Be aware of cyber-bullying danger, says bereaved dad By Paddy Clancy and Niall Murray Thursday, September 27, 2012 Ciara Pugsleys father has spoken for the first time about his daughters death following cyber-bullying. Jonathan Pugsley wants his 15-year-old daughters death last week to make other young people and parents aware of cyber-bullying. He appealed to young people to communicate with each other and their parents. Ciara, from Killargue, Co Leitrim, was found dead in woodlands near her home on Wednesday last week. Classmates at St Clares Comprehensive in Manor-hamilton later discovered that she had been bullied on a website, Ask.fm. Mr Pugsley said he wants young people to know that taking their own life "is not the right thing to do", "Just dont do this," he said. "Your family and your friends need you." Mr Pugsley said he never thought his chatty, confident daughter could be "vulnerable" to online bullying. He asked young friends to comm...

Ciara Talks Chelsea Handler & 50 Cent On Power 106

Image
Ciara was spotted fresh faced while making her way through LAX Airport earlier this week, just hours after she wrapped up an interview on Power 106. Earlier that day, she sat down with Big Boys Neighborhood to promote her upcoming album but Big Boy had other things on his agenda to talk about. He grilled her on her former relationship with 50 Cent and why they were no longer together. He also wanted to know a few key things like whether or not Chelsea Handler was the reason that she and 50 broke up and whether the story Chelsea told on Howard Stern about Ciara stalking 50 Cent had any truth. Back then, Chelsea said that 50 was playing both of them and pitting them against each other in a high school-type way, but Ciara says that she has no idea what Chelsea is talking about and would never fight over a dude. The conversation with Big Boy on 50 cent went a little like this: Ive always said we were like best friends. We were always best friends. [So you're not best friends anymore?]...
