Ciara has once and for all cleared up any issues that people might think she has with NBAathlete Amare Stoudemire. According to Ciara, there is no animosity.

"I have to say, Im probably more happy for her. Im more happy for the woman becauseshes been very, very, very patient. Theyve had a long relationship off-and-on for yearsand they have kids together and I think its important that if people can figure it outtogether with the mother and father, why not? So I wish them nothing but success onthat," says Ciara. "The crazy thing is, when I was like 19 years old, Amare actuallycourted me, just for a little bit, and it never turned into anything and we didnt go far withit. We met again after my relationship that was before him, and hes always been a niceguy."

With all of that said about Amare, Ciara is focused on balancing her career and love in thefuture. Admitting that it is important to have someone to share everything with, Ciarasays having a "baby or boo" is "icing on the cake."

"I sacrifice pretty much all of my time for my career and there has to be a balance to it.What good is having success in your work but not being able to share it with someone?Thats not living to me," Ciara shared with Necole Bitchie. "Having career success isimportant but having life success is even more important to me. Especially, now morethan ever its a must. I look ahead and I look forward to knowing who I am going tospend my life with. I can go rock the stage, but to know when I go home, my baby or myboo is waiting for me, thats fun and that is the icing on the cake."

As previously reported, Ciara is gearing up for the rel! ease of "One Woman Army," heranticipated debut with Epic Records.
