Who knew?

Kelly Rowland reveals one of Ciara’s hit singles, “Like A Boy” who originally meant for Kelly. During a recent interview with MNEK, Kelly admitted that she was mad at first- but she’s very happy for CiCi now.

“‘Like A Boy,’ that was Ciara‘s, was actually written for me,” she explains. “Yeah. And funny enough, she is honestly one of the closest things to me. We bonded over motherhood. I wonder if she knows that [the song was written for me]. I’ll make sure to call her after this” she says.

“But yeah, it was so funny. I found that out later and I was like, ‘Wait, what?’ The writers and producers told me and they were like, ‘Yeah, we wrote that in your session.’ I was like, ‘No, you didn’t.’ I was so mad. But now I’m happy for my girl.” The song was released in 2007 and is one of Ciara’s signature songs.
