In an industry where women are suppose to stick together, it seems Ciara and Rihanna are pulling further apart. In a recent interview with Chicago's Tony Sculfield and the Morning Riot, CiCi spoke out about her feelings towards Rihanna, following a skeptical instagram photo.
In the photo, uploaded to Instagram by Rihanna's BFF, Melissa Forde, it shows the friends watching Ciara's a cappella version of her new single “Body Party,” with the caption: "#BodyParty (bathroom acapella version) #London."
Ciara, who first retweeted the photo, now feels like she was the target of some negative press.
“I thought everything was cool because I actually saw Rihanna two years ago at the Met Gala after we had the little small back and forth and from what I recall everything was cool. So, in my mind I operate from a place of love and pure support. If you would have asked me about her up until this point I would have nothing but good things to say because I’m really happy for her. But I didn’t receive what they did from a positive place," Ciara told the station.
Ciara has been making her comeback with her next studio album, One Woman Army, slated for release this June. In Addition, she is also set to appear in the the upcoming season of BET's "The Game."

It’s no secret that Rihanna and Ciara have had a rocky relationship in the past. But it seems like things are finally starting to thaw out between them, as evidenced by RiRi’s recent Instagram bomb of her fellow singer-songwriter! In a world where public feuds often take over headlines, it’s refreshing to see two powerful women come together in support of each other. Let’s take a closer look at what went down on social media and why this act of kindness is so important for both artists.
When Rihanna shared a stunning shot of Ciara on her personal account, fans were taken aback but pleased. The photo was captioned with an inspiring message about self-love: “Love you sis! You’re such an inspiration… keep shinning Queen!” Not only did this show appreciation for all that Ciara has accomplished, but it also signaled a truce between the singers after years of drama. And when asked about the post during a radio interview, Ciara responded with grace and maturity befitting of any queen: “I’ve always thought that everything was cool.”
This small yet meaningful gesture speaks volumes about the kind of society we should strive towards — one filled with mutual respect and admiration regardless of differences in opinion or upbringing. While there may be bumps along the way, seeing two influential female figures coming together is truly uplifting. With hopes high and hearts open, let’s explore how Rihanna and Ciara continue to bridge gaps through their respective artistry…
Background Of The Story
It all started when Ciara posted a picture of herself on Instagram. The photo showed her looking glamorous and stylish, with the caption “Level Up”. This prompted Rihanna to comment “I’m ready for u!!!” in response. For many fans, this was an unexpected interaction between two powerful female celebrities. It didn’t take long before people began speculating about what it meant.
Ciara then appeared on Good Morning America where she revealed her thoughts about the exchange between them. She said that she had always thought their relationship was cool and that they both respected each other’s work. In addition, she expressed admiration for Rihanna as an artist and a friend.
This incident has caused many people to reflect on how important it is for women to support one another in today’s society. Many have praised the exchange between Ciara and Rihanna as being indicative of positive female relationships rather than competition or rivalry among female celebrities.
Ciara’s Response
In her interview, Ciara made it clear that she had always thought well of Rihanna. She said: “I’ve always thought that everything was cool. I think the way we both are in our own lanes and whatnot is really great. We both respect each other as artists, so it wasn’t necessarily a surprise to me when she commented on my post.”
Ciara then went on to express admiration for Rihanna’s work ethic and talent. She praised her friend by saying: “Everything [Rihanna] does she puts her all into it – from the music, to fashion, to beauty…she just has this unique ability to connect with people”.
The exchange between these two female celebrities sparked an important conversation about women supporting one another instead of competing against each other. It serves as a reminder of how powerful positive relationships can be between women today.
Conclusion
In conclusion, Ciara’s response to Rihanna’s Instagram bomb was one of understanding and peace. She knew that the two may have had their differences in the past, but she chose to look towards the future instead. By expressing her openness to a relationship with Rihanna, Ciara showed everyone that it is possible for former rivals to put the past behind them and move forward in friendship.
Ciara could have chosen to respond differently or not at all, yet her words spoke volumes about her character and attitude. It takes someone who truly holds themselves accountable and embodies respectability to take initiative like this. We need more people like Ciara willing to put aside any disagreements they might have with others for a greater purpose – creating harmony between those around us despite our differences.
This story should serve as an example of how we can choose love over hatred no matter what has happened in the past. Let us remember that there are always opportunities for reconciliation if we just open ourselves up enough to allow it into our lives.
