Ciara is a Lover. She values the essentials of life more than money; which includes LOVE. The singer is waiting patiently for the man of her dreams. Watching this interview made me love Ciara more than I did before. The attitude she has is wonderful, considering the industry she works in.
I am proud of Ciara for keeping her head up and believing in her dream...OnPointCeleb!
Ciara on how her parents’ 30 year marriage shaped who she is as a person
The way that I look at life is that I only understand the concept of marriage. My grandparents were married for 50 years, so when I date a person, I don’t like to jump fast. I don’t like casual dating, I don’t understand that so well. I don’t mean that in a funny way but for example in every relationship, I may have been around a person for a little second. Most of the people I usually meet them from working or being around them and then it usually turns into something. I don’t really understand the concept of randomly meeting someone and then going out. I have very few experiences like that. So because of my parents, I move slow in a relationship.
Ciara on Love:
I really believe that love is everything. It is so necessary, without love you have nothing. You can’t live without love in my book and in my world. So I look forward to that moment.
Ciara on her fear of not finding Love:
I sacrifice pretty much all of my time for my career and there has to be a balance to it. What good is having success in your work but not being able to share it with someone? That’s not living to me. Having career success is important but having life success is even more important to me. Especially, now more than ever it’s a must.
I look ahead and I look forward to knowing who I am going to spend my life with. I can go rock the stage, but to know when I go home, my baby or my boo is waiting for me, that’s fun and that is the icing on the cake.
On Amar’e's engagement
People don’t know that Amar’e and I weren’t together before you started seeing the two of them together but I have to say, I’m probably more happy for her. I’m more happy for the woman because she’s been very, very, very patient. They’ve had a long relationship off-and-on for years and they have kids together and I think it’s important that if people can figure it out together with the mother and father, why not? So I wish them nothing but success on that. The crazy thing is, when I was like 19 years old, Amar’e actually courted me, just for a little bit, and it never turned into anything and we didn’t go far with it. We met again after my relationship that was before him, and he’s always been a nice guy. Always been very nice to me, always been very respectful and I had a very fun experience. You know, you meet people along the way for a reason and I felt like he and I met for a reason, and we had fun in our experience and there is nothing hard about it.
I’m honestly wishing for him to figure things out the right way in his life. It’s something so positive that came from that, so none of it is any of that funkiness. Everything happens for a reason and I’m wishing him luck. I really am. I mean that from my heart. Who is meant for me will be for me. It ain’t even that serious. No heaviness over here.
On what 50 Cent is like as a person, outside of his online and rap persona
To be quite honest with you, saying that he was my best friend at some point, he is a very, very smart guy. He is very real and sincerely what he is. Like, it’s not a joke. We are not making up what we are in reference to how he is and he is a very family oriented person, all about family.
On the most memorable moment in her career
I don’t know why I want to say winning a Grammy but I feel like it’s not my most memorable moment but it came to mind. It’s one of my most memorable moments. I didn’t appreciate that moment as much as I do now, looking back. Time went on and now I’m like, moments like that, thinking back on it, really makes me feel the need to live my life and appreciate the things that happen to me when they happen.
On what she’d like for her legacy to be
On the entertainment side of it all, I would hope to go down as a great performer. It’s my mission to make a mark in that way. Business wise, in addition to entertainment, I hope to build an empire and build a brand that’s really strong and be able to last even when I’m not doing anything. Eternal success is very important.
I hope to inspire others, and for people to know that dreams are really real. I wasn’t raised in this. Every mistake and every performance has pretty much happened in front of the world. I didn’t grow up singing in church but I had a dream. I kid you not, as soon as I put my mind to it and said this is what I wanted to do, I wrote it down on paper and everything manifested. Everything fell into place. I feel like my experience can encourage anyone to know that no matter what time, or when you figure out what you want to do, its possible. So, I hope to inspire.
