I don't see Scandalous in Promise but this thread is worth it for this clip and comment alone.
Been gone for a minute, now I'm back with the jump off

Well, to me, even the song sounds like a Prince one, but I don't really care and I love it anyway. The first thing I thought of when I saw this video was "Pleasure Principle", and I've always thought Ciara tries to emulate Aaliyah.
'Cause your friends don't dance, and if they don't dance... well, they're no friends of mine.

Wanda Sykes isn't an unattractive woman though....shrug but at the same time, I never noticed that they do sorta look alike...lol VC, go to hell lol


I STILL don't see the Aaliyah comparsion but I do see Janet..but I say...


who cares....she's cute. smile

As for Aaliyah, look at the opening of the Promise video and then check out this photoshoot from Aaliyah:


Aaaliyah used to wear hoodies and hooded coats all the time back in the early days.

yeah but that's what folks were wearing AND that what the kids are wearing now. shrug

I never got the aaliyah vibe as much as I was thinking Janet BUT to me Ciara is aight. I enjoy what she's doing and hell, we don't have Aaliyah anymore and Ciara does Janet better than Janet....so shrug

Thank god someone else will admit how great this song is. It's been stuck in my head for weeks, "I'll do homework..."

And as a gay man, when she and her pals are freaking on the wall in the video..I get all confused razz

Ciara did the lean just like Michael did in the Smooth Criminal video except MJ leans with the background gangsters and not a microphone.

Funny, but when I saw her do the mic thing, the first thing that came to my mind was the scene from "Breakin'" with Shabba Doo and the broom. Maybe its just me? shrug
