Fans upset by BET ban of Ciara's music video
 testing captions Have you seen the video for Ciara’s new single “Ride” on BET? Actually, no one has. The R&B singer responded to HipHollywood.com about rumors the music video channel had banned the video because it’s too racy. In it, the athletic songstress appears scantily clad and gyrating while singing lyrics such as “They love the way I ride it.” The video also features the rapper Ludacris. Ciara confirmed to HipHollywood.com that BET is not showing her video, and offered a solution. “If there’s a way to edit a version for [BET] I would definitely do it,” she said. “My fans have actually given me a lot of support.” Fans have gone so far as to launch a “twitition” calling for BET to reverse the ban on the video. “We have been recently notified that Ciara's new Music Video "Ride" is not being showed on B.E.T because it's too sexual,” says a statement on the fan site Forever Ciara. (Spelling and punctuation are as they appear in the post.) “Note that they play Trey Songz "Invented Sex" [where he is having sex with a woman in the video] Trey Songz "Neighbors Know My Name" [Having sex DIFFERENT woman].” “I think that B.E.T is over analyzing this or is just being disrespectful to Ciara,” the statement continues. “MTV and VH1 is playing "Ride" and so are other stations. What are you B.E.T going to do about this because as a fan and Representative of Ciara you are being UNFAIR!” Fans are then directed to the Twitter page petition. BET reportedly earlier banned a video by artist Teairra Mari for being too provocative. In the past, the channel has also been criticized for the sexual nature of some rap videos. The network did not respond to requests from CNN for comment.

Thanks for the suggestions about credit repair on this blog. The things i would tell people is to give up the mentality that they can buy right now and pay later. Being a society all of us tend to repeat this for many things. This includes trips, furniture, and items we really want to have. However, you need to separate one's wants out of the needs. While you're working to fix your credit score you have to make some trade-offs. For example you are able to shop online to economize or you can click on second hand retailers instead of pricey department stores regarding clothing.

ciara,i love you
it's funny reading these comments about BET...
"Mann Ciara you do you BET and nothing but some double standard network thats owned by some white folks hatin on ya girl, kepp feeding the streets we going to hold you down..."
"i think they were not wrong for banning ciaras video dat video is so triflan and for dat ciara seems like a hoe........ come on now 'he likes the way i ride it' what he like you riding.......... NUN BUT A HOE"
it's a sterotyper's paradise lol
OH MY GOODNESS!!! THIS WAS WWWWWWWWWWWWWWWAY OVER THE TOP! !!I AGREE, BET SHOULDA BANNED IT!!! COME ON, PEOPLE!!! WHATEVER HAPPENED TO "LIMITS"?????
Now BET wants to ban obscene videos!!!!!
I am glad they are finally taking a stand against videos that are not fit for children. However, I don't believe that Ciara's video is the ONLY video that should be banned. If you are going to ban A video, then you certainly need to take a look at the playlist and ban ALL videos accordingly.
Ok, just watched this video. Ciara has danced like this since day 1!! Besides, this video is no worse than Beyonce's videos!
What the hell is BET?
Kudos to BET for not airiing the video. Nothing quality on BET anyway. As an educated Black 30 yr old female i find the programming offensive.
No one watches BET for videos anymore. I watch VH1 Soul or MTV2. They show better video choices.
I can't believe how the people who post to a BET story are so illiterate. Its very telling of the audience. All there is to be said is that if BET won't play it then there must be something wrong with it. Certainly a network that actually lets Michael Vick have a show has the lowest moral standards in the US.
Ok, I am mostly appalled by the awful GRAMMAR quoted word for word from her site and now appearing on CNN.com. What an embarrassment.

Ummm, I have seen the stuff they allow on BET (or even MTV for that matter), this doesn't sound like it's to scary.
BET IS A JOKE! CANT WAIT TILL TV ONE COMES AND KNOCK'S THERE ASS RIGHT OUT! CATHY HUGHES HURRY UP... WE NEED YOU.
BET, you have a nerve after all the other crap you put on your show and you ban CiCi. Where was your morality when you allowed BET after dark. What about that what it look like video, thats on the 106 countdown. Get a grip BET just cause the former owner sellout has started flapping her gums about how its embarrassing to watch. Play the video stop keeping a sister down.
i haven't seen the video yet...
before making any video, consider the consequence and the outcome of it, many people will watch it, including young kids...
parents can't always watch what their kids are doing, lets all be responsible...
peace...:)
I didn't think BET banned anything - I have flipped through channels and landed on BET and was mortified by what I saw. The video must be extremely bad if they are not showing it!
She has such a sweet voice like an angel.....
Yawn. zzzzZZZZZZ.
If there were more real musicians, this wouldn't have happened.
I just saw the video. I can't see what all the fuss is about.
They're a really contradicting network. Her video should not have been "banned'.
smh.
BET IS WHACK..SMH THEY HAD TO USE MICHAEL JACKSON TRIBUTE FOR RATINGS LAST YEAR AT BET AWARDS IT WAS A COMPLETE UTTER MESS
Doesn't BET stand for BLACK ENTERTAINMENT TELEVISION?
And isn't Ciara a BLACK ENTERTAINER,here to ENTERTAIN?
BET really needs to GET IT TOGETHER.
All the other stations seem to have NO problem playing it,so I don't see the big deal.
That whole station is falling apart.SMH.
FORGET BET. LET'S GO FOR MTV AND VH1!!!!!! =))))
(later they will just regret their ratings lmao)
smh BET...
BET in general is dumb....where is the WET?
I LOVE CIARA AND BET IS TOTALLY WRONG FOR BANNING THE "RIDE" MUSIC VIDEO! ITS IS THE HOTTEST VIDEO OUT NOW AND CIARA SHOWCASES HER GIFT OF DANCING IN THE VIDEO THAT ALREADY OVER 4 MILLION+ PEOPLE ON VEVO HAVE WATCHED AND ENJOYED EVERY SECOND IF BET CHOOSES NOT TO PLAY IT THEN IT IS BET'S LOSS!
BET is TRASH!!! Why are they trying to take the moral high ground now?!? The problem is artists like Ciara, and others are why some people tune into BET and others tune into TV ONE. Too late, BET...you should have taken a stand against your garbage programming YEARS AGO!
Mann Ciara you do you BET and nothing but some double standard network thats owned by some white folks hatin on ya girl, kepp feeding the streets we going to hold you down...
CIARA go head with ya badd self.... BET needs to let your perform on the awards .... LET em no how you get down
This is awsome Ciara is too GOOOD, its crazy how this network is holding up double standards when they have shows such as "BLACK AND BEAUTIFUL" to embrace black women but want play a BLACK WOMENS MUSIC.. Then again you let men display girls butt, with a ting down the middle, or men saying how they get this and that ho...
^^^ you're probably the stunt double for precious...now go rent a life since you're broke and can't afford one!
Bet is lame
BET are u 4real? lol. wow... so BIAS
WHY B MAD HE-ERROR STANS THE TRANNY RIDE IS NOW CLOSE AND BET DOESNT USE HER!
What!!!!!!!!!!! Is Bet serious?
BET is so bias it's unfunny.
the video isnt anything worse than some of the material BET has played in the past or currently. I think this is about Ciara being a female. If it was Trey songz or Chris brown, there would be no problem
BET is a joke. Ever since the new owner took over it's been nothing but a mess; Debra Lee go kick rocks with your pork belly looking neck! thanks.
Thats Right Them MOFO's! They Can Damn Play Any Other Music Video But Can't Play Cisus! BET=FLOP!
Why are they upset? They have "The Bieb". What more could they ask for.
