R&B singer Ciara is serious–she’s now a professional model with modeling agency Wilhemia while also planning a signature fashion line with Steve & Barry’s.
In a bid to diversify her appeal as well as advance her career, the ‘Promise’ singer will likely be posing for clothing and perfumes and design her own fashion apparel via Steve & Barry’s.
“Modeling has always been one of my aspirations,” says Ciara. “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.” Ciara is currently engaged in print campaigns for Jay Z’s Rocawear line.
The “1, 2 Step” singer has also unveiled plans to launch her own fashion line in the footsteps of actress Sarah Jessica Parker’s Bitten range.
“I have a couple of cool things that I’m working on,” she said about her fashion line. “The coolest thing about Steve & 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, 22, whose “Fantasy Ride” breaks this September, is also appearing in the film “Mama I Want To Sing,” co-starring Lynn Whitfield and Patti LaBelle, due for a release this year.

The celebrity circuit is rife with highly plausible rumors that Kevin Federline will be the new face of Los Angeles-based Christopher Brian denim collection.
Britney Spears’ rapper-model-TV star-professional wrestler ex-husband Kevin Federline, 30, has apparently been offered a seven-figure deal to promote the Chris Brian line by music producer Chris Stokes.
“We feel Kevin would be a great model for the line,” the brand co-owner told the In Touch magazine.
Yeah, right. Then again, isn’t he actually a ‘great model’ for a lot of other things as well? Who won the model ‘Father of the Year’ lately? Huh?

Supermodel Christy Turlington continues to grow from strength to strength, starting from representing Chanel’s East-West Bag earlier this year to being the face of Escada’s Fall/Winter 2008 collections advertising.
“Christy as a ‘classic supermodel’ is trans-generational and, therefore, meaningful to many women of all ages. Escada is also trans-generational and therefore Christy is a perfect match for our campaign,” said Jean-Marc Loubier, CEO of Escada. “Escadais currently building the character of the brand and we needed someone whose face would not merely be a façade for Escada but rather also someone with a personality matching that which we wish to communicate to the customer.”
Turlington, 39, while being a superlative model, is also a successful businesswoman, owning two barnds — Sundari, her Ayurvedic beauty range and Nuala, her yoga clothing range.

So what if she was dumped by the eternal heartbreaker George Clooney? Within a month of their break-up, Sarah Larson is set to become the face of Christian Audigier’s new line of couture dresses.
“She is a fresh, elegant and classy girl. I saw her on a red carpet and liked her style and European look,” Audigier told People magazine.
The former cocktail waitress has revealed that she’d like to develop that passion into designing her own red-carpet range.
Meanwhile, Larson’s agent Kenya Knight said, “Sarah was picked by Christian Audigier because she looks fabulous in everything she wears.”
Now, how about Sarah looking fabulous in everything she does NOT wear? The celebrity scene is abuzz with rumors that Sarah will be posing nude for Playboy.
UPDATE
The quote about Armani dresses that Larson allegedly made is fake, according to a notice I received from Ms Kenya Knight of Nous Model Management. With due respect, the quote has been removed from this post.
The error is deeply regretted.

“I’m blessed and grateful to be back at YSL,” was what Naomi Campbell had to say when she was unveiled as the new face of French fashion house Yves Saint Laurent.
Well guys, I can say this story is not coming at a good time especially when Mr Yves Saint Laurent died yesterday at the age of 71 (1936-2008). Then again, I’m blogging the news because what other better way to pay tribute to YSL, who defined women’s fashion in the 20th century.
Campbell, 38, told The Mail last Sunday: “I’m blessed and grateful to be working with YSL again – a house that gave me a start in my career.” The YSL deal is rumored to be worth a cool $400,000 to Campbell.
“Naomi shot the latest campaign in the label’s studio on Avenue George V in Paris during March,” said sources. “The advert has a similar feel to the recent ad Kate Moss did for YSL. It has a very arty feel and Naomi proves she can still look as stunning as ever.”
