Lloyd has severed ties with songbird Ciara insisting fame has changed the good-natured “Goodies” singer he once knew. The crooner befriended CiCi when the two were attending the same Atlanta high school, but Lloyd admits he’s lost touch with Ciara in recent years because her ego has gotten the best of her.
“I don’t fuck with Hollywood bitches and she’s like one of the chicks that’s just changed along the way with the fame and the money and all of that. I don’t really get down with her anymore on some real shit. The truth hurts, but it will set you free. But I wish her all the best,” Lloyd reveals in the new issue of Hip Hop Weekly.
Steal style! We hear Rihanna is a little too through with what she perceives as Ciara’s constant swagger-jacking.
One of a kind Rihanna was taken aback when she — and the rest of the world discovered that Ciara, 23, had copied the Barbadian beauty’s hairstyle right down to the swept bangs across the forehead, spywitnesses reveal in the August 11 issue of Star Magazine.
“Ciara has always looked up to Rihanna, so this is not a big surprise,” says an insider. “They used to be friends, but Rihanna’s over her. She’d like Ciara to get her own look.”
Ciara’s new “haircut” has landed the singer in a lot of trouble with her ex-stylist.
Shirlena Allen insists the Atlanta-born hitmaker’s new hairdo is all thanks to a wig she has yet to return to her.
In a furious email to Bossip.com, Allen spits, “The wig used and work (done) on the photo shoot, she (Ciara) doesn’t even want to pay me for it. She’s a year behind all of it. I ask for the wig back a year ago, she says she cant find it (sic).”
Ciara posted her new look on her Twitter.com page earlier this month, and Allen is demanding credit for creating the look.
The stylista also complains that she is still awaiting payment for her work on the singer’s image a year ago.
She adds, “We spent hours trying to find this child a look and she still bites… Now she looks like a knock off.”
After performing a cover of Michael Jackson’s “Heal The World” at the 2009 BET Awards, Ciara got emotional as she recalled the late King of Pop’s profound influence on her career.
