Ciara and Future's breakup was quite messy last year and it looks like things are still pretty shaky between the ex-lovers. There's a new report that says the Atlanta-based rapper is actually using his ex-fiance to help boost his album sales.

According to Page Six on Thursday, Future just can't stop talking about Ciara whenever he does interviews to help promote his latest studio offering, DS2.

A source close to the rapper tells the site, "It's definitely a part of the plan. When they split up, everyone hated him because he cheated. He's been painting her as this diva and villain to make himself look better and to take the heat off of him cheating."

And even though Future has no problem name-dropping his baby mama everywhere he goes, apparently Ciara herself isn't even paying attention.

An insider close to the singer dished, "She's not even thinking about him. She's focused on her child and providing as a single mother."

And just for comparison's sake, it looks like Future might be doing a bit better when it comes to winning album sales. Ciara's latest album titled Jackie sold a dismal 19,000 copies in its first week while Future's album is projected to sell well over 150,000.
