Check out Ciara!

The R&B chanteuse is wasting no time snapping back into shape following the birth of her son Future Jr back in May.

Over the last few weeks, she has been chronicling her gym regime on Instagram and today unveiled the fruit of her continued labor.

Rocking – as she calls it – “Er’ Thang Givenchy”, the ‘Body Party’ belter also debuted a new sleek, darker hair do. Hot tamale!

Here’s hoping she’s cooking up equally hot new music. Call us impatient, but we’re thirsty for new CiCi material and are keen to see her not lose the momentum she gained from ‘Body’ and ‘I’m Out’.

In any case, peep another snap below…

‘Myx‘ vixen Nicki Minaj may have failed to make the most new single ‘Pills N Potions’ on a promo front, but it would seem its follow-up will have no problem securing the rapper’s undivided attention this month.

Reportedly sassy, sexy and infectiously catchy, ‘Anaconda’ is also said to sample the Sir Mix a Lot classic ‘Baby Got Back’, packing a coquettish humour that may be akin to Princess Superstar‘s raunchy bop ‘Bad Babysitter.

Now, even before its release, the forthcoming single has impacted Billboard, storming one of its charts thanks to its controversial artwork.

Problematic, as these vices didn’t go unnoticed by a friend who threatened to tell his wife everything, forcing him to reveal secrets he hoped he’d never had to share.
