After it was announced that Ciara will be hosting the 2019 American Music Awards, she took to Instagram to share a celebratory boomerang of herself rockin’ a bikini, and she looks amazing.

“Today’s mood,” the 34-year-old captioned the post shared on Thursday, November 14. “We’re gonna have so much fun at the @AMAs! Your Host CC! Can’t wait.” Neither can we! It’s hard to believe Ciara has two children, and fans seem to agree. “Two kids where??? Come on body! Can’t wait to watch you host,” commented one person. “Mother of two what? Damn, girl!” wrote another fan. The singer works hard to maintain her figure — that’s for sure.

A few hours earlier, the “1, 2 Step” crooner tweeted her excitement over hosting the AMAs for the first time. In 2018, she gave a killer performance with Missy Elliot. Clearly, this year she ~leveled up~ now that she will be running the show herself.

Whenever she’s on stage, the pop star exudes confidence. However, there are times she has felt insecure. Thankfully, though, she’s learned to accept herself for who she is. Like many, wearing makeup makes Ciara feel good about herself, but now, she feels equally as good rockin’ a bare face. “I think it’s the idea of you wear the makeup, the makeup doesn’t wear you,” she confessed during the Beautycon Festival in August. “And I had to really grab that idea. I kind of figured it out a little bit later in life.”

The mom of two says it’s important to feel comfortable in your own skin regardless of what you look like. “I love getting glammed up and I liked who I was with the makeup. I like getting my makeup done … I can’t lie,” the brunette beauty divulged. “I wish I could wake up every day and get my makeup done but that’s not realistic. For me, I got to start feeling good about who I am before any brush is painted on my face.”

She continued, “I’ve got to feel good about me, so I’m empowered because of that … I can be stripped down at home and extensionless and feel like I’m still fly, I’m still cute. That’s the attitude you want to have and I had to work on that to be very honest.” We completely agree. You go, girl!
