Petty? Ciara Refuses To Say Future’s Name!

Ciara may be headed towards wedded bliss with Russell Wilson, but that doesn’t mean she’s above shading her ex, Future.

During an appearance on Good Morning America today, CiCi, along with fellow Atlanta entertainer Ludacris, announced the Billboard Music Award nominees (both Ci and Luda have been tapped to host the show on May 22nd). But, while revealing the nominees in the “Top Rap Artist” category Ciara conveniently skipped over her baby daddy’s name.

Now, one of two things could’ve happened. One, maybe CiCi isn’t legally allowed to say Future’s name in public. Their break-up and subsequent child custody issues have been quite messy and at one point Ci had to get attorneys involved. Or two, the “Body Party” singer just didn’t want to utter the name that’s caused her so much pain. Either way, the true petty people here are the producers at GMA. Couldn’t they have just given that category to Ludacris?
