Hold On, Be Strong: Ciara Says She’s “In A More Clairvoyant Place…” Is “Focused” Following Split From Future

Guess this means she’s put Future in her past? Ciara Says She’s Happy Because Of Son And Career, In Spite Of Split From Future Ciara remains strong despite recent news that she called off her engagement with her son’s father Future. According to US Weekly reports : As Us Weekly exclusively revealed, Ciara has called it quits with Future — her fiance and father to her newborn son Future Zahir Wilburn — after learning of his infidelity. Before the news broke, the “I’m Out” singer spoke with Us on Tuesday, Aug. 12, about how her life has changed since welcoming her baby. “I’m in a much more clairvoyant place in my life,” Ciara, 28, told Us of motherhood. “So, I want to express that through my music.” The singer, who will appear on MTV’s House of Style for Degree Women, further mused. “I’m in an even more expressive place,” she said. “I think that when you become a mom… you don’t really worry about the small stuff. I’m just way more centered. It makes you focus even more on what your goals are in life. And I just feel a whole new spiritual energy that’s happening.” According to a source, Ciara was “devastated” after learning of her fiance’s betrayal. “He cheated on her,” the insider said. “Game Over.” Despite her recent trials, the R&B still counts her abundant blessings, especially as a proud mom to her 3-month-old baby. “My son has been the best thing that has happened in my life,” Ciara told Us of Future Zahir, born in May. “He has been amazing and he is truly heaven-sent. And so, I just feel all that love.” She added that parenthood has fueled her to be even more diligent about her career. “I want to be one of those moms and women that when I look back, I know that I always stayed focused,” she explained. “It’s about keeping your eyes on the prize. Before I had a child, I had goals. And I still have to accomplish those goals, but now that I have a child, I have more goals to accomplish. So I can’t waste time. I have to go for it.” She added, “It’s actually pushing me harder, and forward.” Indeed, Ciara has been hard at work in the studio with mega-producers like Dr. Luke and Mike Will (who’ve worked with the likes of Miley Cyrus, Rihanna, and Wiz Khalifa). “Now my concept is do more… times three.” She elaborated, “I’m all about making the best music possible… We’re just having fun, letting the music live. Just letting it be.” She added with a laugh: “I am not an old lady! Moms can be fresh, fly and young, and that’s the kind of mom I want to be, and there definitely can be a ‘Body Party Part 2.’ And 3, and 4 and 5.” (“Body Party” was her standout 2013 track co-produced and co-written by her ex, who helped produce much of her self-titled fifth studio album last year.) The multi-tasking songstress her state of mind has helped her hone in on her dreams. “It’s a good challenge,” she said of being a working mom. “I think it’s all mental. I’m mentally committed to doing the things I need to. It becomes a part of who you are and you just have to commit to it. You can’t lose focus of what your goal is.” “It’s a great thing,” she said of motherhood. “I wouldn’t trade it for the world, and I’m very, very happy.” Wonder if being in that “clairvoyant place” helped her figure out that Future was cheating on her?

Hate It Or Love It?!?! Claudia Jordan And Demetria McKinney Added As ‘B Characters’ On ‘The Real Housewives Of Atlanta’

Be prepared to see some new faces on season 7 of RHOA .. Claudia Jordan And Demetria McKinney Cast On “The Real Housewives Of Atlanta” Remember when Bravo introduced us to Mynique Smith and Natalie Macklin, wife of R&B singer Christopher Williams last year??? Well the producers are preparing to make a similar move on season 7 with  Demetria McKinney and Claudia Jordan who’ll be “B Characters”; people tested out on the show for possible permanent positions. The Daily Mail reports: Bravo is trying out two new women for their Real Housewives of Atlanta franchise. The TV network has cast actress/singer Demetria McKinney and model/host Claudia Jordan as what they call ‘B characters,’ MailOnline has learned. Both women will shoot scenes with the principal cast members — NeNe Leakes, Phaedra Parks, Kandi Burruss, Cynthia Bailey, Kenya Moore and Porsha Williams — and the network will wait to see how the audience responds to them before determining if they’ll make them full-time cast members. They don’t hail from Georgia and Claudia just moved to Atlanta from Los Angeles. Both are unmarried. Demetria is apparently well liked so much so that producers one day think she can NeNe’s top spot… McKinney, 32, is a single mom of a 12-year-old son and former star of Tyler Perry’s sitcom House of Payne. Born in Fort Walton Beach, Florida, McKinney has been in a long-term relationship with former Tyler Perry Studios executive Roger Bobb. ‘Bravo is really high on her. She’s likeable, works well with the other ladies and is intriguing without contrived drama,’ a source close to the network tells MailOnline. ‘She has wealth, loves fashion and fine things, and is in a real relationship with a high-powered entertainment executive. Bravo thinks if NeNe leaves the show after this season she could be the perfect replacement.’ NeNe’s contract – worth a coll $1m -is up after this season and she’s not expected to renew. She has a development deal for a talk show with Debmar-Mercury and wants to focus on acting. And as for Claudia… Jordan, 41, is a former The Price is Right and Deal or No Deal model who recently moved to Atlanta to co-host the Rickey Smiley Morning Show syndicated radio program. She doesn’t have children and is not in a serious relationship. Most recently, the Providence, Rhode Island-bred host appeared on Donald Trump’s “Celebrity Apprentice All Stars” where she had a very ugly spat with reality TV vixen Omarosa Manigault. ‘Claudia desperately wants to be on this show despite that fact that she doesn’t remotely fit the Housewives’ format, the source explained. ‘She came on the show as a friend of Kenya’s but hasn’t meshed that well with the others. What do YOU think about your two newest characters on the program???? Check out more flicks of Claudia and Demetria after the flip.
