‘It Don’t Take Much for Him’: Ciara Teases Russell Wilson with Her ‘Thickness’ In New Video as Fans Warn Her About Getting Pregnant Again

Ciara’s recent posts got her followers running up to her comment section.

The singer, who is currently on tour with Missy Elliott, Timbaland, and Busta Rhymes, is staying busy on Instagram after doing some promo for her newly released song “Run It Up” with Florida artist Bossman DLow.

On Monday, Aug 12, the “Goodies” artist dropped a lyric video showing behind-the-scenes footage of her on tour, dancing with background dancers, and even some shots of her from the crowd dancing on stage.

But that’s not all. The 38-year-old posted another video the next day doing her From the Block performance of the song. From the Block is a series where artists, both rising and established, perform a song on a hanging retro mic in an outdoor environment. In true Ciara fashion, she not only sang but also had choreography prepared with background dancers dancing behind her. 

Fans seemed very supportive of the “How We Roll” artist, including many zooming in on her curvaceous body.

One person commended her for her evolution as a woman, writing, “CiCi been THAT girl but damnnnn the woman she is becoming is like fine ass wine!!! Better with experience and wisdom.  we love you ciara.” 

Others couldn’t help but mention her husband Russell Wilson. A second person joked about how the Pittsburgh Steelers player already can’t get enough of his wife saying, “Don’t do that why you tryna kill Russ y’all already know it clearly don’t take much for him.” 

Ciara shares three children with Wilson. The couple, who have been married for eight years, have two daughters, Sienna and Amora, and one son, Win. Together they also raise Ciara’s eldest son, Future, whom she had in a previous relationship with rap artist Future.

The mother of four gave birth to her youngest daughter Amora eight months ago, and since CiCi welcomed her fans have noticed a swelling change in the singer’s cheeks. 

Ciara even acknowledged her recent weight gain, which fans praise, and her man’s reaction to it in her “Run It Up” song. In the first verse of the bass thumping single where she’s not only sings but raps she says, “Got a little thicker, he gripping the waist.”

A fan who watched and listened to the lyric video cheered Ciara on saying, “She said “got a lil thick” babyyyy thats a whole lotta thickness you gained.”

It seemingly hasn’t been hard for Ciara to adjust to her new thick thighs, because, according to the “Can’t Leave ‘Em Alone” singer, it’s her husband that encourages her to embrace and love her figure.

She told “It Figures” last year that in regards to body confidence, “I give myself grace, and my honey, Russ, he loves my curves. So he celebrates that, which I love. So I don’t stress as much now, I think as I would have when I was younger.” 

Anyone who’s kept up with this family knows Wilson has never shied away from wanting more kids with Ciara and has even gotten on one knee on television to beg for more. So fans will just have to stand by to see if another baby announcement is on the way. 

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.
