Life Story

Ciara Princess Harris was born on October 25, 1985 in Austin, Texas. She is professionally known as Ciara. She grew up on army bases in Germany, New York, Utah, California, Arizona, and Nevada, since her father was in the United States Army. During her teens, Ciara and her family settled in Atlanta. She has said that watching Destiny's Child perform on a television program while staying home from school inspired her to pursue a career in music. This is good, since she was already skipping her education to begin with. Ciara joined a girl group called "Hearsay" and worked on her song writing. The group recorded demos, but began to have differences (aka, cat fights). Eventually, she left the group, got a publishing deal, and found a "musical soulmate" when she met producer Jazze Pha. Your pronunciation of the name is as good as ours. In 2003 she was signed by LaFace Records executive L.A. Reid with the help of Jazze Pha. She immediately began production on her debut album.

She made her debut in the summer of 2004 with the Billboard number-one single "Goodies". The album Goodies was released the fourth quarter of 2004 and first quarter of 2005. It made enough quarters to add up to over 2.6 million copies sold in the US five million worldwide Ciara started 2006 by winning her first Grammy Award for Missy Elliott's "Lose Control". The following May, she made acting debut in the MTV Films production All You've Got, also starring Efren Ramirez (aka, the Vote for Pedro guy). In the summer of 2006, Ciara completed her second album, after the release of the Step Up soundtrack single "Get Up" featuring Chamillionaire. It became the second European single in the summer 2007, apart from the UK, where the song was released twice as a download-only single, once in 2006 and again in 2007.

She will support fellow pop singer Rihanna on the UK leg of the "Good Girl Gone Bad" Tour. Ciara is also starring with Patti LaBelle in the upcoming film Mama, I Want To Sing!, in which someone apparently tells their mother that they want to express themselves with music coming from their vocal chords.
