It turns out Ciara has a connection to the major league sports world in more than just one way.

“What the world!” Ciara exclaimed upon learning that the Yankees icon is her “DNA cousin” while sifting through her ancestry results with host Dr. Henry Louis Gates, Jr.
“You are kidding me!” the artist added. “Derek Jeter!”
