Ciara covers Vibe Magazine....Nude


Check out Ciara in the latest issue of VIBE Magazine. Personally, I don't see this as being a good look for her, although she looks great. I see this as being cheap, tacky and very 'slutacious' for an artist of her caliber. Keyshia Cole, Ashanti or Rihanna would never do anything like this. Why she did it is beyond my imagination..?

John Legend Performs At Democratic National Convention

John Legend performed his new second single, "If You're Out There" at the Democratic National Convention in Denver. It's a very political and deep song which very much seems to relate to Obama's slogan in his campaign. The song features the Agape Choir and also, feel free to download the song at Barack Obama's website.
