Ciara‘s dream post took a surprising turn on March 8, after her followers mentioned Russell Wilson’s reported trade.

In the Instagram post, Ciara shared various images and clips of herself as she commemorated International Women’s Day. International Women’s Day, which is annually observed on March 8, is a global day of recognition to celebrate women’s achievements. 

In the caption, the “Level Up” vocalist recounted how far she’s come in her career. She said, “I’ll never stop dreaming! Never stop grinding! Never stop believing! I’m constantly reminded of the inner power we possess as Women.”

She continued, “There’s absolutely nothing we can’t do. It’s a blessing when I think about where I came from and how far I’ve come.No better feeling than creating music, and building brands I love. Doing all the things I dreamt of as a little girl.”

The mother of three concluded her statement by sending encouraging words to her female followers. She wrote, “Never walk into a room thinking you’re limited by your gender. Envision what you want and go get it! No Dream is too big! Why Not You?!”

As Ciara’s fans viewed her upload, many veered their attention from the star’s original message and began flooding her comments section with remarks about Denver. The said individuals expressed how excited they were to possibly be welcoming Ciara and her family to the Mile High City.

“New queen of Denver!”

“More excited to have you in Denver than your hubs, and that’s wild because I couldn’t be MORE excited to have him join our team!!!! Congrats to you and the fam and welcome to DENVER!”

“Welcome to Denver!”

“Can’t wait to have you and @dangerusswilson in Denver!!!!”

“Not me searching for the Denver excitement in this post.”

On March 9, one day following trade reports regarding Wilson, the football star took to his official Twitter to announce he was leaving the Seattle Seahawks. He wrote, “SEATTLE, I Love You. Forever Grateful. #3.”

Still independent.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

The wider picture isn't any steadier. Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under, it's rarely the ones built to center a Black perspective from the ground up that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
