

      • IStanForYourFav July 6, 2014

        Actually “Ciara” is WAAAAAYYYYYYYY better than Fantasy Ride & Basic Instinct. Fantasy Ride was a bumpy ride and Basic Instinct was basic. It was like she was trying too hard. “Ciara” was the best she’s done since 2006. She just needed more promo and etc. I guess

    • #TeamTinashe Stan (BUY “2 On”) July 6, 2014

      There is only so much a record label can do for one artist, especially an established, struggling talent like her.

      I’ve seen Epic Records have Ciara on Mornings, Late Night shows and did a lot of TV appearances to make her fans know that she has an album coming out. Didn’t work!

      Ciara needs to build more of a loyal fanbase is what I’m just going to say. Her albums fail because she doesn’t have strong loyal fans. Like for example, everyone knows Nicki Minaj’s “Pills N Potions” song sucks but people still support it because they’re her “Loyal Fanbase.”

  34. JER July 6, 2014

    Too bad she isn’t setting a stage or chart alight

  35. Sisqo (king of R&B) July 6, 2014

    Love the dreads but this girl could rock a bowl on her head she will always be a non singing flop.

  36. I drag hos for Rihiconna July 6, 2014

    you b****** ARE FOREVER SEETHING OVER QUEEN RIHANNA.B**** please.Ciflop looks like Bob Marley.Rihanna slayed her dreads.CI-ERROR has nothing on the fashion icon!!! Your favorite is a lessor who got dropped..Fuc outta here

  37. RoyalKev July 6, 2014

    Omg! Ciara looks stunning! I really hope she slays with her next era! Can life just be fair once again?! Cici so deserves it! … Btw, she looks like Denise Huxtable. I was just watching Cosby reruns over the weekend.

    • RoyalKev July 6, 2014

      Glad my first comment is no longer being held. I thought there was a problem mentioning sitcoms!

  38. RoyalKev July 6, 2014

    Omg! Ciara looks stunning! I really hope she slays with her next era! Can life just be fair once again?! Cici so deserves it!

  39. credit July 6, 2014

    *jamaican accent* CHA!!!! GWAN CICI!! YUH TUN DREAD LOCK RASTA!! bloodclot!!!

    i bet rihanna’s mad she didn’t dread first.

    • Fentylicious July 6, 2014

      But she did. See WHYB video and performance on AI in 2011.

  40. Fentylicious July 6, 2014

    Why can’t you f*** just compliment Cierror without mentioning her superiors?

  41. Mark111 July 6, 2014

    Who is this FeatureCiara person and why is he/she mad?

  42. ENOUGH ONIKA (NEW & IMPROVED) July 6, 2014

    She’s just beautiful. No amount of hate can take that away from her. I wasn’t sure about these dreds at first but she gorgeous in whatever hair style. This next era is gonna be hard with that Future influence

  43. Rosie July 7, 2014

    Mess, not even 20 comment into the post I get a mention from my number 3 stan, FutureCIARA. Calling me obsessed honey? I didn’t even comment yesterday, kii. I barely come for your fave at all anymore. The irony. Maybe if you were as concerned about Ciara in real life as you are with me her last album would have sold 250K worldwide already.

    • FutureCIARA July 7, 2014

      Why is Ed Sheeran slaying UV?

      • Rosie July 7, 2014

        Worry about your fave first, honey. UV already sold more in the US than she has worldwide.

  44. Rosie July 7, 2014

    In other news, she looks better here. The other pic with the dreads was unflattering.

    • CherylSoldier July 7, 2014

      In other news, ed sheeran has already outsold Lana. Absolute death. I guess the uv reviews were right. What critical acclaim? I’m screaming!

      • Rosie July 7, 2014

        The self drag when it has a higher Metacritic score than any Cheryl album (which it is also doing better than since he can actually release outside of the UK). You’re hilarious. I just called you out on that yesterday when it only has two negative reviews.
        But cling to Ed Sheeran all you like? I don’t know why you’re using this as a drag when he actually had promo and a worldwide top 10 hit with “Sing.” Not to mention his music is far more mainstream and his fanbase is mostly teenage girls (aka the only group who still buys music on a large scale other than country fans). The only one losing is Chav.

      • CherylSoldier July 7, 2014

        If that were true then Selena Gomez, Demi lovato, etc would be platinum. They buy singles, nice try. And stop with the 2 reviews nonsense and the literal clinging to meta critic when every woman is literally dragging Lana for her 50s stands in feminism. And not you defending it!! Sing wasn’t a top 10 hit in the us btw, it was top 20 like west coast, yet it has outsold uv in a week in albums and singles. SCREAMS.

    • FutureCIARA July 7, 2014

      Everyone knows your obsessed with Ciara and that you have a secret Csquad Twitter account!

      • Rosie July 7, 2014

        OK, so find it? I don’t know which Twitter account you’re talking about.

  45. Dev July 7, 2014

    Image has never been an issue, it’s been music and vocals.

  46. FutureCIARA July 7, 2014

    Is Llama still fukking her way to the top and letting old dirty men use her wallz up

    • Rosie July 7, 2014

      No, and this is the most tired drag I have ever seen on this site. Her new boyfriend is only a few months older than Future and is actually attractive and richer. Kii.
      Has Ciara sold 250K worldwide yet?

  47. CherylSoldier July 7, 2014

    When will Lana stop clinging to the 50s (and Botox/nose reconstruction) for inspiration? I hope this era doesn’t get slayed by Ed sheeran…
