Correction people are sick of Beyonce not Ciara. Ciara just needs to release the news and put all those new singles out here in the states it’s doing well overseas. If Ciara was d-list I don’t think she would be hosting for Versace right now. She is just letting Keri keep her spot warm until she gets back. If keri is taking Ciara place then Ciara taking Beyonce.
