‘Screaming at Russell’s Soul Glow’: Ciara and Husband Russell Wilson’s Pic Takes a Turn When Fans Troll his New ‘Do

The forever booed-up couple Ciara and Russell Wilson turned heads as they attended a Tom Ford fashion show on Feb. 7 in Los Angeles, but what fans noticed most was the NFL superstar’s tresses.

Wilson typically rocks his hair in its naturally curly state, but for this particular occasion his hair appeared to be blown out, pressed and curled! Overall, fans were here for photos of the happy couple, but, needless to say, Wilson did get trolled a bit over his ‘do.

“Okkk Russey giving Edward Scissor Hands Tease. πŸ’‡πŸΎβ€β™€οΈ”

“Who gave Mr. Wilson a silk press?? Cute couple πŸ€” πŸ˜‚”

“πŸ—£οΈπŸ—£οΈ πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ Screaming at Russell’s Soul Glow Hair”

“Russ on his fly boy sh!t”

Honestly, it can seem like dude can’t win for losing when it comes to Ciara’s legion of fans and their style standards. Judging by the caption β€” “Us” β€” and the couple’s overall public displays of affection, the “Body Party” singer could not be any more unfazed by the noise.

By the time the singer celebrates her 35th birthday in October, she will have welcomed the couple’s second baby. She and her husband announced their pregnancy in beach photos on Jan. 30. They’ve yet to share how far along she is, nor have they dropped hints at what the gender may be.

Fans who speculated she might be pregnant were thrilled to find out she was expecting her third child.

“Yasss!! Y’ALL BETTER BE FRUITFUL!!”

The couple welcomed their first child together, Sienna Princess Wilson, in 2016. The singer also has a son, Future Zahir Wilburn, with Atlanta rapper Future.

“Girl you are blessed beyond measure. He’s rare ❀️❀️❀️ love y’all both”

“πŸ”₯πŸ”₯πŸ”₯ Y’all look so good together! Beautiful couple! πŸ™ŒπŸ½πŸ™ŒπŸ½πŸ™ŒπŸ½” “

“‘US’ and that’s all you need. What a blessing C. So happy for you.”

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual β€” and so is the pressure on newsrooms to soften their coverage, stay quiet, or just disappear. Independent reporting, the kind that answers to readers instead of advertisers or political pressure, matters more in a moment like this, not less.

For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed independent and reader-funded. We have no corporate owner and no shareholders telling us what to cover or how to cover it. That independence is also our biggest vulnerability: nothing protects it except readers choosing to fund it directly.

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 in a moment like this, it's rarely the independent, reader-funded ones 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.
