Ciara may have spent the last year dropping gems like ‘Jump,’ ‘Better Thangs,’ and ‘Da Girls‘ as teases of what was to come on her new body of work, the long-awaited follow-up to 2019’s ‘Beauty Marks,’ but – to the surprise of her dedicated fans (affectionately called the #CSquad) – the project’s tracklist was devoid of these titles.

Instead, the GRAMMY winner is thrilling music lovers with a collection of never-before-heard cuts assembled for the new EP, ‘Cici.’

Kicked off by the release of the Chris Brown-assisted single ‘How We Roll,’ the 7-song project – which also features guest appearances from Lil Baby and Big Freedia – is delivered via the diva’s own imprint, Beauty Marks Entertainment, in partnership with Uptown and Republic Records.

Britney Spears is no stranger to headlines and yesterday (August 16) brought with it another major twist for the singer: her husband Sam Asghari has filed for divorce just 14 months after they married.

In the 24 hours that have passed, the rumor mill has cranked into overdrive about the pair (who began dating after meeting on the set of her ‘Slumber Party’ video in 2016).

Indeed, while all that has been publicly disclosed is that the aspiring actor cited “irreconcilable differences” in his filing, reports have claimed that Asghari is gearing up to challenge the couple’s prenup in a bid to force Spears’ hand for what effectively would amount to a “go peacefully” payment.

Breaking his silence, the 29-year-old has issued a statement – as have his reps – dispelling, well, everything.
