CIARA TURNS PROFESSIONAL MODEL, UNVEILS FASHION LINE PLANS

R&B beauty CIARA has signed with a top modelling agency in a bid to further her career and broaden her appeal.


The 1, 2 Step singer, who is currently the face of rap mogul Jay-Z's Rocawear clothing line, is now a client of modelling agency Wilhelmina. Her new agents will focus on winning Ciara more contracts in the clothing and fragrance industries.

And Ciara - who is rumoured to be dating 50 Cent - is ecstatic about the new career path.

She says, "Modelling has always been one of my aspirations. But I was insecure about my height. I thought I was 5 foot 7 inches but I just found out that I'm 5 foot 8 inches so I'm really excited about that."

The star has also unveiled plans to launch her own fashion line with budget department store Steve and Barry's, following in the footsteps of actress Sarah Jessica Parker's Bitten range.

She adds, "I have a couple of cool things that I'm working on. The coolest thing about Steve and Barry's is they cater to everyday people. I won't say that my line will be like theirs, I want to stay true to who I am, but most importantly it has to be affordable."

Ciara's party train kept right on rolling Monday night, as the R&B star celebrated her 22nd birthday at South Beach's Cameo nightclub. The bash – complete with a sparkler-topped chocolate cake and a bottle of Cristal – came on top of previous fetes in Washington, D.C., Atlanta and New York (where she held two separate soirées). So what's with all the repeat performances?




"I missed my 21st birthday [because] I was on tour promoting my album," she told PEOPLE. "Since I didn't get to celebrate turning 21, I'm celebrating exiting 21."

And she's not done yet. The singer – who broke up with singer Bow Wow last year and recently denied rumors of romance with 50 Cent – jets to the Bahamas today for two more nights of revelry. "At first I said only five parties, but it somehow turned into seven!" she exclaimed.
