The star is clearly unbothered by those who think she was showing too much skin.

Earlier this month, Ciara sparked controversy when she wore a stunning see-through dress over a black thong at the Vanity Fair Oscars After-Party. Her luxurious outfit quickly went viral and was met with varied responses on social media. Of course, loyal fans came through in defense of the recording artist. However, there was also a sizeable section of the public who believed the revealing look was inappropriate to wear as a wife and mother of three.

Ciara was quick to clap back at what she called “selective outrage.” She posted a video of herself wrapped in a white sheet from the neck down, writing, “POV: How I'm pulling up to Vanity Fair next year 😂." The Texas-born starlet has been closely watched by internet sleuths and critics recently, who constantly offer her unsolicited feedback on her outfits and body. Back in January, some users even speculated that she and Russell Wilson might be expecting another baby based on her poses in some social media posts.

Ciara Trolls Her Haters

Following the backlash from her Oscars outfit, Ciara posted another video responding to her haters, proving that she's reached a point in her career where she's no longer willing to let them get her down. Rather, she's learned how to laugh it off and move forward with absolute confidence. In the recent post, she's wearing a gray sweater dress with a matching gray shrug jacket. Her outfit was complete with silver-heeled boots, white gloves, black sunglasses, and an iconic bob. Throughout the clip, followers see the "Body Party" artist strutting along to Beyoncé's "CHURCH GIRL," a fan-favorite anthem from her RENAISSANCE album.

CiCi's post was met with varied responses. One user said, “A lot of folks in our community have bullied Ciara for years and she took it to the chin and kept it pushing. I'm glad she’s finally responding fr😤🔥.” Another person speculated on the 37-year-old's motive for uploading the content she does. “I’m convinced, it’s attention she wants,” they wrote earlier this weekend. Check out the industry icon's more modest slay below, and let us know if you thought her Oscars After-Party gown was too much in the comments.
