Ciara Princess Harris (born October 25, 1985) is a Grammy Award-winning American singer, songwriter, dancer, record producer, and occasional actress. She is the  "First Lady of Crunk & B". I am one of Ciara ‘s biggest fans because I can relate to her music and I am a dancer myself. I really enjoy her music and I can’t wait until her new CD comes out in December. Ciara is the best, new, and upcoming female artist because she has won a lot of awards for her singing ability, dancing skill, and her very detailed performances.

MTV has really shown their appreciation by letting her perform on their award shows.
	Ciara’s dancing skills are very advanced, and unique. Her-dancing skills are advanced because she has a different style than other artist. Ciara first started taking dance serious when she was a freshman in high school. When she started she skipped a lot of classes because she was ahead of everybody. When she was in dance class she took every kind of dance to ballet to hip- hop. Now, she and her dancers practice eight hours a day because she wants to make sure everything is perfect. Her dancing style is unique because she incorporates all different types of dance. Ciara is a multi- talented artist.
	When performing, Ciara says she is full of energy. Her performances are very detailed throughout the whole thing and they are fun to watch. Her performance hypnotizes the audience. On stage she has all the glits and glamour a performer like her should. When the host introduces her he and the crowd goes bananas. She leaves the stage with a signature move. When she leaves the stage everyone gives her a standing ovation. Once, her dancers said that they really enjoyed working with her because she always has a lot of ideas to make a dance move better. Her videos always are creative and she always dances in them.
	I can’t wait to see what she does next she trying to start are own clothing line out from scratch. Also, she’s coming out with a new CD in December, and I know it’s going to go double platinum. All in all, Ciara is the best, new, and upcoming female artist out there now because she has proved to herself and everyone else that she can put out hit after hit.
