Ciara brought the moves and some sexiness during her performance of “Got Me Good” on “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” CiCi worked up a sweat with her troupe of dancers as she commanded the stage with the Rodney Jerkins-produced single off her upcoming album One Woman Army, due early next year.
The performance was taped during her appearance in October, but was only posted now on Jimmy Kimmel’s official YouTube channel.
If you missed her performance of “Sorry,” you can watch it here.
I agree…and with minimal support (dancers, stage acrobatics, back track) 99% of the time she’s singing live while doing all this…the avg consumer is dumb as bricks so her talent goes unnoticed.
Y’all can’t say she’s not the best performer our generation . Her vocals hve improved by far when she perform cause usually she be tlkn the lyrics but her talent when show one of these days . When y’all ready for real talent . She could of gave a lazy performance but that’s not ci . Proud of her .. Don’t judge ci neither cause its like she started frm scratch cause jive still hve a hold of billboard and radio stations for not playing her music …
I like Ciara and I was surprised at this performance. It was REALLY good vocally! She always puts on a show but the vocals are just so-so for me. This one was right on the money. I just hate that she doesn’t promote as much as she could. This song always makes me want to dance when I hear it… the problem is, I don’t hear it often. And thus, I forget about it! She needs to be BLAZING promotions left and right! She killed promotions for Basic Instinct but the album was garbage. She needs a new PR team because she needs to promote like she’s a new artist because TBH she really is kinda starting over. I don’t know why it’s so hard for her to catch a flame in the R&B circuit but I hope her team gets it together before the album drops…
This was a good performance but she was not singing. She sung the live beforehand, and she just simply mimed to the per recorded vocals. That’s why it sounds so natural. Have a little perception people.
@Swag King Cold, your are correct. Ive watched ciara perform many many times and i can tell u this is NOT live. What they is record the vocals for the performance during rehearsal with minimal movement and dancing so it sounds good and just play it over during the actual performance. So it does song live.
@Swag King Cold, lmao i was there, that was not pre recorded to be honest she had to perform that song twice so i kno this shit was 100% live… sit down :]
@SHAWTY, industry is not dirty. Ppl just dont care for the track, if they did they would pull out there debit cards no matter how dirty the industry is
personally @shawty ive come 2 this conclusion that 50cent is behind her not winning i swear once she came out with Cant Leave Em Alone everything started goin bad i swear like that was tha 1st single 2 disappear quickly off tha charts 12 weeks… it peaked @40 in tha 11th week tha… 12th it was 92 unusual …it has nothing 2 do with Rihanna she wasnt winnning then(as much as i dont dig ri i feel like B,Ci,A.keys and a bunch of other ppl wanted 2 take breaks n ri came in n stomp a lane 4 herself) but back 2 Ci ill bet my last dollar 50 blackballed her 50 is known 2 be shady(i feel like he was in cohoots with philana)(i e that keri diss philana’s name written all over it) but with talent like ciara’s u cant keep her down thats why everytime they kick her down she gets stronger and stronger its like she has been giving me her aol concert vibes with every performance lately…..remember ppl love 2 tryn in figure her out n all she keeps doin is making it harder for ppl 2 put her in a box…..Resilient=Ciara
@swagkingcold ppl like who kno nothing about performing that is all her live n not no damn track…she is singin that chorus tha entire time no1 backing her wth r u talking about? using a backing track2 make it sound dynamic is not lip-synching …put it this way either u sing live or let tha track sing 4 u there is no in between there no way she can be or any1 for that matter can use pre-recorded vocals n be shouting…talking…ad-libN it dont work like that my friend trust me i sing so i truly kno this
ciara is A TERRIFIC DANCER, best female dancer in the industry by far HOWEVER her vocals have not been greater than mediocre at any point in her career. Yes she has improved but if you hear the songs she’s singing, they’re not that vocally challenging or different for her. Her fans send all this praise towards all the damn time but come time to buy an album SHE FLOPS….HARD!
but they’re quick to blame it on the industry…….you dont flop twice and it be the industry’s fault both times.
go open a dance school!
and give up the music! Sorry flopped, Got me Good flop as well. This hoe ain’t going NOWHERE in the music industry.
HAS BEE, open a dance school!
you’re a good dancer, while you teach people how to dance, Riri will be in charge of running Billboard charts and selling out arenas across the world!
Ciara needs NEW songs!!! All these songs shes coming out with sound so 2005. Her performance was a 10!! She’s a way better performer than Rihanna. Her songs are whats holding her back. Her imaging could be a little updated as well.
@anonymous, Oh and Im sorry ^, I just wanted to apologize for comparing her performance abilities to Rihanna. Obviously they’re not even in the same lane on that one. :-/
Ciara is a great performer and just a great artist overall. She is so passionate about her craft and it really shows. I hope she finds a way to get back on top again because she deserves it 100%!
@Swag King Cold she was singing live. she always does. just because she wasnt sounding a mess or running out of breath doesnt mean she lip synced. Ciara, Beyonce and Janet are the best at singing and dancing live period!
This Was Live ‘ the chorus was playback ‘ but evryone does that . Her voice wasn’t cracking or anything while doing all that dancing . Thats talent . She might not sale . But she already achieved shxtt ‘ soo it don’t matter . Talent doesn’t always sale . But it always goes noticed !
ENUF CIARA WITH THE LEATHER OUTFITS N COMBAT BOOT DANCIN….UR FINISHED SORRY…BEAUTIFUL GURL…HEY WHY DONT YOU TRY OUT FOR THE VOICE ON SOMETHIN….N TO THE GUY TALKIN ABOUT THE GREATEST PERFORMER OF OUR GENERATION….WHERE THE HELL TO U LIVE!!!!!
FIRST OF ALL…..JANET CANT SING SHE JUST IS THE SISTER OF MICHAEL JACKSON. SHE WAS A GREAT PERFORMER, BUT CUD NEVER REALLY SING…CIARA USED TO ALWAYS LIP SYNC CUZ SHE WAS TOO BUSY GYRATING HER CROTCH. TOO GET HER LITTLE VOICE OUT. SHE DID SOUND BETTER, BUT BEYONCE IS THE BEST PERFORMER SINCE SHE SINGS LIVE AND DANCES TO EVERY SONG SHE DOES ON STAGE!
Its not the kind of dance of Beyonce for those who claim that Beyoncé can’t dance like that. this dance is too manly for queen B. she likes sensuality. but she can do that dance, she is so versatile. Ciara is a very good dancer too in her way !
My baby CiCi kills this live!!! I really can’t get enough of this song!!! I hope she performs this more. Also, the music for Got Me Good I gotta say is probably her best video. One of the best songs/videos I’ve seen from anyone period. Can’t wait for the album!!!! :)
having a debate with some of u ppl is like having a fight with a retard #done
how u gonna say she sound good live but her voice is weak all in tha same sentence ill just say this…..tha day any of ur faves can get(all tha great singers)Patti Labelle.Aretha,Gladys,Dionne,Diana,Mj,Whitney,Mariah…even Stevie Wonder who went out of his way2 go 2 a radio station 2 see her mind u he hasnt been 2 radio in 20 yrs>>.Ur Doin a good job
all u ppl may ot be feeling her now but im telling u after her dry spout is over and tha blacklist turn red u can bet ur bottom dollar her comeback story will be epic…so go on n keep kickn this dog thats down n when she bite ull be mad
@nigg now i may let alot of chart talk and this n that go but r u sayin ciara only has 1 style of dancing? have u never seen promise…lsm..never? i just wanna kno
n 2 all u ppl that r into charts like me ull kno her songs r growing on radio n in tha last 2wks weeks she scored her 16th & 17th top 40 on HipHop/rnb charts ijs
ome more thing @boomboom when has any rihanna tour or part of her tour ever sold out…i mean her ticket sales be so bad she gotta reduce tha price(tell me im lying)…she did a 7day tour in smallllllll places…..come 2 think of it only time her tickets ever sold out is tha leg of her tour that Ciara was on google it…n whyll u google make sure u read tha reviews where they mention Ciara outshining ur Fav n potentially tha reason she only did that part of tha tour…ohh she outshined britney 2 ijs
