AceShowbiz - Ciara is setting the record straight. The "Level Up" songstress has slammed publications for twisting and misquoting her comments about her past relationship with her former fiance Future.
Making use of her Instagram Story on Tuesday, November 15, the 37-year-old singer wrote, "You be trying to walk this way [finger pointing to the right emoji]. But sometimes social media be trying to have you walk that way [finger pointing to the left emoji]."
Ciara went on stressing, "Nothing worse than being misquoted. But that's life…," and concluding, "Click bait I tell ya." In a following Story, the "Get Up" singer warned her fans against false headlines. "Walk that way with me please," she wrote along with a bunch of finger pointing to the right emojis as well as smiling face with hearts and folded hands emojis.
Ciara's posts came after her interview with Women's Health made headlines. Some publications wrote in their headlines, "Ciara Reflects On 2014 Split From Future: 'It Was The Best Thing I Could Have Done' " and "Ciara Says Break-Up With Future 'Was The Best Thing I Could Have Done'.".
Meanwhile, in the candid conversation, Ciara was talking about self-love and putting more focus on herself. "I told myself I've got to figure out how to navigate in the next chapter of my life," she began. "All the things I was aspiring to have at that time, even thinking about love, I was like, it's going to happen when it's supposed to."
"But I can't love anybody to the best of my ability if I'm not loving on myself. I can't be the best mom if I'm not loving on myself," she shared. "So I put more focus on me, taking care of me. It was the best thing I could have done."
Ciara and Future were engaged briefly before ending their relationship in 2014. Cici quickly moved on following an ugly public split from Future to start dating NFL quarterback Russell Wilson after they met at a University of Wisconsin basketball game in early 2015. The couple got married a year later in 2016.
