Ciara |
Inspired by Janet Jackson, young triple threat Ciara (nee Ciara Princess Harris) draws comparisons to Jackson with her sexy style � that will soon include her own fashion designs � impossible-looking signature dance moves, and incredibly catchy songs.
Ciara's 2004 debut album, Goodies included a No. 1 Billboard Hot 100 hit � the album's title track � as well as three top two singles. Her sophomore release, Ciara: The Evolution, went even further, going Platinum after only five weeks, and selling over two million copies worldwide to date. This year will see the Grammy Award-winning performer/ songwriter release her third and most highly anticipated fulllength to date titled Fantasy Ride.
Famous for her fierce dance moves Ciara told AOL Music, "Ever since I could walk I have been moving to the music," and her songs reflect that innate love of dancing. Tracks like Goodies' "1, 2 Step," which featured Missy Elliot, skip and bounce with beats made for the floor and her track "Get Up" featuring Chamillionaire made its way onto the Step Up soundtrack.
Her broad set of talents has also given her unique opportunities; Ciara was asked to perform on the TV show So You Think You Can Dance and Gwen Stefani chose the young performer to open for her on her Harajuku Lovers Tour.
With her musical stylings constantly evolving and growing with every release, and her schedule packed for the upcoming months with the release of Fantasy Ride, Ciara is definitely in for a big year in 2009.
