Much of the conversation surrounding the Seattle Seahawks’ surprisingly slow start out of the gate didn’t have to do as much with the then-missing Kam Chancellor, but oddly Russell Wilson’s new girlfriend Ciara. There were stories about her ex-husband Future’s music being banned from practices and constant memes trolling the Super Bowl-winning QB, but for some strange reason, Ciara caught a handful of the blame because of a supposed “Ciara Curse.”
Well, to immediately shut down those rumors, the “Dance Like We’re Making Love” singer spoke with Rolling Stone to talk about exactly how she feels about the supernatural pox upon the Seahawks.
“You also realize when people say negative things about you [that] you’re still living your dream. When people say those types of comments, you know, that’s silly. It’s clearly silly… It’s happened to people in our world, it’s not a new thing when people say things – it comes with the territory,” she says. “I choose to focus on the positive and focus on the cool things that are truly happening. That’s how I live my life, and I have to say life is good. Clearly those things don’t make any sense.”
And she’s totally right, to be honest. Yes, the Seahawks stumbled out of the gate, and sports fans run on superstition, but there is a lot of season left, and they aren’t exactly out of the hunt. So, to blame any sort of poor performance on her is pretty much nonsense. Now, if Future’s Atlanta Falcons somehow toppled the Seahawks and actually won the Super Bowl, then we could talk about the other-worldly.
